Within the 48 hours following the announcement that Kendrick Lamar can be headlining the Tremendous Bowl Halftime present in New Orleans subsequent February, Jay-Z’s Hip-Hop friends proceed to pile on the criticism as many really feel that Lil Wayne ought to’ve gotten the nod over Kung Fu Kenny.
After the likes of Lil Wayne’s studio engineer and Grasp P spoke on the topic, Nicki Minaj and Birdman have taken to social media to take photographs at Jay-Z for overlooking Nawlins native, Weezy for the Tremendous Bowl festivities. Taking to Twitter to specific her outrage over the selection, Nicki blasted Hov with a pointed tweet saying the choice to have Kendrick Lamar over Lil Wayne was pushed by Jay-Z’s “ego” and that he was merely punishing Lil Wayne over his hatred for Birdman, Drake and even herself.
We didn’t even know Jay hated them.
Nonetheless, Nicki continued to journey for Wayne whereas taking photographs at Jay for being “spiteful” and apparently even a few of Roc Nation’s workers.
Birdman in the meantime weighed in on the state of affairs himself however avoided going all out as Nicki Minaj did in her posts.
Take note Jay-Z paid off Lil Wayne’s multi-million greenback tax lien greater than a decade in the past when Wayne and Birdman had been on the outs. So there’s that.
Whereas many assume the choice to have Kendrick Lamar carry out on the Tremendous Bowl was strictly on Jay-Z, apparently the host metropolis will get to select who they wish to carry out the Tremendous Bowl Halftime present after they’re introduced with a listing of names. In different phrases, Jay-Z didn’t select Kendrick Lamar, New Orleans did. allegedly. Whether or not Wayne was on that quick listing or not is anybody’s guess, but it surely looks like everyone seems to be hating on Jay-Z for a call the place he in all probability didn’t have the ultimate say.
That being stated, we doubt that town of New Orleans goes to interject and reveal that it was they, and never Jay-Z who selected Kendrick Lamar and never Lil Wayne. Not after they’ve seen the backlash that Jay-Z received anyway.
