The new LeBron James Beats ad features Lil Wayne who can’t fall asleep because there’s a party playing his music. While celebrity commercials usually don’t gift us with particularly good acting performances, Lil Wayne paves his way to Hollywood with this one. See it yourself.
LeBron James Beats ad is an ode to loud partying
If you’re going to have a party, have a loud one. Basically, that’s what the new LeBron James Beats ad is all about. And the loudness of the brand-new speaker is the primary reason why the whole apartment block can’t sleep. The five-time Grammy Awards-winner Lil Wayne is among the people who are having a problem with noisy neighbors.
The famous hip-hop artist is just trying to relax in his bed. But he can’t, the Beats speaker is just too loud. The problem, though, is that the song breaking the peace is his song. LeBron James wisely put the “A Milli” banger to keep his party going.
We see Lil Wayne’s struggle and hear some nicely delivered one-liners like “It’s not me” addressed to the neighbors asking him to turn the volume down and killer “Decent people are trying to sleep” addressed to LeBron James.
Finally, the rapper can’t stand it anymore and goes to the party. We see a surprisingly well-performed exchange between Lil Wayne and the Los Angeles Lakers basketball player that ends things on a peaceful note. LeBron repeatedly calls the hip-hop artist “Little Wayne” and two celebrities agree that Lil Wayne’s songs should be played at the loudest volume possible.
Amusing celebrity-fueled viewing experience
So what are our takeaways from this LeBron James Beats Ad?

Second, Lil Wayne and LeBron James pairing for the Beats Pills commercial is a perfect match. The stars have chemistry and the ad is naturally funny. By the way, LeBron’s wife Savannah James also stars as a party guest.
