The NFL 'Immediately' sent an apologetic letter to Lil Wayne after he announced last year that Kendrick Lamar had been chosen to perform the Super Bowl -Halftime show.
Lil Wayne was denied the chance to head this year's half -time show in New Orleans, a movement that caused indignation in view of his famous association with the Big Easy – where he was born and raised.
And to add the controversy, the performance of Kendrick in the Superdome was heavily criticized by viewers who stayed under the neighborhood on Sunday evening.
The not -like American rapper, who included his famous diss track about bitter rival Drake, was closed because he had set up 'the worst half -time show ever' because fans announced their displeasure.
Prior to Sunday's show, sports commentator Skip Bayless expressed his anger that Lil Wayne was split off for the performance of New Orleans, while claiming that the NFL made an apology to him in September after he had offered it to Kendrick.
Bayless, who is good friends with Lil Wayne, said on his YouTube show: 'The NFL immediately sent Wayne an apologetic letter. From no one in particular, only from the competition on NFL letterhead.

Fans hit Kendrick Lamar's rest time show on Sunday evening as 'The sausage in history'
'A letter that thanked him for his years of supporting the competition, not only the packers, his favorite team, but supporting and promoting the NFL, in general that he has.
'I mean, he appears weekly performances on the NFL's Sunday pregame show,' NFL Gameday Morning 'on the NFL network. But he will not play the half -time show of Sunday, and he will definitely not watch a second of Sunday's rest time show.
“He will watch the game, just not the rest time show. Not one second. '
Bayless also revealed that the snub had a devastating effect on Lil Wayne, who had difficulty dealing with the setback.
“When the news broke for the first time, the Wayne hit hard,” the 73-year-old continued. “He didn't feel like doing a lot of everything for different long days and nights. He is better now. '
Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter JR, was recently opened about the disappointment because he was not chosen to perform in a super bowl in his beloved New Orleans.
“I blame myself that I am not mentally prepared for a disappointment and for simply automatically mentally placing in that position,” he said on an Instagram -Livestream.
“I thought there was nothing better than that place, that stage, that platform, in my city. So it hurts, it hurt a lot. '
Kendrick, who, earlier this month, still trembling five Grammy's, did not seem to wear that momentum on Sunday evening in his performance in New Orleans.
The 37-year-old started on top of a car in the super dome before he pointed an excavation on archenemy Drake, who recently suggested the record label of him and Lamar, Universal Music Group, about the controversial not as US diss Song, in which he is referred to as one 'certified pedophile'.
Despite the lawsuit, Kendrick still carried out the song, but removed the word 'pedofile' from his lyrics.
He referred to the legal battle with Drake about the insult by telling the audience in Louisiana: “I want to perform their favorite song, but you know they like to sue.”
Kendrick couldn't resist supplying two brutal jibes about the Canadian artist, including 'say Drake, I hear you like' and 'try to make an agreement and it is probably a minor'.
He also wore a large silver chain pendant with a small letter 'A', which apparently was a different reference to the 'a minor' text in his controversial diss track.
