Lil Wayne DROPPED by Pepsi/Mountain Dew

[Batter Up]

Sensible decision by the good folks at Pepsi

 

[Easy-E]

I love how super-gangsta' Weezy and Rause are, on record, but; these companies quick to humble 'em

Both apologies and still got deveours

That said; it's hypocritical; Wayne was a vagina eatin', Red flaggin', pill poppin', purple drankin' rapper before this and they still signed 'em

Same with Ross

They didn't have a problem then, why now?

Guess that's why we gotta sit through the Black Eyed Peas during the playoffs, cuz rappers are held to goofy standards

 

[jaydolf spitler]

Pepsi with the back to back L's lol

 

[B86]

The fukk are they expecting? Had they listened to his music at all before signing the deal?

Right! So nobody at Pepsi ever heard a wayne song before the endorsement? How about they blame themselves. And as much as I can't fukk with Waynes music no more, it's funny how people get on here laughing and shyt like dude gonna be broke. That nikka still got millions of dollars more than everybody on this board

Same response that I had to the Rick Ross shyt...if all it takes is some random protest over people being offended over lyrics, why endorse the rappers in the first place? These dudes have entire catalogs worth of music that random groups can catch feelings over at any moment...it's not like the artists are tricking them into buying into an image then going all the way left...Pepsi especially, they already folded and dropped Luda over a decade ago because Bill O'Reilly started crying bout his lyrics...why keep doing this ?

hmmmm it seems like a white owned corporation dropped this clown for the lack of respect he showed to his own peoples' struggles

Hopefully this is the beginning of the end to black celebrity whoring and convenient amnesia of their people's history in order to get more white support.....who is next?

bu bu he just trolling

With Bill, he is really just trolling gangsta rap because that's his passion LOL.

As far as the Till family, I understand and respect what they are doing but I feel that it's not that they care about the lyrics as a whole, only that someone outside of that genre was brought into it. Both examples (Wayne and Ross) show that it is okay for black men to talk about other black men and talk about murder and death and drug trafficking but when you talk about rape culture (Wayne's lyric also loosely references rough sex) or disrespect someone outside of that gangsta lifestyle (Emmitt Till, innocent woman meeting Ross, etc) then they have an issue. However, as long as it is only being used to bring down people involved in that life, they have no issue with corporations using their name, likeness and image to peddle their high fructose corn syrup or overpriced shoes to the sheep. And now that those two learned a lesson, all other rappers will definitely start watching what they write.

@kingstl you support a dude who disrespecting one of the pioneers (contributor) to the civil rights movement

Im not saying it's right but I'll never be glad to see a brother lose an endorsement deal. I'm just not a negative person like that.

It was a rap lyric, yall acting like dude is a concious rapper. We talking about Wayne here, they (Pepsi) knew his lyrics way before this

I mean come on, he's a gun toting, self admitted drug using, felon...none of that stopped them from signing his checks

 

[nairdas]

First off I am ashamed that im so much a fan of wayne that im legit pissed off about this, but with that being said this is bullshyt. I feel like it was unnecessary for the till family to even say anything about mountain dew. Like why do that?

You're right, but half these dudes don't have jobs and couldn't calculate interest if you gave them the formula for it

Wayne is better off marketing "Monster Energy drink" or "Redbull" since he's into skateboarding.

Wayne off redbulls

 

[LucaBrasi]

You know what this will do?

It will only empower activists and fuel their desire to destroy careers!!

but black folks in and out of entertainment knows about the comfort of celebrating black ignorance while portraying white greatness by the media. That lesson has been taught and is now second nature to black folks. Thus why black entertainers know what to say, who to talk about, and what message to support if they want white support
