Lil Wayne and Mack Maine both partied with their childhood friend, Keith Atkinson aka Magic, the day before he was killed by a police officer in the 8600 block of Belfast Street in Hollygrove, New Orleans on February 16th.
The story behind this is that the police were responding to a shoplifting emergency call, but it turns out that Magic was not the actual thief who was shoplifting and according to Wayne, he had a drink in his hand that the cops thought was a gun.
