New Name, Time To Level Up

from OGs Not Old Heads Hosted by Oktane and Shug

In this episode, we dive deep into the exciting and controversial news surrounding Kendrick Lamar’s selection as the headlining performer for the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans. While fans are buzzing about Kendrick's return to the big stage, not everyone is celebrating. Hometown legend Lil Wayne openly expresses his disappointment, revealing that he's hurt by not being chosen to represent New Orleans on such a grand stage. We'll break down his reaction, the cultural implications, and why some feel Wayne deserved the spotlight. To add to the drama, Nicki Minaj took to Twitter with a string of negative reactions, fueling speculation about potential tension in the rap community. We analyze her tweets, what they might mean for Kendrick, and how this all plays into the dynamics of the current Hip-Hop landscape. Join us as we unpack the layers of this major moment in music, dissect the reactions, and explore what this means for the culture.
