Other guests at the celebration include Wayne's longtime friend, Skip Bayless.

"Just returned from Lil Wayne’s 40th birthday party,” Skip wrote on Twitter afterward. “Had to leave early because have to be up in 4 hours. But … what a night. Love you, man. Happy40!!!”

The attendance came as a surprise considering the two recently got into a heated exchange during an episode of Skip and Shannon: Undisputed regarding the Los Angeles Lakers and the signing of Patrick Beverly.

While not in attendance, NBA YoungBoy sent a clip to Wayne, which was played at the event, wishing him a happy birthday.

“Whaddup, n***a? It’s your son,” YoungBoy said in the video as the room laughs. “Make sure you enjoy yourself, bruh.”
