Wayne came on here and talked skating the whole time. I’ve seen them have guests on who “used to skate” and sit around talking about their movies or music. This dude came on talking skating non-stop. He’s about it for real.
I hope people can appreciate how unselfish it is that Wayne is letting skaters use his music for parts without demanding payment. I think that more than a lot of things demonstrates a true and genuine love for the sport. Just wanting to be a part of something because being involved is rewarding enough. Ofc he’s extremely wealthy, but often very wealthy people are the most greedy. Hats off to him. That’s just awesome.
@@viking_nor Oh who knows dude. There are other, smaller artists that give people rights to use their music in different kinds of projects without much in return. Sometimes for a percentage, sometimes to benefit from the additional exposure, and sometimes just because they like and want to support or be a part of a project. You never know.
This was beautiful. Never seen Wayne talk about anything with a glow like he does skating. The fact that he finds peace doing something he loves no matter age, background is very inspiring.
Well ya still have to go through legal. What he was saying more so as music is cut throat and people will need to be paid. Projects of note, you will still have to pay for clearing just not a zillion dollars as he said
*As a Black kid growing up, i was so into metal, the alt scene. when wayne went into that space it literally inspired me to pick up a guitar and a skateboard back in 08. im 24 now and it’s 2023. Wayne and Lupe are the reason why i’m a big fan of skateboarding. tony too of course, wouldn’t be without him. but wayne solidified it for me and i’m sure other black men can agree. love the fuck out of this interview*
Lil Wayne is a time capsule in my life. Money On My Mind was playing the first time I smoked weed in HS. My buddy gave me a gas mask, put the bud in the bowl, and I coughed the cherry out in the car. Comfortable was playing the first time I got laid after a dance. How To Love was playing on the first date with a girl I think about almost every day. Let It All Work Out was playing at my lowest point after breaking up with that girl. "God, came to my side and we talked about it He sold me another life and he made a profit" It's all good now. I love you Wayne. Thank you.
mannnn i feel this one!!!! in high school me and my gf was listening to the carter 3 while getting it on in bed lol we listened to the whole thing and had to press replay when the album was over
@@danc8458 He wrote like 8 sentences. If 8 sentences equals a book to you, maybe you should use your time picking up an actual book and increase your IQ above average room temperature.
Yes! I’ve always been a fan of skating and now I really want to learn. I have tried a many times throughout my life working on my balance on a board. This makes me want to do more!
@@deanabdulhaqq2082do it player! It’s always fun, I’ve been skating on and off since bout 5th grade and you never have a boring time. Lived in over 5 different places and everywhere I’ve gone there’s always been nice people at the local skatepark who make you feel welcome at their home park. This episode also motivated me to want to start getting more into it again
@@deanabdulhaqq2082Bend the knees when you're on your board, homie. You got this! Been skating most of my life and it's always sick to see someone new getting into it! You can do it, homie! I believe in you!
I don't think Wayne is the rap goat, but out of most rappers if not all I'd rather sit and chat or hang out with Wayne. He seems to be such a decent person. He made the money, did it all but still sits and is just a person. No ego. No hubris. Just a man. I dig that shit. He's a real one
"Skateboarding doesn't make you a skateboarder. Not being able to stop skateboarding makes you a skateboarder" - Lance Mountain. Wayne is a certified skater!
You’re not a real skater then. If you can’t listen to him here and hear in his voice an the way he tells this story that he really cares about skateboarding then you don’t n ow skaters. This dude loves it. He might not be able to kick flip but he can board slide a 4 stair rail. No one learns to do that and bails and hurts himself as much as you do learning that just to sell stickers to emo kids. He has millions going o my out and goi g platinum, the tiny bit of money he might make from skating is nothing compared to that. This dude really loves skating
@@danc8458 You all clearly do. Who cares if he’s “trying to live another life”. It’s a life he truly feels connected with and isn’t just doing for the views and attention then why does anyone give a fuck? I don’t know why people would think he’d doing it for the wrong reasons. What’s the *right* reasons? He’s way too old to be getting hurt like skaters do unless he really loved it. That’s the right reason: if you really love skateboarding
I’ve never met Wayne.. but his aura is of gratitude.. and the sheer rarity - of his talents, honesty, and appreciation- is gorgeous. I love the southern artists.. much love
Lil wayne is just such a breath of fresh air in every interview i see of him. Hes so much more humble and down to earth than the vast majoirty of celebrities and especially rappers.
Hawk, Wolf...and Wayne!!!🤔 From a lifelong "black" skater, I am 47 at the moment, I can truly appreciate the significance of what I just watched. Pride is too small of an emotion to describe how I feel about Wayne the skater...and for who I consider a godfather of the culture (Hawk) to be impressed is awesome validation...that we understand you didn't need, kick push for ever. Awesome show guys.
I've been trying to find this video. It was a black dude who seemed very "hood" doing 360 flips wearing untied timberland boots. He was doing them 360 flips just about as fast as I can snap my fingers. I have no idea who that dude is, it was just a random video that was popular like seven years ago. It honestly seemed like he only did that one trick. Pretty fucking impressive. I met this black dude who did flat ground bmx one time and he blew my mind. Seemed like a pro to me but he said he was just another dude. He did this trick where he rode in tighter and tighter and tighter circles until eventually he went up on just his front wheel and was just free-spinning like a fkn figure skater or a ballerina. Just impossibly fast, an impossible number of rotations. He rode it out man, that fucking guy was nasty with it. This was in downtown Detroit at like three am, back around 2012-13. I'll never forget that dude, what a thrill. Edit:basically what I'm saying here is, these types of "sports", I think of them more as artform, they are universal, for everybody, maybe Lil Wayne cant do a 360 flip but come on, nobody can do EVERYthing. Even myself, I suck, but I love to just roll around, tic-tac, just feels good. Just like anything, cooking, golf, gardening, sewing, play an instrument Just to express yourself. Even if you suck, ppl like watching other ppl have fun, it's all fun. All good things.
I'm 48 now I'm assuming you are too. Do you ever still skate? I use to be really good but I recently tried a impossible and couldn't. I was so upset but I now understand the saying of not using it you lose it. Still have love for it. We use to get laughed at by the black guys when skating yelling out yeah dude that's rad man. I would say man it's not even like that. Now look at how far skating got I love it
You can see his passion when he’s on these skate podcasts and just talks about skating for the entire show. He definitely enjoys these “interviews” a lot compared to traditional ones he’s used to
To know this man has been selling out shows and arenas since before he was 20, and he says he’s never felt something like skateboarders rushing him to celebrate a line is something truly incredible and speaks to the power of skate culture
That Barcelona story gave me chills. Wayne been a superstar since he was 16. Yet, he'd never felt that sense of achievement like landing that trick surrounded by strangers. Great story. Fire podcast
I’ve listen to Wayne since hot boyz, and wen I first heard he started skatin I thot it was cool but that it wood be a quick one and done type of deal. The fact he loves skatin, not just for learning new tricks, but for the sense of community and brotherhood skatin can bring makes me love this man even more. plus he’s not big leaguing anyone cuz he’s Wayne, he’s just a rapper who loves to skate
The skate community is the best community anyone can discover. The friends are forever and the memories made with skating and the moments with friends made with it is an amazing experience. Meeting new skaters at new skate parks and creating new bonds. Hella smoke sesh and brew runs haha
Wayne is only a handful of people that I will watch a whole interview start to finsh.. No distractions Checking other devices.. dude is a very interesting human
It’s therapy, it’s a release, it’s a freeing your mind. I started skating again and got really good again last year. I have lots of problems lol. And I leaned into skating and it took all my sorrows and bullshit away. Hell yeah. Good Interview and very motivating and extremely relatable as an older injured skater.
So cool that Wayne got into skating. Hes worked his whole life since he was a kid, glad he picked up a new hobby and found an industry and community he likes.
All I have to say WOW. I came from skating and to see these legends talk about the passion and the lifestyle is amazing. Im so glad that these guys are putting out content to be honest and talk about how skating makes them feel. From the gangs and drugs in the early 90's to being able to sit in a studio and talk truth about how life is so beneficial to our society. Love you guys for doing this✌
Wayne was a child in the early 90s, and got picked up by the industry when he was 14, so no gang involvement with him personally. He lived a rich and privileged life, with some gang elements coming into it occasionally through his label. You can see he's really humble and grateful though
I'm a conservative rural Idaho guy and not necessarily a rap fan but I sure do love Wayne! He seems like such a wonderful person. He is so kind, caring, positive, respectful and full of gratitude. The world definitely needs a lot more people just like him. ❤
The peak of his career with Da drought 3 and carter 3 was around 2007-2008, that's 15 years ago. I used to call pac and biggie old school in those days, and it wasn't as old as this moment in Wayne's career.
It makes sense. Lil Wayne's eldest daughter was born in '98. The first Hot Boys album came out in '97 and Lil Wayne's first solo studio album came out in '99.
@@GhostfaceDylanWayne’s first album came out in 1995 but it was a group album. He used to be called Baby D & there was another rapper called Lil Doogie, the group was callled The B.G.’z. Baby D later became Lil Wayne & Lil Doogie became B.G. (he’s also in the Hot Boys too)
Lil Wayne is a straight boss. He got the lyrics, tha fakie shoves, he rockin the guitar, tatted face, he honoring the legacy of his mentor, chiefin' blunts; this is bringing tears to my eyes. And I'm one of the toughest, hardest bosses, and best looking muthas of all time!
Im just glad Wayne found skateboarding. As soon as he found skateboarding he stopped doing lean. Just genuinely happy for him. I always loved Tony & Wayne. Y'all know the saying. SKATE OR DIE 💜
@@static_wi9398His tunes got better when he got off that shit. He was using it as a crutch but it was more like a wheelchair in my opinion. Can't run in a wheelchair.
I saw this and thought, “Woah, Tony Hawk x Lil Wayne. This must have 10 million views already.” Then I remembered what year it was and that i’m old now 😂
The humility it takes for someone who has made it in an industry where appearance is almost everything, to take something up like skateboarding is inspiring. Props Wayne. Also! Jason's excitement on talking about Vert Skating with Wayne was awesome!
My first trick was a kickflip after learning ollie's and 180s. Took frickin HOURS and I screamed when it landed. 30 years later and it's still my favorite trick. Respect to Tony and Jason for embracing Wayne, who I now know is a proper skater. 🤜💥🤛
I love this as a skater since 13 y/o i'm 35 now seeing all my friends fall off this shit makes me fuck with lil wayne that much more as a person not even an artist.. Respect ❤
I don’t know if I am more excited that Jason knocked out the ads this week or that Lil Wayne was the guest. It’s actually friggin awesome to see him looking more confident doing the ads broken up bit by bit.
55:10 This moment genuinely made me smile.. Grew up playing THPS and I could only imagine how surreal it must have been to skate at the same location! What a dope conversation 🔥🔥
how can you not love lil Wayne the journey this man went through and all the growing he did as a man is inspiring. Such a humble and truly genuine soul. I am glad I got to witness his whole journey so far from Da block is hot to skating Wayne the man is 1 in a million. Also gotta love how he never put that roach down even though it wasn't lit. WEEZY is the 🐐
Alright. When I first heard Lil Wayne was skating I instantly thought of a Kardasian in a Metallica shirt. This is not that - He is legit. And now he has a new fan.
They both really blew up during the same era so they can relate alot. Im 36 and i am from New Orleans and i remember vividly listening to different Cash Money albums while playing Tony Hawk lol
I didnt know how into skating lil wayne was, i just know that he skates. thats really all that mattered. but to hear him talk about just how much he loves it. thats too dope. He is funny as shit, and has a crazy good way of explaining things. Plus he putting is team in the spotlight to show they are hardcore skilled skaters. Much respect to lil wayne, and you guys for an awesome interview.
It truly admire Wayne for developing the itch for skating like we all have, and even when I thought it was just gonna be like a phase thing for him, dude is still skating daily and that is heart warming for me. Don’t matter who you are or where you come from, if you get that itch…it’s on! 100% skater SK8 or DIE
mannnnn when i first heard lil' wayne skated i thought "oh great just another dude trying to leach off skateboarding" (Very negative thought to have about a dude you don't know) and then I got to meet him and skate with him at Skatepark of Tampa years ago. Wayne is one of the most GENUINE and rad dudes. you could tell he LOVES skateboarding and that is rad. i was already a fan of his music, but I became of fan of him as a human. Class Act for sure.
I'm not much into the Skating community, or a big fan of Lil' Wayne, just the usual stuff. But this was an amazing episode to listen to. The energy, dedication and just the whole vibe is magnetic to listen to!
I really like a lot of shit he said too. Like when he did that interview with that cop. Oh my God what a dickhead! He seems like a genuinely good dude. Sarcastic as shit. But also, generally nice to us normal folks.
I remember when Wayne started skating, I hated it. I thought he was just trying to do some trendy stuff, but I was way wrong. That dude loves the sport.

he looks younger and looks healthy from the last time I saw him 4-5 years ago.
Yes he had that lawsuit and stuff now he’s richer than ever and he’s free of doing what he wants
That drink had him on that Carolina lean
It gotta be early in the day. A ounce or so from this point he’ll look normal 😂
@@Pdubb19factsss and he openly talked abt it and everyone didn’t care🤣 seemingly

He’s being smart & strategic. By doing this he’s keeping his music in the ears of the new generation
@@PandaGryllz Don Henley should learn from that!

Mad props to Lil Wayne for repping skating and skaters, opening doors for more skaters! 👊🏻

Well he already opened it for rap. Hip hop. Wayne a legend.
@NukeSonyTwice Your whole existence is built on hating peoplw better than you... how sad.
Wayne the type to hold an unlit blunt in his hand for over an hour straight
Did Lil Wayne just clear all of us to use his tunes, I'm pretty sure Lil Wayne just cleared all skaters to use his songs. What a fuckin hero
Yeah that's dope! I have a band called Love Core and we don't care either! Use our music, please!
@@JasonMeadswill do!
Well ya still have to go through legal. What he was saying more so as music is cut throat and people will need to be paid. Projects of note, you will still have to pay for clearing just not a zillion dollars as he said
@@PinkuStyle I was half kidding, I know there's more to it than just using whatever without consent.
Its crazy to hear he had to 'clear' his own music for his own video.

👏👏👏👏 well said!

Lil Wayne is a time capsule in my life.
Money On My Mind was playing the first time I smoked weed in HS. My buddy gave me a gas mask, put the bud in the bowl, and I coughed the cherry out in the car.
Comfortable was playing the first time I got laid after a dance.

@@GhostfaceDylanWayne’s first album came out in 1995 but it was a group album. He used to be called Baby D & there was another rapper called Lil Doogie, the group was callled The B.G.’z. Baby D later became Lil Wayne & Lil Doogie became B.G. (he’s also in the Hot Boys too)
absolutely nothing crazy about that 🤨
This pods a gem. Crazy how it hasnt blown up. I wasborn in 95. Both of my goats talking in this capacity is truly a blessing to watch thank you
Wayne probably loved that you didn’t really talk about music at all. He has to do that enough.
Lil Wayne is a straight boss. He got the lyrics, tha fakie shoves, he rockin the guitar, tatted face, he honoring the legacy of his mentor, chiefin' blunts; this is bringing tears to my eyes. And I'm one of the toughest, hardest bosses, and best looking muthas of all time!
never seen someone talking positive about face tats tbh😂
i like that you think otherwise than most people
I love Wayne but he can‘t play guitar at all 😂
Your 540 at Vert Alert made me cry tears of joy!!! #LEGEND
Skating is the only community where introverts can go and be happy to be socialising.
So much love for lil wayne. After all waynes accomplishments he remains so humble and down to earth
He's one of us for sure.
Feel like this is the happiest I’ve ever seen lil Wayne “publicly” amazing, makes me happy
All jokes aside, this is one of the best skate interviews I’ve ever seen! Surreal and wholesome.
Damn, lil Wayne really fucking loves to skate.
I thought the same thing...most genuine ive seen him do an interview ever
TAPPING IN 🔥🎤🛹
Didn’t even know Hawk had his own podcast. What an introduction 👍🏾
Same here! Supercool. Love both these guys.
Im just glad Wayne found skateboarding. As soon as he found skateboarding he stopped doing lean. Just genuinely happy for him. I always loved Tony & Wayne. Y'all know the saying. SKATE OR DIE 💜
He still does lean.
@@cantskateswitchlikethatwhy you lying? He gave that shit up years ago 😂
@@static_wi9398His tunes got better when he got off that shit. He was using it as a crutch but it was more like a wheelchair in my opinion. Can't run in a wheelchair.
How does this podcast not have more views? Its way better than 90% of the stuff out there.
I saw this and thought, “Woah, Tony Hawk x Lil Wayne. This must have 10 million views already.” Then I remembered what year it was and that i’m old now 😂
The humility it takes for someone who has made it in an industry where appearance is almost everything, to take something up like skateboarding is inspiring. Props Wayne.
Also! Jason's excitement on talking about Vert Skating with Wayne was awesome!
wayne is a legend. I'd cry tears of joy to skate with him.
The way that Lil Wayne describes his mind during skating is exactly how I feel when riding my motorcycle
Wayne is so humble this interview is legendary.
My first trick was a kickflip after learning ollie's and 180s. Took frickin HOURS and I screamed when it landed.
30 years later and it's still my favorite trick.
Respect to Tony and Jason for embracing Wayne, who I now know is a proper skater.
🤜💥🤛
I would have to say hands down. This was one of the best podcasts. I have listened in a long time. The one and only. Hawk 🦅 the Wolf 🐺 and Wayne💯
Skate Wayne!!!!!! Best guest by far & best rapper alive!
this was unbelievably enjoyable to listen to, PLEASE have him on more often. you can see in his eyes how much he loves skating
I love this as a skater since 13 y/o i'm 35 now seeing all my friends fall off this shit makes me fuck with lil wayne that much more as a person not even an artist.. Respect ❤
I don’t know if I am more excited that Jason knocked out the ads this week or that Lil Wayne was the guest. It’s actually friggin awesome to see him looking more confident doing the ads broken up bit by bit.
This is the first interview I've ever seen him enjoy.
Ive always wanted to know what his skater origin story was. So pure. Skating is a special kind of magic
The podcast was probably Top 3 in the category of “collabs I never knew I needed”. ✊🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
wttttfffffff dudes you making me happyyyyyy…its 6 am here and im already hyped for this. please never stop this pod ❤❤❤❤thank you guys
@31:14 the cold plunge section, the laughter of everyone made me happy too. This episode made me like Lil Wayne a lot more. He so cool.
55:10 This moment genuinely made me smile.. Grew up playing THPS and I could only imagine how surreal it must have been to skate at the same location! What a dope conversation 🔥🔥
That solitude, that peace of mind, that joy of doing something just for you.... 'The Revolution Will Not Be Televised'
how can you not love lil Wayne the journey this man went through and all the growing he did as a man is inspiring. Such a humble and truly genuine soul. I am glad I got to witness his whole journey so far from Da block is hot to skating Wayne the man is 1 in a million. Also gotta love how he never put that roach down even though it wasn't lit. WEEZY is the 🐐
Alright. When I first heard Lil Wayne was skating I instantly thought of a Kardasian in a Metallica shirt. This is not that - He is legit.
And now he has a new fan.
The more I listen to this podcast, the more I start to like Lil Wayne. Real g
They both really blew up during the same era so they can relate alot. Im 36 and i am from New Orleans and i remember vividly listening to different Cash Money albums while playing Tony Hawk lol
Awesome! Super stoked for this podcast.
This is pure gold. These guys made my childhood and seeing them together hanging out, makes me love them even more
I didnt know how into skating lil wayne was, i just know that he skates. thats really all that mattered. but to hear him talk about just how much he loves it. thats too dope. He is funny as shit, and has a crazy good way of explaining things. Plus he putting is team in the spotlight to show they are hardcore skilled skaters. Much respect to lil wayne, and you guys for an awesome interview.
Honestly one of the best skate interviews ever. Wayne's passion for skating is 100% real and it's incredible to listen to.
Love this episode. I've been dying to hear Wayne really talk about skating. Could you guys get Antwuan Dixon on in the future?
lil wayne has been and will always be my favorite rapper ever I still listen to all his songs all of em new and old
The F is for Fakie Shuv
Hahaha!

I love how yall broke down the psychology of skateboarding! This is revolutionary.
So much respect to Wayne, this was an amazing interview. Had me smiling the whole time.
It truly admire Wayne for developing the itch for skating like we all have, and even when I thought it was just gonna be like a phase thing for him, dude is still skating daily and that is heart warming for me. Don’t matter who you are or where you come from, if you get that itch…it’s on! 100% skater SK8 or DIE
Lil Wayne is such a humble guy! I really respect that!
mannnnn when i first heard lil' wayne skated i thought "oh great just another dude trying to leach off skateboarding" (Very negative thought to have about a dude you don't know) and then I got to meet him and skate with him at Skatepark of Tampa years ago. Wayne is one of the most GENUINE and rad dudes. you could tell he LOVES skateboarding and that is rad. i was already a fan of his music, but I became of fan of him as a human. Class Act for sure.
So cool how skateboarding brings so many people together!❤
I'm not much into the Skating community, or a big fan of Lil' Wayne, just the usual stuff.
But this was an amazing episode to listen to. The energy, dedication and just the whole vibe is magnetic to listen to!
lil Wayne is genuinely a figure of artistry that should be celebrated
I really like a lot of shit he said too. Like when he did that interview with that cop. Oh my God what a dickhead! He seems like a genuinely good dude. Sarcastic as shit. But also, generally nice to us normal folks.
Tbh i love this . I like hearing lil wayne speak 🗣️ and share more of his happiness in what he does beyond the music .
This is so sick! My childhood all in one podcast room 😂
Wayne is such a genuine dude. No bullshit about him whatsoever
I remember when Wayne started skating, I hated it. I thought he was just trying to do some trendy stuff, but I was way wrong. That dude loves the sport.
I'm glad he kept skating I am also glad he stopped fucking with the guitar 😂
