During a recent episode of Let’s Rap About It, Fabolous recalled a peculiar situation involving Lil Wayne’s daughter, Reginae Carter. As the “Can’t Let Yo Go” rapper explains it, he was posted up in the club, as was Reginae and her crew. At some point during the night, while Fab was smoking (while he never explicitly said marijuana, but one could assume that’s what he was referring to), Reginae nudged him and asked if she could partake; however, Fab quickly shut that down.”One time we was at a club or somethin’, and I was smoking, and she was like, ‘let me hit it,’ [and] I’m like, ‘Nah.’ I’m not passing Wayne’s daughter nothing,” Fab said.
Along with being the daughter of one of his peers, Reginae is a longtime friend of his stepdaughter, Taina. So it makes sense why the rapper might not be interested in toking up with the 27-year-old. When The Neighborhood Talk reposted the interview, the comment section was flooded with replies, with some agreeing with Fab’s course of action, and others arguing the rapper should’ve kept the story to himself. “Much respect!!!!!!! Because some men just don’t care now & days!!!!!!! one person wrote. Another added, “Y’all embarrassed for Reginae😂😂 she’ll be okay…” while a third wrote, “If you really wanted to protect Wayne’s daughter, you wouldn’t mention it AT ALL! 🙄”
Wayne And Fabolous’ Relationship
Lil Wayne and Fabolous have had quite the working relationship, collaborating on several notable tracks, including 2008’s “You Ain’t Got Nuthin” and 2009’s “Salute.” Last year, during a sit-down with the 7 PM in Brooklyn podcast, Fab shared his admiration for the New Orleans native and spoke about his influence on the 2000s mixtape era. In his opinion, despite all that Wayne has given to the rap genre, his influence goes unnoticed. “There’s a lot of influence with Lil Wayne [and] I think he not always recognized for [it] as far as his footprint on the game.”
As the rapper continues, he notes how Wayne’s 2000s aesthetic is being replicated among younger rappers unbeknownst to them. “He influenced a lot…” Fab continued. “Now you see it, it’s either a norm or connected to somebody else, but it really came from like the grandfather of it, ya know what I’m saying?… The face tatts, or the dreads, or the skinny jeans…all of that came from a lineage of Wayne bringing that into the game…”
