Lil Wayne to join Joel Madden on Ep. 50 of Artist Friendly

Artist Friendly has reached a major milestone. Following conversations with Movements’ Patrick Miranda, the Maine’s John O’Callaghan, and Gavin Magnus, Lil Wayne will join Joel Madden to celebrate the 50th episode of the series.

Wayne, who joined Good Charlotte onstage for “Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous” at When We Were Young back in October, has shifted from an off-the-wall rapper — always packing a punchline — to an elder statesman who can still spin woozy bars. After releasing his platinum debut album, Tha Block Is Hot, when he was 17, Wayne continued to make his mark with Tha Carter series, which boasts bonafide classics like “A Milli,” “6 Foot 7 Foot,” and “Hustler Musik.” All these years later, Wayne remains inspired, as evinced by his latest project, Welcome 2 Collegrove, a collaborative LP with 2 Chainz, that was released in November.
