As Wolfgang Van Halen<\/a> prepares to release his latest album, fans are speculating about his latest single takes aim at David Lee Roth, \u2018I Really Wanna\u2019.<\/p>\n

Wolfgang, best known for being the son of legendary guitarist Eddie Van Halen, has been carving out his solo career ever since his father\u2019s death in 2020. Though he had been working on music with his old man as far back as the late 2000s, it wasn\u2019t until the release of Mammoth WVH <\/em>that fans got their first taste of what the guitarist could do on his fucking own, now going under the name Mammoth.<\/p>\n

While Wolfgang had worked alongside Roth during the band\u2019s comeback tours and the release of their final album, A Different Kind of Truth, <\/em>their relationship had taken a turn ever since working together. Wolfgang had previously talked about Roth not wanting their reunion album on streaming services, and Roth had recently talked about his tense relationship with Eddie\u2019s son.<\/p>\n

In 2024, \u2018Diamond Dave\u2019 released a track titled \u2018This Crazy Kid\u2019<\/a>, which features him having a spoken-word interview with \u2018Jesus Christ\u2019. In the midst of talking about his time as a rock star, he brings up his grievances with Wolfgang during their reunion tour, where he referred to him as \u201cthis fuckin\u2019 kid\u201d who threw out some of his female company during the performance of \u2018Ice Cream Man\u2019.<\/p>\n

While Wolfgang has talked about Roth sparingly ever since, his latest music video for the song \u2018I Really Wanna\u2019 seems to be painting the picture of Roth as an out-of-control rockstar. Despite following a trend in Mammoth videos showing Wolfgang playing everything, he does have a caricature scattered throughout the video.<\/p>\n

Although he has not commented on it, Wolfgang\u2019s over-the-top persona in the background has been speculated to be a jab at Roth. Aside from playing up his showmanship throughout the video, Wolfgang quotes Roth back directly, including a line in the song referring to the protagonist as \u201cthis fuckin\u2019 kid\u201d.<\/p>\n

The video also calls back to many of Roth\u2019s mannerisms that he would do onstage as well. Throughout the video, Wolfgang can be seen mocking his signature tricks that he would do with a sword as well as performing a tapping solo with him flipping off the camera with his strumming hand. The lyrics also serve as a pointed attack on Roth, with the chorus being \u201cI really wanna fuck with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the song might be taking jabs at Roth, former Van Halen vocalist Sammy Hagar has said that he has had nothing but love for Wolfie in the past few years, having reconnected with him during a tribute show and always getting reminded of Eddie. As of yet, Roth has yet to respond to the video. <\/p>\n
