Earlier, Drake told XXL Magazine that him and Lil Wayne have agreed to scrap their joint project, because it would just be compared to Kanye West and Jay-Z’s Watch The Throne album every time. Drizzy is still planning to do a collabo mixtape with Rick Ross though, so I am sure we will see quite a few YMCMB and MMG collaborations on there!

“Me and Wayne scrapped the idea of a collaboration album,” Drake told XXL. “We just agreed that it would be looked upon as… It would be sort of this competition with Watch The Throne. I feel like it would get caught in this whirlwind of hype. Wayne agreed. We just said, ‘If we do it, we’ll do it down the line. But right now is not the time.’”

In other Weezy news, MTV recently announced that Tunechi and Birdman will be performing “Y.U. Mad” live at the first annual MTV2 Sucker Free Awards in Miami. The show, which will be hosted by Sway Calloway, will air on Sunday, December 4th at 11PM EST at the LIV Fontainebleau in South Beach.

YMCMB’s DJ Khaled and Birdman appeared on BET’s 106 & Park yesterday to promote his We The Best Forever album that is available in stores now, and to debut his “It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over” music video. Even though there is no Tunechi, I’m sure most of you will still be interested in watching the above video… and they do speak on Tha Carter IV and confirm it will be out on August 29th. Baby even hands Khaled a plaque for his #1 single in the United States “I’m On One” featuring Drake, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne for going gold!

Above, Lil Wayne tells MTV that his Tha Carter IV album is “totally done” and will be released on August 29th (not August 22nd). Tunechi also confirms that his Sorry For The Wait mixtape will be dropping on July 12th or the 13th. He then goes onto to discuss his “How To Love” single:

“That song is just sweeping the world. It’s touching every woman, that’s what it was for,” Wayne said. “It was like Tupac had ‘Keep Ya Head Up’ and it was a message to women and little girls across the world just to keep your head up even though things are hard. That’s what my song was.”

‘Pac’s 1993 song became one of his biggest hits. On it, Shakur rapped about the plight of single mothers and battered women. For “How to Love,” Weezy also lends a sympathetic ear. “A lot of women don’t know how to love because there’s deep reasons for them not knowing how to love,” he explained. “And what I mean by deep reasons is deep and dark reasons. A lot of people don’t open up that can and I figured that I can open up that can of worms and see what happens.”
