Wale Confronts NBA Commentators For Making Fun Of Him

    Wale didn’t take a pair of commentator’s comments lightly. While at the Washington Wizards game last night, the Maybach Music Group member heckled Toronto Raptors’ Rudy Gay, an incident that elicited a response from the player. The commentators turned their attention to the emcee, branding him as a “local rapper” and stating that “he’s not Drake, that’s for sure.”

    “A fan heckling him and supposedly, this fan is a well-known local rapper. Wall-ay. Locally, here,” said one commentator. “Wale is inspiring. I’m sure somebody on Twitter could tell me if they exactly had ever heard of Wale. He’s not Drake, that’s for sure.”

    The Washington, D.C. native then left his courtside seat to confront the commentators for belittling him on the mic. While the confrontation is without audio, someone uploaded a clip of Wale addressing the commentators to YouTube.

    Wale, who recently dropped off his mixtape Folarin, is currently prepping the release of either an album or mixtape titled The Album About Nothing with comedian Jerry Seinfeld.

    1. You are not from “Washington, D.C” you are from montgomery county, MD. the #1 school district in the country. Yeah you went to VA State but stop claiming DC, bc the real DC Heads know you aint from there. This comin from SE Good Hope Rd who know you. You fit in with Rick Ross though….LOL. Be you

      1. Thanks for that. Always funny to hear how much of these entertainers backstory is BS. Never been a fan of Wale music….just can’t get into it. However, I do he would be alot better without riding Ross’s coattails

      2. never seen someone so mad for another person putting their city on. 2pac was from baltimore, but he repped LA. ijs. yall be over analyzing the wrong things.

      3. You act like you can’t cross the street from MD and be in DC. You should appreciate that Wale puts on for you clowns. He could rep VA if he wanted to…that would’ve actually been a smarter move.

    2. He ain’t no Ja Rule, that’s fo sho. That boy Ja, he a internationally recognized star………Babaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

    3. Probably the most pathetic thing I’ve seen in a while.

      Heckles a player like he’s a big shot

      Gets dismissed as a nobody by the announcers and acts like a diva. As if the announcers should know who is he. Nobody at a basketball game gives a f**k who any rapper is, the same way no one at a rap concert gives a f**k who any basketball player is. Stay in your lane and quit acting like a child

      He is nobody, who is he to be heckling anyone, if someone did that at his show he’d get them kicked out.

      The guy is a loser

    4. when people were makin fun of the rick ross shooting on twitter this nigga said he had to block and unfriend a bunch of people! LOL!

    5. He’s no Drake, because he isn’t some lame cat pretending to be something he isn’t. Drake is a canadian actor from the show degrassi high. Get the fuck out of here if you still riding on drakes dick. Common bodied him, and Wale is MUCH MUCH more important to Hip Hop than Drake ever will be. You young money fools are what’s wrong with Hip Hop. Kill yourselves.

      1. Stop fooling yourself. Wale is Drake with dreads. Both are fake ass rappers who are wack as fuck. Matt Devlin was correct when he said Wale is no Drake, Drake is obviously more well known and popular.

    6. Wale only beefs with old white guys on national TV who are too busy to acknowledge him let alone fight his weak ass

    7. Wale is SO BITCHMADE!!! Im a fan of his music, but he continually does shyt like this that makes him look like a damn LAME!!… THis reminds me of the time when he called up a radio station talking all crazy like he was gonna run up on somebody…. Everyone knows that nigga aint built like that. He needs to sit the fuck down, and make music…. stop trying to be “That nigga”.

    8. I wouldn’t even sweat them dudes if I was Wale, especially when he obviously makes more bank than them. They can stick to the smart ass comments. We’re getting money over here.

      1. did you miss the part where he was sitting courtside heckling the players? so he can heckle nba players but the announcers cant heckle him back because he makes more money than them?

        HES A BITCH STRAIGHT UP

      2. LOL @ANON 1. “We’re getting money over here”????

        LOL i didnt know you were Wales manager or producer!!! lolololol what a dickriding stan

      3. Niggaz think that if they dickride their favore artist and always bring up how much $$$ they got, that they will get $$ and be as successful as them. Str8 up HOEZ

    9. you always know when a guy pussy.. he wont say shit to the tall, semi strong black nba player who can prob brawl (or atleast better than the announcers) but hell go up 2 the short, soft white announcers and act hard… thats how u can always tell someone pussy when they try 2 stunt on soft white people but act bitchmade when a black dude step 2 him..

      SOFT. hes perfect for mmg, between him, officer ricky and weak mill… they got the softest group in america in history

      1. You racist prick. Because he’s white he has to be soft? And because he’s black he’s hard? GTFOH. He didn’t step to the black guy because the black guy probably had a gun and would shoot him for his Jordans.

    10. Wale not really soft for this sometimes you got to address people on certain situation dude cross the line calling him a local rapper and talk about he not drake i mean come on kind of pushing it there and before you speak do your research bout me

      1. Really dude? That required him to protect his manhood? What about when Cas said he’d go at the rest of MMG after meek? I didn’t hear him then.

      1. that wale thinks hes more famous than he really is. he got emotional cause some white basketball announcer didnt know who he was and said he’s no drake, which is true.

      2. @anonymous thats a shameless and deliberate distortion of the incident. the guy was clearly being disrespectful and condescending. you like a tmz ass nigga

    11. How Is It A Mixtape Or Album When The Title Is “The ALBUM About Nothing”…..Plus The Fact That “The MIXTAPE About Nothing” Came Out In 2008? Cmon DX…..

      1. Its a reference to Seinfield dumbass and was highly successful, Also Wale is dropping an album called Nothing working with Jerry Seinfield himself, do everyone a favor and dont open your mouth if you dont know shit

    12. i use to be a fan of wale before the mmg deal i even liked his ambition album but wale getting soft and too much mainstream.hope emilio rojas dont end up ever signing to mmg all their artists are gettin fucked.
      the only 2 not getting wreck is stalley nd omarion

    13. Who is the next MMG member to make themselves look stupid?

      This group is for suckas, and if you like them, you probably a sucka nigga too.

    14. If Wale don’t stand up for himself, nobody will. Any one of you would do the same thing if somebody was dismissing you as just some local joke, or a wanna be.

    15. Hip-Hop is looking great right now. Lables like TDE & GOOD are thriving and blossoming while labels like MMG & YMCMB are slowly sinking. Drake, stick to your OVO label. How many times are you supposed to stand by Wayne while he keeps making his team look bad?

    16. Ha! They were ignoring that nigga! LMAO! He’s throwing a tantrum just like a bitch! How can you respect this clown? Well I guess if you’re a bitch ass you can relate to this… LMAO

    17. wow, some of these rappers will do anything for attention… and way too sensitive. So what Wal-E, so what if a middle aged white man never heard of you? Most have not heard of you bro, relax.. enjoy the game. Black people need to do better, man..

    18. LMFAO!!!! He deffinately aint Drake, Wale think just cause he signd to Officer Ricky and he part of the MMG Correctional Officers Crew that the whole world kno him…Wale u aight, shoulda signd w/a better label….Meek better than Wale Fasho

    19. That LardAss Rozay is gonna take his whole team down w/him, right now MMG lookn like the titanic hahahahaha, Yo Rozay y dont u go sign Celine Dion!!! lol

    20. I always said you can tell a fake nigga by the music they listen too.

      Jay Z, Biggie, Rick Ross. Fake.

      Real.

      Pac, Nas, Ghostface.

    21. Wale aka Olubowale Victor Akintimehin Folarin – When son brought his slave wave to the game…nobody thought he would amount to shit b. NOBODY…. And they was right. There aint one muthafucka in the industry who crowns hisself for more accomplishments that he never actually accomplished than ya boy Olubowale be doin nahmean. To be honest tho…son aint even trash like that…he jus emotionally delicate n he got the personality of a 7 year old white kid from Bel Air namsayin. If you aint never seen the nigga throw a tantrum you either dont got access to the internets or you jus dont actually kno who the fuck son is at all son. But son is mad protective over his image b. Like.. more than normal niggas usually is namsayin. This the type of dude who updates his own wikipedia page b.

    22. The tour’s been canceled, Rozay’s in fear of his life, Gunplay gets caught robbing on camera, then gets his ass kicked and his chain snatched, Meek’s album flops, he gets ethered by Cassidy, and Wale gets ethered by a middle-aged sportscaster. The hits just keep on comin’!

    23. “You act like you can’t cross the street from MD and be in DC. You should appreciate that Wale puts on for you clowns. He could rep VA if he wanted to…that would’ve actually been a smarter move.”

      LMAO damn son you be killin them hos but anyway you D.C. niggas really should be glad Walle be repping for y’all cause besides that No One in this world finna give a fuck about you lame ass bitches
