There is a big collaboration on the horizon; Lil Wayne has signed a deal with Jay Z.
The rapper revealed that he would be joining Jay Z’s label Roc Nation on stage during his KMEL’s annual Summer Jam concert on Saturday. This exciting announcement was captured by an audience member and posted to Instagram.
“I just signed a deal with my motherf***ing idol Jay Z,” the rapper said on the Oracle Arena stage.
Though it has not been confirmed if Lil Wayne will be joining the record label arm of Roc Nation or its management side, notes HipHopWired, he will be a part of a team that is already home to several big artists including Rihanna, Kanye West, Big Sean, and Fabolous.
Lil Wayne recently asked a judge to end his contract with his former label Cash Money Records.
According to TMZ, Lil Wayne filed a lawsuit against Birdman, Cash Money's co-founder. The lawsuit states that Lil Wayne claimed Birdman and the company violated their deal by “withholding tens of millions of dollars Cash Money owes him for his long-delayed album, ‘The Carter V.’”
Source say that the rapper was supposed to receive an $8 million advance once he began recording his album plus $2 million more after he completed it, but so far, he has not been paid at all.
