Lil Wayne: Live in the Studio
Last night I found myself at NightHawk Studios, which for those of you who don't know, is the secret recording studio at the Sunset Marquis. With whom, you ask? None other than Lil Wayne, no big deal. The mood was surprisingly romantic, ha! There were candles lit everywhere and the lights were dimmed.

For Weezy, getting inspired meant playing the track over and over and over again to let words flow naturally. You might be wondering why I had any business being in the studio with him, and truthfully, i didn't–but my friend Porcelain has a single dropping with him in two weeks, so fellow artists were chilling and inspiring one another while I swayed to the music like a white girl and ate all their potato chips.
