The NFL is understood to have regrets over their selection of Kendrick Lamar as the performer for this year’s Super Bowl halftime show.
Lamar headlined the break during last Sunday’s game between the Eagles and Chiefs, completing one of the more controversial halftime show performances as he used it to ramp up his beef with Drake.
The Compton rapper’s show broke a longstanding record as his performance was the most-watched in Super Bowl history. However, the NFL apologized for the decision in a letter to Lil Wayne.
The league had several options for the halftime show leading up to the season’s curtain closer, including the New Orleans native. They ended up going with Lamar instead.
Skip Bayless, a close friend of Wayne’s, claimed the NFL sent the hip-hop mogul a written apology ahead of the game. The U.S. Sun has since confirmed this.
“The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that NFL bosses regretted snubbing New Orleans native Lil Wayne in favor of Grammy award-winning star Kendrick with sources now confirming an apology was sent over the choice,” the publication reported.
NFL Reportedly Considering Changes After Kendrick Lamar’s Performance
According to the outlet, league higher-ups are considering changes because they didn’t like the way the show was handled this year.
“We will push for change, as we don’t want to experience this kind of thing next season,” a source was quoted as saying. “The tension linked with Kendrick made us regret giving him the green light. I’m not the only one who thinks this way.”
There were also fears over potential backlash following Kendrick Lamar’s performance on Sunday, given that he doubled down on his pedophilia accusations against Drake. But the Canadian has yet to react.
