Lil Wayne Breaks Silence On Super Bowl Decision: “It Broke Me”

Lil Wayne emotionally addresses the backlash after Kendrick Lamar was chosen to headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show in New Orleans, expressing deep disappointment and pain. In a candid video, he thanks his supporters for their encouragement and admits to not being mentally prepared for the letdown. Despite feeling broken, Lil Wayne finds solace in the support he received and vows to work on himself, acknowledging that he let his fans down by missing out on the opportunity. “I blame myself for not being mentally prepared for a letdown and for just automatically mentally putting myself in that position; like somebody told me that was my position,” Wayne said. “But I thought there was nothing better than that. That stage and that platform in my city. So that hurt. It hurt a whole lot.”
