Lil Wayne Wants THIS Iconic Singer At His Wedding
During the Wednesday, October 7, episode of ‘The Joint Venture Show,’ host Craig Carton posed a series of listener-submitted questions to the rapper, including who he would choose to perform at his wedding. Wayne, 44, did not hesitate to name his first pick, revealing that R&B legend Anita Baker would be at the top of his list. “My first choice, of course, would be Miss Anita Baker,” he shared.
The rapper also acknowledged that he wouldn’t want to put any pressure on the 68-year-old singer to perform. If Baker couldn’t make it, Wayne said he would turn to R&B favorites Keith Sweat or Babyface instead. When Carton suggested Baker’s timeless hit ‘Sweet Love’ for the occasion, Wayne left the final song selection up to his bride-to-be.
