Lil Wayne's Unreleased ‘Tha Carter VI' Song With U2's Bono Soundtracks NBA Finals Promo
ESPN is giving Lil Wayne fans a sneak peek at his The Carter VI album mere hours before it arrives. Unreleased track 'The Days' featuring Bono has been used in a promo ad for game one of the NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday (June 5). More from Billboard Monkees' Micky Dolenz Reveals He Lost Out on 'Happy Days' Fonzie Role to Henry Winkler: 'I Almost Got It' Tiësto & Sexyy Red Get Slinky on New Collab 'OMG!': Stream It Now Lorde Says This NSFW 'Virgin' Song 'Destroys' Her: 'I Can't Even Really Listen to It' 'I pledge allegiance to what I believe in/ Live to fight another day,' he raps. 'I ain't getting younger, but I'm getting better/ No time to waste that's another man's treasure/ They say every dog has hit day.' The U2 frontman then takes the baton to handle chorus duties. 'These are the days,' Bono sings. Without a single ahead of the album, 'The Days' snippet is the first taste fans got of C6, and the partnership makes sense with Lil Wayne being an avid hoops fan. 'Basketball's been in my blood since day one, so to team up with ESPN less than 24 hours before the drop of Tha Carter VI for the NBA Finals is an incredible honor,' Wayne said in a statement. 'My music and the NBA are vibin' on the same frequency because it's perfect timing for fans to hear Tha Carter VI on the game's grandest stage.' ESPN has been using numerous Wayne tracks to soundtrack NBA Playoffs ads this season, including 'I Am Not a Human Being,' 'Uproar' and the 'Glory (Remix).' 'Lil Wayne brings the energy, edge and emotion that define the NBA Finals,' Curtis Friends, vice president of sports marketing at ESPN, said in a statement. 'Integrating his music into our NBA Playoffs coverage has been a strategic brand flex — amplifying our storytelling and connecting with fans as we showcase today's rising stars on the league's biggest stage.' Game one of the NBA Finals tips off at 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC inside OKC's Paycom Center as the Pacers and Thunder gear up for a hard-fought series. After the contest, look for Weezy's Tha Carter VI to hit streaming services at midnight ET on Friday (June 6). Get a taste of 'The Days' with the NBA Finals teaser below.

Here's What Fans Think of SiR Claiming Drake Had His 2024 Toronto Show Canceled
Top Dawg Entertainment singer SiR had his 2024 tour stop in Toronto canceled, and he made his return north of the border for a show on Wednesday (June 4). During his performance, SiR placed the blame for his original cancellation on Drake. In a clip from the performance, SiR says that he was 'caught in the middle of a beef I ain't have s–t to do with,' referencing the ongoing feud between the Toronto rapper and Kendrick Lamar. However, SiR quickly walked back the claims and said it was the venue — which is co-owned by Drizzy — that cancelled his show.

I ain't taking no motherf—ing chance you gon' get your ass beat,'' he says in the clip. Billboard has reached out to Drake's team for comment. The clip from Wednesday's concert went viral on social media as fans had plenty to say about SiR's claims, who himself wondered, 'Why is this news?' Plenty of OVO fans were riled up at SiR's comments and hopped into his replies on X. 'It's news because you said Drake name,' one person said. Another added: 'Why you mentioning Drake when he has no clue who you are?' At the time of the 2024 show, SiR blamed the venue in a statement to fans on X. 'So sorry to my Toronto fans. The show has been canceled. We're working on rescheduling for a later date,' he wrote, per VIBE. 'For those wondering, we sold that show out. It was canceled by the venue. Not sure why. My apologies again to those that came just to see me.' SiR wasn't the only TDE-affiliate to have issues touring in Canada, as ScHoolboy Q also had a show scrapped in Toronto last summer. 'THey just canceled my sHow in TORONTO,' he said at the time. 'CANADIAN POLICE DONT WANT NOBODY FROM TDE PERFORMING.'
