Lil Wayne Drops Tha Carter VI Featuring Big Sean, 2 Chainz, MGK, and More

Lil Wayne fans, it’s finally here. Tha Carter VI has officially dropped, and it’s everything fans were hoping for after nearly seven years of waiting. The sixth chapter in the Tha Carter series dropped with little fanfare but packed a heavy punch. With 19 tracks and a mix of new and legendary features, Wayne proves once again he’s not stepping down from the throne anytime soon.

A Lowkey Rollout with Big Impact

Wayne didn’t flood social media with teasers or promo. Instead, he played it smooth. The only pre-release single, “The Days,” premiered less than a day ago during an NBA Finals campaign. Now that the full project is out, fans are diving headfirst into a mix of introspective verses, hard-hitting beats, and unexpected collaborations.

The tracklist opens with “King Carter” and moves through an eclectic journey that blends Wayne’s signature flow with some surprising creative moves.

Features That Cross Genres and Generations

This album is not just another rap record. The guest list includes BigXThaPlug, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, MGK, Kodak Black, and even Wayne’s own son, Kameron Carter. But what really turns heads is “Maria,” which features Andrea Bocelli and Wyclef Jean. That’s right—Wayne brought opera to Tha Carter VI.

Jelly Roll, Mannie Fresh, and Lil Novi add more flavor across the tracklist. “Alone In The Studio With My Gun” stands out with raw storytelling and a haunting hook from MGK and Kodak.

A Timeline That Stretches Back Two Decades

The first Tha Carter dropped back in 2004. Since then, each album has added a new layer to Wayne’s legacy. Now in 2025, Tha Carter VI lands as the latest milestone. His last solo studio album, Tha Carter V, came out on his 36th birthday in 2018. Between then and now, fans got the prelude mixtape Tha Fix Before Tha VI in 2023 and his joint album Welcome 2 Collegrove with 2 Chainz.

Tha Carter VI is out everywhere now, streaming on all major platforms.
