Its official, Tha Carter VI, Lil Wayne‘s highly anticipated album, is finally on its way.
The rapper made the announcement on the final day of Drake‘s October World Weekend festival, where he joined The artist and Nicki Minaj for a Young Money reunion. “I’m working on Tha Carter VI,” he told the crowd, “coming soon.”
During the show, the screen on stage also stated that Weezy “had some troubles at the border,” but “Luckily, Drake runs the border.” Later, Drizzy gave Wayne flowers and called him “the most selfless man on planet earth,” sharing, “You’re the most important man to each and every one us.”

Wayne teased Tha Carter VI as early as July 2020, telling Variety that his “favorite Carter album is the next one.” A month later, he doubled down on that statement, telling ESPN on August 15 that“[Tha] Carter VI is coming soon, but I got No Ceilings coming first. No Ceilings 3.“
