If there’s one thing Lil Wayne and Missy Elliott are going to do, it’s give each other their flowers while they can still smell them.
Weezy surprised Missy by pulling up to her wax figure’s unveiling at Madame Tussauds in Las Vegas last week.
The “Work It” rapper returned the favor by showering Weezy with love and credited him with “birthing a whole generation” of rappers after him.
“@LilTunechi You have Birthed a whole generation after you & Its easy for people to acknowledge Some1’s GREATNESS when their no longer around but I want you to know YOU ARE LEGENDARY,” she wrote to Twitter. “No matter who thinks differently YOUR BLUEPRINT is PRESENT! No debate.”
She added: “Sometimes it’s hard to run into a real one in this business but when you do DON’T LET THEM GO A huge hug will let them know you appreciate them & their contributions to the CULTURE! Thank You @LilTunechi.”
Missy Elliott has been feeling the love this year. In addition to receiving her own wax figure last week, the Virginia native was honored with her own street in her hometown of Portsmouth in September. That comes on the heels of earning a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last year.
Lil Wayne named Missy in the No. 1 slot of his top five rappers when rattling off his list on Fox Sports host Nick Wright’s What’s Wright? With Nick Wright podcast in May.
“It’s always gonna be first Missy Elliott,” he said. “She’s a huge influence of everything I’ve ever done. JAY-Z is the best ever to speak. Biggie, obviously. Then I have the whole Goodie Mob. Then I have UGK.”
Wayne has previously credited Missy with inspiring him to start using ad-libs on tracks. They’ve teamed up in the past on songs such as the leaked “All 4 U.”
She only said that bullshit because he gave her some flowers! You know it’s a lie when you have to say “no matter what anyone thinks”. To this day, the only classic Wayne has was THE BLOCK IS HOT. Every thing else was pure hype. His blueprint is hype. Wayne was the beginning of the down fall of a generation. (Period)

Stop using that stupid “giving his flowers” expression. Is this hiphop? Is this something a real man would say? Foh with that diksuker shiat. Hip hop is for fraggots and pussies these days. Fuk missy elliot. Fuk wayne. Commercial pop idiots
And you think they give a flying fuck about what you think? They rich! You just a squirrel looking for a nut.

A generation of gay rappers kissing their producer on the mouth and rapping about lollipops and lean. FOH! Lil Jon and his crunk music started to shit on rap, then Lil Wayne did. After that, everything turned into a downfall. A very few rappers of this new generation are still keeping the flame though: schoolboy q, joey badass, dave east, j.cole, ab-soul…
“gay rappers kissing their producer on the mouth”? Where did you get that from? Why did that suddenly spring up?
Cause Wayne used to kiss Birdman on the lips. There are pictures all over the internet fuckboi!
Perhaps too nice. I respect her. Truly I do. But that man does not deserve the type of praise with the type of people he has influenced a lot more than ever, especially in the black community.
At one point Wayne was the best during his early time in the rap game. I will agree he birth a whole generation. He may not be great now, but Carter 1-3 was his best work.
a generation of the wackest, most incoherent, lean sipping, pill popping, autotuned mumblers… great influence he made on the game!
