XXL Mobile - News - Lil Wayne is "Highly Focused" on Tha Carter IV, David Banner Says
Lil Wayne once titled a track after Kobe Bryant. He's now drawing comparisons to the NBA superstar. David Banner, who spun Tha Carter III standout "La La," described the Young Money star to XXLMag.com as "highly focused," right now on his follow up album.
"Wayne is like Kobe Bryant right now," Banner told XXL. "You know, as Kobe gets older all he cares about is championships. Wayne is in that zone. He's highly focused and very sharp right now."
Young Money General Mack Maine told XXLMag.com yesterday (January 27) that Wayne is almost finished with the eagerly awaited Carter IV LP. "I was in the studio all night workin' on this Carter IV," he told XXL. "We got David Banner coming in tonight, so hopefully he'll come with somethin'. We try to make sure -- he kind of makes every album. He made Tha Carter III, and made [We Are Young Money]."
The Mississippi sound architect wouldn't confirm his collaboration with Weezy last night.
Aside from Banner, other producers reportedly on board for Tha Carter IV include Swizz Beatz, Detail, Boi-1da, and Kanye West. Carter IV is tentatively slated for April 2011. --
