LIL WAYNE REBIRTH ALBUM RELEASE DATE “LIL WAYNE THE CARTER” DOCUMENTARY TRAILER VIDEO0 comments

Lil Wayne has two new projects which are about to be drop.  Weezy’s much delayed rock inspired album “The Rebirth” has been given a December 15th released date.  There is also a controversial documentary about the rapper which tackles his public persona and syrup addiction that has been given a DVD release date. Lil Wayne took legal action against the documentary filmmakers to block the film that debuted at the Sundance Film Festival. Check out the trailer if you missed it.

The trailer for a new documentary film about Lil Wayne has leaked to the web — but the New Orleans-born rapper doesn’t want you to see it.

Last April, Wayne filed a law suit attempting to block the release of Lil Wayne: The Carter, a film that chronicles his life — from his constant desire to write and record music to his struggle with opiate cough syrup addiction — in never-before-seen video footage shot both onstage and off. Wayne claimed producers had broken a contract giving him control over the final edit. The judge didn’t agree, and now the doc has been issued a Nov. 17 DVD release. Watch the trailer below.

In the clip, Wayne is seen in a series of smoke-filled hotel rooms, recording studios, and fancy SUVs speaking candidly about rock stardom, music, and his own death. In one scene he’s even caught mixing cough syrup on his tour bus. If the trailer is any indication, Lil Wayne: The Carter is an alarming and controversial work of cinéma vérité on one of pop music’s most iconic figures. [source]
