Lil Wayne's longtime manager Cortez Bryant appeared on Andrew Barber's Fake Shore Drive show in September 2020 and revealed that the rapper mistakenly released the popular "Weezy F. Baby and the F is for phenomenal" line off his 2009 track "Yes." "The word starts with 'ph,' but he said 'f,' right?" Bryant jokingly acknowledged. "He was like, 'Oh s**t, I gotta change that.' We released it. We had an argument about that. He not understanding the concept about digital, and it's gone now ...We had pressed tons of CDs, but he didn't realize he spelled it wrong, and I didn't catch it."

Bryant went on to share how the spelling error almost caused Wayne to axe the entire Weezy Effect 2 mixtape. "Wayne is a perfectionist about that, using his words and prepositions in [the] correct way," Bryant shared. "He might misspell something on purpose for lyrical exercise and wordplay, but he's really precise about his wordplay. He was really down, pissed, 'F-ck the whole mixtape' just because of that one damn line." But, despite how much he hated the line, it has been deemed "iconic" by a number of rap publications. Pretty phenomenal if you ask me.....
