2016 yielded zero solo Lil Wayne projects. 2017 may yield four.
Earlier this week, Wayne reminded fans that three projects -- Carter V, Dedication 6, & Funeral -- are all on the way. In a new interview with REVOLT, Young Money president Mack Maine revealed that the label plans to release an additional Wayne project titled Velvet.
“We wanna get that Carter V out," Maine said. "Wayne also has a dope project called Velvet. We want to get that out.
He added that Young Money will release projects from Nicki Minaj this year, as well as a Wayne/Gudda Gudda/Hoody Baby compilation album called L.A.T.
"Drake dropping top of the year," he continued. "Nicki got some features that – I’ve been in the studio with her lately – that she’s just killing. She also gonna be working on her solo project and she’s dropping... We also have L.A.T. which is Wayne, Gudda and HoodyBaby. They going bananas... We got some shit in the chamber for y’all man. We gonna be all over your radio, all over your TV screen. If you got any problems with us, you not gonna be able to avoid us.”
According to Birdman, Carter V is "definitely coming out soon." Given Birdman's penchant for lying, his assertion must be taken with a grain of salt. But we can't help but be excited.
