Is Lil Wayne mad that LeBron James doesn’t want to be besties?

Still confused as to why Lil Wayne seems to have waged all out war on the Miami Heat? Me too. Luckily for us, Hip-Hop 365 has a source who provides a theory to consider. Lil Wayne is allegedly upset because LeBron doesn’t want to be his friend? That’s just the tip of the iceberg:

According to a member of LeBron’s inner-circle who spoke on the condition of anonymity, Lil Wayne over the years has continuously made efforts into building a relationship with LeBron, similar to what the MVP shares with Jay Z.

And this has included invites for concert appearances, birthday parties and video sessions, but LeBron through the years has respectfully declined. “LeBron is extremely busy, he respects Lil Wayne and his peers in the entertainment industry, but he just doesn’t like to be bothered like that” says the source.

A lot of it also stems from jealousy, no longer is Lil Wayne the top draw at events in Miami. Usually, Lil Wayne holds top billing at Liv, not that night, as LeBron and his entourage of 12 entered the party, all eyes shifted away from the stage Lil Wayne was performing on and towards the 3-time league MVP and his crew.

“It’s an unhealthy obsession” says the source, but he reiterates that LeBron does respect the Young Money rapper and has no ill-will towards him, but he’s not going to bend over backwards to appease him.

Is Wayne really mad because Lebron doesn’t want to be besties? Wayne team hops, find another superstar to link up with. You bring your value down acting like scorned ex-girlfriend. I thought he said he’d be ok as long as his “B***hes love him.” I bet they would love to hang out and go to the skatepark. Maybe he should go be James Harden’s BFF.

LeBron posted this message on Instagram. Not directed at anyone in particular but if the skinny jeans fit…
