His Tweet Raises Eyebrows
Lil Wayne’s tweet raised eyebrows and sparked reactions in TSR’s comment section.
Instagram user @cam1alexander wrote, “When did Wayne start doing this ‘poor me’ story every year man ”
While Instagram user @__queenshea added, “Weezy you already a certified legend. The grammys are beneath you at this point”
Instagram user @jonesounds wrote, “The Fall of Young Money has to be studied ”
While Instagram user @liztherealto added, “He’s too good of a legend to cry over validation”
Instagram user @2amillion wrote, “You gotta get away from Nicki ”
While Instagram user @princessmaribaby added, “wayne shouldve got a grammy back in 07″
Instagram user @shayasanders wrote, ÜIm tired of Young Money as a whole, they all crybabies.”
While Instagram user @louisthehippie added, “But what has he put out to be nominated? Asking as a fan”
Instagram user @natasha_nubian wrote, “Despite him not dropping new music lately , cant ignore the fact that Lil Wayne is who he thinks he is. He has some hits, we need new ones too ”
While Instagram user @6_figure_p added, “Two things can be true. He should have way more Grammys but just not in 2026”
Instagram user @officiallyroyaltayy wrote, “Him and NICKI ALWAYS CRYING ”
While Instagram user @forever_next_door added, “I don’t think it’s his time anymore, and that’s fine. He’s already cemented in music history as a legend- its time for the new artists to get their shine the same way he did in his prime. His body of work and numbers speak way louder than any Grammy could. ”
This Isn’t The First Time Lil Wayne Has Shared His Disappointment About Not Being Included
As The Shade Room previously reported, in September 2024, Lil Wayne expressed his disappointment with not being chosen to headline Super Bowl LIX, which was held in his hometown of New Orleans, Louisiana.
Ultimately, Kendrick Lamar was chosen to perform at the 2025 Super Bowl, and by November of 2024, Wayne shared that he felt the opportunity was “ripped” from him.
Ultimately, Wayne ended up teasing ‘Tha Carter VI’ and shared that he didn’t tune in to watch Lamar’s performance.
