Lil Wayne is set to be involved “more than ever” in Skip Bayless’ Undisputed in lieu of Shannon Sharpe’s departure from the FS1 debate show earlier this month.
Bayless recounted his recent hangout with Weezy last weekend at the rapper’s San Fernando Valley mansion as the unlikeliest of friendships added another chapter to its story.

The famous sports journalist also hinted at Lil Wayne being part of Undisputed going forward during Thursday’s (June 29) episode of The Skip Bayless Show.
“Wayne will be involved more than ever in Undisputed going forward. So will Young Money. I love you, man. And I thank you for yet another very memorable Saturday,” he said.
Bayless also detailed how much of a fan Lil Wayne is of Undisputed and FS1 as a whole. “The connection here is my wife, Ernestine, and I are endlessly fascinated by Wayne’s gift for recording and performing,” he continued. “Just as I believe he is unquenchably intrigued by behind-the-scenes at Undisputed.
“Other than Ernestine, I don’t know anybody, any human, that watches more Undisputed, for that matter, more FS1 than Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. does. I’m pretty sure he never misses an Undisputed.”
Skip even posted a pair of photos alongside Wayne from the trip with his wife, Ernestine, to visit the Young Money CEO.
“Ernestine and I just got back from spending a sun-blessed LA Saturday afternoon at Lil Wayne’s,” Bayless captioned his post to Instagram. “4 hours of the best conversation 3 humans could hope to have – on music, sports and life. Deep thoughts punctuated by big laughs. Love you, man.”

Now it’s unclear what role Wayne will be taking on as Bayless is still yet to announce a full-time co-host sitting opposite himself at the Undisputed desk.
Although, the rap icon has filled in periodically for guest spots on the show to debate Skip and put his sports knowledge to the test.
