Wale threatens Complex staff after exlcusion from '50 Best Albums of 2013' list

Like Kanye, Wale does not take rejection lightly. He went ballistic on a Complex magazine staff after his recent album, The Gifted, was excluded from the magazine's list of the 50 Best Albums of 2013.

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...

  20. What an awkward Pride.he can aswell run his own magazine-he'll cm out tops then. Bitch! ~VIA says so~

    ReplyDelete
  21. If 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.

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.

  56. The 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.
    He has got a lot to learn

  73. but seriously, how can Wale's Gifted not be on the Top 50 albums of this year.
    that 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
