Lil Wayne's youngest son, Lil Novi, put his own spin on Playboi Carti's "Like Weezy" track off the new album MUSIC.

Earlier this week, Lil Novi shared a snippet of himself rapping over the song, leading to polarized reactions. Some felt Wayne's 15-year-old has a future in rap, while others felt he should've sat this one out.

"Not bad for a little kid lmao," one person tweeted. Another said, "Yeah, tell this n***a go to class."

Someone else wrote, "Nah he would carry Carti they did a ft together."

Carti dropped his new album on March 14 through AWGE and Interscope Records. It has a whopping 30 tracks and guest features from Travis ScottThe WeekndKendrick Lamar, Jhené Aiko, Skepta, Future, Lil Uzi Vert, Ty Dolla Sign, and Young Thug.

The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, giving Carti his second chart-topper and third top 10 album, as his debut album Die Lit landed at No. 3 in 2018. Carti added four more tracks to the album earlier this week and dropped a visualizer for "FOMDJ."

Meanwhile, the Atlanta native had an issue with Billboard's report of the first-week sales for MUSIC. According to Billboard, MUSIC debuted atop the 200 chart with 298,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S.

But Carti tweeted that his third studio album actually debuted at No. 1 with 320,000 equivalent album sales and thanked the Kurrco platform on X for sharing his post.
