A somber Lil Wayne took to social media early Friday morning to share that he is “broken” over not having the opportunity to perform the Super Bowl Halftime Show in New Orleans.

The rapper, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., admitted that he believed in his heart that he would be performing and it “hurt a whole lot.”

I blame myself for not being mentally prepared for a let down. And for just automatically mentally putting myself in that position like somebody told me that my position. So I blame myself for that.

But, I thought that was nothing better than that spot on that stage and that platform in my city. So, it hurt. It hurt a whole lot.

Wayne added, “It broke me and I’m just trying to put myself back together.”

He also expressed his gratitude to everyone who stood 10 toes down on his behalf those who lifted him up when he felt like he “wasn’t s**t.”

Watch the below.
