If there is one thing we know about the rap, there is always egos at stake. And this time, the "beef» It's not between rappers in a song, but on the biggest sporting stage in the world: the Super Bowl.

And it is that the Super Bowl This year it is celebrated in New Orleans, his hometown, which makes the choice of an artist from Los Angeles as K. Dot It seemed to him to be little less than disrespectful.
Wayne stands up and puts on his own show

Can Wayne outshine Kendrick?
