Jay Block! Akademiks breaks down Nicki Minaj calling out Jay Z for not picking Wayne & more stories! 

Didn't birdman try to have Wayne deleted so he didn't have to pay him🤔

If you’re seeing this comment I hope you become a multimillionaire.

The crazy part is these broke ass ppl not even going to the game

None of y’all paying $8k to go to this show. Stop the senseless arguing and enjoy the show from the couch like the rest of us 😁

All of this nasty work won’t stop Kendrick from performing 😂

Is Jay Z hating on Wayne or is Ak hating on Kendrick 🤣🤣

BOY STOP!! We not looking for Master P to be on the dang Super Bowl halftime show!! 😂 Ridiculous!

It's wierd she saying that, didnt Jay Z help out Lil Wayne with his debt, where was Cash Money 😂😂

Why yall mad....I could have sworn Drake just did this shit to School Boy Q 😂

Calling Jay Z a snake but tap dancing for Drake anytime he does some snake shit to his so called “brothers” you can’t make this up 😂

Y’all do know this like the 10th time the Super Bowl has been hosted in New Orleans and this is the first outrage for Wayne lol ppl

Superbowl is a business, they don't care about paying homage... Kendrick got the masses right now not just in USA but global fanbase

Yall not hurting for Wayne. Yall mourning for Drake. 🎤

Birdman didn’t help pay Wayne’s taxes. Nicki Minaj didn’t help pay Wayne’s taxes. Drake didn’t help pay Wayne’s taxes. Hating Jay-Z the only one who did 🤷🏾‍♂️

AK stop the cap y'all don't care about Wayne

this looks like children after they don’t get what they want

Y'all act like Wayne was promised this spot....😂

People always talk as if they know what goes into these things. Now when Jay Z get fired and the next 5 superbowl is headlined by Taylor Swift and Post Malone ft Shaboozy, we'll see who is complaining then

nah calling drake a pdf file 😅 at the superbowl is wild

If Drake was headlining AK would be fine with that

You a bozo lost all credibility to Glaze drizzy…jay z done more for Wayne than anyone complaining funny thing Wayne said it himself

All this is pathetic love Wayne in my top 5 all time artist but making this issue about Wayne not performing just to hate on Kendrick is stupid.

End of the day, kendrick is performing . So ppl need to get over it 😂

Wayne is still one of the best of all time. Kendrick puts on Broadway style shows with tons of choreography and live music. The super bowl requires THAT! The Mr Morale tour was incredible and definitely worthy of the super bowl. Wayne is still one of the best of all time and gets ultimate respect especially from Kendrick fans

Jay z paid 14 million to help Wayne you don’t spend that kinda money on someone you don’t like

All these rappers yappin.. if drake won none of this would be happening, blame him

Where was all this energy for Wayne in 2013 when they had the Super Bowl out there

Bruh didn’t drake just do the same ish to Kendrick artist performin Canada? if they’re beefin why do yall expect Jay to give Wayne a hand out? Lmao. This a power move

You just mad Drake not gonna be joining Wayne on that stage...who care what Boosie said

Ak is clearly hurt by kendrick performing and finding roundabout ways to hate. Bruh that Jay Z angle had me scratching my head 😅

Vlad & Boosie recording an interview as we speak. 😂

I LOVE IT... JAY-Z putting everyone in their place. The ultimate W.

Grown adults mad about who’s gonna sing at a football game, this world is so weird….

No Round 2 Bro...Let It Go

You know your the s***, when you cause all this conversation. Kendrick still performing 😎

This whole situation is corny, yall act like this been the first or the last time the superbowl taking place at New Orleans. The location can't be the reason, it's very obvious why some _actually_ wanted Wayne over Kdot

I don't blame Jay Ken is more popping then Wayne at the moment

Why is that we can’t just celebrate our people? We have to be better.

Now, it's been said that Jay doesn't pick the artist, it's the city that's hosting the Super Bowl that makes the pick lol.

Jayz gave lil Wayne $12,000,000 to get out of debt from Birdman after Jail ya hating

Wayne was the GOAT over ten years ago. I know it’s his home town but Kendrick is a better business move & cultural move for the NFL. This feels like more cope AK 😂

I wonder if Drake was the one performing if people would still be mad that it’s not Lil’ Wayne???

Do people not understand how they pick the artists? The NFL gives the host of the city to choose their artist. NOLA didnt vote for wayne they picked Kdot. His own city didnt pick him.

WAH! WAH!! WAAH!! KENDRICK STILL PERFORMING! LOLOL 😂

It was all fun and games when TDE couldn’t perform in Toronto… 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

It’s funny bc Jay didn’t make the short list.. The people of New Orleans did😭😭😭😭

It’s funny when you realize the New Orleans city officials is who made the final decision to book Kendrick 😂

It’s funny how many parallels can be pointed out between Hov & Drake in business yet Ak acts like one is the devil and one is His God😂 Nasty work

First of all....The City of New Orleans picks who performs....Not Jay z.....so all yall owe that man an apology......Nicki minaj dont know wtf she talking about.

Crying, crying, crying 😭😭😭😭

This like having a opp in the streets, but then asking him for a job. Like you know what time it is 🤷🏾‍♂️

THIS IS A REACH! I PROMISE JAY Z IS NOT THREATENED BY WAYNE PERFORMING AT THE SUPERBOWL ....NONE OF THESE RAPPERS ON HIS LEVEL IF HE IS THE ONE DOING THE CHOOSING....KENDRICK JUST WON THE BIGGEST RAP BATTLE OF ALL TIME AND IS THE REASON A DYING INDUSTRY GOT A SPARK AGAIN....ALSO HE WAS CHOSE BEFORE THE BATTLE THATS WHY THE FOOTBALL MACHINE IS BEING HEARD IN THE BEGINNING OF 6:16 IN LA.....THE TRUTH IS KENDRICK KNEW HE WAS PERFORMING AND BAITED DRAKE INTO A RAP BATTLE DRAKE COULDNT WIN...KENDRICK IS A SHREWED OPERATOR AND A MARKETING EVIL GENIUS

Whoever is saying that Jay Z is a Hater and is blocking Lil Wayne from preforming at the Super Bowl because of his hatred towards Drake and past beefs with Wayne, are the same people that was saying that Drake blocking TDE artists from performing in Toronto was a PowerPlay. So if that theory is correct (which I doubt)… why is what “they” claim Jay Z is doing is so egregious and what Drake did to TDE artists was within his rights? They were saying that Drake was flexing his power and showing the smaller artists that they weren’t on his level. Or is that Kendrick Lamar is a great artist and is hot right now and has the stage presence that fits the Super Bowl format !! Either way, it seems like a narrative of fake outrage is at play. PICK A LANE !!!

What bothers me most about this is if they announced Drake performing the superbowl Ak would not have this energy at all.

Just a few years ago yall was mad at Wayne for saying he don't know nothing about blm 😂😂

I’m drinking kool aid while watching this 😂🤦🏽‍♂️

Nicki talking bout respecting Legends she whilst beefing with lil kim and Remy ma , also where was she when wayne had tax issues

DAME DASH BIGGEST PROBLEM. HE NEVER SHUTS UP! HE LOSES MONEY EVERYTIME HE OPENS HIS MOUTH!

I hope these people are fighting just as hard for their local elected officials.

This is truly sad black people hating on black people because they feel some type of way about a culture vulture in Drake

😂😂 jay told y’all “I’m not a businessman I’m a business man”

People take shots at me, no response, I just flip and pop my collar like the Fonze….. Hov

The first time Ak posted and. Nicki and the Barbz aren’t getting blamed for everything 🤣

Never seen Ak so off base on a topic 😂

What is funny is Wayne performing with Kendrick's silly rabbits

Akademiks we can see through these narratives your trying to create. You're just mad that kendrick is performing 😂😂😂

Y’all mf complaining they going to have country singer next year🤣🤣

Another thing people forget about is the Super Bowl halftime show is a sponsored segment. Sorry to say there’s no way sponsors are choosing Lil Wayne over Kendrick Lamar today.

First the city chooses the final artist The committee selects the finalist Second watch lil Wayne wee performance

Nobody cares what Boosie or Niki says it’s Kendrick that’s it GET OVER IT!!!

Wayne from New Orleans but yet his a Green Bay packers fan, yall need to stfu and stop all this crying about performing for the Super Bowl, there been plenty of Super Bowl that’s happened in New Orleans and no one cared, they’ll be plenty more in the future, Wayne will get his time to shine

Wayne actually dissed tf outta Jay z when he Wayne first got out of jail very disrespectfully 😂talking about kidnapping B I’m sure he never forgot it

If it was Taylor swift would jay z get backlash for not picking Wayne ??

Akademiks I am so disappointed that you can't even do basic research on how they make the final picks. So the league starts with popular performers who appeal to as many people as possible and goes from there. However, it's not the NFL that chooses who takes the stage. The league comes up with a short list, but the host cities pick the Super Bowl halftime performers. You are so ignorantly wrong to not try to understand this.

Funny thing about it all is that it wasn't even Jay 😂 People showed their a$$ and no they look crazy

8:51 AK really the biggest instigator 😭😭

Jay Z hate on a different level 🤣

How tf everybody so mad when it was NEVER announced that Wayne was performing? Everybody just assumed that he was gonna perform since the SB was in New Orleans. What’s that old saying, you make an ASS outta yourself when you assume.

Ak sounds like a Drake fan complaining cause Kendrick got to headline superbowl you think if Jay Z picked Drake for the headliner AK would be complaining?

Kendrick is the best choice point blank period. Kendrick is a better representation of the culture.

Let’s be honest: Kendrick is family friendly, Wayne is not. There was no way Wayne was ever going to do the Super Bowl

Crazy because from what is said, the host city chose Kendrick.

Just an artist is not guaranteed to perform at the Super Bowl just because the Super Bowl is in their hometown. There is a lot of hype and momentum around Kendrick Lamar right now I totally understand why Kendrick was chosen. Kendrick might even bring Lil Wayne out to perform with him

Ak just mad cuz it’s k dot I bet u if it was Drake or durk we wouldn’t have this discussion

It’s really eye opening to see how bitter the industry is that Kendrick is on top. Lol who knew a kid from Compton would have these ppl so shook?!

Nicki acting like 50 going at somebody while promoting her stuff..😂

You are wrong bro. Jay doesn't make the final pick. So the league starts with popular performers who appeal to as many people as possible and goes from there. However, it's not the NFL that chooses who takes the stage. The league comes up with a short list, but the host cities pick the Super Bowl halftime performers.

this battle made a lot of people parasocial and conspiracy theorists. Just enjoy greatness this is good for hip hop music

People seem to just hate Jay-Z, but the facts are the host city of a Superbowl (New Orleans) makes the final decisions on who performs at the Superbowl halftime show. The producers of the show (Jay-Z/NFL) only provide a list of potential entertainers. So, if people are upset about Wayne being bypassed, blame the City of New Orleans.

Ak you proved the whole point by only finding 1 west coast act performing at a SB in cali! It's not based on where you're from!

Ak saying Kendrick and Wayne could headline together like he ain’t gon complain about Wayne not being a sellout after Kendrick obliterated Drake during the beef.

Bro u Drake fan not like us is gonna be fire performance

Jay Z paid Wayne's taxes, but Wayne also made music for his Tidal free wezzy album.

This aint 2010 wayne, THIS 2024 KDOT!

Yall really love drake that much huh 🤣 because I know you don’t care about no damn Super Bowl performance

Didn’t Drake sleep with Wayne’s girl when he was in Rikers? And where all them help and shouts out when Wayne beefing with Birdman from Nicki or Drake? Objectively speaking I don’t think Wayne is the right “fit” for the performance like what song is he gonna perform on live nation wide tv? Respectfully.

A Super Bowl in New Orleans and you have to pick one rapper to perform, it gotta be Wayne man lol Not mad at the Kendrick pick but Wayne would've been the perfect fit fr

That’s the most accurate and best line of 2024!!!!! Jay Z is a rattlesnake😂😂😂😂😂 so accurate

If I'm Kendrick, I wouldn't put none of these NO artists on my set. I wouldn't let no fake backlash bully me into adding anyone

I think something went off after Mr. Carter on the Carter 3. That would've been the last time they collaborated
