Lil Wayne opens up about amnesia and the meaning of success in new interview

Lil Wayne also says that the records with which he broke through in the early 2000s have “no meaning at all” for him, since he no longer has any memories of them. From ‘Tha Carter III’, one of his most successful albums, the rapper says he doesn’t even know when it was released.

The artist considers his amnesia “a curse.” “God has blessed me with a great creative mind, but also given me a bad memory.” Despite the fact that Lil Wayne says he has forgotten part of his success, the rapper is far from retiring. “If you’re an artist, a real artist like me, you were born that way. I don’t think artists ever retire.”
