Lil Wayne is dealing with backlash on social media for relying on a teleprompter to remember his lyrics during his performance with Drake on the It’s All A Blur - Big As The What? tour. In a viral clip from the show, one fan on Twitter asked if anyone had ever seen something similar. Many of his fans brought up the massive catalog Wayne has put out over the years as an excuse.
"Lil Wayne has admitted that he's dropped so many verses that he can't remember everything he's spit before," one fan wrote back. Another added: "Lil Wayne also said in an interview he doesn’t write his own lyrics down. He goes in the studio and freestyles everything." The original poster clarified that they meant no disrespect. "Also I love Lil Wayne, I’m one of the lucky ones who got to grow up and see him in his prime. What a time it was to be alive for real," they wrote.
