'Tha Carter V', which is rumoured to be Lil Wayne's last album was first mentioned by the rapper far back in July 2012, with his fans excited that the album would likely arrive the following year.

The album however failed to arrive and as the year went by, Lil Wayne got involved in a number of legal drama, health issues and fell out with former label boss, Birdman, that saw him shift his attention to other projects like ''I Am Not a Human Being'' released in 2013, the ''Dedication'' series and a number of other collaborative efforts.

The fifth installment of the Wayne series, that began in 2014 is now out, on the same day he celebrates his 36th birthday.
