Lil Wayne headlined Madison Square Garden for the first time, delivering a milestone performance that coincided with the release of Tha Carter VI, the latest chapter in his celebrated album series. The five-time GRAMMY winner electrified a packed crowd with the live debut of new tracks including “King Carter,” “Welcome To Tha Carter,” “Sharks,” “Hip-Hop,” and “Banned from NO.”
The New York City show marked a high point in Lil Wayne’s career, blending the new with the legendary. Fans were treated to a dynamic, career-spanning setlist featuring classics like “Hustler Musik” and “John,” along with anthems such as “A Milli,” “Drop The World,” and “6 Foot 7 Foot.” A surprise appearance by LL Cool J added to the night’s energy.
The show came just days after Lil Wayne announced the Tha Carter VI Tour, a North American run celebrating his new album and more than two decades of his groundbreaking Tha Carter series. The tour begins July 30 in Bristow, Virginia, and will stop in major cities including Toronto, Detroit, and Los Angeles before wrapping October 2 in West Palm Beach, Florida.
