"Fireman"
Song

"Fireman" is a song by American hip hop recording artist Lil Wayne, released on October 25, 2005, as the first single from his fifth studio album Tha Carter II. The single was produced by American production duo Doe Boyz, composed of Develop and Filthy. The song was originally recorded with slightly different lyrics. This included a completely modified second and third verse. Many [who?] believe this was an attempt by the record label to make a more "radio-friendly" version of the song.

Music video

The music video was filmed shortly after Hurricane Katrina, on Oglethorpe University campus, in Atlanta, Georgia.
