It seemed like it was yesterday that the self proclaimed “Rapper Eater” Lil Wayne graced our cover and had choice words for Jay-Z, Pharrell and The Clipse. Months later, Weezy has established himself as a mixtape beast, flooding the scene with his ironically titled ‘The Drought” series. Complex takes a look back at what Weezy F had to say about your favorite rappers. Don’t catch feelings, Ya Dig?

On Jay-Z:

Lil Wayne: I don’t like what he’s saying about how he had to come back because hip hop’s dead and we need him,” he says. “What the fuck do you mean? If anything it’s reborn, so he’s probably having a problem with that. You left on a good note, and all of the artists were saying, ‘Yo, this is Jay’s house. He’s the best.’ Now he comes back and still thinks it’s his house. But we fucked bitches in your bed already. It’s not your house anymore and I’m better than you.”

We asked if he thinks he’s better than Jay-Z:

Lil Wayne:  “Who don’t? [to friends in the background] Ay-yo, am I better than Jay? [friends laugh and nod]. I ain’t got nothing to do with who he is. I’m better than him, though. I’m 24 years old… The dude’s like…? It’s scary. I’m 13 years deep with five albums and 10 million records sold.”

On Clipse and Pharrell

Lil Wayne: I don’t see no fucking Clipse. This is a fucking legend you’re talking to right here. How many years them niggas been around? Who the fuck is Pharrell? Do you really respect him? That nigga wore BAPE and y’all thought it was weird. I wore it and y’all thought it was hot. What, I gotta go in the store and say, “ I like these colors, but I can’t buy them because other rappers wore them?”
