Lil Wayne & Future Join Saturday Night Live Cast For Funny Skit About Respect & Consent
Article By: Ashia Skye
This weekend, Lil Wayne was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live. To viewer’s surprise, Weezy brought a few special guests with him
In addition to performing breakout tracks “Can’t Be Broken” with Halsey and “Uproar” with Swizz Beatz, Wayne also performed in a skit about consent called “Permission.”
During the skit, fictional rap duo, the “Booty Kings” (Chris Redd and Kenan Thompson) are out in the club looking for single women. The premise is that they will only proceed to try and court the woman if they have her consent. “I’m on a mission for that ass, but first I need permission,” they rap.
While the “Booty Kings”continue to look for willing women, special guest Future appears, and donates money into a collection jar for the Women’s Rights Fund. Next he begins talking about respect and gaining consent from women. Then finally, Wayne comes in and spits a few bars about the ladies.
“Respect the ladies so I treat ya like an equal,” he raps. “Got me starin’ at that booty like an eagle, yeah I see you!” Check out the funny “Permission” skit below.
