Even if one factors in Lil’ Wayne’s ire at being evicted from the Miami Heat arena during the L.A. Lakers game last week, it is hard to not get turned off by his rant. Was it necessary? Or…was it for real? Or was it a nicely timed publicity stunt?

In an interview with Miami’s 99 JAMZ, the rapper said -

“Let me start off by saying, I don’t apologize for that night, I don’t apologize for being who I am. That’s who I am, this is who I am, and yes I did say those things. Only thing I do want to take back from saying that night is I said ‘F**k LeBron,’ I didn’t mean to say that because me and LeBron we are cool and I’m really cool with his mom and we have a real good relationship, and that’s my homie but it just slipped out. I didn’t mean to say that. Other than that though I don’t take nothing back.”

Here’s a video of the diss in case you missed it.

There are the rich and then there are those who know how to live it up; Birdman, the powerful music mogul is certainly from the latter category. We know of his expensive tastes and how he can be generous when gifting to friends…why, just last week he gifted matching Bentleys to Lil Wayne and Mack Maine.

And in his latest buying episode, Birdman has plonked almost $15 million in cash on the table for a 19,000-sqaure-foot property on the ultra exclusive Palm Island in Miami. The nine room pad has a 100-foot waterfront and a private dock apart from the usual theater, pool, gym, etc that are bundled along when you purchase such property.

This piece of real estate was earlier owned by Scott Storch, the music producer, who had to let go of it to a foreclosure.
