Lil Wayne's Rock Dreams Halted?
Well, amid the lukewarm response from fans, Lil Wayne is putting his rock-inspired album Rebirth on hold. According to MTV.com, a rep from the label stated that the album's release date is now TBA. The album was supposed to drop on May 19th, which would've pitted him up against Eminem and we all know Eminem is going to do some major damage on the albums chart this year. Weezy's debut single from the album, "Prom Queen," has been out for about a month and is currently #15 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Honestly, I don't think the album is going to come out. I'm sure his label is expecting killer sales like last year and when they saw "Prom Queen" was not getting the buzz they expected, they had to rethink things a little. Supposedly, Rolling Stone reviewed the album and it didn't get a good response. However, Wayne's manager stated that the album wasn't finished at the time and tracks were still in the production phase. So what's next for Lil Wayne? Tha Carter IV? If he wants to maintain his fanbase, I think he needs to proceed with Tha Carter IV and forget about the rock stuff right now.
