Lil Wayne Warns “I Shall Destroy If Disturbed” After Kendrick Lamar Lyric in GNX

Lil Wayne is calling for peace—but he’s making it clear he won’t back down if provoked.

The iconic rapper appeared to respond to a lyric from Kendrick Lamar’s latest album, GNX, where Wayne is mentioned, with a mix of frustration and caution. Without naming Lamar directly, Wayne took to X (formerly Twitter) to share his thoughts:

“Man wtf I do?! I just be chillin & dey still kome 4 my head. Let’s not take kindness for weakness. Let this giant sleep. I beg u all. No one really wants destruction, not even me but I shall destroy if disturbed. On me. Love.”

Lamar’s lyric, which sparked the response, comes from the track “wacced out murals,” where he reflects on his admiration for Wayne but also expresses a sense of irony:
“I used to bump Tha Carter 3, I held my Rollie chain proud. Irony, I think my hard work let Lil Wayne down… Got the Super Bowl and Nas the only one congratulate me, all these n**s agitated I’m just glad it’s on they faces.”

Chill Wayne, ion want Kenny to smoke you , u a legend

NFL SUPER BOWL HALF TIME SHOW

The verse seems to allude to the NFL’s decision to select Lamar as the headliner for the upcoming Super Bowl Halftime Show over Wayne. The event holds additional significance as it will take place in Wayne’s hometown of New Orleans.

During his recent Lil Weezyana Festival, Wayne expressed disappointment over being passed over for the opportunity, sharing with fans:
“I said to myself, ‘I want to be onstage for the Super Bowl one day, in front of my mom.’ And I worked my a* off to get that f**kin’ position. It was ripped away from me. But this moment right here—they can’t take that away from me.”*

Kendrick Lamar’s GNX and Its Impact

Kendrick Lamar’s surprise release of GNX, his sixth studio album, dropped on Friday afternoon and has already generated buzz. The project features collaborations with artists including AzChike, Deyra Barrera, Dody6, Hitta J3, Ink, Peysoh, Roddy Ricch, Sam Dew, Siete, SZA, Wallie the Sensei, and YoungThreat.

While the Super Bowl controversy adds another layer of intrigue, GNX further solidifies Lamar’s reputation for thought-provoking lyrics and unflinching honesty. However, whether this latest exchange between two rap legends will escalate or find a peaceful resolution remains to be seen.
