Lil Wayne Apologizes to Emmett Till Family

[Zanee]

seriously some of you are mad because wayne/his publicist apologized for that ignorant line.
if it wasnt for emmett till and countless other black people who lost their lives fighting the racism during the civil rights movement wayne wouldnt be where hes at today. hell he would be enslaved some damn where. considering waynes fanbase i wouldnt expect many of you to understand or care.

the nigga whistled at a white chick with a fat ass, try to spit some weak ass game then got his ass murked, wtf is the fuss about hoe

I think its cool Wayne apologized. Its not like he apologized to some thug for saying something, he apologized to a family whos relative was young & beat to death. I understand why he would do something like this

Lil Wayne's "apology" to the family of civil rights icon Emmett Till was NOT REALLY AN APOLOGY ... in fact, it fell way short ... a rep for the Till family tells TMZ.

Earlier today, Wayne fired off a letter to the Tills ... to "acknowledge" the hurt he caused the family when he compared Emmett's violent death with the violent way he has sex with women.

Nowhere in the letter did Wayne say he was sorry for what he did.

Now, Airickca Gordon-Taylor -- Executive Director, Mamie Till Mobley Memorial Foundation and Till Family Representative -- tells TMZ the family does not view the letter as a formal apology.

"While it’s commendable that he has vowed to respect the legacy of Emmett Till and his memory to ‘not use or reference Emmett Till or the Till family in his music,' this statement falls short of an apology, as none is mentioned."

We're reaching out to Lil Wayne for comment -- stay tuned.
