Lil Wayne Walks Off Stage After 30 Minutes at LA Show Due to Low Energy Crowd: 'We Work Way Too Hard'
Fans expressed their disappointment with the rapper on social media after the show
Per HipHopDX, Lil Wayne, 40, took the stage over an hour late. Once he was on, he performed for half an hour and brought out surprise guest 2 Chainz before taking a break and giving the stage over to his Young Money artists Lil Twist, Yaj Kader and Allan Cubas.
The crowd was reportedly not happy with Wayne's exit from the stage. Before Cubas could perform his second song, Wayne returned to the stage and told Cubas not to sing anymore.
"We appreciate it, but we ain't about to be bending over backwards for these folks. We work too hard for this s—. We work way too hard," the "How to Love" rapper told Cubas, per a video shared by an attendee on Twitter.
He then turned to the crowd and said, "This my motherf-----' artist Allan, that was Twist, that was Yaj. We are Young Money. We appreciate y'all time."
The rapper then put down the microphone and walked away. The crowd stuck around for a couple of minutes before the house lights went up.
Per the outlet, the show was sold out and Wayne initially sold $15 livestreams — though the livestream was canceled right before the show.
On Twitter, fans who attended the concert expressed their disappointment toward the rapper.
One social media user wrote, "I will never go to another Lil Wayne concert again after he arrived 3.5 hours late then performed for 30 had intermission put his new artist to perform then came out and canceled the rest of the concert because the crowd wasn't hype enough for his new artist."
