Tha Carter IV is coming. While there may still be no set release date on Lil Wayne�s highly anticipated upcoming solo album, Mack Maine revealed to XXLMag.com that he and the team are closer to finishing the project than ever.
�I was in the studio all night workin� on this Carter IV,� the Young Money President told XXL. �We pretty much finished, to be honest; we probably need about two more songs. 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].�
As for features on the disc, aside from Nicki and Drake, Mack remained tight lipped, though he did hint at a surprise. �I�m gonna keep the features a surprise,� he said, before revealing that Weezy �just did something with somebody he never worked with, though.�
They recently shot a video, as well. �[Wayne] actually shot his first video with Hype Williams, which is big. We just finished a four-day video shoot, which is like a movie to me.�
As for Wayne�s post-jail sound, Mack pulled no punches. �Expect maturity and him showing his growth in the game,� he assured.
On the production tip, there will be both old and new names on the project. �A couple of new cats,� he continued. �This kid, his name�s Detail. A few people know him; he did �Sexy Can I� for Ray J. He�s gonna be relatively new, I guess, to some people. As far as big names, Swizz [Beatz] is on there.�
While Mack Mizzle did not give a release date for Tha Carter IV, he did confirm that Lil Wayne could finish the album by as soon as tonight. �Two or three more songs I�d say. We could be finished as of today, but we perfectionist so we still looking for one or two more sounds.� �Adam Fleischer with additional reporting by Tzvi Twersky
