The reason Lil Wayne never performed live at Mike Tyson’s comeback fight against Roy Jones Jr. on November 28th was due to an “unrelated 3rd party”.

In a statement co-issued from Triller and Weezy, there was a 3rd party who tried to involve themselves in the production process between the video-making/social-networking service and the Young Money CEO:

“Unfortunately there was an unrelated 3rd party who attempted to insert themselves in the production process between Triller and Lil Wayne the night before the event and the morning of and it unfortunately caused enough of an issue that Wayne couldn’t perform.”

However, Tunechi says he “was truly disappointed he was precluded from performing by the 3rd party” and promises to perform live at “Triller’s next fight card.”

2 Chainz was a recent guest on the 85 South Show podcast where he chopped it up with DC Young Fly, Karlous Miller and Chico Bean.

While on the show to promote his new So Help Me God album, Chainz spoke at the 35:45 mark about one of his very first singles with Playaz Circle, which was “Duffle Bag Boy” featuring Lil Wayne.

Tity Boi explained how he first met Weezy and Birdman, being thankful to Tunechi for giving him the “Duffle Bag Boy” chorus for free as it changed his life, how Tune used to perform all of the song on tour, and much more. Check out the full interview below!

That’s the greatest rapper alive, matter of fact, one of the greatest to ever did it, don’t ever play yourself, don’t ever play yourself. Ayo Wayne, you know we all waiting for that C5, that Carter V, and I know it’s more fire, more classics, you know what I’m saying?

One of the first things you usually do when you join a new football/soccer team to get introduced to your new teammates is sing or rap your favorite song.
