Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV Drops The Day He’s Released From Prison
Wayne will also headline a homecoming concert the same day, says YM president Mack Maine.
The biggest Young Money releases this year, of course, are coming courtesy of the leader of the family, Lil Wayne. Weezy has a 10-song project called I Am Not a Human Being that will be released digitally on his birthday, September 27. YM has tentative plans to come right back with more Weezy on November 5. That album, of course, will be his über-anticipated Tha Carter IV, or C4 as it’s been nicknamed.
“Tha Carter IV plans we had and still have are to put Tha Carter IV out the day he comes out [of prison],” Mack said yesterday in New York. “He had so many songs for Tha Carter IV, we said let’s just put these 10 songs out [on I Am Not a Human Being] and double-back for Tha Carter IV. He has more songs for Tha Carter IV that are still strong.”
Mack says that Wayne is deeply involved in Tha Carter IV‘s song selection process despite currently serving his yearlong sentence on Rikers Island.
“It’s basically me, him, Baby and Cortez Bryant mapping it out,” Mack explained. “We had a listening session out here. It was me, Baby and Cortez. I let [Wayne] know these are the ones we picked. He already picked six of them from back there. I let him hear it over the phone. I book him a studio session — kinda like I did for the ‘Light Up’ up remix with Drake. I book him a studio session and let him listen [to tracks] over the phone. ‘Do you like this one?’ ‘Yeah?’ ”
While Wayne shot a slew of videos for guest spots on other artists’ songs and for his Rebirth LP before he went to prison, Weezy did not get to film videos for I Am Not a Human Being or Carter IV, which by no means is stifling plans for the releases. “Right Above It” (originally a track for Carter IV) is the first single for … Human Being and has been released to radio. Meanwhile, Mack says the camp is thinking about not putting any music from Carter IV out prior to the release. They’re toying with the idea of letting the fans be surprised when they purchase the project.
“We might just drop the album that day,” Mack said of C4. “Just hope it don’t leak out and drop it that day. I think it would crazy, the anticipation.”
Right now, Wayne has a tentative release date from prison of November 5. Not only does Young Money want to drop Carter IV that day, they want to hold a welcome-home concert that night, which Wayne would headline.
“That’s where we are aiming for now,” Mack explained. “I think the Garden would be perfect. I wanna keep it Young Money. I think we can hold our own. As far as his set, it would be nice to have features and cameos on his set. As far as who opens for him, it’ll be a no-brainer, Young Money could hold it down. Just have the big features on Wayne’s set. He’s gonna have a show, then go to the studio. I just had a birthday recently. I had four parties for my birthday. For him, it’s no telling how that week would go, how that month would go. Five months [would go]. We’re gonna party like when Frank came home in ‘King of New York.’ We’re gonna go crazy.”

yeeaaaah! maybe tha nigga has a 2pac in jail…lol
No its ; Bring back 2pac and free wayne .
I don’t like the idea of it coming out on Nov. 4. I mean as much as I can’t wait for it, he needs it to be anticipated like the C3. First he had a few leaks then pushed it back, then he made new songs. And after that the whole album was leaked and then he pushed it back and made the leak. IF he do shit like that for C4, its gonna be the most anticipated album of all time!
First off….c4 will leak….this idea is going to blow over. NO WAY are they gonna just drop this supposed C4 on the release date.—-
Besides CORTEZ…the real brains behind the project insisted that they’ll wait for FRESH NEW post jail verses from lil wayne.
IM NOT HUMAN is going to have c4 songs so thats a good thing seeing as they will be high quality mastered tracks with wayne ripping the mic not some low budget thrown together tracks that he recorded.
Right above it is really amazing, just had to say that…it doesn’t get old either.
mmmmmmmmm i just jizzed in waynes mouth, and im not even gay,
he is.
