Lil Wayne’s seventh installment in his Dedication mixtape series is on the way. On Sunday (Sept. 27) DJ Drama celebrated the rapper’s 38th birthday by announcing that Weezy’s Dedication 7 will arrive sometime in 2021.
“Happy Birthday @liltunechi ‼️ D7… 2021,” DJ Drama wrote in the caption of a throwback photo of him and the New Orleans native. This forthcoming installment will be the follow-up to 2017’s Dedication 6, which was released on Christmas Day.
The highly-lauded mixtape series, hosted by DJ Drama, started back in April 2005 and features Tunechi’s remixes to popular hits. However, Wayne will be releasing No Ceilings 3 first. The rapper will also be prepping for Tha Carter VI. “Carter VI coming soon, but I got No Ceilings coming first, No Ceilings 3,” Wayne recently said, as Rap-Up reports.
Over the weekend, Weezy dropped a deluxe edition of Tha Carter V that features 10 new tracks including collaborations with Raekwon and 2 Chainz.
