Rapper Lil Wayne prompted criticism after he was spotted filming a new music video where he tramples an American flag and proceeds to jump up and down on the national symbol.

The 30-year-old returned to his old 'stomping' grounds of Hollygrove, New Orleans to shoot the video for 'God Bless Amerika', a single off his album. Leaked cell phone footage captured the four-time Grammy winner clutching an old-fashioned microphone before a large hanging flag on Saturday. The flag was then dropped on the asphalt by a grip on a ladder, revealing a massive crowd of Louisiana locals.

Weezy - born Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. - continued to rap as he casually strolled on top of the crumpled star-spangled banner. Lil Wayne wore a vest reading 'Jesus saves I spend,' red basketball shorts covered in gold crosses, and Air Jordans.
