Hip Hop Entertainment News: Lil Wayne Walks Off Stage During Tour With Blink-182
During a concert Thursday, Lil Wayne ended his performance after just 20 minutes and walked off stage while touring with pop-punk band Blink-182.
“Hold on. I just want the people to know — if you’re wondering, please forgive me,” the 36-year-old rapper said in a video filmed by an audience member. “But I am so not used to performing to a crowd and there’s not too many — you know … that’s not my swag. I’m not sure how long I’m going to be able to do this tour but make some noise for Blink-182 for including me anyway.”
“This might be my last night though, let’s go,” he added.
I think Lil Wayne just quit the Blink 182 tour. (Yes, that’s the same show)
Played for like 20 mins

Concert-goers were left baffled by the rapper’s departure, and took to social media to voice their confusion and displeasure.
“Wow , @LilTunechi just said this maybe his last night in the Blink 182 tour. Cited the lack of rap fans/his fans,” one Twitter user posted on Thursday.
“@LilTunechi just dissed everyone saying this might have to be his last night on this tour Pretty Much because we aren’t good enough for him! Honey you are the odd ball out here, you decided to play between @NeckDeepUK and @blink182” another audience member tweeted.
“I think Lil Wayne just quit the Blink 182 tour. (Yes, that’s the same show) Played for like 20 mins,” tweeted WAMU 88.5 reporter Jordan Pascale.
Lil Wayne addressed the rumors Friday afternoon on Twitter, writing, “Yesterday was krazy! But I want all my fans to know I won’t be quitting this tour! I’m having too much fun with my bros blink-182. Bangor, ME See you tomorrow!”
