    On right now.

    Somewhat surreal to see these two people together.

    Dammit, I was thinking of Lil John. But I will post it anyway:

    I watched Lil Wayne on whatever is now Cold Pizza on ESPN, and Wayne and Skip Bayless debated or something like that, and it was interesting.

    I am not watching this Couric thing, but this Wayne guy is not an idiot. He may do the odd idiot thing, but I thought he was pretty smart.

    If you're asking why she's doing the interview, it's probably because he's the biggest star in the industry right now.

    Most of his music, IMO, is overrated garbage, these days anyway. The Carter series, in particular The Carter II, is outstanding, but I'm not a big fan of his recent stuff. He's an interesting cat, though.

    Did the same thing, 'gola. Kept waiting for the Chappelle clips, wasn't until midway thru that the thought occurred to me that I had the wrong guy.

    Interesting special, tho. Her interview with Timberlake only served as a reminder of why the guy is pretty cool, whether you dig his music or not. He has a sense of humor about himself, his success. It's refreshing.

    Seems like a cool and smart guy, but he's one rough-looking dude. Not a big fan of his music, but admittedly haven't heard a lot of it. I can imagine that watching this interview would be a surreal experience.

    Lil Wayne is a bright, talented guy and talented artist.

    But that giggling shit during his songs makes me nauseous. Why the hell does he do that?
