Fans of Lil Wayne have been patiently waiting for Tha Carter V to drop for years. Despite constant hype and his fervent promises that it’s on the way, the album continues to be delayed time and time again. It’s become clear who the culprit is: Birdman, the founder of Cash Money records.
Caught in legal battles with Birdman over the ever-delayed release of Tha Carter V, Lil Wayne busts out a free mixtape in the form of Sorry 4 The Wait 2 as an apology to fans who have been waiting since the announcement in 2012. But, for a rushed free release, Sorry 4 The Wait 2 is surprisingly well put-together.

Lil Wayne uses this album as a gigantic “fuck you” to Birdman, pulling no punches to show fans who’s responsible for Tha Carter V being held hostage. Weezy goes as far to directly call out Birdman on “Coco” when he spits “Birdman Jr.? More like ugly duckling,” effectively cutting the cord between himself and Birdman. The entire mixtape is filled with disses aimed at Birdman, all with the purpose of exposing his misdoings involving The Carter V to the world.
Production-wise this mixtape follows suit with previous Weezy releases. The beats aren’t overwhelmingly impressive, but Lil Wayne’s raps more than make up for the unimaginative backtrack. Between the Birdman disses and the apologies to fans, Sorry 4 The Wait 2 comes out as wholeheartedly decent.
