It looks like Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter 6 is on the way. During the Young Money Reunion concert in Toronto on Saturday night, Weezy confirmed that he’s working on the sixth installment of Tha Carter series. In an Instagram video that circulated on Saturday, August 6, the multiple grammy-winner can be seen standing onstage with fellow Young Money superstars Drake and Nicki Minaj at the Young Money Reunion concert in Toronto, and as they prepare to close out the show, Weezy F. Baby walks near the front of the stage and yells out, “I’m working on Tha Carter VI coming soon” and drops the microphone.
There was also a still image that flashed on the video screen that simply read, “THA CARTER VI” while everyone exited the stage. This isn’t the first time Wayne has announced that he’s working on Tha Carter VI album. Back in July of 2020, the New Orleans rap veteran hinted that another project was on the way.
