Joe Budden sheds light on a missing piece of the puzzle between Lil Wayne and Kendrick Lamar, sparking a wave of intrigue.
- Lil Wayne reveals he had a chat with Kendrick Lamar about the Super Bowl scenario, claiming all is well between them.
- Joe Budden points out a discrepancy in the timeline, suggesting the conversation happened before Kendrick’s track was released.
- Budden believes this justifies Wayne’s fiery social media response as something Kendrick might have raised earlier.
- Wayne’s reaction to the song included a spirited post on X, affirming his reputation for bold statements.
Joe Budden recently stirred the pot by revealing a crucial detail missing from Lil Wayne’s account of his chat with Kendrick Lamar. Wayne had said the conversation took place amid a Super Bowl dispute with Kendrick. However, Budden highlighted a timing issue: the talk happened before Kendrick’s track drop.
Lil Wayne told Skip Bayless that he and Kendrick were on good terms, burying any lingering issues after the Super Bowl halftime drama. Despite not having heard Kendrick’s new track, Wayne reacted intensely on social media right after its release, seemingly without prior notice of its content.
From Joe Budden’s perspective, Wayne’s public reaction was understandable. If the conversation occurred before the track’s release, the abrupt social media flare-up made sense; Kendrick might have mentioned it during their call, prompting Wayne’s defensive move.
On his podcast, Budden elaborated that Wayne’s tweets came after they spoke, dismissing any subsequent communication between them. Therefore, Wayne’s outburst appeared not just as a random rant but possibly as a response to a pre-discussed topic.
Kendrick’s lyrics referenced his admiration for Wayne yet suggested a feeling of being let down. This might have hit Wayne in an unexpected way, prompting his post that warned others not to mistake his silence for weakness.
Wayne’s emotional reaction unfolded publicly on X, where he made it clear that he was simply “chillin'” before feeling targeted. His post sternly warned others against poking the sleeping giant, reaffirming his subtly comedic but serious stance on being left in peace.
Budden suggested that Wayne attempted to reach out to Kendrick after hearing the track, but the conversation never took place again, leading Wayne to consider a musical response, though he later decided against it. Despite no imminent track release, the story brewed speculation.
A misalignment in the timeline of events colors the narrative, leaving fans craving further clarity.
