The longstanding working relationship between Skip Bayless and Lil Wayne dates back even before Stephen A. Smith joined First Take.
Lil Wayne first appeared on ESPN’s popular morning debate show in 2012, surprising his good friend Skip Bayless while on tour.
In the years that followed, Lil Wayne made multiple appearances on First Take, until Skip Bayless moved to FS1 in the Fall of 2016.
Notably, Lil Wayne played a crucial role in the transition of morning sports debate shows by writing and performing the theme song for “Skip and Shannon: Undisputed,” a track that Skip often praises as one of Lil Wayne’s greatest hits.
