Louisiana rapper Lil Wayne wasn’t just doing it to be freed. Allegations that he only befriended and supported Donald Trump in order to get pardon have been shut down by his lawyer in a new interview.
Lil Wayne Connected With Trump
Renowned celebrity lawyer Bradford Cohen says the two just bonded. He revealed Trump and Weezy F. Baby actually formed a relationship and that they connected over their entertainment industry backgrounds, also saying Tunechi liked the thought of Trump’s Platinum Plan.
“It never hurts that someone gets a full understanding of an individual when they’re just looking at a piece of paper. In hindsight, I guess it worked out. I think they had a very strong connection. He’s in the entertainment world. He’s got a style that’s similar in terms of the way that he carries himself, and a lot of rappers and people in the industry relate to that.”
