Lil Wayne's brand-new album is finally here.
On Friday, June 6, Weezy F. Baby dropped his 14th solo album Tha Carter VI via Young Money/Republic Records. The album begins with "King Carter followed by "Welcome To The Carter," which are his most personal songs on the 19-track project. It continues with songs like "Bells," his collaboration with BigXthaPlug, "Hip-Hop" featuring Jay Jones, and "Sharks" with Jelly Roll & Big Sean. Wayne also joined forces with Bono, 2 Chainz, his sons Kameron Carter & Lil Novi, Andrea Bocelli, Wyclef Jean, Mannie Fresh, MGK, and Kodak Black.
"Every album I do is years in the making because I never stop making 'em," Lil Wayne tells iHeartRadio about the album. "So Tha Carter VI just means another muthaf**king accomplishment, another opportunity, and overall, another blessing. Plain and simple. Thank God every single second I get a chance to, and I still don't thank 'em enough. Thank God."
Lil Wayne is set to celebrate the release of his new album tonight at the official kick-off of "Tha Carter VI Tour" at Madison Square Garden. Afterward, Weezy will bring special guests Tyga, NoCap and Belly Gang Kushington with him to various cities around the U.S. and Canada beginning in Bristow, Va. on July 30. He plans to close out the tour on October 2 in West Palm Beach. Weezy will also make a stop in Las Vegas to perform at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Festival on September 19.
