Skip Bayless details his friendship with Lil Wayne.
Skip Bayless, the legendary sports media personality shares a great friendship with Lil Wayne, and the two often speaks highly of each other. Lil Wayne recently invited Bayless and his wife to his Los Angeles mansion, which was shared by the sports columnist on his social media recently. In the latest episode of his “The Skip Bayless Show”, he was asked about what is it like being such a close friend with the rapper.

“I am not bragging about it, I’m not looking to publicize it. The reason I am going to talk about is, I am deeply proud of my relationship with Dwayne Michael Carter Jr,” he said. “Because he’s more of a brother to me than my real brother ever has been. That’s from the depth of my heart and soul. We are so much alike at our course. Neither of us cares what anybody thinks about us. We’re both our own man, that we do and say what we believe is right. And I know Wayne looks up to me and what I achieved in my business and I look way up to him in his creative genius.”
The Los Angeles Lakers were blown out by the New Orleans Pelicans in alarming fashion on Sunday night, despite James pouring in 32 points. With Lil Wayne’s Los Angeles Lakers struggling mightily and no one slandering LeBron James more than Skip Bayless, the Lakers were most likely brought up in conversation.
Skip — or “Drip Bayless,” as Wayne refers to him — went on to upload a few more images of him and his wife hanging out with Wayne and his pal Scoob. Because Skip teased filming a section of their chat in an Instagram message, they might have been taping a piece for Undisputed. Skip has previously stated that he like Wayne’s music.
He continues, “What drew me to Wayne initially… was his sports intellect. Trust me on this, never encountered anything like Wayne’s sports intellect. His passion for sports at the highest and deepest level.”
