On last Tuesday night (June 12), Lil Wayne made appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. They re-run the show last night. Wayne actually made a belated appearance because Kimmel points out at the beginning of the interview, Wayne was supposed to appear last year and canceled (to which the rapper said, "honestly, I really don't know what happened"). Then again, Weezy was scheduled for the program in March, to support the release of his album I Am Not A Human Being 2, but was hospitalized for seizures related to epilepsy.
"May I ask what happened to you?" Kimmel said, "Because I think we were worried that you were going to die. Did you know that everyone thought you were going to die?"
The very question made Wayne laugh almost uncontrollably, as he said he did not know that.
It was the first to many fits of laughter for Wayne on the show, who was in probably the best humor he's ever been in for an interview. In the history Weezy's interviews.
Wayne did get serious to address his epilepsy, saying, "It's a private medical matter that we've been dealing with my whole life. We're so used to it happening so my doctors prepped all my homies and now they know that..."
"I would have loved to be at that meeting," Kimmel interrupted. "Who is that is Dr. Dre your physician?"
Kimmel ask, "Do you remember me visiting you?" and then he asked "Lebron James visit you?," Wayne stated, "No. But he sent his concerns." Kimmel then goes, "Supposedly you got banned from Miami Heat, from their stadium." Wayne: "No, they said I'm allow back there but I don't think they want me there."
Wayne also insisted he's still planning on his retirement, but wants it to be after Tha Carter V. That's not in the too-near future, however, because he's got projects with his father and Birdman in mind first. But Wayne was clear: This will be his first and only retirement.
Kimmel: "What would do you do when you retire? Wal-Mart Greeter?" Lil Wayne: "Everything that I never got a chance to do."
