Lil Wayne addresses getting snubbed for the Super Bowl in New Orleans.
Lil Wayne has been trending following the rapper getting snubbed for the Super Bowl Halftime show in his hometown New Orleans, and the Young Money mogul finally speaks on the whole situation. Kendrick Lamar was picked as the sole headliner for next year’s Super Bowl halftime show.
“First of all, I want to say forgive me for the delay. I had to get strength enough to do this without breaking,” Wayne said. “I’ma say thank you to every voice, every opinion, all the care, love and support out there. Your words turned into arms and held me up when I tried to fall back.”
He continued, “That hurt. It hurt a lot. You know what I’m talking about. It hurt a whole lot. I blame myself for not being mentally prepared for a letdown, and for automatically mentally putting myself in that position like somebody told me that was my position. So I blame myself for that.”
“But I thought that was nothing better than that spot and that stage and that platform in my city, so it hurt. It hurt a whole lot. But y’all are f–king amazing. It made me feel like sh-t not getting this opportunity and when I felt like sh-t, you guys reminded me that I ain’t sh-t without y’all… and that’s an amazing reality.”
“So, like I said, it broke me and I’m just trying to put me back together. But my God, have you all helped me. Thanks to all of my peers, my friends, my family, my homies on the sports television and everybody repping me. I really appreciate that, I really do. I feel like I let all of y’all down by not getting that opportunity, but I’m working on me and I’m working. So thank you,” he concluded.
