In the video above, DJ Khaled speaks to MTV about his upcoming single from his We The Best Forever album dropping on the Cash Money label. The track will feature Lil Wayne, and Khaled says his verse is “amazing”.

His next project is his first for Cash Money Records, and he’s looking to kick things off with a lead single that would put “The Matrix Reloaded” opening scene to shame.

“I don’t want to tell you the name of the artist yet,” he told Mixtape Daily. “I want people to be surprised. But I have my first single.”

“I can tell you for a fact that me and Wayne did work together,” Khaled said. “I’m not gonna lie, he’s on it. We’ll let that one go.”

“When I work with Wayne, I always get the most classic verses, like ‘We Taking Over,’ ” Khaled said. “And this verse with my new one, it’s … I’m not even gonna lie: It’s amazing.

“It’s one of them anthems that I do,” he added. “The streets are gonna embrace it on another level. When you hear it you’re gonna be like, ‘This is what I’m talking about.’ It’s that anthem, I got them.”

Birdman tells Music Mix that after chilling and partying with his family, Lil Wayne will go straight to the studio when he is released from Rikers Island in four days. Baby also says that Weezy will be working on his Tha Carter IV album (hopefully Dedication 4 too), and we should be looking for Like Father, Like Son Part 2 to drop on Father’s Day weekend.

“Me knowing Wayne, he’s going into the studio,” Cash Money label head Baby (a.k.a. Birdman) tells the Music Mix. “He hasn’t been able to rap for months. I think after seeing the family, popping a few bottles, it’s back to basics. Family first, that’s what we believe in, that’s what we’re loyal to. After that, I think the same day he comes home, he’s going to go straight to the studio.”

Wayne’s first priority when he enters the booth for the first time since March will be working on his long-promised project Tha Carter IV. Baby expects that album to arrive in the first quarter of 2011, though no release plans have been finalized.

Baby is also looking forward to working with Wayne on a sequel to Like Father, Like Son, the collaborative album that the mentor and protégé released in 2006. “We’re planning on putting that out Father’s Day weekend,” he says. So what should fans expect to hear next June? “Just me and Wayne being us, the father-son thing. We’re bringing that Cash Money/Young Money sound, that traditional hard-body rap, the music that we do together — that gangsta shit, straight up.”

Eminem will debut his music video for “No Love” featuring Lil Wayne tomorrow (Sep 30) at 7:56PM EST on MTV. As soon as the video premieres, we will post it up here on LilWayneHQ for you to watch.

After the jump, you can watch a video of Birdman speaking with MTV about dropping Like Father, Like Son Part 2 with Weezy in 2011, and producer STREETRUNNER speaking with VIBE about working on the I Am Not A Human Being album.
