WALE TALKS “ATTENTION DEFICIT” & GUSHES OVER SOLANGE…

After a host of mixtapes, Washington D.C. native Wale finally got the moment he’s been patiently waiting for–the release of his long-awaited debut album Attention Deficit. Wale recently chopped it up with MTV about the tone of the album and why he considers it to be “like a child”.

“It’s supposed to be all over the place. It’s just like channel surfing: There’s no one sound. I couldn’t go with one sound.” “I think when you put your blood, sweat and tears behind something and keep it honest, I think it always comes out,” he says. “It’s like a child to me. This album is closer to me than any artist has felt about their debut album. It’s so symbolic. We never thought this day was gonna come. It’s got a bar code and artwork!”

We’ve seen the pictures and we’ve read the flirty Tweets which have all suggested that Wale and Solange have a lil’ thing going on. Although they haven’t actually confirmed that they’re an item, but Wale’s recent interview with Honey magazine might as well be the icing on the cake. When asked about Solange, the rapper got all giddy and admitted that he loves her. He tells Honey,

“I do love her,” he admits of Solange, flashing a Cheshire. “We’re friends. She’s amazing. She’s a good person. Any single mother contributing to society the way she does — I got a lot of love for them. She’s got to do a lot on her own and raise a young black man in this day and age, so my hat goes off to her. She’s definitely an anomaly. And the way she can do that and manage to do the same things that I complain about having to do.”

His affection is as obvious as a set of flushed cheeks. And impossibly adorable. Wale, the former mixtape rapper from inner city DC, is borderline giddy. “Did you interview Solange about me?” Wale asks. He’s sprawled across his bed; head practically buried in the pillow. “Did she smile when you mentioned my name?”

So is a co-sign from Jay-Z merely enough to keep Wale’s star shining bright?
