Artist & Song Information
"Mr. Carter" is a gem from Lil Wayne's multi-platinum and Grammy Award winning album, Tha Carter III. The song showcases the lyrical prowess of both Lil Wayne and Jay-Z, two legendary figures in the hip-hop industry. The title refers to the two artist’s shared surname "Carter." The track also includes contributions from Ali Shaheed Muhammad, an original member of iconic hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest.
"Prom Queen," was released on January 27, 2009 as the lead single from Lil Wayne’s seventh studio album, Rebirth. It was marketed as Lil Wayne's rock album, a departure from his established work in hip-hop, featuring a significant influence from rock and nu-metal sounds.
"I Am Not A Human Being," the title track from Lil Wayne's Platinum studio album. The song, like the album, showcases Lil Wayne's unique style and lyrical prowess, blending elements of hip-hop with his distinctive delivery and thematic content that often veers into the surreal and the boastful.
