In 2008, Lil Wayne infamously called out the Rev. Al Sharpton on his “Dontgetit” song off emTha Carter III/em.br /br /Hip hop has continued to irk the black leaders and has continued with the most-recent NAACP Awards nominations. LL Cool J, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, B.o.B., Kanye West, Cee Lo, and Willow Smith are all up for awards at the 42nd Annual NAACP Awards, which will air on March 4 on FOX.div class=”blogger-post-footer”div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”
