Most amazing thing I learned from quickly scanning the archives: Lil’ Wayne has considered what his entrance music would be if he were a closer or a batter for a major league baseball team.  What are his selections?  If given one-thousand guesses, I doubt I would’ve guessed either of them…

“I’ve thought about it, and my song would be “Closing Time” by that group Semisonic. You know the one: Closing Tiiiiiiiime. Except I’d just have that loop over and over again “Closing Tiiiiiiime, Closing Tiiiiiiiime” while I came in from the bullpen. And I wouldn’t run to the mound; I’d walk just to soak it all in. And for the away games it wouldn’t matter that I didn’t get to hear my song because I’d hear all the fans booing me and that would be enough to get me going.

I know I’ve told you before I’d use “Purple Rain” by Prince when I went to hit because it puts me a certain mood, and I think it puts everyone in a certain mood like where they just feel good and relaxed. And then BAM I’d hit it out and put them to sleep.”

Did I just read that, or did I somehow get transported into a Luis Bunuel or David Lynch movie?

Thank God for Lil’ Wayne, a truly interesting celebrity.
