These mixtapes received lukewarm reviews, with many critics feeling that Wayne was focusing on quantity over quality. Sorry 4 the Wait 2, FWA (Free Weezy Album) and No Ceilings 2 were all released in 2015, and saw the emcee taking aim at Birdman and Cash Money in his lyrics.
The release date for Tha Carter V came and went, and Wayne channeled his frustrations into a series of free mixtapes.

Drake (Official Music Video) Official music video for "Grindin'" by Lil Wayne, featuring Drake. “ Off Day” and “ Start a Fire“, featuring Christina Milian, were the next singles released, though they failed to chart on Billboard. “Grindin”, another Drake collaboration, failed to generate much heat either, peaking at #49 on the Hot 100, despite having a flashy music video to back it up. Wayne followed it up with “ D’usse“, “ Krazy“, and “ Gotti” featuring The Lox, none of which performed very well.
The first single was “Believe Me” featuring Drake, which peaked at #26 on the Billboard Hot 100, and received general acclaim from critics. Wayne began releasing promotional singles for Tha Carter V back in 2014, when it was originally set to come out. Carter Author, Composer: A Graham Author, Composer: M.

He told MTV that the sonic direction of the two albums would be similar, and that Tha Carter V would be his swan song. In a 2012 interview with MTV News, Wayne announced that was going to release Tha Carter V shortly after I Am Not a Human Being II.
