This rapper takes smoking weed very seriously but that does not mean he tolerates a crowd who puts the green stuff over his music.
Lil Wayne threw a not so little tantrum in the middle of his performance at the High Times Cannabis Concentrates Cup Show in San Bernardino, California, on Saturday.
The 33-year-old hip hop star was on stage just a few minutes – and less than one blunt in – before he became enraged and stormed off stage.
Mic drop: Lil Wayne threw a not so little tantrum in the middle of his performance at the High Times Cannabis Concentrates Cup Show in San Bernardino, California, on Saturday
The Lollipop rapper literally did a mic drop after declaring he would never return to the event.
Everything seemed fine at first, with the headliner act walking out on stage at 9.30pm and even sparking a blunt much to the excitement of the marijuana enthusiasts that were in the audience. The star followed a set from B.o.B. and was three songs in when, from fan videos posted on Instagram, he became angry.
In one video posted by Instagram user @skeeskeez, Wayne finishes his song and immediately stares into the wings of the stage.
Angrily the pint sized hip hop legend said: ‘Don’t you ever call me to do this s**t again. Ever.’
Not done yet, he continued: ‘Don’t you, ever, ever, ever, ask me to do this s**t again.’
It was not possible to see who the How To Love rapper was focused on, but numerous social media users said the rapper was not pleased with the level of energy the crowd was giving him. An attendee told a fan site dedicated to the rapper, Lil Wayne HQ, Wayne said: ‘You guys are too mellow, I’m from the south we turn up there.’
Many in the crowd had been in there for hours and were hot, bothered and no doubt a little stoned.
But Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. was having none of it and after rapping a verse from another song threw in the towel or in his case, threw in the microphone. Farewelling fans after performing for just ten minutes instead of an hour, the star said started to explain himself and then stopped.
‘I would like to thank you for your time. I don’t know what’s… Appreciate it.’
Organizers for the event were left as shocked as fans, issuing a statement to DailyMail.com saying they too are trying to get a full explanation of the rapper.
A representative said: ‘High Times works tirelessly to produce professional events that are entertaining, educational and fun for the thousands of marijuana and music enthusiasts who attend our Cannabis Cups. ‘High Times puts on nearly a dozen successful events a year all over the country. We have no idea why, after a stellar performance by B.o.B, Lil Wayne suddenly ended his performance after just four songs when he was contractually committed to performing for an hour for the fans.
‘We are truly baffled by why Lil Wayne would do this in front of thousands of Cannabis Cup attendees – in total disregard for his fans – and are awaiting an explanation from his team.’
For his part Lil Wayne had seemed excited to be performing posting a video a week ahead of the event to encourage fans to come along.
