Lil Wayne Says He’s “Ready To Retire Now”

    Lil Wayne was the guest of honor in the second season debut of Katie Couric’s show, “Katie.”

    During the show, Weezy and Kouric discussed topics such as Lil Wayne’s time in jail, as well as his upbringing.

    Another subject the pair broached was Wayne’s oft-discussed retirement plans.

    During the interview, Wayne confirmed that he plans to retire from music by the age of 35, and that his motivation to do so would be to spend more time with his children.

    “Whatever they want to do. I don’t want to have no influence … ‘Hey you must do this, you must do that,'” he explained. “Because I didn’t have that and because I didn’t have that I grew up to be exactly what I wanted to be and how I wanted to be. I want that for all of my kids.”

    “I know I’ll be ready to retire at 35 because I am so ready to retire now!” said Wayne, who has one daughter and three sons.

    Lil Wayne has said or hinted he will retire after releasing Tha Carter IV, then said he would once Tha Carter V was released.

    1. I’m probably gonna throw a retirement party if and when this ever happens! He wont be invited but we will celebrate never having to hear his bullshit ever again and maybe listen to some of his old mixtape music from when it was half decent.

    2. I will never leave ymcmb. Why, because Birdman employed me. Wayne will still be involved in guest verses and signing talented new artists.

    3. Wayne knows that the clock is ticking for YMCMB.

      That’s the real reason he’s retiring.

      Or the fact that he’s tired of Baby ripping him off all these years.

    4. Yep Wayne. Retire for them kids. Mr. Weezy F. Baby. Somewhere, someone, eventually, in the near future, one day,and in due time you might be missed. 1 wack rapper and 6 more wack mainstream rappers to go.

    5. WAS JUST TALKING TO BABY ABOUT THIS. IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ANYTIME SOON. BABY PAID THIS NIGGA A LOT OF MONEY IN THE CONTRACT HE SIGNED LAST YEAR AND THEY ARE NOT GOING TO LET HIM QUIT.

    6. Retire now! Shit, I’m tired of hearing this nigga coming up with some corny ass bars about money and pussy every damn song!

    7. don’t get your hopes up guys. ain’t it been like 15 times he’s been teasing retirement. even if he does retire, he’ll make a comeback at least once. his job is fuckin easy, don’t need to be lyrical or super original, these YMCMB dickriders will take anything he shits out of his ass.

      two years after he hangs up the mic… pussy pussy pussy this and nigga nigga nigga that and you got yourself a comeback single.

    8. Good…His shits tired.Make room for some real spitters.None of that stale Tyga/Minaj shit tho.I wanna hear rappers rap,not bitch and whine about everything

    9. this dude don’t know what he wants to do, he seems to be in a identity crisis, for the last year, he has been saying he is more into skating and other shit and don’t care about rap like that, and it shows in his music. Then he sees he is not nominated for any awards, and just last week he tells his fans he is going to work harder. Now he says he is ready to retire NOW. WAYNE just go on a hiatus and find yourself…..i’m not a fan…but he diserves a break..dude been going hard since the late 90″s. He is burnt out. Go sit down somewhere, let people miss you, than come back with a dope album. AND WRITE YOUR LYRICS…NO MORE OF THIS OFF THE DOME SHIT…PLEASE

    10. in later news rockers and rappers try to act like their cool even try to dress like other people from naborhoods they act like their cool then set people up.other news later.

    11. find out who they are threw their record labels or movies now.they try to act like other people say crazy stuff and try to set them up. other news later.

      1. “WE?” YOU’RE NOT A PART OF YMCMB, YESSIR. YOU’RE AT YOUR MOM’S HOUSE JACKING OFF ON THE BASEMENT. ONLY 4 NIGGAS IN YMCMB ARE EATING, EVERYONE ELSE IS STARVING. THOSE CARS AND HOUSES ARE RENTED.

    12. Lil Wayne has felt like his next album would be his last since The Carter 3. He went from being a grind-all-night hustler, never stopping, always go-go-go, but now he is the biggest diva in hip-hop, even bigger than Hov. He is driven everywhere, has all his shopping done for him and rarely goes to the clubs anymore and just has girls brought in. All he ever wants to do is skateboard but he hates skating in front of anyone so he rents out facilities or skate parks and hangs out there for hours, smoking weed, sipping lean and probably skating although very few people know as he never lets anyone come with him. Baby is getting sick of the skateboard thing as he feels it’s interfering with the creative process but Baby is also afraid to piss Wayne off because he knows Weezy and Young Money is his most profitable music venture.

    13. like Charlotte replied I am inspired that a person able to earn $8021 in one month on the computer. This Site… http://www.Cafe44.com
