Lil Wayne announces vinyl boxset featuring ‘Tha Carter’ singles

‘Tha Carter Singles Collection’ will also feature an unreleased track from an era that produced ‘Tha Carter III’ titled ‘Ya Dig’. The track was released on digital platforms last Friday (October 8) via Young Money Records/Republic Records.

The news follows Wayne working with Rich The Kid to drop a collaborative mixtape, ‘Trust Fund Babies’, which was released on October 6.

In 2020, Lil Wayne released his thirteenth studio album, ‘Funeral’. Later that year, the rapper revealed that he was preparing ‘I Am Not A Human Being III’, the next instalment in his other series of albums.

It was also announced in March that a new Young Money compilation is on the way, following 2014’s ‘Rise Of An Empire’.

Lil Wayne shares song thought to have been recorded in the late 2000s, ‘Ya Dig’

As Stereogum noted further, it’s possible that the song hadn’t been released before because it contains a sample of Margie Joseph’s version of The Supremes’ ‘Stop! In The Name Of Love’, which Wayne also sampled on ‘Gossip’, his classic track from his 2007 EP ‘The Leak’.

The news follows Wayne working with Rich The Kid to drop a collaborative mixtape, ‘Trust Fund Babies’, which was released earlier this week.

Elsewhere, Wayne was recruited for a remix of Run The Jewels’ 2020 cut ‘Ooh La La’ arriving with the deluxe edition of ‘RTJ4’ last month.

Wayne’s verse opens the ‘Ooh La La’ remix, which also features Greg Nice and DJ Premier. It’s one of three remixes of ‘RTJ4’ that appear on the deluxe edition.

Black also shared his thoughts, tweeting: “I Want To Thank The President @RealDonaldTrump For His Commitment To Justice Reform And Shortening My Sentence. I Also Want To Thank Everyone For Their Support And Love.

“It Means More Than You Will Ever Know. I Want To Continue Giving Back, Learning And Growing.”

Black was serving a 46-month prison sentence on federal weapons charges. He was sentenced back in November 2019 after being found guilty of falsifying information on background forms while attempting to purchase firearms.

The rapper previously said he would donate $1 million to charity if Trump gave him a presidential pardon.

Wayne and Black were two of over 140 people who were pardoned or had their sentences commuted on Trump’s final day in office.

That list also notably included former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon, who was a founding member of far-right media organisation Breitbart News.

Lil Wayne releases new version of NFL anthem ‘Green And Yellow’

“I did a song before and we had a good turnout. It was successful,” Wayne said. “We had good results, and we’re going to try to do it again this time… I put a lot of time into it. I worked on it for three days, too. I don’t do that.”

The rapper added that he wanted Packers players “to hear it and be ready to run through a wall”.

— UNDISPUTED (@undisputed) January 15, 2021

Wayne also discussed how he became a Packers fan while growing up in New Orleans, explaining that it began with the Packers’ Super Bowl win in his home town in 1997.

“My late father, Reginald McDonald, he attended that Super Bowl – he wasn’t a fan of any of the teams there. It was just so amazing that the Super Bowl was in New Orleans,” he said.

“He came home with Green Bay championship towels… cups, hats – anything that was being given, he had it, he brought it to the house. From that moment on, I was a Green Bay Packers fan.”

The ‘Green And Yellow’ update follows last October’s ‘NFL’ as the latest American football-inspired track from the artist.

Wayne and Kodak Black are also reportedly among those that US President Donald Trump is considering pardoning during the final days of his term.

Back in December, Wayne pled guilty to a federal firearms charge relating to a December 2019 incident, in which he was arrested for illegal possession of a handgun during a flight on his private jet from California to Florida. He is set to appear in court on January 28, facing a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

Lil Wayne shares ‘B Side’ deluxe edition of ‘No Ceilings 3’ mixtape

Stream ‘No Ceilings 3 – B Side’ in full via YouTube below.

“The mixtape game seemed to be a dying art and since I’m one of the pioneers of the craft, and it played such a big part in my career, I felt it was only right to resurrect it,” Lil Wayne said of ‘No Ceilings 3’ in an interview with Complex. “Also, it’s a lot of songs out here I wanted to kill my way!”

In other news, Lil Wayne pleaded guilty to one count of illegal firearm possession this month.

The rapper – real name Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. – was charged last month for an incident in December 2019, in which the rapper had boarded a flight with a loaded .45 calibre handgun packed in his luggage.

Carter is also being sued by his former managers Ronald Sweeney and Avant Garde Management for alleged unpaid commissions.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the two claim they are owed over $20 million in unpaid management commissions by Wayne. They claim to have managed over 30 lawsuits for the rapper, which brought in a substantial amount of money for him, and for which they allege they “received very little compensation”.

Lil Wayne sued by former managers for alleged unpaid commissions

In the documents, Sweeney claims Wayne hired him in 2005 to help renegotiate his deal with Cash Money Records following his dispute with the New Orleans rap label.

That lawsuit was settled in 2018, and now Sweeney claims he didn’t receive proper compensation for his role in the settlement.

Sweeney and Avant Garde claim that Wayne “failed and refused to pay Plaintiffs his promised 10% of the recovery from lawsuits, 10% of the sale of master recordings owned by Lil Wayne’s record label, and then 17% in general commissions that he owes to Plaintiffs in connection with Plaintiffs’ day to day management activities.”

They added that “they worked tirelessly as Lil Wayne’s manager and close confidante for nearly 14 years” and that they managed “all of his entities, his ‘friends’, his enemies, and his lawyers.”

NME has reached out to Lil Wayne’s representatives for comment.

Yesterday (December 12), Lil Wayne pleaded guilty to one count of illegal firearm possession.

The rapper was charged last month for an incident in December 2019, in which the rapper had boarded a flight with a loaded .45 calibre handgun packed in his luggage.

Under federal law, convicted felons are banned from possessing guns, which means Carter could face up to 10 years imprisonment. He will be handed his sentence on January 28 next year.

It follows the news that Wayne has reportedly sold the rights to his masters for $100 million.

TMZ has reported that the ‘A Milli’ rapper sold his masters to Universal Music Group back in June, but it is just being brought to public knowledge due to a pending lawsuit.

Listen to Drake and Lil Wayne collaborate on new track ‘BB King Freestyle’

He raps: “I come with a lot of complications inside me/It’s always people misleadin’ me that’ll try and guide me/Everyone wants to try me, but no ones wants to buy me/Everyone wants to meet me, but no one wants to keep me/Everyone talkin’ lemons when everything is peachy/Everyone got they hands out, and it ain’t to reach me.”

Listen to ‘BB King Freestyle’ below:

Drake recently acknowledged that he expects some people will “hate on” his forthcoming new album ‘Certified Lover Boy’ like they did with his 2016 album ‘Views’.

Set for release in January 2021, ‘Certified Lover Boy’ will be the follow-up to June 2018’s ‘Scorpion’.

Meanwhile, Drizzy has been given Barack Obama‘s “stamp of approval” to play him in a prospective film.

In the latest episode of Complex‘s 360 With Speedy Morman, the former United States president answered a variety of questions ranging from this year’s presidential election to the coronavirus pandemic, to his comments on rap music increasing Donald Trump’s support among Black male voters, and more.

Complex News host Speedy Morman also asked Obama if he would “give the thumbs up” for Drake to portray his likeness in a potential film or biopic.

“I will say this – Drake seems to be able to do anything he wants,” Obama replied.

“I mean, that is a talented brother. If the time comes, and he’s ready…Drake has – more importantly – my household’s stamp of approval. I suspect Malia and Sasha would be just fine with it.”

Lil Wayne has been charged with gun possession

The charge carries a potential sentence of up to 10 years in prison. Carter previously had a weapons conviction in New York more than a decade ago, which saw him sentenced to eight months in prison.

Convicted felons are barred under federal law from owning firearms.

But Carter’s lawyer, Howard Srebnick, said in an email that there are legal questions about whether mere possession of a weapon by a felon not judged to be dangerous fits the definition of a crime.

“Carter is charged with possessing a gold-plated handgun in his luggage on a private plane. There is no allegation that he ever fired it, brandished it, used it or threatened to use it,” Srebnick said. “There is no allegation that he is a dangerous person.”

He continued: “The charge is that because he was convicted of a felony in the past, he is prohibited from possessing a firearm.

“Although the Supreme Court has not yet decided the constitutional question, Justice Amy Coney Barrett recently wrote an appellate dissenting opinion in which she stated that ‘Absent evidence that he either belongs to a dangerous category or bears individual markers of risk, permanently disqualifying [a convicted felon] from possessing a gun violates the Second Amendment’.”

Investigators also claim they found suspected illegal drugs in the luggage, but Carter has not been charged with a drug offence.

An initial court date has been set for December 11 in Miami federal court.

Drake and Lil Wayne have reportedly discussed another joint tour

“My favourite tour of them all was this Drake vs Lil Wayne tour,” Bryant said. “The concept was crazy,” he added, referring to an interactive app given to fans at the tour, with which they could give either Drake or Wayne a “power up” while performing, in homage to Street Fighter.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by brian b.dot™ miller (@bdottm) on Sep 7, 2020 at 12:40pm PDT

“Drake came up with the Street Fighter concept. I’m not taking credit for that. Drake came up like, ‘Yo, I got a dope ass concept.’” Bryant added. “So the Street Fighter collaboration with all the graphics and content that we had on the screen – I thought that was dope.

“It was a fun tour. We had fun every night. It was at a time when Drake had arrived as an artist. From seeing him from the inception as a superstar himself and mentor and mentee just going on the stage, having fun, talking a little shit during the whole time … And they talked about [doing a second tour]. I think we do need to do it again.”

Akon recently revealed that he turned down the chance to sign Drake when he was an unknown rapper, because he thought he “sounded like Eminem”.

Drake is set to release his new album ‘Certified Lover Boy’ in the coming months, though it was recently revealed that the rapper failed to trademark the titular term ahead of the release of the album.

After releasing ‘Eternal Atake’ in March, Uzi shared an expanded version of the album, featuring a whole second disc and taking the tracklisting to 32 songs.

Reviewing ‘Eternal Atake’, NME wrote: “Inspired by Greek mythology, this sprawling record sees Uzi confirm his status as a modern great whose releases act as timestamps for rap.

“Lil Uzi Vert still has the game in a chokehold,” the review continued. He’s been making masterpieces for five years now; his body of work offers timestamps for different eras of rap music in that period. And here, again, he has made another record that will stay close to the hearts of a generation of rap fans. He is surely our generation’s Lil Wayne.”

Dakillah – SKYS4U lyrics

Honey the sky is for you
And i’m not mean
Is that somebody
Gave you their heart but your drunk of my blood
We both known that i love it
We both known that i love it

Papi vamos tranquilos, yo te quiero llevar
A donde no existe el ruido, el horario o forma de pensar
Donde solo somos nosotros y no nos van a molestar
Donde no importan los otros, vamos, no la vas a pasar mal

Quiero tirarme con vos a nadar
Tus ojos y mi risa flotando en un cielo de nubes blancas pintadas en un mar
Todo perfecto, ni yo me lo creo, pero te lo puedo jurar
Dame la mano y no vayas a soltar
Los dos en una playa en Dubai
Tu orden mi ley, lo siento llegar
No story no fake y que estemos de mas

Nuestras relación es rara
Y eso es parte del juego
Peleamos, cortamos y nos vemos de nuevo
Me ama, lo amo, me quiere, lo quiero
Pero algunas veces jugamos a distintos juegos
Y aunque ya no sé si puedo

Esta medio loco, es lindo y caballero
Chamuya re piola en la vida de rapero
No anda con zorras, y aunque yo soy forra
El dice que soy su trofeo

Ya fue, nos vemos
Desde que lo conozco no creo que nadie llegue a ser tan bueno
Teniéndote cerca no hay momentos feos
Estando con vos como no alardeo

Mi negro te adoro, sos todo, quiero regalarte una vida de oro
Subirte a mi yate y llevarte al Caribe a buscar un tesoro
Hacer diez temas, susurro los coros, nunca me dejes, te ruego
Que sin dos adentro del juego, no se puede jugar de a uno solo

Soñandote con los ojos abiertos
Siendo tu reina imaginando un cuento
Abrazao a mi gana, pegao a mí cuerpo
Pasao por tu cara tirao por el tiempo
Dame, dame, dame mimos y besos, pasame la mano por toda la espalda
Yo estaré al par de tu concierto escuchando tus temas, moviendo la nalga

Quiero ser tu Nicky, que seas mi Lil Wayne
Moverme como Rihanna y que me agarre como Drake
Mirarte como Hannah diciendo “shut up and obey”
Arrancándote las penas, corro como Kanye West

Todavía queda time, come on papi we´re not late
Yo no quiero a cualquiera, quiero que vos seas mi Messi
No quiero horas buenas para decir goodbay; it´s okay

Honey the sky is for you
And i’m not mean
Is that somebody
Gave you their heart but your drunk of my blood
We both known that i love it
We both known that i love it

Rey, rey, rey, rey, rey, hacelo por mí
Don´t stay, stay, stay, stay, stay, hacelo por mí
Rey, rey, rey, rey, rey, hacelo por mí
This isn´t fake, fake, fake, fake, fake, but now this is it

Me voy pa la cima y te llevo conmigo
Teniéndome encima no hay chances de dormirnos
Si no llego arriba, corre que te sigo
Haciendo movidas, sabiendo lo que perdimos

Ahora estando en la mía baby
A lo que no vimos
Nos usamos aunque nos amamos
Soy mala, sos malo, en el tiempo surgimos
Por más que lo nuestro es fuerte
La suerte ésta vez no se quiso ir conmigo

La próxima gritemosle a la luna fuck haters
Don´t stop baby, un beso y nos fuimos
Don´t stop baby, un beso y nos fuimos

Honey the sky is for you
And i’m not mean
Is that somebody
Gave you their heart but your drunk of my blood
We both known that i love it
We both known that i love it

Rey, rey, rey, rey, hacelo por mí
Don´t stay, stay, stay, stay, hacelo por mí
Rey, rey, rey, rey, hacelo por mí
This isn´t fake, fake, fake, fake, but now this is it

[Intro: yg]
Now you know who I am right?

I got a fire red bone who go all night long, Boos
She like her *ss tooted up and her face down

Face down, face down

[Verse 1: Lil Wayne]
She got a diamond in her pearl tongue

Bling, bling, up in this motherfucker
Make up on my sheets and on my shirt
And on my briefs, she get on my nerves
But I don’t say shit cause she too sweet
She ride this **** up and down the street
She like when it hurt, I like when it’s free
It must be the bird, it must be the bees
I think I said I love her, I was half asleep
I was caught in the moment
Yea, then I was gone in the mornin’
She called my phone in the mornin’ and started moanin’ and groanin’
While I be home in a moment
She say she work tonight, you better work tonight
And leave out that motherfucker with some merchandise
I ain’t playin’ with ya, you got some shit with ya
I’m a lil ****a, but I’m a big tipper
Cause it ain’t nothin’ to me, but you gotta work for it
Grind, grindin’ on that wood, you got a surfboard

[Hook:]

[Verse 2: Big Sean]

Oh my God, I’m in love with a porn star

T-Pain Files Lawsuit Against Lil Wayne Over Royalties For “Carter 3”


T-Pain slaps Lil Wayne with a lawsuit for $500,000 owed to him from “Tha Carter III” album.

T-Pain and Lil Wayne will likely not be doing anymore music together after the auto-tune singer threw the Young Money emcee a curve ball in the form of a lawsuit. TMZ reported that T-Pain’s company Nappy Boy Productions has filed a lawsuit against Young Money Records for hundreds of thousands of dollars owed. According to the suit, T-Pain produced Lil Wayne’s song “Get Money” which also features the hip hop singer.

Pain also added that his artists Young Fyre also produced the song “How to Hate” on Wayne’s album “Tha Carter IV” but never get paid. T-Pain says that the deal was for Young Money to pay him royalties which was not forthcoming. The album “Tha Carter III” was released in 2008 and sold 3.2 million copies in the United States alone.

T-Pain believes that he and his artist Young Fyre are owed at least $500,000 and he wants Young Money to pay up. This is the latest lawsuit in the ongoing legal battle between Lil Wayne, Birdman and Cash Money. Young Money is a subsidiary of Cash Money Records. Weezy is already suing Cash Money for $51 million and says he wants a judge to release him from the label for breach of contract.

Kodak Black Gets Trolled For Calling Self The Lil Wayne Of This Generation


Kodak Black is adamant that he is the Lil Wayne of this generation but Twitter thinks that he couldn’t be more wrong.

There was once a time when Kodak Black said he is greater than Lil Wayne and he got hammered for it. Seems he never learned his lesson or his obsession with Weezy is getting the better of him because now he is referring to himself as the Lil Wayne of this generation of hip hop. Rappers these days can’t help themselves when talking about some icons of the genre, everyone wants to be the Tupac, Biggie Smalls, Nas or JAY-Z of this generation.

One of his fans on Twitter wrote “Kodak Black is the Lil Wayne of this generation” and the Pompano Beach rapper enthusiastically added, “I Swear.” Those two harmless words triggered a Twitter firestorm and Weezy never had to utter a single word. “How can that even be compared Lil wayne has the nastiest word play I’ve ever heard he put ppl on,” one fan tweeted.

Kodak Black buried his beef with Lil Wayne and even announced recently that he has a new collaboration with the rap legend already recorded and mastered. During one of his frequent Instagram Live sessions last weekend, he revealed that he wants to get Future on the record. “By the way, I finna [trying to] get Future,” he said. “Future need to get on this song me and Lil Wayne on. Me and Tunechi on.”

Since leaving prison in November last year, Kodak Black has had a good run in hip hop this year with a handful of hits and a new album Project Baby 2, released in August. The Florida rapper also has his fair share of legal troubles that are not going away including a rape for which he was just indicted for.

Rick Ross Asks Birdman What Will It Take To Pay Lil Wayne


Rick Ross keeps his foot on Birdman’s neck in a new video where he asked the rap mogul to pay Lil Wayne.

Last week, Birdman went on an epic rant on Instagram Live cursing out his critics including Rick Ross while telling them to stop speaking on his feud with Lil Wayne. As we all know, the Cash Money honcho owes Weezy millions of dollars and has even shelved his last album Tha Carter V. While Wayne has not said anything since that rant, Rozay responded with one simple message, pay that man his money.

“Am riding with a couple homies we gonna go grab a bite to eat,” Rick Ross said. “It just ran across my mind like damn I wonder if Birdman paid that man [Lil Wayne] yet, pay that man. Pay that man that man sold a million the first week, god damn what that man got to do to get his money, what that man got to do for you to pay him. Sell 10 million in the first two days then you don’t pay the man, god damn that man let you sweet ni**as ride around for a very long time man. Go and get a loan and pay that man.”

Rick Ross posted a couple more clips of himself calling out Birdman for his reputation of not paying people he worked with. The MMG rapper even dared Birdman to come at him. “You know where am at I am about to get me some lemon pepper wings,” he said. During his rant, Birdman claimed that Lil Wayne is his son and he will make sure that he is straight because he took Wayne from nothing and made him into something. But according to Rozay, he used Weezy to make millions and then refused to pay the Young Money rapper what he is owed.

Nicki Minaj Talks Male Counterpart: “I got to prove myself a hundred times”


Nicki Minaj covers T Magazine’s Great Issue and she made some interesting revelations in her cover story.

Despite all the chatters about the female hip hop scene currently, Nicki Minaj is still very much the leading female artist in the genre, a title she earned herself with her hard work and dedication over the years. In her interview with Time, the Young Money rapper spoke in depth about her career including her upcoming album and her vast catalog.

“I kind of love that I’ve had to go through so many hurdles to get where I am because I feel like I deserve it,” she said. “I had so much going against me in the beginning: being black, being a woman, being a female rapper. No matter how many times I get on a track with everyone’s favorite M.C. and hold my own, the culture never seems to want to give me my props as an M.C., as a lyricist, as a writer. I got to prove myself a hundred times, whereas the guys that came in around the same time as I did, they were given the titles so much quicker without anybody second-guessing.”

Nicki Minaj and Drake broke onto the rap scene at the same time in 2009 when Lil Wayne signed both of them to Young Money/Cash Money. Other rappers like Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole broke onto the scene after the two Young Money titans and all three male emcees, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and J. Cole are often mentioned in the discussion about the top five rappers of this generation. Nicki Minaj, on the other hand, is often seen as just a regular rapper doing her thing, despite for years being the only female out there putting in the work.

“I believe in my gift wholeheartedly,” Minaj said. “Sometimes I wake up and say, ‘I don’t know if I can do this anymore,’ you know? I’ve had those times. I’ve had those years where I’m just like, ‘Am I good enough?’” But then she wholeheartedly believe that she was meant to withstand what regular girls can’t.

Nicki Minaj is currently working on her new album but still hasn’t given any concrete details like release date and title. Nevertheless, she said its the most free she has ever been since her mixtape days to make the music that she wants to make.

You can read her full spread here.

Nicki Minaj Says She Is Why Female Rappers Are Popping Again

Nicki Minaj accomplishments in hip hop over the last decade cannot go unnoticed, but is she the reason why female rappers are popping again.

Since breaking onto the rap scene in 2009, Nicki Minaj has dominated female rap and even won over some of the big boys in the game with whom she has collaborated with over the years including JAY-Z, Eminem, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne. At one point, she was the most heavily featured artist in the game, with every rapper on the planet wanting a verse from her. That demand for her service lead her to dominate the Billboard Hot 100 chart and now she is the female artist with the most entries on that chart in history after surpassing the great Aretha Franklin.

Achievements like those would take a lot of artists their entire career to get, but it took her a little less than a decade after Lil Wayne took a chance with her in the late 2000s after watching her rap on a DVD. During her recently cover story in XXL, Nicki Minaj opened up about her impact on hip hop culture over the years and what she said a lot of her fans will agree with her. She is among several other rappers featured on the Magazine’s 20th anniversary issue.

“My role in hip-hop has been super unique because when my first album came out, there had been so much time where there wasn’t a female rap album out that went platinum,” she said. “There wasn’t a big female rap presence right before I got in. So, my role was reintroducing the female rapper to pop culture. I don’t think we got that much credit. I think female rappers have always been dope and influential, but I think I sort of came in at a time where big business was paying attention, so I was able to capitalize off of a lot of deals and business ventures.”

Nicki Minaj is currently working on her new album which she hope will spawn her first Billboard Hot 100 number one hit and perhaps win her that long overdue Grammy award. Some fans will see her statement as a shot at Cardi B, but clearly she is speaking on female rap in general.

Rick Ross Responds To Birdman Epic Meltdown Over Lil Wayne Beef

Rick Ross has shared his reaction to Birdman’s epic meltdown on Instagram Live today over Lil Wayne’s beef.

Rozay was perhaps the main person who Birdman was speaking about in his expletive-laced rant. Basically he was telling the MMG Bawse not to speak on his business when he knows nothing about it. Last year, Rick Ross famously dissed the Cash Money Records honcho on an entire single “Idols Become Rivals.” Birdman never responded to the diss record at least not until now and Rozay thinks its too little too late.

“Boy, you a year late, and five years late paying that man his money,” Rick Ross said. “Pay that man his money. We know you ain’t right. Stop with the jokes, n***a. Bring that shit. Bring it. Have no fear. All that talkin’ sh*t, nuh-uh, all that shit don’t work round here baby. We’ll put you in check n***a, we’ll put you somewhere else.”

Birdman owes Lil Wayne millions and that was one of the topics of contention from Ross on his single “Idols Become Rivals.” Baby has made a name for himself not paying his artists and seems Lil Wayne has had enough and wants to leave Cash Money. He is also suing his longtime mentor and friend for $51 million. Rick Ross ended the video saying “Shut up and pay n***as” in reference to Lil Wayne. Let’s see if Baby will respond to this latest threat from Rozay and will he call his name just like the Bawse did. Maybe they can sit down and talk about this and resolve the issue like two grown men, but don’t hold your breath because it also means that Birdman will have to pay Weezy what he is owed.

Nevertheless, we all hope that this feud doesn’t get physical and stays on social media and in the music.

Big Tymers Birdman and Mannie Fresh Doing A Reunion Show

Birdman and Mannie Fresh, aka Big Tumers, are getting ready for their first reunion show.

The duo made a lot of hits between the late 1990s and early 2000s including “No. 1 Stunna,” “Still Fly,” “Ballin’,” and “This Is How We Do.” Big Tymers are getting ready to take you down memory lane with a 20th anniversary reunion concert on October 27th at The Maison. “20 years ago and now Ballers Ball #8 BIG TYMERS. Tickets on sale Today,” Mannie Fresh wrote on Instagram.

There is also some rumors about Birdman planning a Cash Money Reunion tour. There are no official confirmation about that tour from Baby and even if he would hope to make it a reality, he would have to do it without Lil Wayne. Birdman and Wayne are not on speaking terms and Weezy is even suing him for $51 million and regularly take shots at him and the label at his shows. These days everytime that Cash Money is in the news it’s almost certainly will remind us of Birdman and Lil Wayne bitter fallout and subsequent legal battle.

This Big Tymers reunion concert isn’t bothering Lil Wayne because he has been busy touring and recording new music. The concert will also see guest appearances from B.G., Juvenile, Hot Boys, and Bun-B.

20 years ago and now Ballers Ball #8 BIG TYMERS. Tickets on sale Today!!!! Www.maisonfrenchmen.com. ??????

Demi Lovato & Lil Wayne Drop New Song “Lonely” [Listen]

Demi Lovato teams up with Lil Wayne on a new single “Lonely” take a listen below.

The soulful joint is featured on the pop singer’s new album Tell Me You Love Me and was produced by DJ Mustard. While Lovato sings about loneliness and heartbreaks, Weezy comes through with a killer verse with a little Auto-Tune. “He felt just like you / His arms, his lips / His promises were just as smooth / His grip, it fit though I’ll admit that,” Lovato sings.

“B**ch can’t even say I miss you back over the fu**in’ text / Every time you slept over my pad, you over fu**in’ slept / Toni Braxton told me to breathe again, don’t hold no fu**in’ breath / Gave your ass directions to my heart, and your ass busted left,” Tunechi raps.

Demi Lovato previously collaborated with Lil Wayne on his R&B single “How To Love” and she has previously worked with female rappers like Iggy Azalea and Missy Elliott. Her new album Tell Me You Love Me also features her smash hit “Sorry Not Sorry” a song that she said JAY-Z helped her picked out as the first single off the project. “I played JAY-Z both songs,” Demi said in an interview with Noisey. “He said ‘Sorry Not Sorry’ because it was lighthearted. He was like, ‘A lot of people see you do the emotional thing all the time, but they don’t see you have fun!’ And I was like, ‘That’s such a good point.’ And [his opinion] kind of persuaded other people, too.”
