Despite being great with words | what has Lil Wayne speechless?

MC Hammer - I am reading comments on both sides, it's not about that, I have seen all of that before. There is an opportunity to say at some point (that) we (should move) onto the next thing. You know, Jay took his shot and I answered. Now let's move on.

Kanye West - I went up there to express how I was empathetic to Bush because I labeled him a racist and years later I got labeled as a racist.... While I was trying to give the interview they started playing the "MTV" under me with audio! I don't mess with Matt Lauer or the Today Show.

Lloyd Banks - I was completely ready to say f*ck it. 50 [Cent's] whole thing was just, 'Push on, push on.' But he didn't grow up with his mother and his father. Seeing my life pass before my eyes, it was like, no matter how much sh*t you have or how good you're doing, you're going to go through this and be devastated.

Lil Wayne - Well ain’t nothing going on in here but the time, which seems like it’s taking forever. I’m trying to make the most out of every second tho, mentally. There’s some pretty cool people in here. Even though this isn’t a cool place to be. I’ve learned plenty already and the best lesson is to not come back.

Denzel Washington - The fear factor is up there. It's part of the job. You know they need the shots. You know what you're signing up for. You try to do as little as possible. They make it as safe for you as they can and you go for it.

19 / 20

Drake - It's called 'In the Morning.' It's like a record for the girls. Me and him will probably have many opportunities to rap, and try and out-rap each other. But it's not about entertaining the 'who's better?' debate that I'm sure everybody else is engaged in.

Keyshia Cole - Me and Eminem doing a collaboration? I love that idea.
