Photos of Weezy F. Baby rubbing elbows with Milian during the televised broadcast has heated up the Internet this week.
While Drake ran the show (July 16), cameras also zeroed in on Lil’ Wayne and his PYT, Christina Milian, setting off rumors that the two were an official item. The 32-year-old songstress also happens to be signed to his label. The speculation come after Milian split with then-fiance, Rap-A-Lot Records CEO Jas Prince last month.

Although brief with her words, Milian recently promised Wayne would deliver on his next solo album.
Meanwhile, she has teamed up with the boss man, Lil Wayne, for his final album Tha Carter V. The two recently logged some late-night sessions with producer Mannie Fresh. “From what I’ve heard, he’s gonna have a killer album,” said Christina. “I’m excited about the next one.” She also plans to shoot a video for “Video Model,” her collaboration with Wayne off the Young Money compilation Rise of an Empire.

A few months ago, Atlanta rapper Soulja Boy revealed his involvement on a handful of solo albums including Carter V.
“I’m working on Diddy’s project right now. He’s doing his last album right now, it’s called Money Making Mitch. That’s been taking up a lot of my focus. So is the Carter V. When I was in Miami I did like two beats for CV, and I just been tryna go back in on them beats and make them the best for Wayne. And Nicki’s joint, The Pink Print is dropping. Her new song “Yasss Bish,” I produced that and wrote the hook. I think that record is gonna be so big for her.” (The FADER)
The mega rap star talked about his upcoming Tha Carter V album and how much money he needed to make another LP earlier this year.
“25 to 35 million would get me to do another solo album after this,” Weezy told MTV News after taking a deep breath and a second to think out his answer. “I didn’t smile when I said it,” he pointed out to us in an effort to show just how serious he really is. “I personally plan on this being my final solo album, yes and it’s definitely the final Carter album. It’s the final Carter album. It’s stopping at five.” (MTV)
