Carter III Pushed Back Again!


It was recently confirmed that the long awaited album Tha Carter III from New Orleans rapper, Lil' Wayne has been pushed back.
Originally slated for a December 2007 release, the album was pushed back to May 2008 and now Weezy's rep confirmed that the album is pushed back once more and is due out in June. The alleged cover art hit the net earlier today and it looks pretty funny.
Tha Carter III will be the rapper's sixth solo project and his first solo release since 2005's Tha Carter II. It will also mark the end of Weezy's Tha Carter trilogy which included 2004's Tha Carter and 2005's Tha Carter II. The two albums were certified gold and platinum respectively.
The Carter III's first official single, "Lollipop," was recently released and is currently all over the radio.
When speaking of the album, Wayne told Billboard, "It's one of those albums people are really waiting on, so I made it so that whatever is on it will stick with you forever. I'm taking my time with it. And I'm giving artists I respect and people I want to do songs with -- not songs the label fixed -- an opportunity to collaborate."
Tha Carter III hits stores June 10th via Young Money/Cash Money/Universal Motown Recordings.
