Another thing that should be noted is one word, two letters... Wrestlemania XL. He was expected to perform the first verse of "A Milli" for less than a minute during an entrance and he couldn't even remember the lyrics... An entire Super Bowl halftime show would probably be an embarrassment to all those involved.
It should've been honestly obvious. People are just using the super bowl stuff to hate on Kendrick for beating Drake. Like, no way people didn't see the reasons why Lil Wayne couldn't be picked.
Nah nobody hating on that man that shit fucked up Jay being petty but I hope Diddy come get his ass 💀💀 Jay mad Drake didn’t sign with Tidal went with Apple.. this whole thing was a big set up literally
@@vibecheck9459, that's a Jay Z and Drake beef, NOT a Jay Z and Lil Wayne beef. Idk why y'all thinking Jay Z and Wayne are beefing in the first, there's more evidence of them being on good terms with each other as opposed to them being the opposite.
Wayne should have never assumed he was going to be offered to perform at the Super Bowl just because it is in his hometown. Sure, it happened in LA, but that was an outlier.
im pretty sure he was told he would get it He looked like as if his team was already preparing ahead of time Jay Z is known for being a jealous bitch so...
That’s true but also, we don’t know the behind the scenes discussions that may have went on between Wayne and the NFL. They may have made him believe that he was going to be picked. We don’t know the whole story yet everyone has an opinion about it.
Joe Budden put it best, it’s an interview process. Usher did a residency, Kendrick had the PopOut, and Wayne had Wrestlemania and fumbled, and he had been fumbling performances before that
people forget how great of a performance kendrick can give. like his shows themselves are legendary & he’s been on a run this year. wayne trippin on this one
Additionally, if Lil Wayne was not whining so bad Kendrick may have even invited him on stage as a surprise guest for a couple of bars because he admired him.
Tell me the videos where Wayne was whining? Please tell me. All he did was release one video giving his opinion. How is that whining. You are so pathetic

I don't understand why ppl think just becuz the Superbowl is being held in Louisiana that Wayne is automatically supposed to do the halftime show. It has NEVER been a rule where the game is played, the halftime performer has to be a native of that state. True enuff Dr. Dre and Snoop are from Cali but 50 Cent, Mary J. and Eminem were not.

And Kendrick puts on amazing shows/concerts it just makes sense.
@@NazarethHillyeah I was thinking that too. What he said is public kryptonite. Idk why he couldn’t make the effort to perform like 10 years ago, when he was still relevant.
Woah woah woah I haven’t seen one single comment anywhere discrediting Kendrick for this opportunity. Everyone is happy that Kendrick is getting this opportunity clearly Wayne haven’t been in the right health space nor mental space to be able to perform at the Super Bowl like this, his past performances and him forgetting his own lyrics just showed why he shouldn’t get an opportunity like this. I’m happy for Kendrick and a lot of people are too
When that West Coast clusterfuck went down at the Super Bowl halftime show a few years back, I was devastated seeing Kendrick there and thinking he deserved to perform on his own. I thought for sure they’d never give him his own stage. I feel so vindicated right now. Wayne’s gonna have to get over it.
0:46 didn't he have plenty of times in the past IDK 10 years to perform? That's kinda why idc that he's upset about it, he'll be aight. Plus a lot of his own fans say he can't remember his lyrics so he probably wouldn't be the best choice.
Yes Kendrick does inspire the Black youth in uplifting ways. Yet Lil Wayne is just the blind leading the blind when it come to speaking and rapping to our Black youth and all the other young people who are his fans., that guy drink lean he doesn't have to intelligence to guide anyone towards the right direction.
@@bknighty28 the above guy is delusional, imagine writing thousnads and thousands of songs, growing older and then some kid comes and tells you cant remember your own lyrics, you useless
This is what people said about em. You're so ignorant and will flip the script so quick. Wayne has to stop himself from destroying every other artists instrumentals. You don't know wayne. You don't know his influence, his impact or his fan base. Understand that nearly every single fan of Eminem has lil waynes back. Wayne is a legend and the man deserves his flowers.
@@Webheadfanatic You have no idea what you're talking about lil man. Get off the internet and learn how to complete a sentence.

You're being told you're wrong. It's your choice if you wanna listen. Go away if you don't.
Wayne owes Kendrick an apology. Support your brother and be a man. Kendrick worked hard for this. You failed and that’s that. Don’t follow drake and be childish
No he does not what a f you mean he can be sad if you work your ass of and. You did not get picked you will cry super bowl is huge Kendrick only made a disstrack Wayne has been making Music like dude keeps dropping more than Kendrick so he does not own him shit same as Kendrick does not own Wayne shit they both don't own eachother shit anyone can express there feelings and say I believe I was the right option to perform am on Team Wheezy but I love Kendrick but he does not own Kendrick shit
@@ThisIsTheGoat-u2rYou sound ignorant.Wayne is a washed up dope fiend. He has never been SB material. Kendrick is an elite artist and performer who has an excellent discography and has accolades unmatched by an artist. Dot just came off the highest grossing solo tour ever by a rapper in March 2024. Constantly putting out mid music means nothing 😅Dot has the luxury to drop music and pop out when he wants to and is impactful there really any rapper today. The NFL is a business not a hip hop event. Dot was selected and Wayne was never a consideration 😊
@@perfect1035 I feel like slapping you for calling Wayne washed up if he is he still irrelevant he can never drop music but he will never fall off Kendrick needs to drop music to stay relevant he's not on Wheezy level

Wayne was not 'campaigning'. Maybe manifesting, but saying you want it isn't campaigning. That would be putting on top performances, dropping hot music, cleaning up his public image and generally being in the centre of the public eye in a positive way.
I would’ve loved Wayne to perform but it’s as he said he doesn’t remember his own lyrics, he has a track record of showing up late to shows and for the Super Bowl they have to have absolute perfection in their minds to believe the only thing that’ll stop it is the earth opening up and swallowing it
@@kingk3624 what does that have to do with him performing at the Super Bowl? Plus he’s been off lean for years now so you’re clearly as stupid as the comment you made.
@@kingk3624 what does that have to do with him performing at the Super Bowl? He dropped lean years ago too so how is that relevant to him performing at the Super Bowl?
Jay tried to pull a Suge Knight move. Suge paid for Tupac to not only be released but to get him out of jail to I think something with a lawyer I have to double check. However Tupac repaid Suge by making the best album on the label. He was real enough to see who was there for him. Lil Wayne took that money and backhanded Jay Z and stayed with bird man before going independent
Idc who performs but this is Kendrick BEST year as an artist. And now better than Wayne it passed Wayne ? Why can’t we just enjoy it without comparing ? 😢
Not even top 3 year for Kendrick last time I checked😂. Recency bias is strong though I don't blame y'all. Honestly, I do think Wayne has enough time to shaped up for superbowl so im not buying the reasoning behind him not having it.
I think it says something that the first people that started talking about Wayne not getting the halftime show were people that could financially benefit from him being there. Birdman was one of the first, along with Nicki Minaj. Birdman would likely get some payout or at least thinks he would and Nicki would've wanted to feature on stage.
Good musician≠Good Super Bowl act. This “it should’ve been Wayne”-thing is like being mad that Bob Dylan hasn’t won Eurovision. That’s not his genre, that’s not his audience and it would be sad and weird if him or his fans went on a media campaign complaining and saying he was “excluded”.
Lean + xanny mentality unfortunately. Don’t do drugs kids. This is coming from a recovering addict too but 5yrs off da percs rn. Don’t go down this road fr
Like fr tho ppl gotta understand that when somebody is in the spotlight u gotta keep supporting that person until his time in the light is over wayne alr had his turn its time for another person to have the stage
If Kendrick idolize you, don’t you think knowing Kendrick as a human being wouldn’t have brought you on stage with him🤨 instead of showing Kendrick love and support and putting your pride to the side🤦🏾♂️ yall could’ve been on stage together
@@chrishealton3830You can't really hear Nas and Pac in his flow imo. The Tupac influence is in the content and philosophy tho. Andre 3K, Wayne and Em are better examples for his flows
Kendrick has transcended hiphop itself like wayne,drake,em,2pac,biggie,50 cent,Nf,Nashville,Cole, and many others. They've created a cult like following thing is when you are like Kendrick, you have the full respect if a majority audience and that is insane especially with the boundaries he seems to push with his sound. Current cultural impact matters probably more than overall
I think it’s sad that Wayne’s being seen the way he is right now…but unfortunately I suspect he’s not healthy enough to perform on such a stage with the epilepsy and memory loss that would cause him to be a liability. And that’s not necessarily his fault. This must be hard for him. I think all the attention isn’t great, his mgmt didn’t seem to be on it or managing expectations well at all. Don’t think it’s a JayZ issue
It's not that, he is a terrible live performer. He makes great studio music but this ain't the studio. He has repeatedly forgotten lyrics to his own songs live on stage.
Lil Wayne is a mess right now - if he was off drugs, in shape, remembered his own lyrics and was an amazing performer I’m sure that he’d be a much worthy contender to be in the Super Bowl. Lil Wayne just needs to clean up his act.
i dont care what anyone says tbh, the day that Section 80 drop was the day he surpassed Wayne, and every album since has been just a new bar set for Wayne to achieve but couldn't reach.
@@xavier2361 all honesty bro its hard for me to take that stance. I completely understand what you're saying, but how many songs is still remembered by the public when it comes to the Carter.? then apply the same question to Section .80.
@@hectorpena0122 wdym bro no one who casually listens to section 80 could name more than 5,6 songs other than rigamourtous and ADHD and that. Tha Carter series got Go Dj, Fireman, Mrs Officer, Lollipop, Got money, A Millie, 6 foot 7 foot mirror, the streams on those songs say it all how the public favours it, Kendrick is the goat but section 80 got nothing on tha Carter series, maybe the first or 5th but not the others
No, no they don't. Location of the game has never mattered. Wayne has earned his spot on the hip hop Mt Rushmore but, I'll let you fill in the rest on what that means.
They both are greats and Kendrick looked up to him on his way up and even when he was hot. No need to create some fake beef btw Wayne and Kendrick. But Wayne unfortunately isn’t the best choice for that stage
6:06 YOO I REMEMBER WATCHING THAT PERFORMANCE LIVE ON TV😭 ALL THE LIGHTS WERE OFF AT THE HOUSE AND THE SCREEN WAS FLASHING 🔥 Whole living room was a vibe like it had strobe lights🤣
Bro, NFL literally picks the most famous artist of the past year.... Everytime...lil wayne can make appearance? But headline it? No shot! I love his bangers!
being from somewhere does not give you innate right to it. this is the story of the united states some real silly dialogue being made wayne needs to come out with Kendrick and disavow Drake if he wants any credibility to be left in tact - the protege shagged his missus whilst he was locked up - its disgraceful
None of the other hometown hip-hop/rap artists from N.O. were chosen either. It's business, advertising dollars, and what's so popular, it's mainstream. Besides, Nikki, Birdman, and others cackling about injustice for Wayne probably messed up the fact Kendrick could've surprised everyone with Wayne popping up for a few minutes as a surprise guest like Dre with the artists he had with him during halftime. But all this noise, even if it's decided that they would bring out Wayne somehow, it'd be awkward now, heading towards forced.
Surpassed might be the wrong word rn. Tho I will say as far as timing and how the year has gone…Kendrick is a hot topic and Wayne can’t remember the words to his songs and looks terrible rn. I feel bad fr but the SuperBowl is biggg business.
@@MattRandomnumber Drake's delusional fans believe everyone was listening to Drake's music before the battle between Kendrick and him. 3Not realizing that a huge number of people never accepted Drake as a legitimate Rapper or RNB artist. So they were really in disbelief when the battle was over that the real culture stated that Kendrick won the battle regardless of what his paid sponsors were saying.
@specialbreedsb78 stop bringing up a situation the even lil Wayne doesn’t give a fuck about if he don’t care why you as a fan bringing it up that’s weird
I was today years old when I found out where that "No, 🥷 no!" Came from. I remember hearing in that audio someone used when animating Like That but didn't know the source.
Wayne was forced to act like he gave a fuck about not getting the SB halftime show cuz of the Drake VS Kendrick beef & his ties to Drake. Nicki's tweet was pure instigating garbage. Nothing more, nothing less.
Your timeline is a little off I think. They already collaborated on c5 and did Mona Lisa before Kendrick released that clip of giving Wayne his flowers.
the rumor of a wayne/drake v. jay beef is just flat out wrong (at least before the super bowl - i’m sure now there is) , they have repeatedly worked together since jay tried to sign wayne, and since they dissed each other , and since drake and jay dissed each other. jay z is literally on drakes 2021 album
I’m tired of the Wayne cry babies. Dude should have cared about his legacy more than the drugs. He’s a junkie that can’t remember his own songs ! Jay jelous? Of what !? 😂😂 jay has Beyoncé, the nfl, roc nation give me a fucking break! Wayne struggles to get on a third rate sports talk show. He may have won the battle but in the long run jay won the war
Kendrick isn’t taking Wayne space. Wayne wasn’t invited period. I love you Wayne but salute lil bro for his accomplishment. All these rappers egos are too big.
Another thing that should be noted is one word, two letters...
Wrestlemania XL.

Woah woah woah I haven’t seen one single comment anywhere discrediting Kendrick for this opportunity. Everyone is happy that Kendrick is getting this opportunity clearly Wayne haven’t been in the right health space nor mental space to be able to perform at the Super Bowl like this, his past performances and him forgetting his own lyrics just showed why he shouldn’t get an opportunity like this.

When that West Coast clusterfuck went down at the Super Bowl halftime show a few years back, I was devastated seeing Kendrick there and thinking he deserved to perform on his own. I thought for sure they’d never give him his own stage. I feel so vindicated right now. Wayne’s gonna have to get over it.
How was that a clusterfuck??? That Superbowl halftime performance was one of the best of all time! You a 🤡.

0:46 didn't he have plenty of times in the past IDK 10 years to perform? That's kinda why idc that he's upset about it, he'll be aight. Plus a lot of his own fans say he can't remember his lyrics so he probably wouldn't be the best choice.

Both kendrick and lil Wayne are my goats always inspiring the youths
Same but i think they still friends after all since lil wayne doesnt fw drake no more
Or at least less then in 2006-2011
Yes Kendrick does inspire the Black youth in uplifting ways. Yet Lil Wayne is just the blind leading the blind when it come to speaking and rapping to our Black youth and all the other young people who are his fans., that guy drink lean he doesn't have to intelligence to guide anyone towards the right direction.

@@ThisIsTheGoat-u2rYou sound ignorant.Wayne is a washed up dope fiend.
He has never been SB material.
Kendrick is an elite artist and performer who has an excellent discography and has accolades unmatched by an artist.
Dot just came off the highest grossing solo tour ever by a rapper in March 2024.
Constantly putting out mid music means nothing 😅Dot has the luxury to drop music and pop out when he wants to and is impactful there really any rapper today.
The NFL is a business not a hip hop event.

lil wayne top 10 hell probably top 5 ever what kept him from being the goat is himself. Drug addiction he was his own worst enemy.
So true and shame on the peers around him allowing this.
THIS!! Everyone makes excuses for why he doesn't remember his lyrics or why he doesn't perform well but the truth is, the drugs have taken Wayne.
Shawn Michaels whispered, "i love you." to his idol Ric Flair before ending his career. Kendrick will do the same to Wayne.
Ayyyye that’s cold. Real 💩 though.
I hope wayne at least gets a feature at the superbowl, let the man have a taste of the hometown love.
Wayne was not 'campaigning'. Maybe manifesting, but saying you want it isn't campaigning. That would be putting on top performances, dropping hot music, cleaning up his public image and generally being in the centre of the public eye in a positive way.
“I WOULDN'T WANT TO GO PAST THAT, THOUGH I...] I CAN'T FATHOM BEING AS GREAT AS MICHAEL WITHOUT PUTTING OUT THE WORK, SO ELEVEN IS PERFECT.”
You did justice on this subject
Well deserved kung fu kenny
I would’ve loved Wayne to perform but it’s as he said he doesn’t remember his own lyrics, he has a track record of showing up late to shows and for the Super Bowl they have to have absolute perfection in their minds to believe the only thing that’ll stop it is the earth opening up and swallowing it
Include the fact that he’ll have to go to rehab and get of xans weed and lean because them withdrawals gon hurt

@@kingk3624 what does that have to do with him performing at the Super Bowl? He dropped lean years ago too so how is that relevant to him performing at the Super Bowl?
Jay paid Wayne’s tax lien he should be forever grateful period..
Jay tried to pull a Suge Knight move. Suge paid for Tupac to not only be released but to get him out of jail to I think something with a lawyer I have to double check. However Tupac repaid Suge by making the best album on the label. He was real enough to see who was there for him. Lil Wayne took that money and backhanded Jay Z and stayed with bird man before going independent
Idc who performs but this is Kendrick BEST year as an artist. And now better than Wayne it passed Wayne ? Why can’t we just enjoy it without comparing ? 😢
Not even top 3 year for Kendrick last time I checked😂.
Recency bias is strong though I don't blame y'all.
Honestly, I do think Wayne has enough time to shaped up for superbowl so im not buying the reasoning behind him not having it.
@@lungi8424Go watch his recent performances 😅pathetic.
Wayne is not SB material
No one is comparing dawg
this video came out because wayne made some statements online
I think it says something that the first people that started talking about Wayne not getting the halftime show were people that could financially benefit from him being there.
Birdman was one of the first, along with Nicki Minaj. Birdman would likely get some payout or at least thinks he would and Nicki would've wanted to feature on stage.
Drake Fans In The Comments Mad 😂 Y'all Had Months To Recover Tighten Up 🤣
That part 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lil Wayne should've headlined years ago
Years ago we wouldn't even get a hip-hop artist being the solo headline of the Superbowl. They would just be guests.
Good musician≠Good Super Bowl act.
This “it should’ve been Wayne”-thing is like being mad that Bob Dylan hasn’t won Eurovision. That’s not his genre, that’s not his audience and it would be sad and weird if him or his fans went on a media campaign complaining and saying he was “excluded”.
Pretty sure the GOAT Dylan hasn't been on Eurovision and never will be as he's not from Europe? 😂@@notcompletelynormal
I barely even listen to rap, why am I so invested in your videos??? My eyes were watering watching that clip of Wayne breaking down ;n;

Exactly bro
kendrick is ontop of the game right
while lil wayne has alotta complications both mentally and physically
CONGRATS KENDRICK LAMAR 🎉
I do think Kendrick going stratospheric makes good business sense. It's just all wrong timing for Wayne.
Kendrick has transcended hiphop itself like wayne,drake,em,2pac,biggie,50 cent,Nf,Nashville,Cole, and many others. They've created a cult like following thing is when you are like Kendrick, you have the full respect if a majority audience and that is insane especially with the boundaries he seems to push with his sound. Current cultural impact matters probably more than overall
It’s all fun and games until they out due you! Keep going Kendrick 🎉
Wayne would've forgotten 80% of his own lyrics if he performed. Kendrick for the WIN 😂
The Superbowl is booked way in advance. Kendrick probably knew last year
The question is. Why did he not get to perform in the superbowl in his prime? I love wayne btw.
The NFL didn’t do rap acts back then, that wasn’t until Jay entered the picture

Lil Wayne hasn't been a young black man for quite some time 😂 14:01
I think it’s sad that Wayne’s being seen the way he is right now…but unfortunately I suspect he’s not healthy enough to perform on such a stage with the epilepsy and memory loss that would cause him to be a liability.
And that’s not necessarily his fault. This must be hard for him. I think all the attention isn’t great, his mgmt didn’t seem to be on it or managing expectations well at all. Don’t think it’s a JayZ issue
It's not that, he is a terrible live performer. He makes great studio music but this ain't the studio. He has repeatedly forgotten lyrics to his own songs live on stage.
0:24 I was right along with him feeling like that

Nah, he won’t. Wayne is absolute garbage live.
Lil Wayne is a mess right now - if he was off drugs, in shape, remembered his own lyrics and was an amazing performer I’m sure that he’d be a much worthy contender to be in the Super Bowl.
Lil Wayne just needs to clean up his act.
i dont care what anyone says tbh, the day that Section 80 drop was the day he surpassed Wayne, and every album since has been just a new bar set for Wayne to achieve but couldn't reach.
Nah no way, the Carter series is too legendary, u could argue that he has passed him now but definitely not when he released section 80
@@xavier2361 all honesty bro its hard for me to take that stance. I completely understand what you're saying, but how many songs is still remembered by the public when it comes to the Carter.? then apply the same question to Section .80.

some real silly dialogue being made
wayne needs to come out with Kendrick and disavow Drake if he wants any credibility to be left in tact - the protege shagged his missus whilst he was locked up - its disgraceful
Lil Wayne does not care about Tammy stop bringing that up
None of the other hometown hip-hop/rap artists from N.O. were chosen either. It's business, advertising dollars, and what's so popular, it's mainstream.
Besides, Nikki, Birdman, and others cackling about injustice for Wayne probably messed up the fact Kendrick could've surprised everyone with Wayne popping up for a few minutes as a surprise guest like Dre with the artists he had with him during halftime.
But all this noise, even if it's decided that they would bring out Wayne somehow, it'd be awkward now, heading towards forced.
Exactly. Even if Kendrick brings out Wayne, it won’t be enough for them. They’ll just say he did it to avoid backlash.
Surpassed might be the wrong word rn. Tho I will say as far as timing and how the year has gone…Kendrick is a hot topic and Wayne can’t remember the words to his songs and looks terrible rn. I feel bad fr but the SuperBowl is biggg business.

you can't lose something you never had, wayne has been complete cheeks these last years. Up wayne but Kendrick is unmatched
Wayne was forced to act like he gave a fuck about not getting the SB halftime show cuz of the Drake VS Kendrick beef & his ties to Drake. Nicki's tweet was pure instigating garbage. Nothing more, nothing less.
Your timeline is a little off I think. They already collaborated on c5 and did Mona Lisa before Kendrick released that clip of giving Wayne his flowers.
the rumor of a wayne/drake v. jay beef is just flat out wrong (at least before the super bowl - i’m sure now there is) , they have repeatedly worked together since jay tried to sign wayne, and since they dissed each other , and since drake and jay dissed each other. jay z is literally on drakes 2021 album
