Lil Wayne, one of raps most successful artists in recent times, has decided that he is bored of rap and would much rather concentrate on his new hobby: skateboarding.

Although you could argue that, as far as rapping goes, Weezy was lucky to actually find fame in the first place given how derivative and uninspired his music was in the first place, but find fame is exactly what he did. Thankfully though, whilst building up his portfolio in the music business, he also became very distracted by this new pursuit and will look to carry it on in the meantime, leaving rapping in the dark for a while.

He spoke to DJ Drama during an on-air interview on his Atlanta's Hot 107.9 show, during which he elaborated on his plans to leave behind the rap game for a while and let his Ymcmb label-mates take care of things for the time being.

Whilst he may be taking time out, rap game isn't safe just yet as Wayne confirmed that his latest mixtape, Dedication 4, is on course to be released by mid-August, although he chose not to elaborate on any of his other music projects.

Wayne did drop the track 'My Homies Still,' in June, which is set to be the first single off his upcoming I Am Not a Human Being II, which is slated for release latest this year. However no release date has been set yet.
