Lil Wayne fans were praying Tha Carter Vwould drop at 12 a.m. EST night on Friday (September 21). But as the midnight hour came and went, the nearly mythical album was nowhere to be found.
The highly anticipated fifth installment of Tha Carter serieshas been delayed for years due to Wayne’s legal troubles with Cash Money CEO Bryan “Birdman” Williams.
The September 21 release date rumor starting floating around earlier this month. On September 12, Young Money caused a temporary social media frenzy when they posted Tha Carter V cover art.
