Ain't anything new here but here are some snippets that I thought was interesting!
Injury and full time rapping:
"Four months ago, Wayne moved into
this new space, with the skate park and
ESPN playing on mute around the clock
in the recording studio. Soon after, he
injured his heel, which kept him of his
board for a month and forced him into
the studio full time. It was, he says, “God
telling me, ‘You have to go to work, bro.’ ”
After experiencing a series of widely
reported seizures between 2013 and 2017,
Wayne has cut his marathon recording
sessions from what he says were 26-hour
runs down to “12 or 14” hours. “That’s
the main thing that friends and family
and the doc and all them recommend,”
he says. “Just get you some rest.”"
How Carter V will be received and whether it's a comeback or not:
"Wayne constantly tinkers with older
material, even as he records new music.
“I’m very much a perfectionist,” he says.
But he knows he can’t control how the
album will be received. “I don’t know
what it’s setting me up for — some big
comeback, or maybe some big fall back
or whatever — but it’s setting me up for
something, and I’m ready.”"
Outro Track:
"As the clock ticks toward midnight and
Wayne puts on the outro track, Maine
punches the air at key moments. As
Sampha’s hook — a plaintive plea, “Let
it all work out,” repeated over and over
— lands, the full force of the song comes
to bear, and Wayne stands, eyes closed,
swaying slightly. He’s holding another
blunt in his hand, but it’s unlit and
forgotten as he lets the sound wash over
him. When the song’s over, he lashes his
diamond-watt grin, satisied."I could sell Sweet and Low to Sugar Ray Leonard!!!

“They know how to make them joints that y’all going to be runnin’ to. I’m something else with my music.”
“Not even just with him, but my relationships with a lot of people have become different, just because of how different I work now,” he says. “I’m submerged in everything about myself, trying to be better at who I am. It’s something where you have to cut some things off.”
I like those bits.
