Shondrae spoke to BET on how Wayne’s latest street single almost went to Clifford instead:
The Atlanta-based beat maker knew Weezy F. was the perfect match for the track when he made it this summer, but was hesitant to submit it to the Young Money boss since he’d yet to be paid royalties for producing 2008’s “A Milli.”
“Due to the situation and the circumstances of the Cash Money situation, I really wasn’t thinking about Wayne at that moment when I made it,” Bang told BET.com. “I just knew that the beat was a big track and I couldn’t at the time think of nobody that could swag this out like that or was worthy enough of this beat really.
“I was actually sending the beat to Gee for T.I.,” he revealed. “I mean, not that I think T.I. would sound good on the beat, they were just looking for a single and somebody said, ‘man, send that to Gee, T.I. need something.’
“I already dealt with T.I., I know how T.I. is, I knew he wouldn’t really be rocking this beat right there, so I sent it anyway,” he added. “And Gee just hit back talking about Wayne, ‘man, Wayne’ll kill this, Wayne’ll kill this,’ so I had to really see if I wanted to do it or not, but they’ve been communicating, they’ve been reaching out.”
Congrats on getting paid at the end of the day, Bangs. I’m sure Beanie Sigel would love to be in your shoes right now.

“Life is the bitch, and death is her sister
Sleep is the cousin, what a f-ckin’ family picture
You know father time, we all know mother nature
It’s all in the family, but I am of no relation” -wayne
how is that not dope
Patrick ,weezy sucks & is no king
@ Billyclint Kendrick Killed 6’7
And yeah iCnt lie wayne had sum nice punchlines in there, But cmon rite along with that he had the same ol same ol lines in there, like beatin it up like sumthin, fuck the world like sumthin nd otha stuff. iJus think its a ova hyped track cuz its Wayne where he jus gettin out and niggas dyin to hear how he sound & how his 1st track out gon sound. Wayne has to be the most ovahyped overrated artist out. iRemba one track he said the whole alphabet and niggas drooled ova it lie word?
i hate when producers take lame-ass photos like that (like they
are the artists.) stay behind the scenes like you’re supposed too, man. no one’s gonna get hyped off no picture of you standing sideways in a shirt n tie with retarded cornrows sticking out your head. i guess a lot of folks never listened to Suge at the Source Awards, huh?
Bangladesh looking like Coolio in that photo
Not really a huge fan of the Weezy version but do think that T.I. wouldnt have been a great fit for this particular beat
Lol, when I heard that Diddy almost had Castle Walls over Tip, I was like “NOOOOOOOOOOOOO”, and now I hear Tip almost got 6’7″ over Wayne I’m like “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”
Beat = Wack
beats wack, no talent at all to create it just a repetitive sample played over and over again over a kick and snare like wtf.
^^^ STFU you gothic faggot.
F*ck Wayne + TI we need/want Percey Sledge over the m*therf*cker
beat ain’t wack, it’s banging, but I ain’t sayin ”wayne back, wayne a beast” n shit, No Ceilings was better IMO, but aye The Carter 4 prolly gon be wack anywayz, this track pretty dope, but Wayne voice is annoyin as fuck
the beat is too dope for t.i. … wayne ain’t the greatest but yall stay hating on that dude like he’s the worse. he definitely ripped that beat better than cory gunz did and ain’t nobody saying shit about him.
“if no one is hating, then you’re not doing something right…”
