Lil Wayne Responds To Luke

Veteran Miami rappers Trick Daddy and Luther "Luke" Campbell have both voiced their criticisms of hip-hop superstar Lil Wayne's recent disrespectful rant aimed at the Miami Heat. In an interview with 99 Jamz, Wayne was asked how he felt about Luke's opinion, in particular, and the YMCMB star was defiant.

“I can't change nobody's personal opinion. I can't change nobody's personal view,” said Wayne. “I can just keep doing what I do and keep putting food on the table for my family and that's what I'm going to do no matter what."

“I haven't [read Luke's letter], but I already know how he feels about me,” continued Wayne. “I've never met him actually. ...Ever since I got here, there were billboards and signs saying, ‘Lil Wayne, Go Back Home,’ you know what I mean? And I didn't do anything.”

“This is Miami, I can't move,” Wayne added. “I got the best skate weather, ever, down here. ... Like I said, the main thing I really want to get out there is that I do apologize for the misunderstanding to the city of Miami. I love everyone here, it's just I'm passionate about sports and I felt very disrespected, that's all. I felt very, very disrespected.”

Luke Becomes High School Football Coach

Luther "Uncle Luke" Campbell has been officially certified to be a high school football coach. The former 2 Live Crew frontman has been working as an assistant, and according to AllHipHop, he finally attained his certification. The Florida Department of Education had withheld his status previously due to his raunchy reputation.

An administrative judge in Tallahassee certified Campbell as a head coach after he meets a series of conditions. He must pass ethics classes, prove that his child support payments are up-to-date and warn the judge up to 30 days in a advance when he plans to perform any sexually explicit material.

He's been an assistant for four years at two high schools in Liberty City.

Luke Isn't Backing Down

Luther "Luke" Campbell is not backing off his decree to superstar rappers like Diddy and Lil Wayne. The Miami bass pioneer and former 2 Live Crew frontman blasted his fellow hip hop stars for coming to his city to party and blow money but don't invest in the community in any way.

In an interview with DJ Khaled, Luke continued his criticisms.

"I look at you and I look at myself, just like I look at [Pitbull], Trick [Daddy] and all those guys, I've been a part of their lives," Luke told DJ Khaled. "You, unfortunately, you have a special thing. You're bringing a lot of guys down here. A lot of guys are coming here, moving here because you showing love -- but when you come down here to live and don't do anything for the community, that becomes a problem...Anybody that's coming here, plan on moving here, whether its Puff Daddy, Lil' Wayne, or whoever it may be, they need to understand that. They need to understand if you gonna be part of this community you got to be fully part of the community. You can't just come here. You don't need to be here just sitting here squatting, eating our food and partying. Do something in the community."

Lil Wayne Responds To Luke

Lil Wayne has responded to criticism from Uncle Luke after the 2 Live Crew head previously called him out.


As previously reported, Luke wrote a lengthy article for the Miami New Times, threatening Lil Wayne, DJ Khaled, Diddy and any other rappers in Miami that are not active contributors to the city.


He writes,
"I'm tired of seeing these cats using up our beaches, soaking up our sunshine, taking over the nightclubs, and sleeping with our women without investing anything into the community. I want to know when Lil Wayne is going to do more than show up courtside at the American Airlines Arena.

They rap in their songs about King of Diamonds and LIV nightclub, where Lil Wayne was partying it up with Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks after they beat the Miami Heat for the NBA championship.


I want to see them doing fundraisers to help youth sports and after school programs. I want to see them at FCAT rallies. I want to see them do like Pitbull who works closely with the Kiwanis Club in Little Havana and DJ Irie who puts on a charity weekend for the Make-A-Wish Foundation."


Now Lil Wayne has responded to Luke's allegations and even fired a shot at DJ Khlaed himself.

Luke Calls Out Diddy & Lil Wayne?

Luke Campbell has had enough. The Miami bass pioneer-turned-mayoral hopeful-turned-high school football coach called out rappers for coming to Miami to party without giving anything back to the community. The rapper took to his blog to blast several notable rap stars for what he feels is disrespect to his city.

"I've got a message for Lil Wayne, his Cash Money Brothers, DJ Khaled, Puff Daddy and all the rappers from other parts of the country who now live in Miami," he wrote October 4th. "I'm tired of seeing these cats using up our beaches, soaking up our sunshine, taking over the nightclubs, and sleeping with our women without investing anything into the community. I want to know when Lil Wayne is going to do more than show up courtside at the American Airlines Arena. H*ll, it's not like he paid for them anyway. You know he got comped. This free loading and mooching of my city has got to stop. There used to be a day when out of town rappers were scared to throw their weight around Miami. It didn't matter if they were coming from New York or Los Angeles, they knew better than to act like they owned this mother f*cker."

"I'm giving them a deadline," he added. "They got until January 1. If I don't see them giving back to the Magic City, I'm gonna have their Miami cards revoked. They won't be getting into any more nightclubs. They won't be able to go near our women. And Lil Wayne is gonna have to find floor seats for New Orleans Hornets home games because he won't be allowed inside the Triple A."
