Lil Wayne will release a rock album next- according to a rapper close to him.
Drake claims Weezy has been inspired by Kanye Wests 808s and Heartbreaks and will record a complete rock album.
Whilst in the studio Lil Wayne himself recently joked: I ain't rapping no more Im singing ... I'm about to get some dance moves. I gonna get Chris Brown to teach me some sh*t."
In typical fashion a few new Weezy tracks have leaked in 2009 including Yes- a bass-driven collaboration with Pharrell Williams.
Other songs Red Rum and Up In This Club- which bizarrely samples Spaces Female Of The Species- have also hit the internet. All three new tracks feature Dwayne singing as well as rapping which suggest a rock direction.
And as we know anything is possible in the strange world of Lil Wayne!
