When Kendrick Lamar announced he was playing Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, many said Lil Wayne should've gotten the gig since he's a native of the city.
Then when Kendrick played the halftime show last Sunday, people said it was proof that Wayne should've been selected because they didn't like Kendrick's performance.
But a lot of that talk changed after Wayne performed at SNL50 last night, because a good number of people said he did a horrible job.
This Lil Wayne performance is a perfect example of why he would have been a terrible Superbowl Halftime choice. #SNL50

Wayne's daughter Reginae Carter eventually responded to the comments, and she let people have it.
"Yall are some d riders !" wrote Reginae on Instagram. "My dad been having fun performing for years ! He is truly himself when he hit the stage . Go play with yall mf kids .. he collected a check after this .. what yall get for hating? Not a damn thing!"
What do you think about Wayne's SNL50 performance?
