Lil Wayne's Carter IV Gets May 16 Release Date

by **slimsoxshady** » Mar 18th, '11, 01:13

Lil Wayne's highly anticipated forthcoming album, Tha Carter IV, finally has an official release date: May 16. Weezy F. Baby revealed the date Wednesday, during opening night of his I Am Music II Tour in Rhode Island.

"Tha Carter IV is done," Wayne told MTV News. "All they need to do is tell Tez [manager Cortez Bryant] to stop sitting on it. Tez, stop sitting on Tha Carter IV and put the album out."

Bryant, Weezy's longtime manager, was in attendance and provided the specific release date. "May 16, believe that," Wayne said. "It can come out tomorrow 'cause I'm so finished ... Tha Carter IV will be dropping May 16. If you're not doing anything, do me," he added.

The album will be his first official release since he was let out of Rikers Island prison facility in November after serving eight months of a one-year sentence. Originally, there were reports the album would come out on the same day Weezy was granted his freedom, however those plans never came to fruition.

The album's lead single, the Bangladesh-produced "6 Foot 7 Foot," features Young Money artist Cory Gunz. Recently, on the set of her upcoming video for "Super Bass," fellow YM artist Nicki Minaj revealed to MTV News that she completed a verse for the album.

"I think Carter IV is gonna just be exceptional, of course," she said. "I think Wayne is definitely on his grind crazy right now."

*awaits tracklist*

Hopefully....

I've got a feeling there won't be an Em collab on there though for some reason. Hope I'm wrong though.

Eminem not on there, i'll probably wait a couple days get more important shit done first :whistle:

carter 4 will not outsell Recovery

This is true. His last two albums didn't sell for shit even if you make the excuse of "online album" & "rock album". If Eminem did the same, they would sell like crazy. Wayne just isn't as popular as he used to be. It might make 500k in the first week but will die QUICKLY the week after that when GaGa's album comes out and rapes the charts.

Whoa I don't believe my eyes, an actual good post from you? the fuckin world must be coming to an end.

When Wayne got out of prison, his songs was great (Fire Flame, 6F7F) but lately his back on his weed thing and the new song with Lil Twist is just :facepalm

C4 can be good, but I don't think it will sell more then 500k first week, and be forgotten quickly

who gives a fuck.

by **Kevin Paul** » Mar 18th, '11, 17:53

I could give a fuckless about this news.
Everyone seems to be saying Wayne has gotten so much better after prison but the change doesn't seem significant to me he's still very poor compared to all the artists out right now
