During a performance at the House of Blues in New Orleans yesterday (February 14), Drake provided information about Lil Wayne’s forthcoming Tha Carter V album.
“You wanna hear Lil Wayne at his best,” Drake says in a video posted by motahiphop.com, “if you wanna hear Young Money at they best, I mean it’s Carter V May fifth. Just know we about this shit for real.”
On Sunday (February 9), Drake tweeted about Carter V.
In June 2013, Lil Wayne said he hopes to retire after Tha Carter V’s release.
“My next album isn’t Tha Carter V because I think I have to work on other albums with my pop Birdman and things like that,” Wayne said at the time. “But, after Tha Carter V, I hope I can retire.”

Lil Wayne been garbage for a while! Last good project was no ceiling. its been a whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiile
If were talking albums, he hasn’t had a good one since C2… After that dope mixtape run he hasn’t been able to craft songs like he did on that joint, the whole album bangs right through. None has come close since… Well never see that Weezy again
tha carter 4 was a very good album yall niggas just was tired of him and slept on it I know I did the same but now I listen to it and its damn good
Carter 4 sucked ass.
I can’t wait……..for him to retire that is
I feel you but the way you said that shit was corny as fuck.that’s something wayne would do
No bitch this is how wayne would say it. I’ll always comment and I don’t give a shit because I’m not on the…. toilet
yeeees finally! carter V, D12 (few tracks), Ice cube, 50 cent
those who aren’t looking forward to some of these hype tracks can go listen to waka flocka flame.
Wayne’s gonna run rap again and show you niggas another multi platinum album with almost a million sold 1st week. Why praise MMLP2 sales when it was nowhere near tha carter 4? Wayne’s running rap.
Wayne is done. C5 ain’t gonna sell like C3/C4, it’ll struggle to go platinum. Also, MMLP2 is about to outsell C4. Wayne’s not running anything.
Go home Lil Wayne, you’ve been sipping too much lean again.
You spelled “ruin” and “ruining” wrong.
CANT WAIT!………to avoid that shit like gang rape in prison
looking forward to not listening to this
lol
No hate, just hope he can get back to form and rapids he’s hungry again.
lil waynes one of those dudes who has 1 good song out of every 100, he puts out so much material and non of its any good, cant tell me right now ianahb2 was good and carter 4 wasn’t that great either
What?? Retire and Skate?? LMFAO!! Get the fuck outta here!
I got a tele n u got a vision call it television hahaha
Igot a d u have vd call it a dvd
GOLD!!!!!
Doubt he’s going to retire but I can hope anyway. This will do 600-750k first week and end up at like 1.2-1.5 million tops, Wayne’s reign is over. Em, Drake, Macklemore, Kendrick, and Jay-Z are more popular than him atm.
That’s what you said when tha carter 4 came out yet it sold almost as much as tha carter 3.
I thought it would sell 750k fw and go double plat. I wasn’t too far off.
Wayne is about to drop his best effort
He already dropped his best effort with Tha Carter 2.
Tha Carter 2 was the greatest album back when it came out. Every wayne album since surprassed it.
Nope. Tha Carter 2 is Wayne’s only good album. Every album since that sucked hard.
Wrong! Carter 3 shits on 2.
No, it doesn’t, especially with that Lollipop crap.
Carter 2 by far. his only good solo album.
THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. CV IS THE GHETTO BIBLE.
BOOSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Carter 4 was pure trash with Wayne’s Dr. Seuss Mother Goose ass rhymes. Wayne has no bars, Wayne has no swag, Wayne talks about eating pussy like its a complicated subject. Please retire!!!!!
the first release date for a Lil Wayne album is never the right one. that nigga’s gonna delay his album just like all his other ones. I bet Carter V will still be in production come summer.
its the hype and marketing machine. after the style of last years’ last minute releases, there might be another gimmick to this.
The Carter V? Yawn…
why is Drake releasing this information? he is an attention whore.
yes! retirement at last!!!
Wayne fell off after carter II,i mean…the guy did a song on a mixtape with a fucking 8 yo rapping about drugs and hoes! when i was 8 i thought about pranking the neighbourhood and climbing trees!
To all y’all comming at me with the sales BS, all i have to say to that is: RA The Rugged man, Elzhi, Immortal Technique, Talib Kweli, Strange Music, ect THOSE are artists who build a name for themselves by touring and staying real, sales don’t mean shit if you sound just like any other rapper out there
You bout the most retarted motherfucker on here. Kill yourself hoe.
up to I looked at the draft saying $9494 , I have faith …that…my mother in law could actualie bringing home money parttime from there computar. . there aunt haz done this for less than 11 months and recently took care of the mortgage on their appartment and purchased a brand new BMW 5-series . Read Full Report…….http://x.co/3u0XD
on Monday that makes sense?
Just so yall nigggas know, Tune ain’t ever gonna retire. He said that shit back in June and he said in an interview last month that he was high as fuck and it wasn’t true. Wayne is the GOAT. Stop criticizing and start epitomizing.
