Seconds before performing “Can’t Be Broken“ off Tha Carter V on “Saturday Night Live” together (November 10th), Halsey got a tattoo on her lower bicep that was handwritten by Lil Wayne.

Taking to social media, Halsey shared a photo of her new ink that has the words “sins” and “forgiveness” along with a scale, which was done by artist Jonathan Valena aka JonBoy.

The tatt is a reference to Tunechi‘s “on my Libra scale I’m weighin’ sins and forgiveness” lyric from his “She Will” song featuring Drake off his Tha Carter IV album.

Halsey revealed that the inspiration behind her new tattoo is from her and Tune both being Libras and share the same astrological sign – scales. She even brought up a tweet that she wrote back in 2014:

“I’m a libra and so is lil Wayne and that’s all you’ll ever need to know about me.”

While backstage at the “Hot For The Holidays” concert in Newark, New Jersey on December 5th, Lil Wayne was presented with his very own customized hoverboard.

I’m not exactly sure that “hoverboard” is the official name for this new digital trend, which I’m sure you’re all familiar with as it has got really popular this year, because I’ve also seen them called “skywalkers”, “self balancing boards”, “foot scooters”, and “moonwalkers”.

Lil Wayne debuted his TRUKFIT clothing line and SUPRA skate shoes collection at the annual Magic Convention yesterday in Las Vegas, Nevada. MTV managed to get an interview with Weezy at the event to talk about why he decided to partner with SUPRA for his own shoe line.

“I was just rocking ’em when I was skating and stuff and when I got real cool with the homey Stevie Williams, it was like a plug from him. It was just a mutual respect on each end so it was just bound to happen.”

“I look at the reality and the facts of it, like I been rocking this shoe before I even knew what it was. So for me to start skating and for these shoe lines to start coming at me like, ‘Hey, we wanna give you your own skate shoe,’ it was only right for me to mess with the people I been messing with even before they were a skate shoe.”

The SUPRA shoes that Tune designed were originally supposed to drop in early 2013, but they will now be released in stores on May 1st, 2013.

Back in February, Lil Wayne hinted that he will design his own shoe line, but he did not give away too many details including which brand the shoes will be released from. Now SUPRA have announced that Weezy has teamed up with them for an exclusive partnership and confirmed that the first collection would be released in early 2013!

SUPRA is proud to announce an exclusive partnership with Lil Wayne. A full collection of new footwear designs, inspired and overseen by Lil Wayne, will be manufactured and distributed by SUPRA. There has been a longstanding respect between both parties: the SUPRA team cites Lil Wayne’s music as a source of inspiration, and Lil Wayne has embraced SUPRA and worn the Skytop since it was first introduced to the market in 2007. The collection of new models will launch in early 2013 at SUPRA retailers worldwide, and suprafootwear.com.

This shows that Tunechi is getting more and more into the fashion business, because we all know he has his own clothing line which is doing very well called TRUKFIT.

Are you looking forward to Wayne‘s own line of shoes with SUPRA ❓
