Lil Wayne Reveals His Favorite New Orleans Slang | R&B Hip-Hop Power Players Live 2023

Lil Wayne reveals his favorite New Orleans slang backstage at Billboard‘s R&B Hip-Hop Power Players and Live 2023.

Lil Wayne:
What’s up? Tunchi, here.

One of my favorite New Orleans slang, the terms or phrases or words or whatever is “You heard me?” because we say it for anything, but it also those words have definitions. So, you heard me?

“Wodie.” The reason why is because it’s just another word for brother, friend, homie, sis. Whatever it is, that’s my wodie.

Another one of my favorite New Orleans slang probably would be “Waaaa….” I’m not sure how you spell it. I’m not sure if it’s even a word, but, like, hello. You know, like, Australian people say “cheers” to every single thing — it’s like “Waaaa….”

And that’s my favorite New Orleans slang.
