Report: NFL Sent Lil Wayne An Apology After Underwhelming Kendrick Lamar Show

The U.S. Sun has reported that the NFL has apologized to Lil Wayne after Kendrick Lamar's underwhelming Super Bowl halftime show.

It spoke to two "NFL Insiders" who admitted a mistake was made when Kendrick was selected over Wayne.

"A mistake was made and we regret the choice that was made," an NFL employee told The U.S. Sun.

"Lil Wayne should have been the first option, as he is from New Orleans and we know that there was a clear motivation for him and his side to do a unique show in his town."

A second NFL employee echoed that sentiment. 

"I mean, New Orleans is the city of Lil Wayne. He did a lot and it would have been fantastic to have him do the halftime show and show his love, and feel the love, from his hometown. The choice was clearly the wrong one, and now the goal is to not make the same mistake from now on."
