Although Lil Wayne apologized for the asinine statements he made on the Black Lives Matter movement during a recently aired interview with ABC’s Nightline—first appearing to be unaware of the movement, then saying, “I don’t feel connected to a damn thing that ain’t got nothin’ to do with me … ”—that still didn’t stop his boy, rapper T.I., from giving him the business.
