Lil Wayne’s Longtime Engineer Is ‘Confused’ By Kendrick Lamar Being Selected As The Super Bowl 2025 Halftime Show’s Featured Performer
The NFL is officially back. It is next to impossible to predict which franchise will play in the championship game. However, music fans already know what to look forward to for Super Bowl 2025’s Halftime Show in New Orleans.
Today (September 8), Kendrick Lamar announced that he would perform during the highly watched television performance. Initially, users online were excited to read the news. However, other quickly chimed in to express their frustration over hometown hero Lil Wayne being overlooked despite publically entering his bid.
Lil Wayne’s longtime engineer and friend, Fabian Marasciullo took to his Instagram Stories to voiced his displeasure. “Confused,” he wrote. “Disappointed. Angry. But most of all, inspired.”
He went on to seemingly shade Kendrick Lamar, writing: “Will never again be in a position or have the GOAT [Lil Wayne] in a position where we are at the mercy of someone else’s decision. We will make the decisions.”
Rumors about Super Bowl 2025’s Halftime Show performers have been floating around online for months. At one point, pop stars Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift were supposedly in talks with the NFL to secure the spot. The public now knows that to be seemingly false.
Although Kendrick Lamar is set to take the stage, maybe he will bring Lil Wayne out. They do have a collaborative track (“Mona Lisa”) together, but given Lil Wayne’s close affiliation with Drake users doubt that would happen due to their heated beef on wax this summer alone.
Tyrese Claims That He Could Be Arrested Soon Over Ongoing Divorce & Child Support Drama
Tyrese Gibson dropped another bombshell claim about his ongoing divorce with Samantha Lee on his Instagram on Sunday (September 8). Moreover, he fears that authorities will arrest him in Atlanta court tomorrow due to Lee’s lawyers allegedly being allies of the judge in the case, Kevin M. Farmer. The judge apparently demanded that the actor and singer cancel his press run for his movie and album, and Gibson said that they will appeal all the rulings after trying multiple times to assure Farmer’s recusal. Also, he claims that the judge illegally cracked his prenup agreement to increase one of his child support payments.
As you can see in the IG post below, this is all a very complicated and contentious situation, one that Tyrese has been very open and emotional in speaking on. His recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, for example, was a tough moment for him. It didn’t help that Joe Budden and others online called this appearance “bitter” and felt like the Los Angeles native was doing too much. Gibson actually called Budden out on social media, stating that he can’t relate to how he actually feels because he’s never been married.

Tyrese Fears That He Will Be Arrested In Court
Another point of contention for Tyrese was how there are co-hosts on Joe Budden’s podcast that are more loyal and respectful to him than the Slaughterhouse MC himself, despite their long bond. This all arrived at a very difficult time, because Gibson had planned a social media break. As we see now, this clearly didn’t last long. Considering all that’s going on right now, we don’t even know if this is a possible avenue anymore. Nevertheless, all we can hope for is that he prioritizes real-life fulfillment, peace, and satisfaction rather than ignoring that to seek online validation.
Meanwhile, on a lighter note, Tyrese discussed an interesting question with Shannon Sharpe during their Club Shay Shay conversation. “Who’s a bigger rapper globally? Most famous of the two. Jay-Z or Snoop Dogg?” he inquired. “If Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg were in a mall in Moscow, who would shut the mall down? [Snoop Dogg is the] biggest f***ing superstar in the world. That’s my big homie. Long Beach, West Coast, I wish a motherf***er would.”

Jay-Z Speaks On Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Halftime Show
Kendrick Lamar finally popped out again after his Drake battle to announce that he’s hitting up an even bigger stage next year. The hip-hop world is very excited to see what he does for his Super Bowl LIX halftime show in New Orleans on February 9, and if not, they’re morbidly curious. Moreover, Jay-Z issued a statement as the NFL’s entertainment curator, contributing to the many Drizzy fans angry at him for allowing this to happen. Jokes aside, let’s not forget the reason why the sports league brought Hov into the fold in the first place, and how many issues of social justice and the treatment of the Black community in the league are still prevalent and unaddressed.
“Kendrick Lamar is truly a once-in-a-generation artist and performer,” Jay-Z said of the battle victor who wants “no Round 2s” with Drake. “His deep love for hip-hop and culture informs his artistic vision. He has an unparalleled ability to define and influence culture globally. Kendrick’s work transcends music, and his impact will be felt for years to come.” Here’s Kendrick’s own brief statement on the matter: “Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date. And I’ll be there to remind the world why. They got the right one.”

Jay-Z’s Statement On Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Halftime Show
While this is all incredibly exciting, even the biggest Kendrick Lamar Stans on the planet have their reservations about this. As mentioned before, the shadow of the NFL looms large, especially considering that Kendrick omitted his line about police when he performed “Alright” at the 2022 halftime show. Also, many fans think that Lil Wayne was more deserving of this spot since he’s actually from New Orleans. Even his longtime engineer and producer seemed to speak out against the NFL’s decision.
Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see what happens with Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show. It’s going to be a massive moment and will surely be an impressive and compelling affair despite these qualms and debates. Elsewhere, other fans are hoping that his good friend is correct in previewing a possible collaboration with Playboi Carti. But like always, when it comes to Kendrick, we can’t do much more other than be patient and rest assured that it’ll hopefully be something special.

Fans Believe Rihanna And Naomi Campbell Have Beef Following A Viral Video, But It Is Reportedly One-Sided
Supporters believe Asap Rocky isn’t the only person in the Fenty household with a longstanding feud. Users online are convinced that Rihanna and Naomi Campbell are involved in a heated quarrel.
A viral video (viewable here) of Rihanna seemingly ignoring Naomi Cambell during a New York Fashion Week event on September 6 has users online in a tizzy. As the “Lift Me Up” singer made her way through the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum to her assigned seat of Alaia fashion the two fashion heavyweights seems to brush each other off.
Fans of each lady began to dig into the interaction further. Other clips from the event show Rihanna greeting several notable attendees including fellow supermodel Linda Evangelista (viewable here). Still no warm exchange between Rihanna and Campbell or even Law Roach can be found.
After the whisper grew louder, a source close to the matter told TMZ that the beef was one-sided. An insider with connection to Naomi Campbell told that outlet that Campbell doesn’t have a problem with Rihanna. The individual pointed out that Campbell’s face lit up with a smile as Rihanna made her way towards Campbell, and she even attended to help when her garment got caught up in her shoes.
Could this be a case of public overthinking? Sure. So, until Rihanna or Naomi Campbell address the rumor it is probably best not to rack your brain over it.
Lil Wayne Fans & Collaborators Express Outrage Over Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl Halftime Show
So many hip-hop fans are excited for Kendrick Lamar’s recently announced Super Bowl LIX halftime show in New Orleans on February 9, 2025. However, even some of his strongest supporters admit that Jay-Z and the NFL missed out on a massive and more well-deserved opportunity to bring Lil Wayne to the massive stage. Whether it was Young Money goons or people who are typically Drake/Weezy haters, a lot of people discussed this move and made their case for the Cash Money icon. Not only that, but Tunechi’s engineer and producer Fabian Marasciullo took to his Instagram Story on Sunday (September 8) to seemingly react to Kendrick’s announcement.
“Confused. Disappointed. Angry. But most of all. Inspired,” he wrote on IG, which led many to assume that he was talking about the NFL picking Kendrick Lamar instead of Lil Wayne. “Will never again be in a position or have the [goat emoji] in a position where we are at the mercy of someone elses decision. We will make the decisions.” Of course, another element to consider is Wayne’s loyalty to Drake in regards to the Kendrick battle, plus the fact that the Compton lyricist mocked his Toronto rival’s teases toward a “Game 2.”

Another argument in Lil Wayne’s favor is that the next two Super Bowls will be in California, so Kendrick Lamar would’ve had his shot. Overall, though, it’s clear that the public’s reaction to all this – no matter where they lean – falls victim to the lack of public knowledge about the business background of all this. But maybe this conversation would all become moot if the pgLang creative brings Weezy out in February. It’s very unlikely when you consider Young Money’s family ties, but Kendrick sticking up for Wayne on “Not Like Us” indicates that he still has a lot of love for him. Check out more takes on this Super Bowl debate down below.
Fans Debate
If Kendrick was able to bring Wayne out especially since the Super Bowl is in NOLA, somebody is gonna have to pick me up off the floor from all the laughing I’m gonna be doing.

Listen… I’m not hating on KDot hosting the Super Bowl Halftime show… he’s definitely a big enough artist with enough hits to deserve it.
But NOBODY should be headlining the Super Bowl Halftime Show in New Orleans over Lil Wayne… NO FUCKING BODY

Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar and Lil Wayne almost collaborated on a Jay Rock song years before Kendrick and the rest of TDE made it to the top of the rap game. Eventually, they linked up on “Mona Lisa” off Tha Carter V. We’ll see if anything else happens soon that will inform or reveal more about this situation. If nothing else, we’re very excited for whatever greatness occurs on February 9… Even if we know that someone else should be taking the headlining spot.

Offset Addresses Bad Gyal Dating Rumors Amid Cardi B Divorce

“I took a pic with Anna Wintour the same way,” he explained alongside a photo of him and Wintour. “I CAME ALONE [cap emoji].” As for Bad Gyal, she shared a photo of her, Offset, and Doechii on her Instagram Story.

While it doesn’t look like there have been any updates on Offset’s love life lately, as far as fans know, these aren’t the only rumors surrounding him these days.
Yesterday, fans also began to speculate that Cardi B had given birth to their child, though this is unconfirmed. She was spotted on Instagram Live at what some social media users think was a hospital, and sources told AllHipHop that she and Offset’s child had arrived. “She didn’t publicly announce [the pregnancy] until she was six or seven months,” the source claimed.
