Before going to prison, Lil Wayne released a new mixtape each week, so it was hard to miss him. Every year, since the release of his breakthrough Tha Carter III album, Lil Wayne has released a new album. His main method of promotion has been his mixtapes.
In the middle of his career, Lil Wayne took some time off and hit the mixtape scene. Among the many DJs he partnered with was DJ Drama and they recorded several mixtapes. It was on these mixtapes where people discovered he was one of the best in the game.
Even after propelling to the top, Lil Wayne has continued to flood the mixtape scene. But, since his return from prison, Lil Wayne has only released "6 Foot, 7 Foot" and his verse on "Fire Flame." This will all soon change.
Recently, Lil Wayne and DJ Drama teamed up and they have started recording his first post-prison mixtape and already have something for the fans. A snippet was released by Funkmaster Flex called "You & I," the complete song may not be released until later. But, it is likely Lil Wayne is off recording several songs for both his mixtape and Tha Carter IV. In addition to all of this, he is likely to be working on some videos too.
