A couple of months ago, Trippie Redd visited the Billboard offices to promote his upcoming ! album, due to be released on August 9th.
During their interview, Trippie mentioned his “Hell Rain” collaboration with Lil Wayne and HoodyBaby will not appear on his new project after it leaked online in May.
However, there will be a song paying homage to Tunechi on !, which will be called “Lil Wayne“. Redd also revealed that Tha Carter IV is his favorite Tune album!
There was also supposed to be a Lil Wayne collaboration, but he opted to stash the record after it leaked online. Instead, Trippie elected to have an ode to one of his heroes with the track taking on Wayne’s namesake. Naturally, Trippie lit up when our conversation surrounded Weezy F. Baby. Redd goes against the grain when declaring Tha Carter IV to be his favorite Wayne album, even listing Rebirth in his top five.”You gotta think that Wayne fans aren’t all of a certain crowd,” Trippie said of Weezy’s daring forays into worlds outside hip-hop. “He was going mainstream at that point, looking to show the world he could do more with some crossover shit.”
