Waka Flocka Says Rick Ross Stole His Sound Waka Flocka is going hard on these rappers! In an interview with Complex , everyone’s favorite screamer decided to air out some steam over how people perceive him. “What are y’all gonna say now? Jay-Z stupid as hell? My sound is wack? You gonna say that? They love the sound. They can’t run away from it. That shit re-sparked n—as’ careers. My sound put life into a lot of people’s careers. I feel like my sound changed hip-hop. Period,” Waka told the magazine. “It’s crazy when I came out with it, everybody laughed at it, but the next year everybody’s doing it. They getting credit for the sh– you started. You be like, ‘Damn, how is this n—a a genius for doing something I started?’ Then he decided to go in on Rick Ross: “This n—a out here making 30 f—ing songs with your sound,” Flocka charged. “He watering it down, just putting words together that sounded good. Sh– would be harder if it was the truth.” We can’t wait to hear Rozay’s response. This could get interesting.
‘He watering it down, just putting words together that sounded good,’ Waka tells Complex magazine. By Rob Markman Waka Flocka Flame Photo: Getty Images Waka Flocka Flame doesn’t dabble in rap politics. The outspoken Atlanta rap star hasn’t yet mastered the art of being diplomatic and he most likely never will. In his most recent interview with Complex magazine, Waka weighed in on Jay-Z, Kanye West, Rick Ross and other rappers he feels have capitalized off of his rowdy, down-bottom sound. “What are y’all gonna say now? Jay-Z stupid as hell? My sound is wack? You gonna say that? They love the sound. They can’t run away from it. That shit re-sparked n—as’ careers. My sound put life into a lot of people’s careers. I feel like my sound changed hip-hop. Period,” Waka told the magazine. “It’s crazy when I came out with it, everybody laughed at it, but the next year everybody’s doing it. They getting credit for the sh– you started. You be like, ‘Damn, how is this n—a a genius for doing something I started?’ ” Flocka first emerged in 2009 with “O Let’s Do It,” a riot-starting jam fueled by a mix of sporadic horn stabs and thumping bass. His next single, the Lex Luger -produced “Hard in the Paint,” would introduce rap fans to a refreshing-yet-schizophrenic sound. By 2010, the horrific synth lines and kinetic drum patterns became rap’s hottest sound and Luger one of the most in-demand producers. Kanye tapped Waka’s sound scientist on the Throne’s “H.A.M.” single. Rick Ross, who first collaborated with Waka on his “O Let’s Do It” remix, went on to make a number of hits with Lex, most notably “B.M.F. (Blowin’ Money Fast).” In just two years, Luger has crafted tracks with Wiz Khalifa, Juicy J, 2 Chainz, Wale, Mac Miller and Ace Hood. Waka, who will release his new album Triple F Life on Tuesday, doesn’t mention Ross by name, but suggests that the Maybach Music boss swiped his signature sound. “This n—a out here making 30 fucking songs with your sound,” Flocka charged. “He watering it down, just putting words together that sounded good. Sh– would be harder if it was the truth.” Thirty songs may be a stretch, but still Waka is not flattered by what he sees as imitation. “That sh– made me tight. N—as built labels off our sound — like, literally. You know how many n—as sound like Lex Luger and Southside?” he asked rhetorically, referencing his second in-house producer Southside. “I go in n—as’ studios, all their beats sound like my producers. I be like, What the f—?” Do you believe Rick Ross swiped Waka Flocka Flame’s sound? Share your opinion in the comments! Related Artists Waka Flocka Flame Rick Ross

‘I don’t have problems with people, because if I do, I address it,’ Wiz tells ‘RapFix Live.’ By Rob Markman Wiz Khalifa on “RapFix Live” Photo: Natasha Chandel/ MTV News Wiz Khalifa isn’t interested in beefing with Waka Flocka Flame . In fact, he isn’t interested in beefing with anyone. “I don’t have problems with people, because if I do, I address it,” he said when he appeared on Wednesday’s “RapFix Live.” “If I feel someone disrespected me or if I feel like somebody was mentioning me in an indirect way I’ma find out how to talk to that person and then we’ll squash it from there.” There have been rumors of a Wiz and Waka tiff, but it wasn’t until Flocka’s December interview with DJ Kay Slay on his Shade 45 satellite radio show that eyebrows began to rise. During the interview, Waka said that Wiz had “no swag” and “hyped” his way to the top. Rather than address his feelings in the media, Khalifa said he’d rather wait to speak to the “O Let’s Do It” rapper face to face. “What would I say to him? I really want to say it to him. We’ll save it for that, it don’t gotta be a public thing. It don’t gotta be a peace meeting or nothing like that.” On Tuesday, Waka appeared on Angie Martinez’s Hot 97 radio show in New York, and when he was asked about his problems with Wiz, Flocka said the issue was “deaded,” but he didn’t back down from his original statement. “I voiced my opinion because it’s true and it’s facts,” he said before making some type of amends. “That’s a nice guy he makes good music, I got cousins who like his music.” Whatever the case, Wiz won’t feed into the negativity. “I never felt no ill will, he has his lane and when his songs come on in the club, people go crazy,” Wiz said. “And people like to get high to Wiz Khalifa, so get used to it, baby.” Do you believe that there is serious underlying beef between Wiz Khalifa and Waka Flocka or is it all just media hype?

Beyonce was spotted shopping for Christmas gifts for her unborn baby yesterday. She revealed that she’s been piling presents under the tree while awaiting the little one’s arrival. However, the star and her hubby Jay-Z are still keeping mum on whether she’s expecting a boy or a girl: “I can’t say, it has to be a surprise! Seriously, though, we both keep seeing super-cute stuff for the baby, so I am sure even our presents for each other will involve the baby in some way!” “Also Kelly [Rowland] has been so busy buying gifts for the baby, I think she might forget to buy for me this year! She is always seeing cute gifts for the baby in London.” For the holiday, “I will be with family. We are both so busy throughout the year that Christmas is just a time to relax with family and count the many blessings in your life. Christmas Day is a no-TV zone.
