On Friday (December 13), Complex released a recording of Wale threatening to knock members of its staff out. Today (December 16), Complex addressed criticism it has received due to the release of the recording.
“The decision to publish Wale’s irate phone call to a Complex Media editor last week was not made lightly,” Complex Senior Editor Rob Kenner writes. “In the 24 hours following the D.C. rapper’s Wednesday afternoon rant multiple meetings took place during which serious debate ensued amongst Complex’s music department and senior staff. Some felt that we should work to resolve the dispute behind the scenes. Leaving aside the particulars of which lists he made and which lists he missed this year, Wale is an important artist with a loyal following and—despite his mistaken belief that Complex editors harbor some sort of grudge against him—we recognize the value in maintaining a healthy working relationship with him and the rest of his MMG affiliates.
“Others, myself included, maintained that any time anyone threatens violence against any member of our staff, that threat must be taken seriously and addressed,” Kenner continues. “Our intention was not to retaliate or sensationalize but simply to document a credible threat against not just one reporter but our entire team—from accounting to ad sales, IT, HR, even college interns. Moreover, from a journalistic point of view, this was a legitimate story: a public figure making threats against anyone, let alone a major media company, and as such, it’s news.
“It was argued that publishing the call might exacerbate the situation,” Kenner adds. “So Complex senior staff finally settled on a fair and sensible course of action: reaching out to Wale’s label and management and offering him the chance to clarify his remarks in hopes of having, as Complex News correspondent Jinx put it, ‘a more constructive conversation.’ Complex’s offer was declined, leaving us no recourse but to post the audio.”
Kenner’s Mad Rappers: Wale, Complex and the History of Violence in Hip-Hop Journalism also addresses other instances where rappers have been upset with publications and media members.
Wale’s phone call included accusations of a Complex grudge against him.
“Do you think y’all being a responsible publication by continuously to fuckin’ like…do all that petty shit?” Wale says in a phone recording of the conversation, which can be heard below. “At this point, you know it’s got to be personal. You tellin’ me it’s not personal is like a bold face lie. To be omitted from every type of list that y’all do or be at the bottom of it or every type of way that y’all can omit me, y’all will.”
During the phone call, Wale said he felt disrespected by the publication.
“Fuck you, dog,” he says. “You know it’s disrespect. I swear to God I’ll come to that office and start knocking niggas the fuck out. Y’all wanna see some ghetto ignorant shit? That’s what y’all promote. That’s the only thing y’all promote from niggas.
“I’ll see y’all tomorrow,” Wale adds. “How about that? Get the security ready.”
Insanul Ahmed, the associate editor who was on the call with Wale, spoke with HipHopDX after the incident.
“Complex has no grudge against Wale or any other artist,” Ahmed said in an interview with DX. “Wale is an active, relevant artist and someone we have always covered and will continue to cover. He’s made many of our lists in the past. On a more personal note, I have advocated for his music many times in the office and outside. Funny thing is, Wale made this accusation before and back in 2011, I sat down with Wale and talked to him for several hours. I felt like we had worked out whatever issues it was back then.”

Like.. more than normal niggas usually is namsayin. This the type of dude who updates his own wikipedia page b.
WHY this nigga always beefin wit video models n retaliatin back at muthafuckas on twitter who only got like 27 followers tho? Why this nigga gotta make a youtube video eytime he gets his feelings hurt b? Cmon sonthat emotionally fragile shit aint whats poppin at all bruh bruh.
Quit typing like some ghetto piece of shit. You know damn well how to spell. Daddy’s going to get the belt if you keep this shit up son.
“In the end, the whole Wale incident seems to have worked out reasonably well for all concerned parties. Wale got his first headlines in months, sparking arguments among fans over the merits of The Gifted (not to mention Juicy Js remarkable Stay Trippy).”
Wale Lost. Complex is still sneak dissing him on the low saying he got his first news headlines in months LMAO
Wale just appeared on Saturday Night Live, he’s been touring with J. Cole, he doesn’t need daily headlines to stay relevant but his last headline was earlier last month when his single went Platinum.
“his single”
LOL
you mean the one that girl wrote for him that he got butthurt about when she signed to someone elses label? LOL cant blame a bitch for not wanting to sign your life away to Wale’s bitch ass
LOL @ a rapper appearing on Saturday Night Live but not getting to perform
they didnt want Wale estrogen anthems to put the audience to sleep and destroy their ratings….
^. The single that had his name on it for the publishing? Ignorant hateful wench, when was the last time a rapper wrote the f*ckin singers hook on a song?
it was her song before Wale heard it and added one of his poems
Remember when Wale’s boss Officer Rozay had DJ Vlad assaulted by his body guards at the Ozone awards for doing a story questing the former correctional officer’s street credentials?
LOL These MMG niggas is all bitches afraid of the truth getting out!
I saw Wale yesterday in a drug store with a basket full of Sanitary Pads Face Wipes and some funny colour Lipsticks looking real shady. Didn’t think it was him at first but he had a guy with him with a MMG top on.
Wale just realised that hip hop is dead, how in earth is Stay Trippy on the list and The Gifted not…
“We put together a list of our 50 favorite albumsthe best, according to our admittedly subjective tasteand our crime? Enjoying 50 other albums more than Wales. It should be noted that plenty of other notable artists with well received LPs, like Justin Timberlake, Prodigy, and even The Weeknd (who graced our cover), didn’t make the cut either. ”
Prodigy and Alchemist was better than both of them
I agree about Albert Einstein
Others questioned why Wale would single out Complex when several other organizations Rolling Stone, Spin, Noisey, the Grammys omitted him from their year-end honors as well. (In that sense, Wales outrage was strangely flattering.)
I would surmise that it’s an ongoing omission or issue because all the other entities you named have given Wale praise for his projects.
not for The Gifted
consensus all across the board is THe Gifted was underwhelming and extremely forgettable compared to everything else that was released in 2013
It’s just them hating as the reaction on hiphopdx has been mostly positive.
LOL where? I havent heard one mention of the giifted since it came out
I used to think Whale and Lupe were wrongfully stereotyped by there dreads and places of origin and that maybe they were level-headed, normal people. But it turns out that both of them are just as Ghetto as the next rapper to crawl out of their respective slums.
Let’s keep it a hundred.
If Complex was concerned about the threats they would have gone to the police, they leaked the convo/video to draw attention to their list which most people could care less about but upon the controversy actually read their list and added traffic to the their website. Is this still a story or do people really care that a rapper slated on some nerds?
^^ Complex rolls with Nas, they’re safe! lol
Nas been in the game (industry & streets) alot longer than Wale. I’m sure Nas has more connects.
?? Great sarcasm, a a staff of hippie writers with bifocals and pocket protesters rolling around Queens with Nas and Jungle.
Wu Tang used to beat up rap critics on a weekly basis and nobody even batted an eye but now in this fa9 loving society if you even scream at somebody all the bullied little beyatches scream foul.
Society has gotten soft and everybody sides with the geeks and girlyboys while the wolves and the bullies are the bad guys. If this was Marshall Mathers yelling at a critic everybody would be saying F*ck Complex.
soft like Wale
Complex needs to milk this story, i cant think of any other reason why people would be talking about Complex when this is the season of Beyonce, Bowl games Boxes with gifts in em.
Wale needs to milk this story, I cant think of any other reason why people would be talking about Wale when this is the season of Beyonce, Bowl games Boxes with gifts in em.
Wale dont eat of you typing his name on HipHopDX, he gets paid to perform his songs.
Wale is a pussy and Complex are pussys, 50 was the first genius to record conversations without the persons knowledge.
El-P was first bro. 1999 on a song called Linda Tripp. He destroyed Sole’s career with that track. Young Buck is at least still making music. No one knows where Sole went.
Which is againsn’t the law, genius.
Ok Stan I guess you never heard of the CIA and the FBI using wire taps decades ago?
Complex gets web traffic, Wale gets people to check out his album….the only losers are the people that will be discussing this tomorrow.
he should have put out a better album…and if youre gunna start knocking niggas the fuck out dont call them and tell them youre coming…wale wasnt gunna do shit
Wale aint never knocked 1 nigga out in his whole life.

Hopefully this cleared some shit up nahmean.
Aight peace.
Complex are trying to convince us that they made this shit public NOT to sentionalize it ?
“Our intention was not to retaliate or sensationalize but simply to document a credible threat against not just one reporter but our entire team”
Really ? Wale a credible threat ? to your entire team ?
Man they really think people are that dumb
Some people are that stupid and some people have so much hate inside them that you can convince them of something that incredulous and they will believe it just so they can have an excuse to hate.
They gave Wale the opportunity to explain himself and his bitch made actins and he declined so they published it
STFU Becky, they did it for publicity.
yeah anon1 is right. but i’m not surprised by complex or hip hop journalism in general.
Irrational hatred from bums and losers has never been more evident than when some dreg crawls out of the sewer and tells you that Wale didnt write the singing hook on his song “Bad” because we all know that rappers are supposed to sing their hooks.
Drake writes the hooks on his songs
Yeah because Drake is a yeasty vagina that sings his own hooks like a chick would.
she wrote the song bruh. wale added one of his poems over it.
I listen to rap for the rhymes, Wale wrote the rhymes who gives a phuck if Tiara Thomas wrote the non rap parts?
One stupid illiterate moron told me that EM’ didnt write Stan because Dido wrote the hook.
Tiara Thomas made that song, the melody and the hook. it was already her song before Wale got his hands on it
That is a crock of bull dung because we all know that Em wrote Rihannas hook and Wayne writes all the hooks and plays all the instruments which is why Cash Money are the #1 label.
Good joke.
MMG got the worst hair do’s in the rap game!! Ya dig
Please allow us to have discussions without the gay stuff.
but the only people who listen to Wale are females and homosexuals
I know how media gets, but I ain’t forget how Wale caught feelings over nahright & 2dopeboy commenters, who are both New Music Cartel members under the Complex Media umbrella.
He has a grudge too.
or when he caught feelings over some old white sports announcers from Canada not knowing who he was LOL
or when he caught feelings over the big Ghostfase blogger puttin him in the top 10 softest niggas in rap
WALE is WACK nigga stop biting off Pixar nigga.
nigga looks like a tatted up jar jar binks
“I listen to rap for the rhymes, Wale wrote the rhymes who gives a phuck if Tiara Thomas wrote the non rap parts?”
Thats why Drake is such a special rapper, he can write his hooks himself and doesnt need a nappy headed ho to write the hooks on his classic albums.
Yeah Stanley it takes a lot of testosterone to write a singsongy hook for a female to sing, I bet Drake ghostwrites hooks for all of YMCMb
Drake has been ghostwriting for Wale but people sweep this truth under the rug.
Who will win between The Kraken or Smaug or Wale?
Wale has a platinum single. Doesn’t matter if TIara Thomas appeared on it, Wale worked on the song himself. Never stole from anyone.
Doesn’t change the fact he’s soft
I done seen this ‘Wale’ faggot on that Elmos World shit
that song would have been a hit no matter who rapped over it.
A platinum single that he stole from Tiara Thomas.
he didnt steal it. i believe she was compensated for it but she did indeed write it
Complex = Culture Vultures / Hiphop for Suburban kids
That must be why Wale was so tight at Complex, his music is Hip Hop for suburban kids.
LOL you can diss complex all you want but for Wale to get so mad at them they must have some credibility in his eyes
Complex is so hit or miss. half their articles are good ideas, but the writing is terrible. its so manipulative, trying to get a rise for views. Sometimes its painfully obvious how little their writers know about what they’re talking about.
yeah right! they were gonna publish that shit no matter what. brought more hits to their stupid website
their website is massive and gets plenty of hits without exposing these bitch ass rappers for being sensitive
Wale.
Say it out loud. Dude’s whole career is corny, and he’s got a metrosexual ass stage name.
i call him whale cause wale lay sounds gay
This wack ass would fit in great with The Black Eyed Peas, he a three foota, bout to see it
Hahahahhaa fuck whale
Wale aint soft in the least bit, hes an African from DC that played ball and went to HBCUs.
…I know plenty of artists who could care less about the awards, accolades and critical acclaim, they are only in the rap game to wash drug money and hustle the game solely for monetary gain.
Wale takes his craft seriously and I respect his passion and the effort that he puts into his craft and while I dont condone his outbursts towards critics I appreciate an artist who wants to be on the best album list just as much as other rappers want to be on the Forbes list.
If Wale is wise he will use these perceived or genuine slights and use it as motivation to make music from his heart that his fans can love and enjoy and not allow critics to force him to lose his artistic integrity just to be on some frivolous list or handed some award.
Being black & playing ball doesn’t mean you aren’t soft, you mongoloid ass nigga. Wale soft as shit, he a fag straight up.
groupie love
” they are only in the rap game to wash drug money ”
like who nigga GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE BRUTHADEE
“Wale aint soft in the least bit, hes an African from DC that played ball and went to HBCUs”
So how exactly does that make him not soft? You’ve heard his songs… he one of the softest niggas in all of rap and hes more emotional than Drake! Drake would actually knock a nigga out but Wale wouldnt
LOL THAT NIGGA MADE A SONG CALLED BLACK GRAMMYS AND THE GRAMMYS SNUBBED HIS BITCH ASS ALBUM LOLOLOL
YOOO HE SAID WALE AINT SOFT CAUSE HES AFRICAN AND WENT TO SCHOOL AND PLAYED BALL LMAO
^^^LMAO I heard he got into a shoving match one game hes one hunned
i saw him run up on a 40 year old white basketball announcer from canada for not knowing who he was at a wizards/raptors game.
does that sound like some shit a soft nigga would do??
he beefs with video hoes like rosa acosta on twitter… a soft nigga would never do some shit like dat wale is gangsta to the core
real talk son these so called gangster rappers wouldnt have the balls to bitch and moan like wale does…real recognize real
Wale is following in his mentor Rozay’s footsteps by threatening those who in the media who say something you don’t like. These niggas need to get some thicker skin.
Ross got so mad when DJ Vlad questioned how real his street credentials were that had him assaulted. For Ross to get upset over that shit must mean that he really is a fraud and a liar cause if he was a real nigga that shit wouldnt have mattered to him cause he would know he the real deal!!
Complex must be pretty legit in the hip-hop world for Wale to take that list so seriously and risk his freedom and career on some violent threats cause they didnt like his album enough to make it top 50 of the year!!!
“Born in the District and raised by his Nigerian parents in suburban Maryland, Wale was said to have it all: He had attracted a local following by nodding to the go-go tradition, but also demonstrated significant hipster appeal by incorporating buzzy electronica and indie rock into his beats.”
So this cry baby ain’t even from DC he from Maryland? LOL hipster appeal
he’s from PG county a suburb of DC. he says it in his rhymes all day. Why do county niggas like Jadakiss and DMX rep NYC then? try again faggot.
“he says it in his rhymes all day.”
that dont make it true. we all know ross never sold know kilos.
Do any men listen to Wale? Im not talking about you skirt wearing faggots I mean real men? I didnt think so!
What Wale needs to understand is that he’s 1. Dark Skinned and 2. Mediocre. That’s not a combination that is going to work well for him. In order for a dark skinned black person to be successful in entertainment, they have to be the best of the best, or at least have that perception around them. J Cole is just as mediocre as Wale but his albums sell 2-3 times as much. He can be mediocre and still make these lists and sell records, because as J Cole said himself, “light skinnded so the house niggas feel me”. It’s sad that the world is like this, but my suggestion to Wale would be to keep working hard and trying to better himself, without worrying about these lists. Deal with the cards you were dealt and keep it moving. I’m not impressed
j cole has also put out better hits n has a good relationship with his fanbase…he also doesnt carry himself like a diva…that might have something to do with why hes more successful than wale…
being humble can go a long way. this nigga wale crowns himself for more accomplishments that he never actually accomplished than any other rapper in the game!!!
U a pussy for always mentioning J Cole in your comments. And because he dark skinned??? Seriously??? U sound like a lame spewing BS like that. I can name thirty rappers darker than Wale who had a monster career. Go kill urself.
J Coles last album sold more than Rick Ross last album that shit cray
Just heard from my sources at MMG that Wale has been offered a five figure deal to represent Kleenex tissues the next time he gets his feelsing hurt and has emotional breakdown or throws a tantrum.
Get that money boyyyyy!!!!
Remember when Wale got butthurt that Tiara Thomas didnt wanna sign to his non existent label LOL nigga thought she owed him that but the truth is he owes her for giving him the biggest hit of his career!
Wales a lame. Why do rappers think that writers and r&b artists are soft just because they choose to sing and write articles as opposed to rapping lyrics?
Half of these dudes rapping are SOFT but cats think because they talk about guns and shooting folks they’re gangsta. Hell, they even believe their own hype.
I know an R&B dude you wouldn’t even know sang. Son looks like he’s straight out of jail and he doesn’t play games at all.
I can’t wait to see one of these rappers get knocked out by a writer.. thinking they’re soft.
TATTED UP JAR JAR BINKS LOOKING ASS CLOWN
Nigga should just be happy he sold as many copies of The Gifted as he did will get a chance to release a 4th album. Thank god for overweight females and homo poets!
Complex Adresses Local Rapper Who’s Not Drake’s Threats Criticism
hes from the suburbs of Maryland, not DC
The only reason Officer Ricky signed Wale was because he’s so fucking soft he makes everyone else on MMG seem harder just by having him around!
You mean relatable to women? He does a lot more for hiphop than you ever will.
what did Wale do for hip-hop
He gave us the song bad. What singles have you sold?
that song is terrible and it was not written by him
til I saw the draft ov $5580, I did not believe …that…my neighbour was actualie bringing in money part time at there labtop.. there brothers friend has done this 4 only twenty three months and by now took care of the debts on their cottage and got a great new Peugeot 205 GTi.

Beyonce article on a HipHop website? Can we get some Keisha Cole and Mary J too or are they not HipHop like Beyonce is?
WALEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY DOUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?>??????????????????????????????????????????????????
WALE & MAYCOCK MUSIC are lookin’ like CRYBABIES on this! HOW are you going TO TELL A CRITIC WHAT HE HAS TO LIKE?! That’s lika FAN tellin’ WALE what he HAS to RAP About or SOUND LIKE! That’s pitiful, NOW every critic in the Industry is GONNA HATE ON YOU & ALL YOUR CREW including the ‘kingpin’ William ‘Office Ricky – The Fake Rick Ross’ Roberts! ALL you guys are CLOWNS. Career OVER!
“NOW every critic in the Industry is GONNA HATE ON YOU & ALL YOUR CREW including the ‘kingpin’ William ‘Office Ricky – ”
they pretty much do apart from the select few on the MMG payroll.
“A platinum single that he stole from Tiara Thomas.”
You mean that disloyal bitch? Leaving wale’s label because rico love has a bigger cock to her? She has no hit singles by herself. Wale made the single hot. If anything, Rihanna helped more than Tiara.
there wouldnt be a song without tiara. and no one trying to be signed to this estrogen filled nigga
Tiara’s now signed to Rco Love’s label. Look it up.
Wale created this song and wanted Tiara to be on it.
tiara definitely made the song, but she did do him dirty. nobody would know about her if it wasn’t for the cloud and his verses on bad. bad was out way before wale put a verse on it and blew it up. and plenty of people would love to sign with wale. he’s not tryna sign anybody back home. he just got trel a deal out in the city. it’s a sad day for real when anybody speaking anything real is now estrogen filled. you must have been some sort of 80s kingpin mafioso right? foh.
You really are a fucking idiot.
My homegirl went on Wale’s tour bus after one of his shows looking for the D and he told her he just wanted to sit and talk and that he was saving himself for marriage.
gayest comment ever
Imagine how she felt!
Wale dad keeps emailing me with this fucking Nigerian bank scam what should I do?
lmao
:
00″Wale aint soft in the least bit, hes an African from DC that played ball and went to HBCUs”00
“So how exactly does that make him not soft? You’ve heard his songs… he one of the softest niggas in all of rap and hes more emotional than Drake! Drake would actually knock a nigga out but Wale wouldnt”
^^^Let me elaborate.
He ain’t no white boy or no white-bred Negro.
He didn’t grow up with a white mother coddling him like J. Cole he wasn’t raised as a Jew like Drake or in an Ohio suburb with a Mexican father like Kid Cudi,….
We talking about a dude with two African parents living in “Chocolate City” who played Division 1 football at a HBCU not some kiddie actor from Toronto or some Black hipster from Carson, we talking about somebody thats been in an environment where the soft don’t survive.
So yeah you might hear threats of physical violence on private recordings or confrontations at sporting events, its just in him to show his ass every once in a while.
Wale from maryland you pillsbury dough boy soft ass nigga
what the fuck is a HBCU this old groupie keeps talking about?
hes from the burbs of maryland!
kendrick is 1000% times harder than Wale.. shit even Drake is harder than this estrogen filled pinata
Haha, them Peckerwoods got heated early! Good blog my guy.
BruthaDee co-signing himself.
for real!
…none of those dudes talk tough like wale though at least theyre being themselves and not a diva who started acting like a street dude when he joined mmg
Wale went to one of the richest public high schools in the nation. And how exactly does having two black parents immediately qualify you as tough? Not everyone who is black is some hood rat.
Aye dis ya boii Gucci nahmsayin. Dis nigga Wale be a lil bitch nigga aye trap trap. I been trappin harder than dis nigga since muhfukkin ’94 n shit n now i gots me all da wawdamellun, grape soda, fried chikkin, and newports a nigga could want. #BURR #BRIKKSQUADD
gucci killed wale on his own song
http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d97/burninlover/Fridaythe13thavatar.jpg
Yeah Tiara made the hook but I woulda never listened to it without Wale rapping bars, the only singer I even listen to is Frank Ocean and hes Golf Wang.
Yah but he didnt write the hook or make the beat unlike Gucci Mane who makes his own beats and writes the hooks that his bitches sing.
King Guwop!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnPnRRpCUwg
Wale shed more light into the situation and I see its more going on behind the scenes with associates and affiliates….industry politics. Complex will try to drag this out for extra pub the world has moved on to Beyonce, Chris Brown, and Xmas shit.
we might have moved on but we will never forget about how wale’s bitchassness
You will remember it for the rest of your entire life and even on your death bed, thats what Wale did to you.
naw not like that but whenever I see this niccas picture of hear one of his songs which never happens I will remember
Lest we forget Wale bitch ass ness
this nigga is the antithesis of everything big gucci represents. Big gucci is the blue print of a real nigga and niggas like wale put the rest of us niggas to shame.
LMAO @ YOU LAMES ARGUING OVER WHO IS THE HARDER RAPPER, WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO ???
WE KNOW WALE ONE OF THE SOFTEST
Wale threatens a man over the phone and people say he is soft, Gucci Mane throws a woman out of a car and people say he is hard.
Only Gucci Mane stans say he’s hard. Everyone else says he’s stupid.
“J Coles last album sold more than Rick Ross last album that shit cray”
Rick Ross could buy J. Cole 30 million times over. That shit cray.
No, he couldn’t.
J Cole got an education to fall back on. Ross got a career in law enforcement…. Cole won!
“Nas been in the game (industry & streets) alot longer than Wale. I’m sure Nas has more connects”
Didn’t do shit in the streets, and is now an industry has been. As for his connects, Kelis owns them now.
You’re wrong about everything.
Right about everything. You can’t even prove your hero is still connected.
No, you’re wrong about everything. you can’t even back up all of the shit you say.
“J Cole got an education to fall back on. Ross got a career in law enforcement…. Cole won!”
I’m sure J. Cole can’t wait to work inside a cubicle.
