Lil Wayne Reportedly Prepares Diss Track After Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Nod and Album Reference

Lil Wayne allegedly recorded a response to Kendrick Lamar after being referenced on Lamar's latest album and feeling snubbed for the Super Bowl halftime show in his hometown.

• Lil Wayne reportedly attempted to contact Kendrick Lamar after being referenced in the song 'Wacced Out Murals' on Lamar's new album 'GNX,' but Lamar did not respond to the call.
• Joe Budden revealed on his podcast that Wayne entered the recording booth to create a response track after Lamar failed to return his call.
• Wayne expressed frustration on social media, asking why he was targeted and warning against disturbing him, while emphasizing his preference for peace.
• The tension between the two artists may also stem from Lamar being selected to headline the Super Bowl LIX halftime show in New Orleans, a role Wayne believed would have been fitting for him in his hometown.
• Lamar's lyrics in 'Wacced Out Murals' reference Wayne's influence on him but also suggest disappointment, which some interpret as a critique of Wayne's current relevance.
