Mack Maine recently chopped it up with Complex to share some details about Lil Wayne‘s brand new album, Funeral, which you can read in full below.

During their interview, Mack confirmed that Weezy was more involved with this project, they have already shot a music video for “Mama Mia” that is being directed by Mike Ho, there was a feature from DaBaby that didn’t make Funeral because of a clearance issue, and there was even a collaboration with Young Thug that was left off the album because Thug wanted to record fresh vocals.

The Young Money President also revealed why Funeral was a few hours late with its release, how he picked the tracklist for the project, how their relationship with XXXTentacion‘s family developed, why Tunechi first thought 21 Savage was a group, his vision for YM this decade, who is currently on the record label, Nicki Minaj‘s upcoming album, and much more!

A couple of days ago, a lot of the songs (20 in total) from Lil Wayne‘s original Tha Carter V album surfaced online. I was not going to make an article about this, but too many people are hitting me up asking about it, so I’ve decided to do what I did when the Velvet Sessions project leaked online.

Due to copyright laws, I cannot post the tracks on this website, but for those who have heard the music, I will list what has changed on each record. If you recall back to 2014, CV was originally due to drop back then, but with the long lawsuit against Birdman and Cash Money Records, Wayne ended up re-recording the album and releasing it in 2018.

The full versions of “Mute” featuring a dope verse from Big Sean and “No Brainer” featuring a dope verse from Flow are also included in this new leak. I always tell people that Tunechi‘s best music in my personal opinion seems to be more his leaked music over official releases and hearing songs like “Life Of Mr. Carter“, “Scottie Pippen” and the hilarious “Form Good” confirms this statement even more for me.

You can check out exactly which tracks leaked from the original Tha Carter 5 project below! From the tentative tracklist we received in 2014, this now just leaves “Start This Shit Off Right” with Christina Milian and Mannie Fresh, “She Said Better Get ‘Em“, “Grindin” with Jeezy and Young Thug, “Brad Pitt” with B.o.B, “Mano Y Mano” with Gudda Gudda, and “Murda” with Flow as unreleased. If you have heard the OG C5 album, how did you like it and did you prefer it more than the official version we got nearly a year ago?

Last week, an unofficial Lil Wayne project leaked online titled Velvet Sessions, which I did not post on this website for obvious reasons! The project included 9 brand new Wayne songs, plus “Zero“. The majority of them were recorded for Velvet.

If you recall, Mack Maine announced in early 2017 that Weezy will be releasing an album called Velvet, while a Young Money affiliate also hinted at it dropping last year. However, when another Velvet leftover track leaked this summer titled “Deep Sleep“, we got news that the album had been scrapped and will no longer be released.

There is one beautiful song from the Rebirth era on the project that needs to be released officially somehow called “Little Girl’s Eyes“. It is a record from Mr. Carter about his daughter Reginae Carter that samples Lenny Kravitz’ track of the same title. We actually heard a snippet in September that at first we thought could of been “Famous” off Tha Carter V.

Also on the project is a CD quality version of Tunechi‘s freestyle from the Young Money cypher with Karen Civil TV that took place back in 2015. This song is named “HitMan” and it was recorded for Sorry 4 The Wait 2. The intro on Velvet Sessions, which is called “Where My Old Lady“, includes lyrics from Tune talking about “working hard on Tha Carter V”. Lastly, the outro track titled “Who” is a Dedication 6 leftover.

The songs “Weak” and “Tevin” sample SWV’s “Weak” and Tevin Campbell’s “I’m Ready“. For those of you that have managed to hear Lil Wayne‘s unofficial Velvet Sessions, what was your favorite track off the project?

Trippie Redd has shared the official tracklist for his upcoming Life’s A Trip album, which will be released this Friday (August 10th).

The “Hell Rain” collaboration from Trippie, Lil Wayne and HoodBaby did not make the tracklisting and so Hood took to his Instagram to say he will leak it “real soon”.

Redd then commented on the Instagram post to reveal the Cardiak-produced song will be appearing on the deluxe edition of Life’s A Trap, but there is currently no release date for that.

We have basically already heard “Hell Rain” through numerous snippets, but hopefully we get to hear the CDQ version real soon!
