Weezy says he wasn’t prepared for missing out on Super Bowl Halftime gig
Lil Wayne shares his fans’ disappointment after NFL chose Kendrick Lamar over him for next year’s Super Bowl Halftime Show performance. In a clip that surfaced on Instagram, Tunechi thanked his supporters for standing behind him following the snub.
“That hurt. It hurt a lot. You know what I’m talking about. It hurt a whole lot,” Wayne explained. “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 fucking amazing. It made me feel like shit not getting this opportunity and when I felt like shit, you guys reminded me that I ain’t shit without y’all… and that’s an amazing reality.”
