He’s the reason why so many rappers are in the game today 🔥
He is. He bred a bunch of clones and those clones gave more clones. So him being the reason isn’t really a good thing
The Godfather of the Generation
@population-_-420to young
Facts he showed the world down south rappers can be lyrical 💯
All of them
THIS WAS INCREDIBLE!!! i didn't expect him to replace a bunch of his original lines to fit the ESPYs like this man this man is a genius fr
@mujahid6986 What did he do to you? Must be something because you know he is nowhere near the worst.
@mujahid6986 definitely trolling. Actually the opposite lol
@mujahid6986gotta be gillie da kid burner account
"A genius" LMAO
Wow you kids these days have low standards and no taste.
He had to change the original Dennis Rodman line for sure...times have changed but that bar was my favorite😅😂
I'm glad I got a chance to grow up as Wayne was in his prime. If you missed that era, that's tough!
On god
I PROMISE
Block is hot- Carter I Wayne was slept on
Tough As Nigerian Hair
Yea im 37 and literally i grew up the same with waynes career, he dropped some classics
The fact that Travis Kelce knew the words was amazing. Lil Wayne will forever be my Goat.
lil white girls know the lyrics
The way Wayne be remix his own song mid song still blows my mind till this day.
Right! He did an interview & stated he doesn’t write his lyrics, his raps are freestyles so he doesn’t remember a lot of them. He improvises. Dope!
Bro it's the ESPY's he 1000% had those lines premeditated. He only had to change maybe 10-12 lines and several were single word substitutions. Still awesome, but he wasn't up there "going off the top"(mid song) on Live TV with an estimated 4+ million people watching around the globe.
@zacadams8263 never know with Wayne he can freestyle
Mannn str8 fax!
@@zacadams8263He definitely could freestyle that he could freestyle a whole song so switching up a few words on the spot is nothing for Wayne. Listen to his old Squad up mix tapes. He hasn’t wrote in all this time you think he wrote a verse for the Espy’s highly doubt it .
If you didn't live in the time when Wayne was the goat, you wouldn't understand why this dude is a top 5 of all time.
Throughout the late 2000s I always argued T.I over Wayne, but he's definitely top 5 over T.I ....I still put T.I over wayne as far as favorites tho
@@Ejazz414I mean for me they are definitely not on the same level but T.I. is no joke, that Urban Legend album is underrated AF.
top 5 jus down 4🤷🏾♂️
Lol
U don’t understand y yb is just better
“CUZ WE POP HIM LIKE WE COACHING WEMBENYAMA”🤣🤣🐐🐐 that bar went over so many heads
Fire
Real talk it did I had to go back n listen 10x and I just smiled at the genius 🫶🏾🐐
EXACTLY WHEEZY TOO HARD
That bar was literally the best rap bar I’ve heard in a long time 🤣 crazy to think that Wayne’s still got it after all this time
“Sister, daughter, son father, but y’all can call me poppa but my uncle prime got me we out there in Colorado”
Angel Reese line and damar line fire too
This song had us all in a serious chokehold in summer 2008. You just had to be there when it dropped
Pure facts
Me a 12 year old White girl in NH with A Milli blasting in my headphone as I’m tanning by my pool and honestly I can vividly remember it so filled with joy 😂😂😂
Maaannnnn 😢
My guy.... EVERY car was playing this at Bike Week in Myrtle Beach that year 😂😂
Yessir
Man couldn’t stop smiling seeing the legend doing what he do best🙏🏿
One of his nicknames should be Big Smile🙌
Nice to see someone that happy❤
That standing ovation speaks it all.GOAT
Raise up your hand if you have watched it countless times
Like 100 times 💪🏼💪🏼
Can't stop watching
Me too
Mike Tyson and Jon Jones. Two goats know who the goat is
Been watching it all dat
He deserved a standing ovation 😊
🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯
@mujahid6986Fucking terrible opinion
@mujahid6986yet you search him up listen to all his songs and watch his performances! 😂😂
That part one of the greatest ever hands down facts
❤definitely
The crowd passed the vibe check 🔥
"In my mind, God is good, Damar Hamlin is doin fine" sheees! The best line🔥🔥
Caught that. Straight 🔥🔥
go get a pfizer shot
I love our culture so much man. It’s rare for an artist that has been doing it this long to get on stage with so much energy and control a room. These are stars in this room and they are FANS of him. Wayne the goat
Interesting, watching this just proves to me American culture is just garbage now
Wayne's music being mainstream shows how dumb society is getting
@@noshotnova2432 Wayne has been mainstream since he was 16 just shows how dumb you are
@noshotnova2432 Then why did you even click on the video? Here's another reason society has gone down the drain is because people like you go out of their way to whine and cry about everything that offends them. Imagine having no life and crying to strangers on youtube about content that YOU CHOSE TO WATCH... I'm assuming you're just another low IQ hillbilly. Go play the victim somewhere else and we'll continue to watch things that we actually enjoy. Go hate your miserable life somewhere else
Wayne nowhere near top 20
@@noshotnova2432crazy how you couldn’t pull that off though
Whoa. “I want my NIL so I’m going back to College” 🔥Anotha classic line 🐐
🔥
Hall of Fame is one of the best to do it, and he dont have nobody writing his music for him.
📠
@@JohnSmith-er7dwgillie??
Yeah cause he would have been making a killing 😅
People say they miss the old Wayne or the Wayne in his prime. His prime is forever 🐐🐐🐐🐐
🎉
Hey now 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🐐🐐
WAYNE SNAPPED ON THESE UPDATED REFERENCES!!! 🔥🔥🔥
The way he changed the lyrics mid performance shows how great he is. This my goat I glad I grew up in his prime to see.
My man still has it. Loved the remix. 💪🏾
No backing track straight fast clear lyrics he killed it. Love lil wayne
I love how much Wayne loves sports
I think that's why Nicki has all those sports references in her rap. She is really the female Weezy
listen to my music 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@rudestlittlesoundwave642lol Nicki don't watch sports, whatever sports references she has it was ghost written from Wayne
Lil Wayne - ESPN
And he supporting women athletes too nice shout out to Angel Reese!
He breathing hard after one song. This is your Super Bowl king? (Don’t get me wrong, he’s a great lyricist and legend!)
A milli is a hard song to perform live without back up. The cadence is high. So i think everybody would have problem performing that song live. It's not about wayne , the song is hard to perform live and i mean live live ,bot voice over
Leave the culture. We don't need you
Why Kbots discrediting him?
He is over Kdot anyday at anyuniverse
Dont Kbots see crowd vibing?
Wezzy is goat
These middle school kids telling he does not have energy Stfup kid
He mixed tf outta that! The Greatest Rapper ALIVE
Sliiimmmmmm
Wayne still doing it is one of the best gifts.. the ppl that grew up with him, in their mid 30s, they know what I mean
Mannnnn 😢
Late 20s here and I also know what you mean! 🐐
im 26. shoutout to my older sister for sister putting me on to wayne as a kid
29. Bro you just old. I remember sitting in my math class in 7th grade waiting for da drought 3 to drop. It didn’t that day but I was fired up for that tape.
i'm 22, not that old but hey 🤣 i got to see it as well
Just some fire bars he had laying around in his head 🔥🔥🔥⚜️
Factz
Love the fact Lil Wayne is still around doing his thing, I remember my high school days blowing the speakers out of my S-10 to him.
Woiii, I never knew how much I needed to see Wayne & Travis together! 😂🙌🙌🙌🙌
He the only white guy in that building who can pull that kind of stunt off and not look like an idiot dancing to the music lol
🖤💯👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💃🏿
He had everyone grinning and appreciating watching him get off like only he can. Even iron Mike was feeling that! I didn’t want that to end. Do another song Wayne F it!! Lol
Tyson went to prison for raping a young black beauty queen
It always amazes me how nobody cares about that in this era
So many players from all sports love him they all grew up on his music the Goat 🔥🔥
The creative genius is virtually unmatched. Wrote this song over 15 years ago and he can just change and mix in new lines for the current sports news and events with ease.
He didn’t write it!
@@cheikhtidianecisse5064 You're claiming wayne didn't write the verses from the song that came out on the album The Carter III?
@@Ecoteric Wayne don’t write songs
@@cheikhtidianecisse5064 you don't know anything. you're just talking.
@@Ecoteric i know about wayne more than you know about yourself.
Dope how he adding new lyrics as he raps lol
Goat tings
He did that in the Kobe Bryant live performance when he passed too
This is the halftime show people wanted lol
You want a deep lyrical hidden secrets mind rap in halftime?
@@BoT-qe3fi I want a well put television performance, which dot delivers every time
@@Liltoxicfoohe doesn't. And last time I checked cnoop dog and Dre don't put on extravagant shows
he doesn't. And last time I checked cnoop dog and Dre don't put on extravagant shows
@@OmarWilliam-xc8tr he does
YES!! Wayne you better do that freestyle/remix. He came with the Flava tonight! It was nice to see him on stage doing his thing...🙌🏾
This made me so happy! Wayne deserves all the praise! 🙌🏾
Y’all can call me poppa!! but my uncle prime got me out here wayyy in Colorado 🤣🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥🔥
The fact that Lil Wayne improvise freestyles most of his songs and doesn't write them down is insane.
Bruh just wakes up hella lit every day.
I bet the engineer is hella happy to see Wayne come to the studio every time he arrives.
His smile at the end ❤ will forever love you weezy
I was just listening to this cd in my car last week!!! It's STILL 1 of my favorites to this day!!!!
That was dope. And he changed some of the lyrics 🐐
Lil' Wayne's appearance brought life into our boring home last night! Even my blue heeler and beagle were excited! They've heard him so many times on You Tube!!! Super performance!
HE JUST FREESTYLE A DIFFERENT A MILLIE AND IT WAS FREAKING AMAZING 😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 BTW “MY UNCLE PRIME GOT ME OUT THERE WAY IN COLORADO!” 🦬🦬🦬🦬🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 WE COMING
That was epic. I love the video of when Weezy pulled up on Coach Prime in Colorado. It was epic.
sko buffs....lolll brap brap brap
most rappers stumble or slip up when they can’t cuss live, but Weezy replaced all the explicit lyrics with sports references on the spot 🔥🔥🔥🔥 still the goat
"You Pop em cuz we pop em like we coachin Wembanyama"
Weezy Tha Goat 🐐
I like how he switched the lyrics up a lil shouting out a few athletes Wayne will always be my favorite rapper of all TIME‼
Carter 2, Carter 3 and The No Ceilings mixtape will forever be in my playlist.
Add Drought 3, it's mandatory.
The drought 3
He'd be great as a guest to do 1 or 2 songs, but come on guys be serious
I just said that he doesn't have enough stamina to do a full Super Bowl, but he definitely could come out do Mona Lisa, and then do a Millie and then kick it to Juvie to do back that thing up it would be cool
I love the fact that everybody gets turnt up as soon as they hear a beat!
I see why he not doing a super bowl
I liked how he remixed a milli 🐐🔥
Bruh revamped the lyrics and it still was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🗣️Need more LIKE HIM! 🔥💯
Man Mike Tyson's amazement of weezys performance is heart warming and priceless. the power and connectivity in MUSIC yall🙏🎶🎵
How you freestyle your own classic and make it classic🐐
Yall watch this performance and see why he ain’t performing at the superbowl
He literally made a whole new version of a milli 🔥
Man made a clean version with no censors the goat 😂😂
Plus with sports references and yes 🐐
I like hip hop😊
Weezy is a legend. One of the greatest of all time
Facts
The greatest
This man was just freestyle remixing his own song 😂 LEGEND! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Freestyle.....riiiiiiiight.......
@@johndavidson1944you do realize Wayne doesn’t write his music right?😂 the last song we wrote was 10,000 bars witch is a 30+min song gtfo
@@Tyler1251tyler why you telling me lol I'm not the one who said that was a freestyle....
@@Tyler1251tyler also I wouldn't even consider that drivel music
@@johndavidson1944 😂 I’m guessing you’re in high school saying wayne doesn’t freestyle gtfo😭😭🤡
Like I’m coaching Wembanyamas! 😂🤣🐐
Frfr
Don't know how many times I have watched this.... so 🔥🔥
1 of the 🐐 's. If you've never seen him live....i highly suggest u make the effort to do so
Was good a decade or so ago.
Unfortunately he doesn't always make the effort to show up or perform the whole set lol
@population-_-420cause he’s the greatest hip-hop artist of all time. Pretty self explanatory.
The only rapper I seen live greatest to ever do it
@@blackout07bluekys :)
Travis and Wayne 👌🏿✊🏿💯🖤👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💃🏿
What a talent ⚜️⚜️⚜️
These lyrics and wordplay are INSANE 🔥 WEEZY!
Man Wayne touch everything and everyone sports world and more goat 🐐 thank you espn
Wayne got hits but do y’all really want to see this regular azz boring performance at the super bowl
Omg I love. This had me smiling so much ❤ Crazy how I was just listening to the song before the show
This man is so legendary to change the lyrics to fit the event was so dope
That's why kelce is a beast....he raps to lil wayne!!!
That's why Kendrick got the Superbowl. Wayne doesn't have it right now
When he dropped this back in 08.. this track was EVERYWHERE. I remember printing out the lyrics in a computer lab from azlyrics so I can go in EVERY. TIME. IT. DROPS. And I still do 😂 not saying hes the GOAT, but OG weezy was untouchable. And da drought 3 imo is the GOAT of mixtapes. Weezy easily holds at least 3 out of the top 10 mixtapes of all time. RESPECT ON HIS NAME
AlmostEveryone in the game sounds like Wayne to some degree and look like him, all tatted, dreads adopted his subject matter..lean and random but also genius metaphors and wordplay with a crazy punk like brashness. He’s the GOAT in my opinion
90 % If not more rappers rap dress, and has tattoos on face and body because of this man right here give em his flowers and respect he is the GOAT and it's not even close his longitivity and adjustments throughout the years is simply Astonishing and command greatness 🙌
Wayne fathered all these new rappers lol
Man bro I was born in 97, seen Wayne Wiz Gucci in they PRIME they part the reason I’m a inked up pot head fasho 😂😂😂
FOREVER MY FAVE!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
He ate
Wayne killed it 🔥
That’s the Wayne I wil remember forever give that man his flowers now and later ya dig
Lil wayne a legend.. maybe in the mount rushmore of rappers
He is the GOAT
This man freestyle over an old beat with new lyrics on the go lmao 🔥
Every athlete in that hall has had at least one lil Wayne song will turning into stars like him ❤
Alot of bars went over heads ... the goat 🐐
Cutting to Mike at the face tattoo line was real clutch
Give little wayne his flowers now❤❤❤oh my bad anit enough out heew to give ro him goat od all time and forever go
"My pencil elite on the sheet of the tablet in mind
God is good, Damar Hamlin doing fine." 😬👏🏾👏🏾
Waynes bars have limitless meanings!
😤 “What’s a goon to a G O B L I N”
Always killing it he loves loves what he does Legend, The Goat, Genius, Knowledge dropper will teach you some things his craft is untouchable Respect everyone loves Wayne better stand up❤
He's 1 of 1 🔥🔥
He’s a star that lights up other stars 🌟 🔥🔥🔥
Timeless song 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
“Over New Orleans like I’m Angel Reese” ❤ 🔥
Give Wayne his 💐 while he still alive 👏🏾🐐
You can't it's not enough flowers out there for us to give him lol
Showing TK that love! 2 goats, one frame 🙏🏻 yes I know Gronk exists, but I don’t think anybody has been as consistent as kelce that past 5 years. There is a reason he has gone round 1 of fantasy drafts the past like 4-5 years. Dude is tight end outplaying wide receivers.
He sound lit live🔥 tbh
Lil Wayne ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Man was going off the top for a few bars
This made me so happy seeing him smiling like that!!!best rapper alive!!!
You gotta love number 87 energy on and off the field he lit
20+ years in the game still performing acapella live. Wayne is my goat
I’m over New Orleans like ah Angel 🔥🔥
