Lil Wayne Attempts to Clear Up Jay-Z Comments

After shocking the hip hop community with his thoughts on Def Jam President Jay-Z in the December/January issue of Complex, Lil Wayne called Hot97 during DJ Absoluts show in attempt to clear his comments.

I dont like what hes saying about how he had to come back because Hip-Hops dead and we need him. Its not your house anymore, and Im better than you,"

In response to the quote above, Wayne explained that he disliked the concept of Hovs album, based on the fact that hip hop is dead and he is here to save it.

I think I speak for everybody when I say its not dead as long as Im still dropping albums, Lil' Wayne said on air.

Wayne continued, saying that some of the comments were in direct result of the situation between himself and Roc-A-Fella this past year.

I want people to just look at it like that dude who came out of college that was supposed to get drafted by the #1 team, which was Roc-A-Fella/Def Jam They passed on me and now Im with a good team and a good coach and of course on every interview Im gonna cut down the team that didnt pick me.

Not only did Lil Wayne stick to his guns, when he stated he was better than Jay-Z, he now claims that that statement couldve been directed to anyone.

"I'm better than this game. We could be having this conversation about any other person in this game. It was who I was asked about at this time. Yall trying to build a case on me. But I tell you what. If you build a case against me and take me to trial, I will beat it."
