Tha Carter VI is the thirteenth studio album by Lil Wayne, released on June 9, 2025. The album was officially announced in January 2025, after years of speculation and delays. It is the sixth installment in the 'Tha Carter' series, which began in 2004.
The album features collaborations with artists such as 2 Chainz, Rick Ross, and production from Mannie Fresh, among others. Critical reception was mixed, with praise for Wayne's longevity but criticism for a lack of innovation compared to his earlier work.
Tha Carter VI debuted at number 2 on the Billboard 200, with 45,000 album-equivalent units in its first week. It was promoted with a concert tour across the United States and a documentary about the album's recording.
