Lil Wayne says he hasn’t eaten fast food in 20 years

Lil Wayne says he hasn’t eaten fast food in 20 years.

Lil Wayne is very much in a world of his own. Over the years, the self-proclaimed martian has proven that he exists in a tiny bubble where only he and ESPN exist. Perhaps, that’s a testament to his creativity and the focus he puts into his craft. The rapper’s known to clock in over numerous songs in the studio per day, which means that there’s more music we haven’t heard from Wayne than we have. This week, he unveiled his new single, “Kant Nobody” ft. DMX and Swizz Beatz which he said is among the “billion bangers” they have in the vault.

Following the song’s release, Lil Wayne made a rare appearance on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music radio show where he discussed his latest song, as well as the upcoming Tha Carter VI. “It’s Carter 6. I never even imagined. That didn’t even sound right years ago. I can’t believe we’re at Carter 6. My fans know I give my all. Go listen to my last feature and know it’s gonna be a thousand times better than that,” he told Zane Lowe. Additionally, Weezy provided some interesting insight into his daily routine, including his diet.

When you’re rich and famous, the idea becomes less appealing when you have a personal chef to cater to your cravings. Lil Wayne revealed to Zane Lowe that, for over 20 years, he’s had a personal chef working for him. “When I was 19 I moved to Miami and my mom is a chef and she was very happy for the move because New Orleans is crazy. One thing she really wanted me to do was get a personal chef,” he explained. 

“Man, who the hell is before me? Was the list including all hip-hop, like before and after as well?” he asked Lowe, who explained that Jay-Z was ranked No. 1, followed by Kendrick Lamar, Nas, 2Pac, Eminem, and The Notorious B.I.G.

“I will tell you that I am a motherfucking one,” said Wayne. “Everybody whose names you named, they also know I’m number one. Go ask ’em. They know what it is.”

Wayne also discussed with Lowe why he believes he’s hip-hop’s most versatile star.

“The last tour I got off was with Blink-182,” he said. “At the end of the day, I find myself at the country music awards and doing tours with Blink-182. There’s not a lot of rappers in this position who can say they’ve done that. I stand alone on that mountain.”
