Nardwuar the Human Serviette comes through with another great interview -- this time with hip-hop superstar Lil Wayne. If you are familiar with Nardwuar then you know that this is not your atypical interview.

Some interesting tidbits about Weezy:

He's a big Nirvana/Kurt Kobain fan.

His first rap name was Shrimp Daddy, named after the late New Orleans bounce rapper Pimp Daddy.

He still remembers Baby's old beeper number and office number.

The Big Tymers had their own Rap Snacks.

He fucks with Nardwuar. I think we all do. **PAUSE**

Holla!

If you haven't listened to N.O.R.E.'s FreEP N.O.R.Easter you are missing out on a stellar online mixtape. The Queens, N.Y. rapper's EP is so good it should have been a full-fledge album. One of the many highlights from the collection is the criminal-minded banger "N.O.R.E Shot Somebody." The song itself went viral and became a popular hashtag (#NOREShotSomebody) on twitter. The clip was directed by Giancarlo Loffredo and producer Scram Jones made the killer beat.

With more than a month to go before Ja Rule heads to the slammer on tax evasion charges, Ja Rule premiered a new song from his upcoming album P.ain I.s L.ove 2 (or PIL2). The New York rapper reflects on his past mistakes on the 7 Aurelius-produced track, which features a perfectly-fitted Queen sample. The song is perfect for radio.
