Roommates, Birdman is going viral on social media after footage went viral showing him seemingly falling asleep onstage during a recent Hot Boys reunion show. Footage of the Cash Money mogul hit the internet on Tuesday, Feb. 25 and you already know the internet has a lot to say about it.
The now-viral clip Complex shared on X (formerly Twitter) shows Birdman onstage with Turk, B.G., and Juvenile. The recording shows him onstage holding a microphone while wearing a black bomber jacket with an icy chain and some sunglasses. The video sees the 56-year-old rapper standing behind Turk, nodding to the track before going completely still, looking like he’s knocked out cold. B.G. laughed it off and tried waking him up by brushing him off to snap him out of his deep sleep.
As of right now, Birdman hasn’t said a word about seemingly falling asleep onstage, but he’s been hyping up the Hot Boys tour via his Instagram Stories. Furthermore, there’s been no word on his condition after the show either.
Birdman seemingly went night-night onstage during his reunion with Lil Wayne and the Hot Boys for their tour that kicked off in Tampa earlier this month. The crew also hit up Charlotte, N.C. They are also set to perform one last show in St. Louis on Friday, February 28. This three-night tour comes after Wayne and the Hot Boys reunited at Weezyana Fest 2024 in New Orleans marking the first time they’ve performed their classic hits together in over 20 years.
Birdman, as well as the Hot Boys, haven’t said anything about his apparent onstage nap, but of course, social media went OFF with reactions on X. Some fans expressed their worries and concerns, while others couldn’t help but crack some lil’ about it. Keep on scrolling to see what the internet has to say below.
