Oh, Wezzy F. Please Say the Baby Carter, you have stuck your foot all the way back to your esophagus with this one. A few weeks after the Summer Jam fiasco involving Hot 97 DJ Peter Rosenberg and Nicki Minaj, which resulted in YMCMB CEO Lil Wayne pulling the “Starships” rapper/singer out of the show, he’s speaking on why he made the highly controversial executive decision.

In an interview with MTV News he stated in what appears to be a sober manner:

“First of all, I approached the situation like this: that’s a female. First and foremost Nicki Minaj is a female. I don’t know what anyone else believes but I believe females deserve the ultimate respect at all times. No matter what, when, where or how. So, as soon as she called me and said that she felt disrespected, I just declined everything. I pulled her from the show because first of all no person that works with me will be disrespected in my presence as long as I’m on this planet. And like I said, she’s a female first and foremost so I expected the red carpet…in her manner the pink carpet to be laid out. It’s just an executive move. No bad feelings, no hard feelings, like I said in my opinion she said she was disrespected [and] that’s a woman. I feel like a woman should be respected at all times. Therefore I believe that I made the right decision.”

FYI, there’s video proof that those words did actually come out of his mouth too.

I respect his thinking but I’d like him to apply that logic just a tad bit broader, like to his own music the next time he gets an itch to talk about what b**** or h*e is slobbing, screwing, or bouncing on something. I also still don’t think Rosenberg’s comment had anything to do with Nicki Minaj being a woman. He could be the type of guy to only take shots at a girl because he’s scared of a male MC but I think he pretty much said what everybody was thinking, nobody wanted to hear that “wack a** Starships track.”
