Hip-hop icons Lil Wayne and Trina have been around for more than 20 years. As rappers, they all carved out distinct identities and pathways for themselves that have acted as models for those who have followed in their footsteps. Around the turn of the century, the two both made their debuts in the business, and at one point, their friendship extended beyond just music.

Within Lil Wayne and Trina’s partnership

In 2005, Trina and Lil Wayne began dating, and a few months later, they got engaged. In 2014, Trina disclosed in an interview with VladTV that the relationship was intentionally kept under wraps.

She said, “It wasn’t really a big announcement.” “I’m not one for making announcements. Privacy is the best thing, in my opinion.

In 2006, Trina miscarried after fewer than a year of being engaged.

The cause of the split between Lil Wayne and Trina

But given their deep friendship before to becoming sexually connected, Trina started to wonder why they were getting married.

She remembered, “We were both just really young.” In our very early twenties, I remember thinking to myself, ‘OK, what are we doing?’ The entire Cash Money family and I were friends for years before to this, and I had the impression that he was genuinely one of my best friends. We would converse, laugh, and enjoy ourselves. Nothing about it was seductive or personal.

She acknowledged, “I never saw [the relationship] coming.” “I was aware of his outstanding character from the beginning. It was just one of those situations when I don’t want to let our friendship deteriorate.

Trina still has love for Lil Wayne

Trina reflected on her relationship with Lil Wayne in a 2017 interview with The Breakfast Club.

“Wayne is a very great person,” she said honestly. “Wayne never did anything wrong to me. The thing is, when I dated Wayne — which was so many years ago — we were just real young. Wayne was real young. I was real young. A part of it was, ‘I don’t even know what I’m doing, and I know you don’t know what you’re doing.’”

The two maintained a close friendship over the years as well as a working relationship. His passion for her career extended to the present day: when she asked him to record a feature for her 2019 album The One, there was no hesitation.

“I just hit him and said, ‘I want you to get on this record [‘Situation’],’ and that was it,” she said. “He sent the record back on my birthday, which was crazy.”
