Martin Shkreli opened up about his escapades in the music industry and his infamous persona. Known for his controversial role in business and pop culture, Shkreli relished being the "bad guy." He shared anecdotes about interacting with notable hip-hop figures like 21 Savage, and how his antics captivated the public. A particularly wild incident involved his acquisition of Lil Wayne's "Carter 5." Shkreli recounted how Wayne inadvertently left the material in a Bugatti, which was later sold to a dealer who passed it on to Shkreli. Wayne's initial threat to sue was resolved with a nonchalant conversation between them. Shkreli also admitted to threatening DJ Akademiks, describing it as an unwise move stemming from his "performance artist" approach. Their feud was part and parcel of the larger-than-life persona that kept Shkreli in the spotlight. Despite the drama, Shkreli maintained that these episodes benefited both parties by garnering attention.
