Cam’ron, a longtime rival of Roc Nation boos, Jay-Z, is speaking out after finding out that Lil Wayne will not be performing at next year’s Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans.
The NFL announced that Compton artist Kendrick Lamar will be the headlining act.
On his It Is What It Is podcast with Ma$e, Cam said that while he likes Kendrick Lamar, whom he called “one of the top artists of this generation, period,” he hates the selection.
Cam shared that he could not understand how Lil Wayne was passed over for the halftime show considring it’s in his hometown.
Lil Wayne has expressed his desire to perform at the Super Bowl in a previous interview, and he is one of the biggest artists to come out of Louisiana.
“It’s one person who’s stopping this. It’s not really a secret,” he continued, alluding to Jay-Z. “Lil Wayne had a problem with somebody before who’s kinda part of the organization running it. This is payback. Who’s Lil Wayne’s artist? Drake. This is crazy, bro. It’s ridiculous … Lil Wayne not to be performing in New Orleans for the Super Bowl is egregious, and it gotta stop.”
