Young Money rapper Drake will reportedly team up with his mentor Cash Money lyricist Lil Wayne for an entire album. The currently untitled LP was apparently set in motion after Drake’s visit to New York’s Rikers Island to see Wayne and the two will start working on it after the New Orleans emcee is released.“I went up to Rikers, and me and Wayne agreed that there will be a Lil Wayne/Drake album,” revealed Drake to DJ Envy on MTV.
“There’s some things I’m excited for in my life -- I’m excited to go perform certain places -- but [this project] will probably be one of the most exciting things in my life, because we make music on a different level. It’s just so fun, so comfortable. A whole album? To think about all the things we can do, especially if we’re gonna do 15 songs. Me and him we don’t like to do 12, 13 [songs]. We want to do 15, 16. Yeah, Lil Wayne and Drake album.”
Wayne is also supposedly doing a collaborative album with rapper/singer T-Pain. Their LP has been in the works for a while now, but it was pushed back due to Wayne’s prison time behind a weapons possession charge.
In related news, Drake is scheduled to release his debut album, Thank Me Later, on the 15th. The highly anticipated album leaked onto the internet a few days ago, but is still expected to perform well on the charts.
