I'm an old rapper getting new bucks

from Lil Wayne – Live From 504 Lyrics on Rap Genius

Wayne had been in the rap game for almost ten years when he recorded this, but he was also the most popular that he’d ever been. The line references the old money/new money split in upper class circles, where young, rich upstarts are looked down upon by older, established families. Wayne is the best of both worlds, in the game for years and still making entirely new cash.
