Lil Wayne will release two albums before the end of the year.
Birdman, owner of Cash Money Records, announced that both Weezy’s rock album The Rebirth and another rap album, Tha Carter 4 will hit stores before 2010. Whether this is true remains to be seen, especially with the amount of pushing back Wayne albums tend to get.
Finishing up though, Birdman claimed: “We’re looking to take over the game completely, flood the market. The Grammys are ours next year.”
MGMT will be called Congratulations.
There are no other details on the record but you can check out the title track being played live below to get hyped:

Vans ruler Jasper Jones inspired me to write this post tonight. Nomeansno have arguably been the leaders of the Canadian hardcore scene since 1979 when the Wright brothers (Rob and John) who play bass and drums formed the backbone of the success with a drum and bass show until Andy Kerr stepped in to take over some guitar and vocal duties.
10 years later they came up with the incredible album Wrong which is our favourite here at the office and we have tonight found out that it is to be re-recorded for release in 2010. Watch video of the tightness of these 3 dudes with Two Lips and another track Rags & Bones live from back in 1990. They are still this good to this very day, don’t miss them if they swing into your town and look out for the new version of this classic soon.
