Lane Kiffin, officially balla thanks to Lil Wayne

October 29th, 2009 |

Lane Kiffin’s main goal this year with the Vols was to get the team back in the headlines. With his series of outbursts against SEC coaches and officials, Lane is giving Steve Spurrier a run for his money in the “Mouth of the South” contest.

But now it’s just gone platinum. Spurrier can’t match this!

Rapper Lil Wayne has made Lane Kiffin a star[and a fan of his music] by referencing the coach’s knack for loose lips in a new single from Wayne’s latest album.

*bump*

In Lil’s newest track, Banned From TV, the Southern rapper includes this line, “Smoke weed, talk s— like Lane Kiffin.”

Now Lane Kiffin has acknowledged the endorsement via Twitter, tweeting today, “looking forward to another great practice today and a huge game Saturday … also a huge shout-out to Lil Wayne for boosting our street cred!”

Tweet This, Bitches!

The video is below and Vol fans will find the line about 1:10 into the song. Word. And for those not familiar with Lil Wayne’s music, feel free to turn up the speakers in the office and blast this single as loud as possible.* Everyone in the office will love it!
