Lil Wayne performed the song live for the first time on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on December 12, 2018. The collaboration between the two artists happened as a result of Young Money Entertainment's president Mack Maine acquiring the rights to use the verse while sequencing and putting together the track list of the album. Before the collaboration, Wayne did not know who XXXTentacion was. The vocals used in "Don't Cry" by XXXTentacion were recorded prior to his death on June 18, 2018. It debuted and peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, where it became the second-highest charting song from the album and in XXXTentacion's discography. The song uses vocals recorded by XXXTentacion prior to his death on June 18, 2018. "Don't Cry" was released as the second single from Lil Wayne's twelfth album Tha Carter V.

I have to disagree with irionman's review where he says in 5-10 years no one will give a damn about Lil Wayne. As much as I disliked Biggie's voice and lack of breath control, I'll take it any day over Lil Wayne or any other autotuned garbage. So what if he has the voice of an 8-year-old asthmatic. Why does nearly every track have a featured vocalist? Because he couldn't carry even 4 bars if they had handles with sticky tape. That is what the MC'ing element is all about, delivering creative lyrics. So what! I'd rather listen to a real lyricist like Rakim flow over a $10 Casio. "But he can play guitar and create beats, blah, blah" some may counter. Lil Wayne epitomizes everything that is wrong with rap music. I turned the radio off and listened to the traffic. He is popular, but why? Because now most artists, producers, labels, broadcasters and fans care more about "the game" than the culture. You can't blame them for playing his music. I scroll through the presets to a hip hop station, not some middle America subversion, but a real "Chocolate City" station only to hear Lil Wayne. While in my car I decided to turn off the CD player and listen to the radio. The following incident made me write this review.
