4 Reasons Lil Wayne Is DEAD Wrong For His NY Comments…& 4 Reasons Why We Totally Feel Him [Shout To @OldManEbro!]

Earlier this week while talking to MTV in Las Vegas at the Magic Convention (he was unveiling his new shoe with Supra), Lil Wayne said that he “flat out” doesn’t like New York. He wasn’t all hyped up, he wasn’t saying it with extreme conviction and/or hatred…he just simply said he’s not a fan of the Big Apple. Myself being a NJ native…which by default pretty much makes me a New Yorker since I work there, hang there, date there, etc…didn’t think twice about it. Wayne’s personal opinion holds no bearing on my life. Birdman came out the next day to co-sign his “son’s” feelings, but he wasn’t really saying anything bad either. He just basically said whatever Wayne dislikes, I’ll dislike it too. That’s a loyalty thing, that’s not an F NYC thing. Those that know me are going to think I’m riding the Young Money bandwagon as I have great relationships with many of the roster, but this has NOTHING to do with that. To be fair, however, I’m going to break down exactly WHY Wayne was wrong for what he said, but also, why you should cut him some slack. Thank you to Hot 97 programming director Ebro for help with the songs! In…


5 Reasons Bow Wow Is Relevant…& 5 Reasons He Needs To Take A Seat Immediately

I’m going to #KeepIt100. Our guy Bow Wow needs to just sit back, reflect and perhaps take a break from Twitter for a while…and music. And let’s be clear, all you people that can’t read properly…these are the words and opinions of ME, MARISA MENDEZ. Not Funk Flex. And let’s also be clear…his is NOT hate. Bow’s cool. I have “Fresh Azimiz”, “Like You”, “My Name Is”, “Thank You” and even a couple others in my iPod! But he still needs to have a seat. Now that we have that squared away, please proceed to the “read more” button for my reasoning. Marisa Mendez
