After years of anticipation, Lil Wayne has finally revealed that Tha Carter VI will be released on June 6, 2025. The announcement comes after months of speculation and eager waiting from fans who have been craving the next installment in the legendary Carter series since the release of Tha Carter V in 2018.

The news arrived as part of a special announcement from the rap icon, and while details about the album remain scarce, the confirmation alone has been enough to ignite excitement across the hip-hop community. Given Wayne’s track record of delivering high-caliber projects, expectations for this release are sky-high.

Interestingly, Lil Wayne dropped this news amid discussions surrounding his absence from this year’s Super Bowl halftime show, a slot that many fans had speculated he might take. Despite rumors of a potential performance, the rapper clarified that he would not be involved, expressing nothing but respect for Kendrick Lamar, who is headlining the event.

In the lead-up to Tha Carter VI, Wayne has been making major moves in the industry. This Friday, February 7, he is set to release a remix of LiAngelo Ball’s viral hit, Tweaker, a track that has been making waves online. The remix is expected to showcase Wayne’s signature style and could provide insight into the sonic direction of the upcoming album.

Beyond his solo efforts, Wayne has also been actively supporting emerging artists, including his own son, Lil Novi. The rapper recently made a cameo in his 15-year-old son’s music video, showing his support and rapping along to Novi’s verses with pride.
