In a very recent article (2/19/2009) from MTV: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1605400/20090219/lil_wayne.jhtml ; There are 2 new pieces of information: Wayne's rock album Rebirth now has a set date for May 19, 2009. Wayne has also reiterated that Tha Carter IV will be released in 2009 before the holidays and he is also working on a Hot Boys Reunion LP and Young Money Entertainment LP. |
|||
Quote FTA: "In addition to Rebirth, Wayne is still working on Tha Carter IV, the Hot Boys reunion LP and an album featuring all the artists on his Young Money label, including Mack Maine, Jae Millz, Kid Kid and Nicki Minaj." |
|||
Please make these changes ASAP. |

== Rock? == |
|||
The classification of Lil Wayne as a rock artist is sketchy at best. Listening to these new "rock" songs, you realize that all he's really done is replace a synth line with a guitar line. The drums are also louder than the guitar (Traditionally rock is more centered on the guitar, with the drums providing rhythm.) To legitimately be called a rock album, there would need to be a lead guitar in the songs, not the sole rhythm guitar that is featured in Prom Queen. Even the "solos" are obviously just reworked synth parts. The relative lack of guitar in Hot Revolver is also questionable. At one point the normal drums are even abandoned for a traditional hip hop drum loop. Classifying Lil Wayne as a rock artist because of this album would require a re-evaluation of what rock is, and would probably require the addition of acts such as Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys to the growing catalog of "rock artists." <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/71.251.170.19|71.251.170.19]] ([[User talk:71.251.170.19|talk]]) 21:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

While I agree that Rebirth is a little less than most "Rock albums" out there, I'd have to disagree with not placing "rock" as a genre he does. "Rebirth" has been mentioned as a rock album in almost every publication that mentions it, therefore even if it's something less than say a Red Hot Chili Peppers album it still deserves it's title as a rock album.

Just cuz the media says some band or artist is a certain genre, it isnt nessecerily true... e.g. when the media says pop-punk bands are emo, which they obviously aren't... just cuz you write articles for a magazine or sutch, it doesn't make you capable of dictating which genre is what... the reason the media has said his latest album is rock, is because theese articles has been written by hip-hoppers, who doesn't know shit about what rock actually is... if you can find one single rock-magazine which says the album is rock, then it IS rock... sorry about my bad english...--[[User:Arneandre|Arneandre]] ([[User talk:Arneandre|talk]]) 21:41, 22 November 2009 (UTC) |

On the [[Lil]] disambiguation page, everyone but him has an apostrophe. Is there a good reason Dwayne Carter is the exception? Thanks [[User:Rockingbeat|Rockingbeat]] ([[User talk:Rockingbeat|talk]]) 02:41, 20 September 2009 (UTC) |

: Because that's the way his name is officially typeset. [[User:Andrewlp1991|Andrewlp1991]] ([[User talk:Andrewlp1991|talk]]) 06:10, 20 September 2009 (UTC) |
|||
Yes... Because of the fact that Dwayne Carter is a rapper, he chooses his "rap name" to be Lil Wayne. If he wants to not use an apostrophe that is his choice... You can't tell the man how to spell his name. That's why. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Brewdog2222|Brewdog2222]] ([[User talk:Brewdog2222|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Brewdog2222|contribs]]) 04:06, 30 September 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

== Claims to have shot himself with a gun? == |
|||
I'm a little concerned over the sentance stating "He also claimed to have shot himself with a gun at that age." I recently saw his behind the music and they talked about it with policement being interviewed stating that this definatly happened. So I don't know why this wording of it appears as it does.Further more it's mention is almost trivial here. While I don't know how appropriate it would be to denote a whole paragraph to this incident, it definatly is worth a couple of sentances.
