Lil Wayne in London…..life as a shortie shouldn’t be so rough
Posted by Miss Info under concerts , not good for hip hop , videos[40] Comments
Nigel from RealTalkNY sent me this video of Lil Wayne being harrassed and heckled at a show in London. Bottles are thrown before the show is canceled. What the hell? Why pay to get into the show if you’re gonna tear it up like that?
PS: Hopefully, my UK fam who listen to me on the Tim Westwood show will have some insight?
UPDATE:
-Hotshizzle sent over a link to the MovetheCrowd blog, which has photos and an account of the chaos.
-DJ Kitsune emailed the tip that Weezy has now cancelled all this week’s scheduled shows in Germany.

U.K is TRYING to prove their “hard”. What happened was they tried to jack his jewelry, which is worth quite a bit.
He stopped performing then they threw bottles at him. I bet yall expected him to run aftert he bottle hit him…sorry we not pussies state side. At the end of the day, yall lost money, he got paid for the concert and wil l continue to get paid. U.K lost
“Hardest” dude in U.K is f*ckin’ Prince Harry that was in Iraq LMAO tea sippin sobs

Hey Info, found what seems like a first hand account of what happened at Stratford Rex over at http://movingthecrowd.blogspot.com/2008/03/lil-wayne-live-in-london.html
‘yahh’, you’re Clueless like Stacey Dash mate, you’ve got no idea what London’s like. And Prince Harry was stationed in Afghanistan, not Iraq, but since when do facts matter eh?
Keep up the hotness Miss, my rss would be plain without you

what do N.O. and London have anything to do with this? There are plenty of ignant ppl to go around.

The word is “ignorant” not ignant meaning lacking knowledge.
The knowledge we have garnered is that obviously they were disrespectful.
Ummm the biblical term is “eye for an eye” if you diss one of our own then we will definitely diss you
Hence, Fcuk LO\onndon

Hey missinfo, news over in the UK is that Lil Wayne’s concert lacked security and and the audience started going crazy. Cursing at Lil Wayne and tryin to jack his chain.
Lil’ Wayne then removed his chains, and shouted ‘I want dat nigga’z head on the stage before I leave’
I will get more info once its been confirmed

Haha since when does bottle throwing from a limited number of people towards Lil Wayne mean that UK people are dissing Americans? “eye for an eye”…lol you such a fool brother! Are you sure this is a Wayne-only concert cos I remember Fifty being BADLY bottled at a Redding festival a few years back – but that’s because it wasn’t a hiphop crowd…50 handled his though, threw them bottles right back!!

March 17th, 2008 at 9:53 pm
@hotshizzle…thank you! but I still don’t get why the crowd turned on Wayne just because the club lacked security. was he late? or not energetic?
I appreciate the help

Hey Miss Info, Thanks
Apparently some dudes tried to charge the stage and get on there …for reasons still unknown. (For his chain?)
This prompted event security to act, which then stopped the show. Then some dude throws his plastic water bottle at weez :s
Damn shame since it is his first visit and the show was Fire up until this happened.
More details here for ya Miss Info:

@info:
What Kitsune said wasn’t a tip, it’s official.
The promoters (some guys that call themselves Truplayaz (put a .com behind that name to get to their website) have officially announced that the tour would be postponed to Summer.
As for the reasons, they said that Weezy did not have the time due to the oncoming Carter 3 Release.
You don’t need to think twice to realize that this is total BS. No one believes them anyway, rumors have it that they messed up the planning for the tour (reportedly they booked venues that were too small and were not able to get enough people to buy a ticket in advance (price was about 50 Euros)).
Hope to clear some stuff up with that, greez from Germany.

I know someone that was there and apparently he was mad late and pulled some amy whinehouse ish haha.
What does he expect?
People think they can come here and show no respect, turn up late, leave early, and still get there cheque. Just dont bother next time.
Just like Ja and Yung Joc with there chains, Cube with his chain, Akons tour bus that was shot at, and Game got robbed. Im not saying that was called for. But most of the time when big names come here I dont bother any more, cause I cant even remember how many gigs I been to and they have just half assed it.

AM FROM THE UK AND WAS AT THE WEEZY CONCERT AND HAVE TO SAY WEEZY DID NOTHING WRONG BUT TRIED TO GIVE A LONG GOOD CONCERT. IF I WAS WEEZY I WILL SACK MY MANAGER FOR BRINGING ME TO THE WORSE VENUE IN THE UK (JARULE HAD HIS CHAIN POPPED IN THER). THERES THESE SO CALLED GRIME ARTISTES WHO FEEL THE AMERICAN RAPPERS ARE STEALING THEIR FANS. LIL WAYNE WAS DOING WELL DEN DEY JUMPED ON STAGE. WEEZY LEFT HE CAME BK AND A BOTTLE WAS THROWN AT HIM, IT WAS RIGHT FOR HIM TO LEAVE. HE LEFT AT THE RIGHT TIME BECAUSE THERE WAS A 50 MAN STRONG CROWD WHICH WAS ABOUT TO FUCK HIS LIFE UP TRUST ME I CUD SEE FROM WER I WAS. ALL I CAN SAY THIS WUD OF HAPPENED TO ANY OTHER AMERICAN RAP ARTISTE. AND I FINK THIS IS GON B HAPPENING ANY TIME SOME1 CUMS TRY TO PERFORM HERE. EVEN WESTWOOD TRYS HELP THESE GRIME ARTISTES BUT THEY STILL ABUSE HIM. THE FACT IS AM A DJ AND IF I PLAYED GRIME I WILL B A RUBBISH DJ BCOS GRIME IS RUBBISH. A GOOD WAY OF SOLVING THIS BEEF BETWEEN THE UK AND AMERICA IS PUTTING GRIME ARTISTES IN THEIR VIDEOS, MAKEING TUNES WIV DEM. CUS RITE NOW D ONLY TWO ARTISTES DAT CUD CUM HERE RIGHT NOW IS STYLES P AND KEITH MURRAY WHO HAVE MADE TUNES AND VIDEOS WITH THESE ARTISTES. THE THING IS THE UK HAS CHANGED AND ANY RAP ARTISTE CANT JUST CUM HERE NOMORE AND PERFORM UNLESS HIS ROLLING WITH PRESIDENT TYPE SECURITY. OH YEH AND DEY JUS DIDNT WANNA TEK HIS CHAIN BUT FUCK HIM UP AND PUT A WORD OUT TO THE OTHER RAPPERS STATESIDE. LLOYD BANKS WAS MEANT TO PERFOM DER LAST YER BUT WAS SO SCARED TO CUM OUT HIS LIMMO WEN HE SAW HOW SCARY WE LOOKED THRU HIS TINTS AND DROVE OFF SO BIG UP LIL WAYNE FOR AT LEAST CUMMIN IN TO THE VENUE.

I was at the show, da gooniez wanted his chain(he wasn’t even wearing a big one) they failed gettin it. That put weezy in a bad mood, he was jus standin there not spittin while the beat was playinn next minute sum1 through summit at him an hit his chest. Weezy then stated “yall crowd better fuck him up….he jus fucked the show up” dropped the mic an started walkin off, so people threw bottles in his head a nice 2litre 1 hit him lol…..how u gunna cancel when people paid…..anyway he apparently then came back(I left by this point, thinkin he gone)done couple songs then gun got buss an his bodyguard took him out.
Hope this helps info.

Firstly the venue was wrong Stratford Rex and the word trouble can be put together…I once went to a L.O.X show there and it was almost the same thing except the L.O.X have Sheek and he is a big MF so no one was trying to throw nothin at him, lol…
Its funny over here in London we support U.S rappeers more than our own but when they come here we ruin the shows…I went to The Nas show in Brixton and the same thing gun shots in the crown show stopped and I didn’t get my money back now I jus say never go again…Damn shame.

I was at da concert nd even afta all dat hype it wus a memorable nite.
All in all it wus a great nite I fink, I paid To see him nd dat I did, hes a great performer. That nite he broke 3mics though lol.
He came out 2party like a rockstar nd den afta dat did da tune most people were waiting for which was his bit on rain on dem hoes song den he went in2 money on my mind (my opinion was da best performance for da whole nite) cant remember wat else he performed because I was so memorised at lil wayne lol about 2songs aftawards a guy got on the stage nd he got escorted lil wayne took off all his chains evryfin includin his top (ummm 2my delight) nd wus lookin as if he wanted to fite sum1 e looked very angry afta a while he stopped performin nd wus jus walkin around nd i guess it got a cuple fans mad ( i didnt mind watchin his fine self walk around lol) nd a lookalike Bong was thrown rite at him which got him mad nd left den a big splash of water wus added nd dat him got so angry dat his bodyguard had 2stop him from cumin in2 da crowd. I got very angry but i had a lil wayne instinct that he wud b bak so whilst evry1 wus startin a riot nd leavin, nd finkin bowt dere money i manouvered 2da front nd waited bowt 20mins later all i herd was “Sssh The Fireman Coming” and he came back on and performed, he seemed like he was ova da event dat jus happened because he was back to bein enthustiastic nd bein da great performer he is, he also done the Soldja boy dance for us nd his dance called da Wan. He then performed “I feel like dying, You aint know, Championship, Hit Em nd A couple others he was reali getting into it when his bodyguard came nd led him away halfway through him rapping!
I love u lil wayne and i hope u come back because I love uuuuu xx
There was no need for da throwing of stuff but i guess no one has patience like me so u knoe.
