2 years ago, Lil Wayne announced in an interview that he was working on his debut skateboarding video part, and today it has finally been released with his Sqvad Up skaters.

In the 7-minute clip, which you can check out below, we can see Weezy show off his skating tricks at the skate park on top of his house roof, at the TRUKSTOP, in the streets, and at other various skate parks across the country.

A new Tunechi song can also be heard being played during the part that is called “Hercules“. I’m not sure how old the track is, but there are a lot of lines recycled from Tune‘s “No Motive” record off DJ Khaled’s Suffering From Success album from back in 2013!

What are your thoughts on the new Wayne song and his skateboarding skills?

During their conversation, Weezy discussed everything about his “Sqvad Up” game, his skate team, the name “Sqvad Up”, if he asked his old homies about using the “Sqad Up” name, E3, coming out with a part 2 and a part 3 of his mobile app, his favorite trick to do in skateboarding, and more.

Tunechi also told a disgusting story involving Andre Colbert and his Young Money artist Baby E. You can watch the full interview in a video after the jump below!

After first getting word about his new business venture a few days ago, Lil Wayne‘s “Sqvad Up” mobile game that was developed by mobile/technology company UTILITY has now been released and is available to buy from Google Play and the iTunes App Store.

The app/game, which is free, includes music from New Orleans artist Nesby Phips and is set in Tunechi‘s hometown Hollygrove. However, an update will soon include the cities of the other places that Tune lives in – Miami and Los Angeles.

Professional skaters Tyreek Morrison, Evan Hernandez, Yosef “YoYo” Ratleff, Andre Colbert, Jereme Knibbs, and Edgar Benitez are all unlockable characters. The goal of the game is to skate and fly on drones through Hollygrove while collecting money, but making sure to avoid birds and other obstacles/hazards.
