After the list was released, a very upset Wale called a staff of the magazine to complain. During the 3-minutes phone which took place on Wednesday Dec 11, which Complex magazine has since posted online, Wale said Complex had a personal bias against him, then started shouting and making threats.
“Do you think y'all being a responsible publication by continuously to fuckin' like...do all that petty shit? At this point, you know it’s got to be personal. You telling me it’s not personal. It’s like a bold face lie. To be omitted from every type of list that y’all do or be at the bottom of it or every type of way that y’all can omit me, ya will. You mean to tell me Juicy J album better than mine?. Is that what you trying to tell me?”Before the staff had a chance to respond, Wale started making threats.
“I swear to God I’ll come to that office and start knocking ni**as the fuck out,” he screamed. “Alright, I’ll see y’all tomorrow. How about that? Get the security ready.”Listen to phone conversation after the cut...
Wait for your time boy

ReplyDeleteHe shouldn't these Fakas! His Album is one of the Best top 10 albums of the year.
ReplyDeleteNice one
ReplyDeleteWhat an awkward Pride.he can aswell run his own magazine-he'll cm out tops then. Bitch! ~VIA says so~
ReplyDeleteIf this is his civility, I'd hate to see his anger. Dumb. Begging for recognition from a no name magazine and risking jail time for making threats. Gotta give it to Kanye for directing his anger at the Grammys for failing to reward him with the highest honor in music. He's not wasting his energy on scraps.
ReplyDeleteBloody civilian!!waiting D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ worry all dis rappers self? 2day dis rapper say dis 2morrow dat rapper says dat..... Gosh I'm tired of all dis#strongface#

ReplyDeleteWale is my guy anytime that's No.1 and He should be among the Top 30 albums, have listened to a few tracks in his GIFTED album and can attest to the fact he did a good Job. DoubleMG winning!
ReplyDeleteSTAR-BOYY
Well, Juicy J had a bigger lead single than he did. This is going to bring some beef with him and Juicy J.
ReplyDeleteWell, Juicy J had a bigger lead single.
ReplyDeleteWhat the f**k do these artistes think they are...you ain't on their list, so what? Move the f**k on and release a better album. Besides, he really isn't a spectacular rapper #MyOpinion.

It's like there is a new kind of shit these rappers smoke these days.
ReplyDeleteYou can take a boy out of Nigeria, but you can't take Nigeria out of the boy. That's pure ghetto sh*t there!
ReplyDeleteWait oo,but wetin Wale dey even sing sef,abeg park well oo!!!
ReplyDeleteEverything wake said is true. How the fuck is juicy js album better than his. As far as I'm concerned the gifted was even better than yeezus. All they are doing us promoting ghetto ignorant shit like he said. How the fuck is some talking about codeine on every track of his album better that a person rapping about love and the struggle or a people. I feel u wale.
ReplyDeleteBut I can't fathom hw "Stay Trippy" is better Than "The Gifted"....Juicy J go vex shaaa...
ReplyDeleteOoopsss....i havnt heard any of hz tracks... hZ collabo wit lady gaga z terrible!!!
ReplyDeletesome1 who can fooooooooooooool him stupid self to sing with that stupid senseless fool wizkid on 'Drop' no body wanna talk about that foolish song, linda u like nor post my comment..let them release song that will spoil our young generation....nonesense
ReplyDeletePls guys how can I open an account???
ReplyDeleteIs he seriously trying to pull a Kanye? He definitely lost his head and went way overboard! Wale's sensitivity is unprecedented! Nas doesn’t have any Grammy’s and you don’t see him threatening and yelling at people.
ReplyDeleteAwww...he(wale) should have let them be, he doesn't Av to make noise with them. awards and recognition r just plus. So far u r bold and certain of urself, that should keep u going. Wale big up man
ReplyDeleteThe dude is such an immature rant. Most of this artistes just make a load of cash and have got no education. They lack manners and are so so insecure. By the way, how does his threat push him into the top 50? You cant influence personal opinions by threats and cohesion.
ReplyDeleteHe has got a lot to learn
"Bad girls ain't no good, and the good girls ain't no fun

ReplyDeleteLol!don't get any security ready!his a yoruba boy...nothing will happen!!
ReplyDeleteEh-yah wale tho!
ReplyDeletebut seriously, how can Wale's Gifted not be on the Top 50 albums of this year.
ReplyDeletethat album dropped about the same time J. Cole, Jay-z & Kanye. The only album better than Wale's in that group was J. Cole's.
that said, dude should have played it more maturely. This is just gonna open ways for people to take shots at him.
I'm sure Ken Lamar's writing a piece already
