"You killed it" - Lil Wayne loves Eli Manning's rap skills, leaving Peyton disgusted
Lil Wayne joined Peyton and Eli Manning on ManningCast in the fourth quarter to talk about his beloved Green Bay Packers. The Packers were winning 24-12 when he joined and would see out the game to improve to 6-8 and remain in the hunt for a playoff spot. It was quite a jubilant appearance for the rapper, seeing his favorite team win.
However, we are still conflicted about what made Lil Wayne happier. Was it the Packers remaining alive in the postseason hunt? Or was it Eli Manning's attempt to rap that left both Peyton and Lil Wayne lost for words? Have a look for yourself to find out.
The video showed the former New York Giants quarterback trying his best to rap. At one point during the performance, both Peyton and Eli Manning could be seen shielding their eyes as Lil Wayne flashed a wide grin.
The lyrics went,
Homies in the studio, fresh off the set.
New York hip-hoppers, the latest threat.
Listen to our music, ladies and gents.
We're getting ready to kick it, here's 60 cents
It was quite the performance and he had filmed it for the New York Giants earlier. Despite the obvious embarrassment, Lil Wayne was seen grinning ear to ear. When Peyton asked for his feedback on his brother's performance, he first explained how he was surprised to see Eli Manning dressed like that. However, he was more thrilled by his performance and said,
"He [Eli] killed it."
To which Peyton replied what we were all thinking,
"No, he didn't."
Lil Wayne disappoints Peyton by bringing up Saints' Super Bowl victory as Eli Manning looks bashful
Lil Wayne was not kind to Peyton Manning today. While discussing his love for the Packers, the New Orleans native underscored how much his friends and family are Saints fans and how thrilled they were when Drew Brees and team won Super Bowl XLIV.
The problem with bringing that up, however, was that the Saints defeated the Indianapolis Colts in the final that year. The losing quarterback in that matchup was none other than the senior Manning on ManningCast today.
While Eli Manning and Lil Wayne seemed to hit it off instantly over their shared taste in rapping, Peyton seemed to bear the brunt of their banter. While Lil Wayne did make it clear that he was desperately trying to avoid that conversation, there is no doubt that it would have stung the Hall-of-Fame former Colts and Broncos quarterback.
