Super Bowl LIX is still five months away, but it’s been a hot topic on social media for the last 24 hours. Kendrick Lamar is the Halftime Show’s headliner , and the reactions to his forthcoming performance in New Orleans on Feb. 9 are all over the place. Lil Wayne has heavily been a part of the conversation. Master P has already advocated for the NOLA native’s involvement in the show. Now, fellow artists like Nicki Minaj , Birdman , Boosie , Akbar V, and Cam’ron are also speaking out!
Nicki Minaj & Birdman Speak Out About Super Bowl Headliner
On Monday (Sept. 9), Nicki Minaj took to X (formerly Twitter) to praise Lil Wayne’s career and contributions to hers and Drake’s. Her comments came amid the trending conversation of Lil Wayne allegedly being passed over as the Super Bowl headliner. Whether he was ever a choice or offered the opportunity remains unclear. Wayne has not yet publicly reacted to Lamar securing the stage.
“Denying a young black man what he rightfully put into this game for no other reason but your ego. Your hatred for BIRDMAN, Drake & Nicki got you punishing Lil Wayne?!?!!! LIL WAYNE!!!!!!!!!! THE GOAT?!!!!!!!!!!! Nola, what’s good?!!!!!! Eminem stood firm on having 50Cent come out. A white man. Shi*, sad. House N****R TINGZ. but it’s GOOD FI DEM!!!!!!! No loyalty? Welp. then n****z will keep son’ing you!!!!! #DTLR #GagCityDC LMFAOOOOOOOOOO GOODAZ FI DEL GAL U AH GOODAZ FI DEM,” Nicki wrote.
As mentioned, she also gave insight into how Wayne put her and Drake on with no official paperwork, from letting them perform on his tour to hopping on her mixtapes.
“This man has literally changed the FACE of hip hop. The hair too. IYKYK. He inspired so many to tat their faces & get locks. Inspired your faves to wanna be a great MC. he never was in this for the money. It’s always been for the love of music,” Nicki added.
Additional posts from Nicki Minaj’s X timeline show her speaking on someone being “spiteful,” “evil,” and “disgusting.” Furthermore, she stated that one man “took a knee” while another “took the bag.” However, she didn’t specify whom her messages were about.
A few hours later, Nicki circled back to continue popping off about Wayne’s alleged snub and continued to shade an unnamed person.
“God forbid if Wayne was to leave this earth right now, the culture would be in mourning. That’s why so many ppl keep saying to give our legends their flowers while they are still around to smell them. Sitting around all day playing games with ppl life & legacy. God ain’t sleep. Gee Roberson you will learn that, too. Very soon,” she wrote. Adding, “Want n****z to suck his d**k for a Grammy. want them to suck his d**k to do the half time show. LOL. Glad I did it already. LMFAO. threatening any outlet who shows me love. NIGLET IF U DONT GET GONE.”
Birdman also took to X with his thoughts on Kendrick’s NFL spotlight. He implied that he’ll make sure he, Nicki, Drake and Lil Wayne are respected, but didn’t explain how. “Hatin sh*t 4real,” he wrote in a second post.
Boosie, Akbar V & Cam’ron Share Their Halftime Show Reactions
Boosie also wasted no time making it clear where he stands on Kendrick Lamar taking the Super Bowl stage in Louisiana. The Baton Rouge native dropped a strong message on X about the headliner choice, writing in a hashtag that he doesn’t “respect it.”
“ALL YALL ACTING LIKE YALL COOL WITH HOW THEY PLAYING IT FOR THE SUPERBOWL SMH THE MOST CULTURAL CITY N THE USA( NEW ORLÉANS)ITS A SMACK N THE FACE TO EVERY HIP HOP LEGEND FROM LOUISIANA

Atlanta native and rising rapper Akbar V clarified that she doesn’t want to pit Lil Wayne and Kendrick Lamar against each other. However, she also believes that Tunechi should’ve been tapped. “Ion care, it’s kind of messed up,” she wrote on X. She then challenged industry peers to speak up before seemingly joking about personally speaking to Jay-Z and Beyoncé about the Super Bowl headliner choice.
Meanwhile, like Nicki Minaj, Cam’ron implied that Lil Wayne “got into it” with someone involved in the Super Bowl halftime show and that not being tapped to perform was “payback.” Swipe below to see everything he said.
