Universal Confirms Lil Waynes Rebirth December 15 Release Date

After much delay, Lil Wayne‘s highly-anticipated rock album, “Rebirth,” is now slated for a Dec. 15 release date according to the Universal Music Group website. The set will be packaged as a dual-disc along with the Young Money collective, “We Are Young Money.”

Originally scheduled for April 7, the first single off the set titled “Prom Queen,” produced by Infamous and Andrew “Drew” Correa, reached no. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100. Second single “Hot Revolver” debuted at No. 33 on the same tally.

In addition to Infamous and Correa, producers Cool and Dre and Develop also have tracks on “Rebirth,” while Fall Out Boy is featured. The latter comes after their first collaboration on Fall Out Boy’s 2008 release, “Folie à Deux.” Lenny Kravitz, Travis Barker and Young Money/Cash Money artist Drake also appear on the set.

Although the album is mostly rock inspired, with Lil Wayne playing guitar on most of the tracks, the leaked song, “Fix My Hat,” produced by Drew Money, is one of the few rap tracks that made it onto the “Rebirth” set.

Shouts to Billboard, and I know most of us all knew that “Rebirth” was coming out on December 15, but Universal has just recently confirmed that the album is dropping on Dec 15th along with Young Money‘s “We Are Young Money” as a dual-disc.

Also, help Lil Wayne get his “Lollipop” music video number 1 on Fuse’s Hip Hop Invasion by voting here.

    @carter yeahhh I don’t think Prom Queen & Hot Revolver will be on the album, when I uploaded these songs to youtube they didn’t get copyrighted, but those songs I listed above got copyrighted and removed from youtube, but when Prom Queen & hot Revolver Were new, they was copyrighted on You tube, but not anymore now.

    @weezyfer Off Course it will be more songs than 9, but these 9 songs I listed above are leaked Tracks that will be on the album
