“When I was in the Olympics,” he told MTV News, “I didn’t really listen to music. During the Olympics, it was mainly reggae, a little hip-hop. But I like Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, those guys. That’s who we listen to in Jamaica. A little bit of Ludacris. But as long as it’s hot, we got it.” [...]
“Right now, it’s Lil Wayne, #1,” he said. “He’s hot. He’s got everything. He sings the right tunes. I’m seriously listening to all his songs right now. Really sitting down, listening to his lyrics, and he’s got his lyrics [down] pat now. He’s got his lyrics. He’s coming up like Jay-Z. He’s smooth. He’s got a different flow from Jay-Z, but lyrics-wise, he’s got it. He’s a lyricist. Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, I don’t care who comes third. These guys have the whole place on edge, man. It’s hot.”
Bolt said he’s getting into the mixtape circuit as well, and on the reggae tip, Vybz Kartel and Beenie Man are the tops for him.
Speaking of Vybz, check out this hilarious diss track aimed at Bounty Killer under the cut.
Hip Hop, Video


Dope!!! Usain Bolt is that dude,
I think people just like lil weasel because mtv tells them to
sad
^^ cosign.
This is bounty not vybz
He’s just now gettin put on, so i expected those choices… Last year around this time i would’ve told him to stick to reggae… He’s learnin, at least Jay got real lyrics for him
He’d prolly run even faster if he turned that bullshit OFF.
That is Bounty Killer that was a reply to Vybz Kartel’s diss.
jamaicans dont get the good music we get up here, all they get from america is that commercial shit so Bolt dont know any better

SMH… Say “I’m the best rapper alive” enough times and the world will believe you i guess.. there’s really no way of judgin that in the 1st place but still, Wayne #1 in your playlist. Usain must be like 16-17 yrs old huh!?(he 23)
just sad everyone just hops on whatever on tv and the radio
I really don’t see how people is brave enough to put lil’ wayne and Jay together.
Bolt deserves a fucking BIG L for what he said!
“Right now, it’s Lil Wayne, #1″ LMAO
(Not a drake fan) -Waits for him to take over young money & lil’ wayne’s spotlight.
4 out of 5 on the Rick Ross Fail Scale
I heard Michael Phelps listened to Jeezy and only Jeezy before every gold medal race last year.

Usain also enjoyed “Run This Town”
