Lil Wayne is expanding his empire from music to mobile gaming.

The Young Money CEO announced his new venture, Lil Wayne: Sqvad Up, with a video clip posted on his Instagram page on Tuesday. Weezy partnered with the technology company Utility to create the new gaming app.

The app, Sqvad Up, is being deemed as “the action packed game that celebrates the Hip Hop icon’s love for the thrill of skateboarding.” The game will allow players to dodge obstacles while collecting gear and other items.

Lil Wayne is excited about the app and hopes that it can inspire others.

“I’m super excited to drop my first mobile skateboarding game, Lil Wayne: Sqvad Up as a way to share my passion for skateboarding. It’s also special to celebrate all that makes my home of Hollygrove and New Orleans such a dope place.”

“I started skating at 29, not just because I thought it looked cool, but also because I wanted to be able to inspire kids to get outside and play. Skating is a perfect way for kids today to stay out of trouble and be positive and active.”

Lil Wayne will preview the app at E3 in Los Angeles, June 14-16, 2016.
