Following the first episode of the American version of the hit TV show, Lil Wayne was revealed as the surprise performer inside the giant robot costume, with judge Robin Thicke clearly stunned following the big reveal.
Before he was booted out of the show, Lil Wayne's only performance on 'The Masked Singer' saw him cover the classic Lenny Kravitz song 'Are You Gonna Go My Way'.
When Lil Wayne was revealed, judge Robin Thicke excalimed, "I've done five songs with him. This is the most shocked I've ever been on this show."
Before the big reveal, Lil Wayne said, 'I relate to robots because I've always felt the need to put on a tough outer shell. I think that makes me come across as inhuman, and it's stunted my potential," from inside his disguise.
