Lil_wayne_thank_you

Rapper Lil Wayne sent a youtube Thank You message to his fans for buying his album Tha Carter III. The album topped one million dollar copies for first week sales.  Congrats Weezy. We just noticed that poor Weezy is rambling in the video and doesn't look like he's kicked his syrup habit. Hopefully Lil Wayne will get some serious help for his drug addiction. Tha Carter III does have one controversy including a beef between the rapper and civil rights activist Al Sharpton who Lil Wayne refers to as "just another Don King on his track "Misunderstood." Watch the Daily Fix episode to learn more about the battle between the rapper and the reverend on the diss song "Misunderstood".

Al Sharpton & Lil Wayne Throw Insults At Each Other "Your A Just Another Don King"

  *Rev. Al Sharpton has responded to a track featured on Lil Wayne's new album "Tha Carter III" that calls him out as a fraud and opportunist.

On the track “Misunderstood,” Wayne spits: “You see, you are no MLK/ You are no Jesse Jackson/ You are nobody to me/ You’re just another Don King with a perm/ Just a little more political/ And that just means you a little more un-human/ Than us humans/ And now let me be human by saying/ F**k Al Sharpton and anyone like him.”

Sharpton's rep has responded to the verbal assault by dismissing Wayne as an MC who has nothing to offer.      

“While some of the rappers don’t like the fact that Rev. Sharpton has been leading marches against the degradation of women in music, a Gallup poll released last week revealed that Rev. Sharpton has a 50% approval rate among African-Americans. So why dignify a response to one rap artist who doesn’t even say anything substantive," the rep told Current TV's blog The Daily Fix. source
