Published: Sunday 4th Sep 2011 by David

Expected to sell close to a million copies in  US first week sales in a matter of days,  Lil Wayne‘s latest album ‘The Carter IV‘ is already giving the Rap star much to smile about.

For much to the delight of both he and his label Cash Money, UK based fans of the ‘How To Love’ rapper have taken the LP straight into the top ten of the UK  Album Chart, making it the first UK Top Ten Album of his career.

Find out more below…

Charting at #8, the project charted 48 positions higher than  ‘I Am Not A Human Being‘ and 15 positions higher ‘The Cater III’.

On the singles front, ‘How To Love’ has currently peaked at #48 whilst ‘She Will‘ featuring his protegee Drake resides ten spots below at #58.

Elsewhere on the album chart, Adele‘s ‘21‘ is this weeks #4 whilst Amy Winehouse‘s ‘Back To Black‘ comes in this week at #10.

    Not surprised.If Kreyashawn can make the Radio 1 playlist, then they will buy Lil Wayne’s abomination too.But I have to applaud him for topping ‘The Carter 3’.This one is even MORE awful than the previous one!He definetely evolves in awfulness…Anyway…

  19. Dollar$ign$kills September 4, 2011

    Im sorry but this album was no good. It was definatley better than Rebirth and I Am Not A Human Being, but thats not saving much because those cds were horrible. He doesnt even try anymore because he doesnt have to. He can put of trash and millions will buy it.

  20. Dollar$ign$kills September 4, 2011

    Speaking of Young Money, when is Lil Wayne going to give Tyga the same treatment as Nicki and Drake? Hes better than most IMO.

  37. > September 4, 2011

    Dollar$ign$kills what are you talking about Nicki and drake are stars from the start….Lil wayne don’t have to take care of them hold there hands like tyga lil twist and the next one…nicki and drake go out and do there own thing you need to think before you talk, drake and nicki was made/a carrier way before wayne,he just put them on a bigger stage/sign them thats alot….but wayne an’t holding there hands just like when wayne was lock down nicki and drake were running things holding it down..wayne don’t have to worry if he isn’t around it,s all good.
