In a recent Interview Magazine feature, Lil Wayne had a conversation with professional skateboarder Tony Hawk. The two discussed skating, and Lil Wayne shared some funny stories. He revealed that after he installed a quarterpipe outside of the Hit Factory in Miami, Meek Mill took a spill while trying to drop in.
“I couldn’t stop Meek Mill, though. I had a quarter pipe in Miami in the parking lot of a studio called the Hit Factory,” Lil Wayne explained, “A lot of artists record there, so when they would pull up, they’d be like, ‘What is that?’ Some of them don’t know what a quarter pipe is.” He went on, “So he stood at the top, skateboard ready, lifted up like he’s about to drop in. I’m like, ‘Please don’t, man.’ He’s like, ‘Nah, man. I ride bikes all day. This can’t be nothing.’ I’m like, ‘It’s not the same.’ And of course, he totally fell and taught himself a lesson about that. I tried to stop him.”

Lil Wayne Says He Won’t Let Drake Even “Attempt” To Skate
Lil Wayne also revealed that he tries to discourage Drake from skateboarding at all, due to the artist’s “cluminess.” He explains, “Drake has been on the scene at a park with a skateboard in his hand, and we’ve all quickly stopped him, like, ‘Don’t even attempt it,’ because he’s a very clumsy guy.”
Lil Wayne continues, “Drake hurts himself by just performing, and he’ll get real injuries. He’ll be on crutches the next day, and you be like, ‘Wait, all you did was fall onstage, right?’” He adds, “So he’s one of those guys. But he plays basketball a lot, so I think that has a lot to do with why he gets hurt. But as far as him on the board and me trying to get him to skate? No.”
