After launching Young Money Radio recently on Beats 1, Lil Wayne has brought a wide range of special guests on for interviews including athletes, politicians and other artists including Toronto’s own Drake.
Wayne has received a lot of publicity for the new program, but his guest on Episode 3 took media coverage to a new level.
Hours before featuring Eminem on Young Money Radio, Lil Wayne took to social media to tease the conversation:
“Ready for some real GOAT 🐐 talk?! A convo wit me and Mr. Mathers. YoungMoneyRadio LIVE from my Miami studio on @applemusic.” – Lil Wayne
During the interview, Eminem showed loved to various people including Kendrick Lamar, Joyner Lucas, Big Sean, J. Cole, YBN Cordea, and others.
He also made a point of praising a Canadian artist he recently collaborated with, Toronto’s own Jessie Reyez. Both artists showed her love with Wayne referring to her as “crazy” and Em saying “I think she’s going to be huge.”
Canadian media platform 6ixBuzz posted about the shout-out on Instagram yesterday, and Reyez was quick to share her thoughts in the comments:
“The greats got my name in their mouths
If you a hater you can keep my dick in yourrr mouth”
Eminem is featured on Jessie Reyez’s latest project, Before Love Came to Kill Us, on the Tobias “Priest” Frelin, Eminem and Bizness Boi-produced “COFFIN.” And Reyez is featured twice on Eminem’s 2018 album, Kamikaze, including the S1 and Fred Ball-produced “Nice Guy” and IllaDaProducer-powered “Good Guy.”
Maybe we’ll see Wayne and Jessie on a track soon as well. One can only hope. You can check out “COFFIN” below along with “Nice Guy” and “Good Guy.”
