Various of Lil Wayne at a Macy's store to promote his Trukfit clothing line +++ SOUNDBITE NUMBER 2 CONTAINS PROFANITY+++ AP Entertainment New York, 11 October 2016 2. SOUNDBITE (English) Lil Wayne/Recording Artist: "At the age of 12-years old, I shot myself. I was in the house, police knocked on the door. I was right there. They knocked the door down, everybody jumped over my body to go get the guns and drugs and whatever they could find. It took one guy to stop right there and cuss everybody out that hopped over me. 'What the fuck, are ya'll doing?' They were like, 'We were gonna see if it...' ' What the fuck are ya'll doing.' 'We called the ambulance,' 'A fucken ambulance, do you not see this kid on the floor with this hole in his chest? He said, you, you drive.' He picked me up, brought me to the hospital. He didn't drop me off at the ambulance and say, 'You take him,' he brought me to the hospital (emergency) room and stood there and waited until the doctor said he's gonna make it. He said 'Don't worry, my name is Uncle Bob,' and he was white as snow. Them motherfuckers that hopped over me were blacker than me." (Reporter: Was he a cop?) "Yeah he was a cop. And my life was saved by a white man. I don't know what racism is. I know a good motherfucker named Uncle Bob, though." AP Entertainment New Orleans, 1 June 2012 3. Various shots of Lil Wayne talking to reporter AP Entertainment New York, 11 October 2016 4. SOUNDBITE (English) Lil Wayne/Recording Artist: "When I open my eyes on stage and when I, at a Lil Wayne show when I come from under the stage. Man, it's not - it's the world out there. It's not a certain part or a certain kind or a certain culture or whatever of people, it's people - those people out there in that crowd. They make, quote unquote, and they make, quote unquote, Lil Wayne. That's who I happen to be, and I'm sorry I'm sorry if people can't understand. But I understand why they don't understand, it's because they don't come from the bottom of the stage and look at 20 to 30-thousand people. They don't get that opportunity. And I'm blessed to have that opportunity, so with that said I can only be honest with such a thing. I have never witnessed racism." AP Entertainment Los Angeles, 1 June 2012 5. Lil Wayne at a Macy's store to promote his Trukfit clothing line STORYLINE: LIL WAYNE EXPLAINS HIS 'NO SUCH THING AS RACISM' COMMENT Lil Wayne understands why some people criticized him for saying racism is over, but claims people don't see it from his perspective. The rapper got some backlash last month when he told Fox Sports 1's "Undisputed" that there was "no such thing as racism" because his concert audiences had a lot of white fans. He also said millennials knew that racism wasn't cool. When asked on Tuesday to expand on his thoughts, Lil Wayne told The Associated Press that one of the reasons he feels that way is because a white police officer saved his life when he was 12 years old after he accidentally shot himself in the chest. "Yeah, he was a cop, and my life was saved by a white man. I don't know what racism is. I know a good (expletive) named Uncle Bob, though." Carter said. The Grammy-winning rapper said he was lying on the floor when police broke down the door, stepping over his body looking for guns and drugs. But one man stopped and chastised the others for leaving him. "He was white as snow. Them (expletive) that hopped over me were blacker than me," Carter said. Carter says the man known as "Uncle Bob" personally took him to the hospital and stayed with him.
