The show’s return comes just two months before the release of Wayne’s highly anticipated album Tha Carter VI, scheduled to drop June 6 through Young Money and Republic Records.
The sixth chapter in his long-running Carter series was teased during a Cetaphil commercial that aired during Super Bowl LIX, flashing cryptic messages like “CARTER VI” and “DO NOT DISTURB ‘TIL 06-06-2025.”
Wayne officially announced the album’s pre-order on April 1 by posting vintage footage and promotional clips to his social media accounts.
The clip, soundtracked by Tha Carter IV‘s “She Will,” featured a montage of the rapper’s legendary career.
“I was put here for a reason,” Wayne said in one snippet. It might be hard to outdo myself, but it ain’t hard to do myself, so that’s what I do. They call me Weezy Baby if ya nasty. So now I’m a make these platinum plaques and I’m a teach the game.”
