Lil Wayne Didn’t Rush His New Album
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap,
The "Drop the World" rapper recently completed the second in his series, and admits its predecessor - released in 2010 - was rushed as he was jailed for possession of a weapon.
"I Am Not A Human Being II, that's what I'm workin' on right now, actually I'm finished. The difference between this album and the last I Am Not a Human Being would be the music wasn't rushed. Last time the music was rushed because I had to take that eight-month vacation on that island so we had rushed the music, but this time we didn't rush the music."
Wayne spent eighth months in Rikers Island prison in New York over the weapons charge, during which time I am Not a Human Being was released. Wayne has previously said he wrote an album of love songs during his time inside, although he warned, "It's my version of love songs. And what I mean by 'my version of love songs' is that they're not saying, 'I love you.' They're saying...you know."
I am Not a Human Being II will be preceded by a single, "My Homies Still," but has no set release date at present.

Lil Wayne to face copyright infringement lawsuit

Lil Wayne is to be handed a court summons in jail. The rapper - currently incarcerated at New York’s Riker’s Island prison on weapons charges - faces a fresh legal battle after his expected release on November 4, as a producer has launched a copyright infringement lawsuit against him.
Michael ‘Mali Boi’ Bradford is claiming for unpaid royalties he believes he is due for creating the beat to Wayne’s single ‘Mrs. Officer’. He says he came up with the rhythm five years before it was reworked by Deezle, who is credited as the producer of the track. Deezle is also reportedly launching legal action, saying he has not been paid royalties for the 2008 single, from Wayne’s breakthrough ‘Tha Carter III’ album.
