For the Weezy fans, will it ever end? The "Nike Boots" remix featuring Lil Wayne dropped Christmas Day on Wale's myspace page, I grabbed it this morning and I can't stop listening to it.

But it's really not just Weezy who has my ear. Wale, pronounced wah-lay, spits for DC with a cordial swagger and an attitude that confirms his focus isn't only about doubling dollars:

"People [in DC] think it's cool to be stupid sometimes. If you say something that's too on point, people are going to look at you like, 'Damn, fuck you think you're smart or something?' I've made it my duty to not dumb it down for people."

Holla!

Truth be told, Wale may not sell five mill' with his debut album, tentatively titled Love Day and slated for a summer release; his goal for the disc is to follow in the footsteps of "Nike Boots" and make a "change where we stop hating on everything in DC and know that it's possible to make it out." He's currently shopping it around the major record labels and has yet to leave a meeting without an offer.

So check out the original, the remix, and then listen to Wale spit over my favorite non-hip hop song of 2007. Please do enjoy!
