In an interview during ESPN'S First Take at NBA All Star-Weekend, the rapper addressed the recent controversy in Florida. It was previously reported that a Florida teacher was suspended after giving his eighth grade students lyrics to Wayne's "6 Foot 7 Foot" single as homework.
The rapper believes that his singles aren't meant to be taught, especially to children. He discusses the lyrics at the 7:50 mark.
"I'd never be embarrassed by anything I say because I say it and I mean it," Lil Wayne said. "But I don't think that kids—I mean, I don't think that you should be trying to teach it any way to kids because I don't record it and say it for kids to listen to it, but they will hear it. But it's a difference between hearing and listening. You know? So, not that it's okay for them to hear it, but if they hear it then so be it. They hear it. But when you trying to teach them to listen to it that's a difference and I don't try to teach them that. I just—I do what I do. And I don't think that would be right for you to try and teach kids what I'm saying."
The rapper also talked about who he's gunning for on the big game and who believes will take the big MVP award.
