This was supposed to be titled The Carter III: Rebirth, but I guess Universal didn't want people getting confused so they just named it Rebirth. Lil' Wayne said this album isn't The Carter IV. It's supposed to be a segue between III and IV. This is basically part two of III.

This is the "rock album" he was talking about. Didnt a album just come out? Geesh It'll be a year between albums. Rappers don't usually take very long between albums. Plies has been releasing albums about every 6 months.

A rock album? Very interesting; this could be incredible or a complete mess. I hope it's the former.

this could be incredible or a complete mess. Totally agree. But even if this album sucks we'll still get a new Carter later on, so it's no big deal.

I wonder if Kevin Rudolf will help produce. Anyway, it should be great.

It's HOT! I was expecting to sound more poppy like "Let It Rock", but it's harder. I wonder if Rock stations will play it.

I'd be surprised if the album didn't enter at #1 with huge sales, especially since it's being billed as the 2nd part to Tha Carter III.

ROFL. This is exactly the mess I expected. It sounds as if rock's evolution had stopped in the mid-to-late 80's.

Isn't that from that picture from "Tha Carter III" album photoshoot?
And they should hold off on the iTunes release.

I wonder how big the album will be? I think 500,000 first week is a lock? I don't know if he can do another milli, but then again, who knows.
I think this song will debut in the top 10 on the Hot 100 for sure. It will probably have over 1,000 spins easily this week.

That album had massive street hype that he had built up over the previous year going for it. Considering the connection to that album though, I'd say that 500k & most likely 600k should be a lock.

Yeah. I highly doubt he'll break a million again. That album had so much hype behind it, and he's releasing this as more of a side project. I'm still expecting at least half a million and major digital sales for "Prom Queen".
