Remember when Kobe Bryantsat in on a marketing class at Boston College earlier this year? Well, apparently, he learned a thing or two.

Lil Wayne sat down with ESPN The Magazine for an interview recently. And during that interview, he revealed that the "Carter V Season" marketing campaign that he's currently using for his forthcoming Tha Carter V album was created by Kobe. Back in April, Wayne asked Kobe to tweet out a photo to help promote Tha Carter V. And Kobe agreed to do it and tagged the photo with the caption, "Carter V Season":

Wayne thought enough of it to jack the caption for his campaign. And just like that, Kobe proved that he might have a serious future in the world of marketing.

Not bad for a guy who literally sat in on one college class, eh?
