Sevn Thomas recently sat down with Complex for an interview about producing beats for big music artists like Lil Wayne, JAY Z, Beyonce, Drake, Travis Scott, Mac Miller, Nicki Minaj, and more.

During their conversation, Sevn explained why he is super-excited to have a beat on Tunechi‘s Tha Carter V album, which is “Let It Fly” featuring Travis, and how it’s an honor and privilege because C5 will be looked back in time as Tune‘s first album after Cash Money Records.

The producer also revealed he used inspiration from DMX’s “Let Me Fly” song for creating the “Let It Fly” instrumental. You can watch what Thomas said about working with Weezy in the video after the jump below (head to the 9:10 mark)!

4 years later and new billboards for C5 have started to pop up; this time around the Manhattan area in New York City (see below).

The promo covers include a red V on a black background with a white goat in the corner. If anymore billboards for Wayne‘s upcoming album pop up, I will update this post!

Earlier this month, we got word that Lil Wayne played Tha Carter V for Harvey Soto (who said it “sounds crazy“), and now it looks like Wayne has played his forthcoming album for another professional skateboarder.

Shane O’Neill took to social media to write “C5 is coming out soon. For real” along with a goat emoji and the picture above of Weezy doing a BS Wallride skate trick in Los Angeles that was captured on camera by Jake Darwen.

In related news, an “unnamed source” confirmed to DJ Booth last month that Tunechi‘s Tha Carter V project is “tentatively slated for release later this year”. When do you think Tune will be dropping C5?
