(AllHipHop News) Lil Wayne may be a self-proclaimed Martian he is not from Mars. However, during a recent interview with XXL Magazine, the Louisiana-native revealed his knowledge of the current state of Hip Hop is no better than if he was from Mars.

Wayne admits that while he still listens to new school artists such as A$AP Ferg and Odd Future, he is not too hip to the latest movements in Hip Hop:

I don’t know where hip-hop is at. I just listen to the old stuff, and my television stay on SportsCenter. Even when I’m flipping through the channels, I stumble across MTV or BET or whatever, if I stop and watch that video it’s because I haven’t seen that video. I’m so amazed. I don’t know if it’s new. I don’t know who the person is.

The rapper also reveals that he’s been skating more than working on music recently and described his I Am Not A Human Being II as “underground.”
