Lil B gave shout outs to Lil Wayne and Mack Maine for working with him recently: “I want to give a big shout out to Mack Maine, and to Lil Wayne. Mack Maine, I definitely give him a shout out because he was a big pivotal part of bringing me and Lil Wayne together. Being in the studio with Lil Wayne and being around him for the time that I was going to dinner and stuff like that. Just being embraced by him. To hug Lil Wayne. In 6th grade, I had a project, an iSearch project, this was middle school, and I put Lil Wayne on the cover. So to work so hard to be independent, to have no corporate backing, you know, working with Wayne and going back to moms house. I worked with then went back to the hood, went back to moms house, you know what I'm saying, that's love that shows that you can be yourself.”
