An online fan chose to interact with Wale and upload a photo of him in the mid-2000s in the MTV Video Music Awards and asked whether the rapper who didn’t have hairdos would be able to drop freestyles, as he did in the past. He was notified of the tweet and responded, but without ever giving a definitive answer.
