Waka Flocka Flame is upside down on the cover of SPIN Magazine's May/June
issue. The 25-year-old Atlanta rapper is the couldn't-be-more-perfect
face of our first-ever Loud Issue, dedicated to all things enjoyably and
compellingly disruptive.
Not just because of his blaring dreadlocks or
booming sonics or growled hooks, but — as writer Julianne Escobedo
Shepherd discovers during a whirlwind international adventure — he's a
character at a moment when that quality seems at a premium.
And while
he's on the cusp of mega stardom, flying to Paris at a moment's notice
when Kanye beckons, he's held in check by two personal tragedies, even
if you couldn't tell from his fun-loving, club-destroying image. "I'm
25, but I got an old man's soul," he says. "I just know how to
camouflage it."
Check out Waka showing a bit of his funny side in the below clip!
