Unitl the actual album is released it should be merged with Tha Carter III article.Xx1994xx (talk)
why? THAD GETS NO ASS because the album may not follow notability guides according to wikipedia and will either be merged or deleted and this album is more like another deluxe version of tha carter iii so until the album comes out and prove its notability it needs to be merged.Xx1994xx (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 03:00, 2 November 2008 (UTC).
I removed the following sources from the article; my reasoning for removal appears below.
Just so's you know. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 15:05, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
First of all whoever is adding Lil'Chucky,Cory gunz and hurricane to the list of people on the a milli remix STOP one of the referneces that HelloControl removed only confirmed that Tyga and Lil Mama.Xx1994xx (talk)
yoooo, I was brought here from the WP:AIV and WP:AN3 reports. The sticking point appears to be this issue. Is there any evidence of Kanye West's role as producer other than this Youtube video: [14]? I agree that the video does not appear to be the most reliable of sources -- Samir 06:52, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
he talks about it at 4:20, "new wayne special package incoming before this christmas is out and we got a new record on there together"
why is it that if kanye would have said this on mtv, it would be valid, but since he said it during a def jam conference call, it's invalid? that makes no sense. like i said before, all mtv does is takes what an artist says and compiles it into an article. the video of him saying it is just as reliable as an mtv article. 11:11, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
reliable and illegal are two different things. recording the call may have been illegal, but it is not illegal to post about the recording. freedom of the press. cubfan789 (talk) 07:21, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
like i said, IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO USE ILLEGALLY OBTAINED INFORMATION. it is perfectly legal under the united states constitution. obviously the information is reliable too, unless you believe he was lying to all those people.
you know what, i dont even feel like arguing you. you points are just so stupid. so whatever, you win.
my version follows every guideline. i dont know what youre talking about
Per this section of the Wikipedia Manual of Style, we should not use lists when a passage is read easily as plain paragraphs. A brace of bulleted lists on possible producers and tracks instead of rendering the information in prose form goes against this guideline. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 10:57, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
there are a couple problems with your suggestion to follow this guideline
also side note, a lot of jpgrb's grammar is incorrect in the article. i was trying to fix that too.
so whats the conclusion?
07:20, 18 December 2008 (UTC)07:20, 18 December 2008 (UTC)~
strictly following that wikipedia guideline would mean cd singles would have to be listed in a paragraph rather than a list. obviously there are exceptions to the rule.
Anyone think Red Rum's gonna be on here? Cool & Dre Produced it, I'm just wondering... Also, I heard this is going to be a "Rock" or "rock - type" album or something like that. this should be good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.146.25 (talk) 21:01, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
So apparently there are two album articles now. One is this one, and the other is just called Rebirth. Lil Wayne just released the title, and its just called Rebirth. So I don't know if you guys want to change this article title or what.
Zypo (talk) 06:24, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
I think it should be moved to the Rebirth article, since Tha Carter 3 re-release isn't going to happen. John (talk) 17:44, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
I agree. He even said its gonna be an all-rock LP, and that it has nothing to do with Carter III, or his other hip hop releases. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zypo (talk • contribs) 18:22, 24 January 2009 (UTC) NEW JOINT FROM THE ALBULM LEAKED CALLED "FIX MY HAT"
Is it possible to mention the song "Hot Revolver" on here? The song was posted on Kanye's blog. It's obvious the song is going to be on the new album. [15] Douglasr007 (talk) 02:41, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
A new track leaked called Amazing Love. It has a rock sound and everything. Wonder if its going to be on the album. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.193.206.57 (talk) 17:38, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

"Now, you might be wondering what project the newly-released Fix My Hat is attached to (hint: it’s not Rebirth, despite what several blogs would have you believe). Los Angeles Clippers superstar Baron Davis is preparing yet another documentary (possibly a sequel to Crips & Bloods: Made In America), and Fix My Hat has been chosen for the soundtrack."[16]

According to [Metacritic]http://www.metacritic.com/music/upcomingreleases.shtml the date of Rebirth being released to public is the 18th of August 2009.

THERE IS NO DOUBLE PACK!!!!!!! On mtv.com.uk, Birdman Stated: "Tha Carter 4 is out December 15th, we won't release The Rebirth as a double CD like people are saying. Both will be out before 2010.

This is one thing i really hate about wikipedia. Most of their bullshit members and administraters are so lazy, they never do anything but reverts. They can't look up the info theirselves, they need other ppl to show them proof. It's called google, find a source that does fit your bogus Three guidelines. [2] There's your realiable resource. Stop being so damn lazy and look up the proof yourselves once in a while. http://www.rapbasement.com/eminem/112809-according-to-amazons-uk-website-eminem-will-be-featured-on-lil-waynes-new-rebirth-album.html --70.233.102.223 (talk) 22:05, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
I just saw on a lyrics site and a site that you can actually order the album from and its got a tracklisting and every thing they've written lyrics to it [[[[[ALREADY]]]]]. So whoever created this page should edit it go on azlyrics.com find the tracklisting and write them on the page. I would if i was allowed to, but i can't and how do you create a page anyway if you can tell me please send it to me at stiffla_98@live.com.au plZ!

On the single "On Fire" produced by Cool & Dre, Lil Wayne has been said to being playing the guitar in the song.[1] Also on the song "Da Da Da" he will be playing the bass, confirmed by Cool & Dre.[2] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Npaproductions (talk • contribs) 05:28, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Its been brought to my attention that the highly anticipated collaboration with Eminem and Lil Wayne will be coming out as the next single after "Da Da Da". Can anyone confirm that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Npaproductions (talk • contribs) 15:20, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
Might as well put "undetermined" as the release date until the album actually does drop, cause so far that album's been stalled for so long that I think it's trying to beat Chinese Democracy in delays. Look, he'll go to jail soon. He won't be able to tour and promote the album. So this album may actually not see the light of day until 2011 at best. Until the announced date arrives and the album actually shows up everywhere in stores, the "release" dates shouldn't even be taken seriously. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.189.90.68 (talk) 02:57, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
Best Buy is advertising it for sale. Maybe the release date should be changed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.207.81.209 (talk) 22:56, 12 December 2009 (UTC) The new date is sourced. Also retailers are not a reliable source. SE KinG. User page. Talk. 05:26, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
Drop the World leaked because Amazon shipped copies out by accident and so the whole CD will soon be leaked. No doubt the track list will change by February though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.54.64.255 (talk) 21:08, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
I did read this on Rap Radar. It seems like either the album will be moved to an earlier release or it will be pushed back further and with a completely different track listing. SE KinG. User page. Talk. 22:03, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

The New York Times today has an article profiling Lil Wayne. It says:
“ | After months of delays, “Rebirth” had been scheduled for release on Feb. 1, seemingly pegged to Lil Wayne’s impending incarceration.
That release has now been canceled, but what an odd note to depart on it would have been. |
” |
That could either mean shelved or indefinitely delayed; I think we should wait for other reports to surface before jumping from conclusions. Andrewlp1991 (talk) 20:15, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
At least update the article to say something about the leaked track list...
It is as follows: American Star Prom Queen Ground Zero Da Da DA Paradice Get a Life On Fire Drop The World Runnin' One Way Trip Knockout The Price is Wrong Die For You I'm So Over You Revolver Hot Revolver
I don't know who you want me to confirm this, but I have the Promotional Copy in front of me right now, do what ever you guys do to reply to this to let me know if there is some sort of way I can confirm it... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.232.0.24 (talk) 03:39, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
the leaked tracklist, and the leaked album, is the real thing, as of now and you should get pictures to confirm it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.188.18.247 (talk) 03:29, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Given the fact that it has been leaked, I think we can judge for ourselves the genre of music here. While many songs use guitar, only a few could even be considered for candidacy for rock songs. Using a guitar does not make it a rock song. Given the fact that few songs even come close to qualifying as rock songs, the album can not be called a rock album with a few raps songs. It is, more accurately, a rap album with a few songs (that are arguably rock songs to begin with). Calling it a rock album doesn't make it a rock album. I could call Wikipedia a social networking site, but it isn't. I could call New York a country, but it is not. Rock has distinct qualities. The most obvious problem here is that on almost every track the drums overshadow the guitar, and the guitar proceeds to play a role as a rhythm instrument. This creates a song composed musically of mainly rhythm and drums, which is not rock music. The occasional rock "solo"-esque elements appended to the beginnings of many songs hardly qualify the song to be rock when the proceeding composition is largely rap. It is only a "rock" album in as much as Lil' Wayne insists it is, and until i can make grandiose claims with no merit on Wikipedia as well, i don't see why this institutionalized form of misrepresenting facts can be allowed on Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.205.186.181 (talk) 01:57, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
