HARRY BELAFONTE WEIGHS IN ON LIL’ WAYNE’S “6 FOOT 7 FOOT” SAMPLE

“It’s not my song. It’s a song that belongs to millions of people in the Caribbean. An ancient work song that people, of which my family was one of them, [who] were plantation workers . . . sang in the day and they sang in the night. They sang every opportunity they could get to throw off the burdens of poverty, and therefore the song has great significance . . . I’m just glad to see that the younger generations have picked it up and are carrying the song forward in their own way, just like I picked it up in my time.” (source)

weezy11 Freeze Frame: Weezys Family Atmosphere In Atlanta

One would imagine that juggling the demands of multiple baby mamas is far from easy but Lil’ Wayne seem to relish the challenge. With four under his belt the 28-year-old is showing no signs of letting up any time soon. While that act of perseverance garners a rousing standing ovation down at the car wash Waka Flocka Flame got shot at I doubt you are out of your seat just yet.

Half of Weezy’s baby muvahs (Sarah Vivian, pictured above holding Dwayne III and Toya Carter) enjoyed a front row view at their child support check at work during the Atlanta stop of the ‘I Am Music’ Tour. “Just enjoyed an AMAZING show w/ the fam!!!! 1st time Lil Tune seen Daddy do his thing LIVE!! @NICKIMINAJ gave us memories for LIFE!!,” tweeted Sarah after watching Big Tunechi tear down Philips Arena on Saturday.

Quick Flicks: Toya Carter & Lil’ Wayne’s Daughter Reginae Celebrates Her 12th Birthday

Lil’ Wayne and his seamlessly blended hood rich family congregated at posh Atlanta restaurant Straits over the weekend to celebrate daughter Reginae’s 12th birthday. Toya’s current beau producer / personality Memphitz, Tiny, Birdman, Nivea, Young Money diaper genie Lil’ Chuckee and Diggy Simmons rounded out the list of well wishing guests. There were no signs of Grandma Crazy Nita, though.

It would break my heart if this child goes down the Bobbi “Nympho Babii” Kristina route. Just say no to Four Loko’s and McRibs, Reginae!

While her partner in crime Tiny continues to speed through life without a license, insurance, or wearing a seat belt (known as riding Gucci in some parts) on her way to pick up the WTF Girlz from vocal lessons before making a pit spot to Da Pill Man house, Toya is a lane over riding on cruise control to happiness.

T.I. Puts The Brakes On ‘Tiny & Toya’

Try to control your emotions.

Word on the curb is that T.I. has pulled on the plug on Tiny & Toya and the show will not be back for a third season. While this news isn’t worth going on a full blown hunger strike for but I may just skip my mid-day snack in protest. Fans of the show can continue to follow Toya doing Toya shit (slow twerking in the middle of the kitchen to Magnolia Shorty, praying for Crazy Nita, popping tags, the usual) on her exciting  new spin-off series.

She recently granted a lucky high school junior a dream prom experience after partnering up with Atlanta-based event planning / concierge service The Network. Gold star for you! Hit up my boy Freddy O for flicks.

YouTube Clip of the Day

It’s unfortunate that this parody of Tiny & Toya could suffice as a full episode of the show if more BET budget cuts occurred.
