Young Money has ignited a social media fire storm after posting what appears to be the cover art for Lil Wayne’s long awaited album, Tha Carter V.
On Wednesday (September 12), Young Money tweeted the art along with the caption, “Put them 5s up!!!”
Hot 97 reports the album is expected to drop on September 21, although Weezy’s camp hasn’t officially confirmed the release date.
Tha Carter V is almost like folklore at this point. After multiple delays due to Wayne’s legal issues with Cash Money CEO Bryan “Birdman” Williams, it’s going to be a miracle when the album actually does arrive.
Wayne won a small victory against Cash Money back in June. In an agreement between Wayne, Universal Records and Cash Money, Weezy is no longer part of the label and will receive a payout of over $10 million.
Social media is already running with Tha Carter V release date rumors after boxer Floyd Mayweather shared an Instagram post with a giant red “V” and the caption “#21″ under it.

Hard to believe c4 was 7 years ago already
He independent now or on another label?
I believe he is now with Universal Republic.
After running Around in the Hip Hop industry after telling everybody the Block Is Hot and then revisiting the aftermath this album gives him a chance to share his vision on the future of Hip Hop because you can never be a true leader unless your a good follower Young Money CEO has arrived ! Where Squad Up at have’t heard anything about them sents I ran into one of the members in Atlanta at a Greg Street event ?
This is old, Martin Shkreli has heard this ish like 100 times by now…
??? The King has returned!! #CV
Don’t bother.
This bih better be fire
Wont this now sound extremly dated?
Hopefully not as Im a massive weezy fan, but since Birdman has been sitting on this at least 2 of my favourite rappers have died.
who?
Most of the recent trendy rap music is complete trash anyway and it all sounds the same. Wayne always had a unique flow and that’s what sets him apart.
Doesn’t matter people are gonna hate even if it’s good, this generation is at a all time low, take away social media and none of these clowns tough
Man I was hoping to hear Detox first lol
Rebirth can’t wait
I thought he was retired
Take it for what its worth Lil Wayne time is up in the rap game he was only fooling himself by him saying im going to drop it every other year you cant find five people talking bout this on the street this is where it count NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope it drops and I hope it sounds outdated, and i hope its dope.
very likely his last album folks before he enjoys his life’s spoils.
