Rolling Stone Gives Lil Wayne Props
Lil Wayne seems like the odd man out in the “Top 100 Agents of Change” list published in a recent edition of Rolling Stone magazine.
The 26-year old tattooed, unapologetically stoned rapper claims the #19 spot (although the rank means nothing on a scale of importance) and is given props along with other honored musical ingenues: Bono, Neil Young, Radiohead, fellow hip-hop stars Kayne West & M.I.A., Taylor Swift and producer Brian Eno.
But why?! Rolling Stone applauds his prolific rap career that sprung from years of hoofing mixed tapes in New Orleans to the point where his brashness is his signature, both personally and professionally. He has a new “rock” album coming out this May. And he’s a rapper, a gangster and a pothead… he doesn’t care who knows it!
