New Orleans rap star Lil Wayne is in the studio grinding. The rap superstar has revealed he already has his heart set on dropping another album in his I Am Not a Human Being series.
Lil Wayne Reveals I Am Not a Human Being III
During a conversation with the Bumbo Rum Company Instagram account, Weezy disclosed that his next project would be I Am Not a Human Being III. The second installment of the series was released back in 2012.
“Right now, I’ve been working on I Am Not a Human Being. I did two songs on I Am Not a Human Being, my next solo album, I Am Not a Human Being III.”
Lil Wayne Sells Masters To Major Artists’ Music
Lil Wayne has also been making some business deals. New reports have revealed that in addition to selling his own masters, he also cashed in on his Young Money roster’s releases. Weezy reportedly sold the masters to some of Nicki Minaj and Drake’s music too. The sale took place back in June and also included music from former Young Money star Tyga. It included the entire catalog of music recorded on his Young Money label. The deal reportedly included almost all of Nicki’s releases and most of Drake’s releases from prior to 2018, which is when he founded his own OVO label.
“Story – Sparking major headlines this weekend, it was reported that Lil Wayne had sold his master recordings to Universal Music Group in a $100 million deal. Considering the fact that Bob Dylan sold his entire catalog for $300 million just weeks prior, many were surprised that Wayne didn’t push for more money. According to Music Business Worldwide, the reason why he settled for $100 million is actually quite clear.”
Lil Wayne Pleads Guilty
The hip-hop superstar is fighting against doing major time behind bars. Last week, Weezy F. Baby pleaded guilty to felony possession of a firearm before a judge in a virtual court hearing. Tunechi still faces ten years in prison after pleading guilty. While his trial result is still to come, he did get several drug charges dropped and now faces much less time behind bars than what was previously possible.
Court records: Lil Wayne will plead guilty to a weapons charge today in Miami federal court. More to come.
