It's a big day for Lil Wayne as he comes back a little over a month from dropping Dedication 6 with Dedication 6: Reloaded. In typical Weezy mixtape fashion, he hops on most popular beats around and demolishes them. One of the highlights off the project was Wayne's take on Future's "Thought It Was A Drought" from 2015's DS2.

Weezy's on a roll with all the music he dropped. After he unleashed three cuts off the project, Dedication 6: Reloaded lives up to the hype. Wayne comes through with a slick freestyle over Future's intro track to his critically acclaimed album DS2. Wayne comes through with a fire freestyle with volatile flows coming from every direction. For Weezy, it's further proof that he's one of the GOAT's in the rap game.

Quotable Lyrics
I need confirmation for my compensation
Or we make a corpse out your corporation
I need my donation, take drugs in rotation
That AK gon' sound like a standin' ovation
