Lil Wayne said he doesn't feel connected with the Black Lives Matter movement when asked about it during a Nightline interview. "I don't feel connected to a damn thing that ain't got nothin' to do with me. If you do, you crazy as shit," Wayne added, before taking red cloth out of his back pocket. I'm connected to this flag right fucking here, because I'm connected. I'm a gangbanger now," The Grammy Award-winner then was asked if he regretted earlier comments in which he told Fox Sports there's "no such thing as racism." "I don't even know why you put a name on it. It's not a name. It's not 'whatever, whatever.' It's somebody got shot by a policeman for a fucked up reason ... I am a young, black, rich motherfucker. If that don't let you know that America understand black motherfuckers matter these days, I don't know what it is," The entire interview took three years and multiple segments to produce.
