LL urges Weezy to wait for his time
LL Cool J offers some consolation to Lil Wayne after repeatedly lamenting about the Super Bowl Halftime performance snub that saw Kendrick Lamar selected to headline the show instead.
Recently speaking to Fat Joe on his new talk show on STARZ, LL said: “Lil Wayne is one of the most talented dudes on the planet, period. He’s one of our great artists, he’s an unbelievable writer,” he explained. “He’ll have his day — let Kendrick get that. Let’s keep it moving. I never did the Super Bowl!”
He added: “Wayne comes from a very proud state, Louisiana, and a very proud city, New Orleans. But this is the thing: your time will come, you’ll have your day […] You can’t let that break you.
“The only reason it makes me laugh is because I know how blessed he is, I know how successful he is. So he don’t need to worry about that moment. It’s just a moment, bro. It’s just one moment. It happens.
“Let me put it into perspective: I’m in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. I got not put in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame it felt like 999,000 times before I got in. It didn’t break me. I didn’t even make a comment. As a matter of fact, I laughed.”
