I feel like a model. It justifies everyone in my life who told me I wouldn’t be anything until I lost weight. It justifies that little girl who cried because she didn’t think she could be in front of the camera. And it’s for other girls who feel like they can’t do this or that and feel like they’re not pretty and not worthy of having their photo taken

Lil Wayne - "On Fire" Music Video Premiere
Lil Wayne has announced that "On Fire" will be the 1st single from the "ReBirth" album that is due out sometime this year. His previous singles for the album have failed to garner attention for his debut rock album. The video revolves around a bad girl/ hell theme, but the song is not actually creative. The beat comes from the old NBA Jams game and "She's On Fire" is Lil Wayne's spin on the popular game catch phrase "He's On FIRE".
