“The Funeral” is coming.
While it’s not much, it’s still interesting to see a glimpse into the Young Money workflow, as well as some of Weezy’s current studio habits. When asked whether he’s still going off the dome in the booth, Wayne affirms that old habits die hard. “Same formula, I can’t write nothing down, I got way too old to be trying to read something.” He laughs. “I can’t write nothing down, I’m going straight off the top…It makes everything more valid, more valuable.”
Coming off Carter V, many were curious to see where Wayne might go from there. It would appear that our answer is nearly upon us. Look for a new project from Lil Weezy to come forward by year’s end, provided Mack Maine proceeds to quicken his pace. Are you looking forward to The Funeral?
