“The mixtape game seemed to be a dying art and since I’m one of the pioneers of the craft, and it played such a big part in my career, I felt it was only right to resurrect it,” Lil Wayne said of the new mixtape in an interview with Complex. “Also, it’s a lot of songs out here I wanted to kill my way!”
Reviewing ‘No Ceilings 2’ upon its release in 2015, NME wrote: “This ain’t a stop-gap, it’s a goddamn arms race. ‘No Ceilings 2’, Lil Wayne’s newest free mixtape, is about more than suppressing fans’ appetites for the New Orleans rapper’s much-delayed album ‘Tha Carter V’, of which there’s still no sign.
“His third release this year, and sequel to 2009’s ‘No Ceilings’, is a reminder of Wayne’s prowess, as he outdoes rivals on their own tracks.”
Last week, Lil Wayne was charged with gun possession, with a court date set for December 11 in Florida.
Documents filed in Miami federal court on November 17 allege that the rapper, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., had a gun and ammunition on December 23 in 2019, despite knowing he had a previous felony on his record.
