How was he able to afford to get Jerry Seinfield on the album?! It seems like that would've cost his whole budget.

Apparently Seinfield's wife caught wind of Wale's "About Nothing" mixtape series and became a fan. From there, she put Seinfield on game and the two later linked.

Wow, an up and coming artist in the game couldn't ask for a better look. Organic moves like this almost don't even seem to happen like this anymore. But this is really cool.

Yea The Mixtape about nothing and Mora about nothing is a mixtape series he did in '08 and 2010. He had clips from the show playing through it

Wale - More About Nothing Hosted by Dj Omega // Free Mixtape @ DatPiff.com

I wonder how he got away with using clips from the show though? Because even though it's a mixtape, wouldn't he had to have cleared what he used? I guess Jerry's wife had already been hip to his music and told Jerry dude was nice? Or had he already released anything before this More About Nothing mixtapes?

The road less traveled.
Remember nikkas used to make hay hating on Wale on here and that other o s.o.h.h shytty site? :heh:

Fast forward a little bit and now Wale is shytting on these nikkas to a ridiculous degree. Youngin has a near classic tape about to be released tomorrow AND the nikka has Jerry Seinfeld in his hip pocket for the next joint which is about to elevate a classic mixtape series to even higher levels. Can you nikkas imagine an album quality More About Nothing? :wow:

The remaining hating nikkas need to go ahead and take the next few years off. Check back in in 2015 at the earliest yall. These next few years ain't about to be nothing but aggravation for you dudes otherwise. :lolbron:

:whoa:

He makes cool music but he is still a corn ball. I have no idea what he is rapping abouut I just like the way his music sounds.

I dont even like Wale and I can't find a way to hate on this :obama:

Why is it any time a black man gets around a successful white man they can't just be friends or cool, the black guy has to be 'c00ning' to be in that position?

Ain't that what we here for? We aren't cracking seals with these nikkas, as long as these dudes stay away from outlandish shyt, I judge these dudes off of the music. Wale is on a hell of a run right now, dating back to the More About Nothing tape that attracted Ross to him and Seinfeld's wife and eventually Seinfeld himself. Three years of nothing but dope releases, I think that affords his supporters a little bit of room to :lawd: on nikkas in this joint.

Not a damn thing, and that outro was a tease to a larger project they got coming next year together called 'The Album About Nothing.'

Idk the legalities of the whole situation but this was before all the mixtape sampling thing started just a few years ago with frank ocean and mac miller so idk.

But back then to the best of my knowledge ppl could still sample for free on mixtapes.

Even if it was illegal, it probably isnt worth it to sue Wale (at that time), they would have lost more in legal fees.
