Lil Wayne debuts new album at MTV Video Music Awards
Lil Wayne made MTV Video Music Awards history last night when he digitally released his new album just after the awards show. Tha Carter IV was available on iTunes and Amazon.com for several hours before the physical album hit the shelves today.
“I am extremely excited to be the first artist to utilize such an amazing idea. I hope that I can open the door for others,” said Weezy, who is the first artist in the shows history to use the ceremony as free publicity for an album that debuts the same day.
Tha Carter IV, Weezy’s ninth studio album, features collaborations from Busta Rhymes, Cory Gunz, Drake and Rick Ross. A total of four singles hit the airwaves before the album dropped: “6 Foot 7 Foot,” “John,” “How to Love” and “She Will.”
