Lil Wayne has responded to Birdman’s claims that the world will hear Tha Carter V and he’s not a happy camper.
According to TMZ, Weezy’s sources told the publication Birdman is “full of shit” for saying the much-anticipated album is “definitely coming out.”
The two have been waging war since at least 2014 when the projected release date for the album came and went and then Wayne publicly said he wanted off Cash Money.
Birdman has played cool throughout the process and still refers to Tunechi as his “son.” Wayne’s sources tell TMZ it’s all for show as the CEO is trying to “look like the nice guy” to the public.
Meanwhile, Wayne’s camp says Birdman has made no moves to give the New Orleans rapper the payment he’s demanding for the release of Tha Carter V, which would be one of four releases from the Young Money leader this year.
TMZ continues by saying all hope is not lost and sources for Cash Money reveal Birdman recently met with Universal Music Group to try to figure out an answer to Lil Wayne’s legal demands so that The Carter V can be freed.

For a while it was looking like the only way to hear Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter V was to get on Martin Shkreli’s good side.
Luckily, the co-founder of Cash Money Records has set minds at ease over the fate of Weezy’s long-awaited album. In a recent interview with Travis Scott and Chase B on their Beats 1 radio show .wav radio, the label boss said “Wayne is one of the best artists ever to do the game, and I just wanna see him continue doing what he’s been doing, and I’mma support whatever he’s doing.”
The album has been touted for release since as early as 2013. Four years later and with no release date set, it’s understandable that fans are starting to wonder if they’ll ever hear it at all.
However, Birdman was insistent that the album would come out, saying: “Carter V coming out. It’s definitely coming out. The situation with me and my son … I’mma put all that behind us and just let it move forward.” It’s a faint glimmer of hope for Weezy fans, although Birdman still had no date for the release.
Tha Carter V has been at the heart of long-standing beef between Lil Wayne and his record label, a dispute that has seen both men take frequent public swipes at one another. Lil Wayne has regularly blamed his record label for delaying the album’s release and is embroiled in a $51-million lawsuit over his contract.

Every time birdman talk I just feel like I know what he gonna say. “PWABOI listen up yuErd ME? Uptown N’orleans (RICHGANG Adlib) 100 daddy. 5 starz. brrrrrrrrddddddd Me and junior dropping the carter V baleeedat. ( rubs hands )
You said it like a clairvoyant except next time put some respek on his name
No offense, but nobody wants to hear 6 Years old Music. For me this whole Beef is just a marketing scheme to create a Detox hype around this album to sell more records. but the hype is over!!!
That’s what I say too, shit probably talks about things that happened back in 2014 that no one cares about anymore.
This entire situation i’m sure every one is sick of hearing about this bird brain &weezy
bloody bird working on his new year’s resolution, don’t be mean in 2017 haha
Watch shit not come When they say come out but day later
Detox 2
Huh
I think Wayne should go over to No Limit that would be sick and they are starting to blow up over there right now with the No Limit Boys album
skkkkrrrttt
It’s lil Wayne fault that rappers be almost 30 then start claiming they BL00D or CR!P
Birdeman fault because he should have that shit out on time , he said was come out he had even body want on shit still didnt come out if he didnt know when come out he should not said shit .
Lil wayne should be piss off
Slimmy long sucks a dong
Lil wayne b g@y
Y’all unemployed no-lifes ain’t fooling anyone spending all damn day liking your comments over and over, don’t y’all have anything more productive to do
I wouldn’t at all be surprised if Birdman sexually abused Wayne.
Why wouldnt he black mail him for the album and the money if that was the case
Good point! But look at it like this, if it were you- that something like that happened to- wouldn’t you try to block it out, let alone speak on it? The mere fact Birdman said to some ho to suck lil wayne dick, when he was well under-age, is so outta wack– it saddens me none of these so called bad-ass “wankstas” called Birdman out on it. That in itself tells me that he’s feared. Which could explain why Wayne wouldn’t dare blackmail him. Instead, make it public and go through the courts. Play safe… But then again, didn’t Waynes tour-bus get blasted upon?
Yawn*
remember when he was about to cry asking for some respek ………..peppergridge farm do
