Show Notes
In a captivating conversation with journalist Andre Gee, filmmaker Adam Bhala Lough shares a wild tale from the late 2000s about Lil Waynes tour bus. Initially, Drake was deemed too dorky and was barred from the bus, which was frequented by armed Blood gang members. However, Drakes rise to fame quickly changed the dynamics, and he became a natural fit with the crew. Loughs unreleased documentary, The Carter, faced legal issues when Wayne sued for $50 million, allegedly to remove scenes of him drinking lean. The films production also had its share of drama, with Harvey Weinstein and Steve Bannons company initially backing it before dropping out. Quincy Jones III later stepped in. Lough now aims to release a sequel using footage from 2002 to 2004, hoping for an official drop after all these years.
