Lil Wayne once titled a track after Kobe Bryant. He’s now drawing comparisons to the NBA superstar. David Banner, who spun Tha Carter III standout “La La,” described the Young Money star to XXLMag.com as “highly focused,” right now on his follow up album.
“Wayne is like Kobe Bryant right now,” Banner told XXL. “You know, as Kobe gets older all he cares about is championships. Wayne is in that zone. He’s highly focused and very sharp right now.”
Young Money General Mack Maine told XXLMag.com yesterday (January 27) that Wayne is almost finished with the eagerly awaited Carter IV LP. “I was in the studio all night workin’ on this Carter IV,” he told XXL. “We got David Banner coming in tonight, so hopefully he’ll come with somethin’. We try to make sure — he kind of makes every album. He made Tha Carter III, and made [We Are Young Money].”
The Mississippi sound architect wouldn’t confirm his collaboration with Weezy last night.
Aside from Banner, other producers reportedly on board for Tha Carter IV include Swizz Beatz, Detail, Boi-1da, and Kanye West. Carter IV is tentatively slated for April 2011. — Henry Adaso



WEEEEZYYYYY!!! Im so hyped for this album. Lil Wayne is tha best rapper alive…BUT I CANT WAIT UNTIL APRIL!!! RELEASE IT IN FEBRUARY OR MARCH
I DONT GET WHAT THE BIG DEAL WITH THIS DUDE IS? EVERYONE KEEPS ACTING LIKE THA CARTER 4 IS REALLY GOING TO MATTER OR THAT HE HASNT PUT OUT ALBUMS SINCE THEN? THE DUDE HAS FALLEN OFF THE MAP, REBIRTH AND THAT I AM STILL HUMAN GARBAGE HAVE BOTH BEEN RELEASE AND BARELY WENT GOLD! IS THE HIP-HOP CULTURE SO LOW THIS IS WHAT WE GOT TO HYPE UP?! I WOULD BE MORE EXCITED ABOUT A JAY-Z/KANYE WEST COLLABORATION THAN THIS SHIT!
wayne knew alot of people wouldnt be feeling rebirth and inahb was filled with leftover tracks. tha carter’s are his “real” albums if you will
Rebirth was an experimental side project, we all knew that was going to fail. I Am Not A Human Being wasn’t a full album, it was an EP and was full of leftover songs that his manager put together. Wayne was barely involved with the creation of it.
The reason why people are looking forward to Tha Carter IV is because it’s going to be his first “real” album in several years.
