Lil Wayne, in an interview with MTV, said that he has plenty of work to come before his final album Tha Carter V. Two of the possible albums Weezy mentioned were Like Father Like Son 2 with Birdman and a new Big Tymers album with Drake. Now there is no guarantee either one of these albums will see the light of day but at least there’s a possibility. We will likely hear more about the project when Wayne and Baby appear on MTV’s RapFix Live tomorrow at 4pm EST.
Here is the official video for the first Rich Gang single Tapout, which features Birdman, Lil Wayne, Mack Maine, Nicki Minaj and Future. The visual includes cameos from Bow Wow, DJ Khaled, Paris Hilton, Christina Milian, Kimora Lee and more. Directed by Hannah Lux Davis. The Rich Gang compilation album drops on June 25th.
Looks like Rick Ross wasn’t the only one who rapped some lyrics that went a little over the top. As you are probably aware, Lil Wayne has been threatened with a lawsuit and complaint letters from the Till family for his lyrics on Future’s Karate Chop record, where he says “Beat that pussy up like Emmett Till.” Now, according to AP, Pepsi has officially dropped and ended ties with Lil Wayne, who was a huge promoter of Mountain Dew. PepsiCo said in a statement late Friday that Wayne’s “offensive reference to a revered civil rights icon does not reflect the values of our brand.”
The Rich Gang crew, consisting of Lil Wayne, Birdman, Future, Mack Maine and Nicki Minaj shot the visual for their Tapout single and here is a look behind the scenes. The full video premieres on Sunday.
With his highly anticipated mixtape dropping tomorrow, Funkmaster Flex and Complex team up to bring us one last leak from project. The mixtape, Who You Mad At? Me Or Yourself?, will feature 54 tracks and drops tomorrow night at 8pm.
DJ Khaled knows how to make hit singles and No New Friends is no different; with Drake, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne on the same track, it’s bound to be a hit. Produced by Boi-1da and Noah “40″ Shebib. This will appear on DJ Khaled’s upcoming album Suffering From Success.
Update: CDQ/No Tags
2 Chainz revisits his debut album Based On A T.R.U. Story to shoot the official visual for the opening track Yuck! featuring Weezy. Directed by Alex Nazari.
Here is a dope new Lil Wayne and Meek Mill collaboration titled I’m Good that didn’t make the cut for I Am Not A Human Being II, most likely due to clearance issues. This beat is too crazy and both Wayne and Meek kill their verses.
Update: Meek’s verse is actually from Ace Hood’s It’s Going Down.
Remember when Lil Wayne used to keep stressing how he was the best rapper alive and how almost every other song he released would be an instant fan-favorite? Remember Tha Carter IV and its mainstream approach? Remember when Lil Wayne said rap was boring and he was going to retire? Any Lil Wayne fan would recall these events and would likely be disappointed in the road that Weezy has decided to take. From skateboarding, to dissing the Miami Heat, to having a near-death experience from possible drug overdose; Tunechi just doesn’t seem as interested in the rap game like he used to be. Needless to say, for his 10th studio album, I Am Not A Human Being II, Wayne actually delivers an overall solid LP that has different sounds to it, despite the careless attitude.
