Lil' Wayne, Baby Beef? 2014: 'Tha Carter V' Rapper Focused on Music Despite Cash Money Records Dispute, 'When It's My Turn, I'm Ready' [INTERVIEW]
Lil' Wayne's music has always been his saving grace. No one can deny his talent as a rapper and he takes his craft very seriously. Outside of his antics, including face tattoos and his gang of baby mama's, music seems to be the thing that keeps him sane. Nonetheless, his new album, "Tha Carter V," has yet to be released because of his public troubles with Cash Money Records.

Though he seems to want off of his longtime label by any means necessary, Baby (Brian Williams) is doing his best to keep him on board or in court.
Still, despite all of the madness, Wayne tells Nylon Guys that he will never stop making music, no matter what. "That's all I do and all I know, 366 days a year, 25 hours a day, eight days a week," he said. "This is my life and what I breathe ... This isn't something I do. It's who I am."

"Tha Carter V" was due out at the end of 2014, but according to Cash Money, there are "administrative" issues that need to be handled before the release. In a recent interview with Elliott Wilson, Nicki Minaj admitted that "push backs happen all of the time," and she is hopeful that the two work things out before it gets too deep.
For now, Wayne is waiting for his moment. He told Nylon, "Wayne's always ready. When it's my turn, I make way more than the most of it. If you're ready when they call you, and you make the most of your time, then they'll never stop calling you."
