Wayne's team had a conversation with Shkreli after he teased music from his copy of the album.

Just before Christmas, evil pharma bro Martin Shkreli somehow got his hands on an advance copy of Lil Wayne's Carter V. His subsequent live-stream preview of the project caught Wayne's attention, resulting in an internal investigation on the possible source of the leak.

A report from TMZ now suggests that Wayne's team contacted Shkreli on Thursday in an effort to put a stop to any leaks. Shkreli is said to have assured Wayne's side that he won't be sharing further snippets of the album, and that he's the only one who scored a copy, as far as he knows.

Wayne has been holding Carter V hostage during his $51 million lawsuit with Cash Money and its co-founder Birdman. While Birdman recently suggested that C5 would be released soon, Wayne reportedly has no plans to share the music until the suit is settled.
