Today for #ThrowbackThursday, you can watch a funny video involving Lil Wayne and Drake that was filmed during the 2012 NBA All-Star Game at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida back on February 26th, 2012.

The clip shows Weezy taking one of his Adidas JS Wings 2.0 “Stars & Stripes” sneakers off and holding it up in the air while the United States of America’s national anthem is being sung, “The Star-Spangled Banner“.

You can also see Tunechi taking out a USA handkerchief and waving it around over Drizzy Drake (who is obviously Canadian), and on top of his head. Check out the hilarious video and Drizzy‘s reaction after the jump below for #TBT!

We first saw a preview yesterday, and now here is Lil Wayne‘s full interview with Linsey Davis for ABC‘s Nightline show, which you can check out after the jump below.

During their conversation, Weezy spoke on people calling his music “vulgar” and “degrading”, if he would have a problem with someone calling his daughter Reginae a “bitch” or a “hoe”, his relationship with weed, skateboarding, what he learned from his time locked up at Rikers Island in 2010, and more.

At the end of the interview when Tunechi was asked about the Black Lives Matter movement, he explained why he doesn’t feel connected to it and then pulled out his red flag to say he is a gang banger and he feels connected to that. Tune also ended the conversation angrily by saying “I ain’t no fucking politician”!

Music video director Eif Rivera recently chatted with Myspace about working with Lil Wayne on his “God Bless Amerika” music video and Fat Joe’s “Yellow Tape” music video, which also featured Wayne, A$AP Rocky, and French Montana.

Eif mentioned that they had to shoot the “Yellow Tape” visual on Weezy‘s schedule, because out of everyone his schedule is the craziest, and also talked about how they had to get permission from the people on the streets of New Orleans to shoot the “God Bless Amerika” visual, as well as the flag situation.

Read what Rivera said about working with Tune on these two music videos below!

In the video above, you can watch some more behind the scenes footage from Lil Wayne‘s “God Bless Amerika” video shoot, which took place in his hometown Hollygrove, New Orleans on June 15th.

Weezy F Baby can be seen shooting his parts for the Eif Rivera-directed music video in front of an American flag before leaving with his crew – Marley G, Marisa Flores, Troy Bless, T@, and Dev. At the end of the clip, TRUKFIT’s official skater YoYo can also be seen teaching Kidd Kidd how to skateboard.

A few days ago, a clip of Lil Wayne shooting his parts for his “God Bless Amerika” music video surfaced online. This clip caused a lot of controversy, because if you have no idea what Weezy was doing in the clip, then you might think he was walking on the flag of the United States of America, which is of course against the law under the United States Flag Code.

After this clip was posted online, I have never seen and been sent so many messages and death threats about Tune since I started LilWayneHQ up 5 years ago. It was so clear to me that Wayne was shooting a scene for his “God Bless Amerika” video and when the beat dropped, the flag also drops to the ground and his hood is all standing behind him. It was not like he was walking on the flag for the music video and I am sure the camera angle will not be including below the bottom legs in the music video.

However, the main issue in my opinion is those gossip websites that just post headlines about Tunechi dancing on the United States of America flag to bring hits and traffic to their site. Then you get the dumb idiots who just read the title of the article and then they go act tough behind a computer without even watching the video first!
