Cita’s World.
It’s the about that time. After being left in dark for weeks, Weezy revealed the cover and date for his highly anticipated album Tha Carter V. Album hits retail the day of the NBA season opener: October 28.
Sorry but that cover is awful… they been getting progressively worse, and since Tha Carter III they been repeating that same basic Illmatic / Ready to Die kinda formula… no originality, just like Wayne’s music nowadays… still, I’m hoping he’s got a couple tricks up his sleeve, enough for a few decent verses / songs.

That I am not a human being II was a good cover but the album was his worst for sure!
Why does this cover look like something I’d see in the free user submitted section of Datpiff in 2007?
lol
I seen a pic of beanie Sigel saying he home u know if its true?
Seen it too…Not sure. FEDS can’t confirm
YOU USELESS TOOL!!!! SO MUCH FOR YOUR JOURNALIST NETWORK TIES!!!! HA!!!! YOU AIN’T SHIT!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
he knows..
haha thought the same shit – the bright blue and white totally don’t go with the red color scheme smh
OH SHIT LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I think wayne copies tyler the creater a bit tho….look at how he dresses and acts
I thought Tyler the Creator said that Lil Wayne was one of his favorite rappers and a big influence
Well that’s what I got from it lol
Does anybody realize that waynes all the top things on rapradar lmao js thats that dude
they know this shit aint gon sell..this is the white flag..
MARIO CHALMERS IS WAYNE’S DADDY??!!! IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
………HA!!!! WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THIS WACK ALBUM!!!! HOPEFULLY THIS OVERRATED NIGGA STANDS BY HIS WORD AND RETIRES!!!! GET ‘EM THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
When have you ever known Wayne to stand by his word? He and Birdman are infamous for just SAYING shit for publicity.
HOPE IT FALLS THROUGH THIS TIME!!!! FUCK THAT WACK NIGGA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
lol Mario Chalmers
I have a feeling the album will sound like the cover. Terrible.
They need to airbrush his moms a little better….
I think he should have used his first hot boy picture, when he had the mini fro.
He not gone sell a mill the first week, if drake can’t do it. 450-650k which is great with the kind of deal cash money got…
I’m wondering about nicki… Seems like she can’t catch that buzz like back in her Barbie days…. I really think that Grammy performance hurt her…
lol thats terrible
Damn.. that’s awful.
Carter III and IV did the baby look professionally, but this is just weak, reminds me of the first time I ever used photoshop.
Very unimpressed. Goes to show even more that Tez Bryant is no kind of manager, along with single choice, useless pushbacks, and the direction he let wayne go after c3, I’m convinced even if Wayne came with the worst idea ever, he’s got (and had) too many yes men around him and that’s why the music and creativity has suffered.
I’m still Trynna figure out who signed off on “Rebirth” and “I Am Not A Human Being” to be released
wayne is at a point where he can do whatever the fuck he wants, that simple, buy it or don’t, his core fan base aint going no where
Got the fame & went lame.
Album cover makes no sense whatsoever damn
Every rapper wants to have an ILLMATIC moment – it’s so fucking sad.
wayne be having the shittiest covers hands down. like why tat the child we know that’s you
Carter V will be push back. Because ymcmb know for pushing lil wayne albums.
This makes Kay Slay’s mixtape covers look professional.
Oh boy. Lol. I think he is picking his nose.
Yeah, it’s how I figured out THAT person was Wayne.
Lol Wayne a trip.
Wow if you look real close he has a tat in the middle of his forehead.
is you blind? you dont gotta look close at all to see those ridiculous face tattoos.
Yall niggas really excited for this shit?
Without Drake in the mix Wayne is not gonna sell. Name one hit single on Tha Carter V without a Drake feature and “Krazy” is not a hit thus proving my point. Wayne is washed and has been for awhile. At this point Drake is carrying everybody in YM on his back.
Lil Wayne has a big following he will sell, but his quality music after C3 is trash, I predict he will sell over 400,000 first week. Drake is not carrying everybody in YM on his back LIl Wayne still sells more than Drake.
Say what you want about weezy but that man been selling records before Drake came aboard. Now I do think Drake introduced him to a new demographic but that dude been on for almost two decades!
With that said he was third best out of the hotboys. but when that nigga was a yg he could spit! Period! Lil Wayne is the best child rapper of all time. Back in the get it how u live days youngin was a BEAST!
This “Wayne vs Drake” tour is not a coincidence Wayne needs to garner a buzz somehow. Think about it.
Is that Baby?
Really not as bad as everyone is making it out to be
Me real talk….. Just tapped on ur me and I seen the exact shit that mr gay talk said..
Double tap this Stan name tell me ain’t saying the same as mr fake talk…
Pussy!!!
you look like a clown in this situation
10/8/14
That can’t be the cover shit look lame ass fuck LMAO I don’t have high hope for C5.
DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER BUT…..MY NIGGA WTF IS THIS!
Not feeling dusse that much but everything else really grew on me so im excited for the c5.
Sounding better than c4 thats forsure.
Hi Young ppl let me borrow a min of your time to talk to you for a sec.because this is a hip hop site I know most of you are young ppl.im 33 yrs old grew up in South Baton Rouge am a white male with a beautiful African American wife.It heart breakens me what’s going on in Ferguson Missouri.The media will spin the story two ways to have you beleive this side or that.While the main problem and the same problem across America is a population in Ferguson 80% black and a 54 police unit with just 2 black police officers.And numerous black communities around the country being policed by predominately white officers who don’t even relate to the community most of the cops don’t even live in that town.What if in Mayberry.Wisscousin.Kentucky.etc where predominately white ppl stay what if we replace the officers there with black police then maybe white America will wit essential the strong hold of power they exood on black americans..My opinion to why you see so many young black men rioting and in rage.You can only live in a neighborhood being policed and swarm by “great whites” for so long before you start to rebel..What the real issue is lack communities need to stand up especially in the south and ask for a police force that reflect there community and who also have a CONNECTION with them.Sorry if I waisted time to talk about what’s really going on in the world other than talk about hip hop..#boosietakeoversep23rd
I think the covers dope. It’s got a really cool dark eerie type vibe. Reminds me of the covers I grew up to in the 90s like a three 6 mafia cover or something. I think it’s ill.
not even close. i hope your being sarcastic.
Not quite but i see what you talkin bout
I JUST WANNA TELL LIL WAYNE I WANNA SUCK HIS DICK AND SHOW HIM HOW GOOD FUCKIN’ A DUDE’S ASS CAN FEEL TOO!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Hahahaha Austin’s comment had me weak!!!! I dig this cover tho, but like someone said that blue doesn’t go well with the red background, I have a feeling IF their is an alternate cover it will be dope too tho
I deserve an article too. Can you guys please thumb this comment up to help me. My music is too good for no recognition http://m.soundcloud.com/studio15pro/new-nigga-by-marz
Did you guys at Rap Radar get paid to have Lil Wayne posts as your top 5 couple days in a row?? Everyone is talking about the shooting and death of Michael Brown. I can’t see how Lil Wayne would have the top 5… same thing as when 50 cent had the top 5 posts a month back..
Sit yo $5 ass down ‘fore i make change
Wayne need to pour up, light up, sniff, shoot up something cus he spittin that wack shit for the bitches n kiddies. Aint no grown man fuckin wit that
why did you guys take down the j cole record though?
PAYOLA!
I think fans trip off covers way too much. A lot of yall gotta be graphic designers mad that he chose that as the cover. Your not going to listen to the dam cover get a grip.
And Im a Die Hard Nas Fan but Nas cant exclusively hold the rights to using a pic from his childhood forever.
And where was the uproar when Kendrick dropp the MAAD city Artwork?
Dorian is way better than this nigga.
I must say, this cover is trash. =|
