How much you think his album can sell ?? ( I say album bc I don't view it as an EP with 12 songs )

I'm not expecting huge sales, but I think the release set-up will help the album have possible longetivity.

Yeah, gold seems reasonable. If Rebirth, his rock CD, could sell enough to go gold, then this hip-hop CD can certainly do the same.

Yeah that sucks. It will help sales because most people buy physical copies and it will force some to buy digital copies until the physical comes out.

Just hope it doesn't backfire.

Lil Wayne's Im Not A Human Being now a full length album, his 5th studio album

Cortez Bryant recently told SPIN that Lil Wayne’s upcoming I Am Not A Human Being EP will now be a full album. Tez said that the songs on IANAHB were originally going to be on Tha Carter IV, but will be released now so that Weezy can fill C4 with new music instead: “I know once he got out of jail those songs would be so old to him” Bryant explains.

Tez Poe also told SPIN that Wayne has been busy in prison writing down lyrics in a notepad which he will record when he gets out (don’t forget Tunechi hasn’t written anything down since around 2002). Bryant said Wayne will immediately hit the studio once he gets out as well and that he will most likely release another mixtape of new material before releasing Tha Carter IV next year (I’m guessing Dedication 4).

Below, you can read a few highlights from the songs on I Am Not A Human Being which will have heavily auto-tuned vocals, drugged-out beats and loads of guest spots from his YMCMB family:

• “Young Money Salute”, featuring Lil Chuckee, Lil Twist and Nicki Minaj, is a banging, minor-key anthem, with Minaj doling out lines like “Camouflage me ‘cus Young Money is a navy.”

• “I Am Not A Human Being” mixes a heavy boom-bap with distorted guitar riffs–a rock sound similar to the one he tackled on Rebirth.

• “What’s Wrong With Them” crosses choppy synth melodies reminiscent of Wayne’s smash “Lollipop” with Wayne boasting, “**** the system and the ***** and all that.”

• “With You”, an R&B-style collaboration with Drake, is a hilarious ballad about seducing a Native-American woman. “Tall glass of Merlot get her in the mode,” he raps. “Two tall glasses of Merlot get her out her robe.”

As the physical is coming in three weeks time their wont be a leak. Yeh!

we will have to wait the full 8 days before we get our hands on it

[YM8]

I think that it's great that it won't leak !!! My prediction is that when it comes out people will hear the new material and be suprised by how good it is and more people will start getting the album and then boom it's released to stores !!! It's a good setup ! It should have longetivity and go Gold if it does it will be Waynes 5th straight album that is certified minimum Gold

[YM8]

not to mention that Right Above It is a top 10 smash so it's definetly great promo !! Hopefully the next singles smash as well

This ep (and the carter 4) might actually be good.

The reason why I say that is because he's in jail, he has no distractions and he can focus on his lyrics. Not rapping while he's high like he used too, slurring his words and ****.

i think he will surprise a lot of people with this new album although im not sure how well its gonna sell. it came out of nowhere from an EP to an album... his hasnt really gotten any huge promo besides "right above it" im not even sure people know he has an album coming out in exactly a week. im hoping iTunes will give it a front banner next monday so people will see it and it has the same effect like when he released "Right Above It"

He should have just kept it as an EP

Well the only difference between an EP and an album is the length. An EP is 30 min and less and an album is longer. So it doesn't change much
