When asked about potential projects following the highly anticipated Las Vegas event, he stated, “We got the tour coming.

  • Lil Wayne Missed Verzuz Due To Illness

    Fans were left wondering why Lil Wayne was absent from the highly anticipated Cash Money vs. No Limit VERZUZ battle. Now, Hot Boys member B.G. has stepped forward to clarify the situation, confirming that Weezy’s absence was due to illness, not any internal conflicts or scheduling issues.

    Health Concerns Led to Withdrawal

    During an appearance on The Breakfast Club on October 31, B.G. explained that Lil Wayne fully intended to participate in the VERZUZ event. However, his health took an unexpected turn just before the show, forcing him to withdraw.

    ‘Shorty wasn’t feeling good, man,’ B.G. stated, adding that Wayne also canceled a scheduled performance at Drai’s on the same night. This indicates the illness was significant enough to impact multiple commitments.

    A Matter of Health, Not Hostility

    B.G. stressed that the decision was purely health-related and urged his longtime collaborator to prioritize his well-being. ‘Like I told him, we ain’t spring chickens no more, man,’ the rapper commented, emphasizing the importance of rest and maintaining good health.

    The absence was particularly disappointing for VERZUZ cofounder Swizz Beatz, as Lil Wayne’s participation was a key factor in securing the event. B.G. shared that Swizz was ‘hurt behind it’ because Wayne’s agreement was instrumental in moving forward with the battle.

    The VERZUZ Battle Carries On

    Despite Lil Wayne’s absence, the VERZUZ battle between Cash Money and No Limit still delivered a memorable celebration of Southern hip-hop history. Mia X received widespread acclaim for her powerful performance, while Juvenile represented Cash Money with energetic renditions of hits like ‘Back That Azz Up’ and ‘Ha.’

    In a somber postscript, Young Bleed of No Limit was hospitalized shortly after the event due to a serious medical emergency. While No Limit ultimately claimed victory, the night highlighted the enduring legacies of both labels. As B.G. clarified, Lil Wayne’s absence was a health issue, not a sign of discord.

  • B.G. Explains Lil Wayne’s Verzuz Absence

    Fans were buzzing about the massive Cash Money and No Limit Verzuz battle, but one notable absence had everyone talking: Lil Wayne. While he’s been seen with his Cash Money family on other occasions, Weezy was nowhere to be found at ComplexCon for the highly anticipated event. Now, B.G. is stepping in to clear the air.

    During a recent interview on “The Breakfast Club,” B.G. explained that Lil Wayne’s absence wasn’t due to any drama or beef, but rather a health issue. “I talked to Wayne the morning before the Verzuz,” B.G. shared. “Shorty wasn’t feeling good. He had a concert the same night. And he canceled that as well.”

    Illness and Hospitalization Cited

    B.G. elaborated that Lil Wayne had indeed planned to be there and even informed Swizz Beatz, one of the Verzuz creators, about his situation. “He told me that he wasn’t feeling good and he had to go to the hospital or something like that,” B.G. revealed. He emphasized that people shouldn’t jump to conclusions, suggesting the illness was the genuine reason for his no-show.

    The Hot Boy rapper also offered some fatherly advice to his fellow artists, including Lil Wayne, stressing the importance of health, especially after decades in the demanding music industry. “Like I told him, man, we ain’t spring chickens no more. You got to make sure your health… Get your rest, you been running 35 years strong.”

    Future Tours and Ongoing Beefs

    When asked about the possibility of a Cash Money and No Limit tour, B.G. remained tight-lipped, stating he couldn’t definitively answer. However, he expressed a desire to see Lil Wayne participate and acknowledged that the financial incentive might be appealing, even for artists who are already wealthy.

    The interview also touched upon the ongoing tensions between Turk and other Cash Money members, including Birdman, which has led to lawsuits. Birdman himself even called out Turk during the Verzuz event, indicating that the drama within the Cash Money camp is far from over. It remains to be seen how these internal conflicts will affect future collaborations and tours.
