Juvenile clarified his comments about Lil Wayne not being tapped to headline this season’s Super Bowl Halftime Show. He and Mannie Fresh made appearance on Los Angeles-area radio show, Power 106’s Brown Bag Morning Show where they both addressed Kendrick Lamar being picked instead after being asked if they would perform if the Compton rapper extended an invite. “Oh, we there,” Juvie answered with no hesitation.
“Kendrick is one of the best performers we’ve ever seen. He’s top notch, especially in hip-hop. In the hip-hop world, and he raises the bar.
So it’s something that everybody want to see, and if he calls, I’m there. No problem.” Mannie then interjected that social media has a habit of mucking things up.
“The thing is, the internet always makes something that it’s not,” he said. “Because people felt like we took a side ’cause we said that it would be cool if Wayne was in it. Of course we going to say that — that’s from our team, but respectfully, Kendrick is that dude.
He’s a good dude.” See latest videos, charts and news See latest videos, charts and news Juvie added: “Never throwing shade on Kendrick not one time because I don’t live my life like that anyway. I don’t like to tear somebody else down to put somebody else in a position, right? But I felt like Wayne was campaigning for that spot, he came out months ahead of time and I’m like, well, if he’s asking for it, at least consider him — give him a call or something.
