Lil Wayne celebrates his decades of hits on the new I Am Music compilation, out Friday.
The compilation, which spans Weezy’s career and marks the first-ever release of its kind for the artist, opens with the recently released “Kant Nobody” featuring a sample from the late DMX. This is followed in the sequencing by the 2008 Tha Carter III hit “Lollipop.”
Also featured on the 18-track project are “A Milli,” “Drop the World” with Eminem, “She Will” with Drake, “Blunt Blowin,” “Fireman,” “Mr. Carter” with Jay-Z, and more.

The comp arrives ahead of the kickoff of Wayne’s Welcome to Tha Carter tour, which begins next week at the Fillmore in Minneapolis. All told, Wayne is set to hit 28 different cities on the tour with additional planned stops including New York, Atlanta, Birmingham, Nashville, Austin, San Francisco, and much more. See the tour’s full routing below.
Wayne is also dropping Welcome To Tha Carter Tour merch that will be available to purchase in-person at tour stops. The collection, which was created in collaboration between Wayne and Black-owned, ATL-based brand RGB, includes t-shirts, hats, tote bags, lighters, and more. Check out some pics from the collection below.
In February, Wayne spoke with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1 about the just-released “Kant Nobody” and the ambition behind the upcoming sixth entry in his Tha Carter series.
As Weezy said at the time, he “never even imagined” the series would still be going strong so many years after the original dropped.
“I can’t believe we’re at Carter VI,” he told Lowe. “My fans know I give my all. Go listen to my last feature and know it’s gonna be a thousand times better than that.”
For now, no official release date has been set. In the meantime, enjoy I Am Music.
