Lil Wayne Sets Tha Carter III Release Date

Lil Wayne has already released the Static-featuring 'Lollipop' single and now he's given a solid concrete release date for the eagerly awaited album, Tha Carter III.

The official follow-up to 2005's platinum-selling Tha Carter II (seeing as the full-length Leak mixtape never surfaced), will arrive on May 13th through Young Money / Cash Money / Universal Motown.

Details are fairly scarce and hush-hush, but if rumours are anything to go by, Tha Carter III will see guest appearances from Kanye West, The Game, Nelly Furtado, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, Birdman and Justin Timberlake.

Producers are said to include Timbaland, David Banner and Swizz Beatz.
