When Lil Wayne hits the stage for MTV Unplugged on June 12, it will be his first time appearing on the show.

In addition to his long list of hits, MTV is reporting that Weezy will perform a special tribute to fallen hip hop legend Tupac Shakur. Wayne talks about why he picked “Hail Mary” to perform.
