Lil Wayne has been performing at nightclubs across the U.S. as part of the "Release Partiez" tour in support of his "Sorry 4 The Wait 2" mixtape. Following his performance of "We Be Steady Mobbin," at the Heat Ultra Lounge OC in Anaheim, California on Tuesday night, Weezy made a very special announcement: His highly anticipated "Free Weezy Album" will release on July 4.

An Independence Day drop is especially fitting considering the album's liberation-themed title.

Details about the album remain a secret, but there's speculation that since Weezy recently signed on as an artist-owner of Jay Z's upstart subscription platform TIDAL, the album may be released as a TIDAL exclusive. He recently released the track "Glory" through the music service.

The "Free Weezy Album" will be Wayne's first since his 2013 release of the "I Am Not A Human Being 2" album.

When Wayne first announced he was working on the "Free Weezy Album," it was reportedly to be released in March. The album did not drop due, in part, to his $51 million lawsuit against Cash Money Records and the uncertainty of "Tha Carter V" release.

The "Believe Me" rapper is still battling with his longtime label and its CEO Birdman. In his featured verse on A$AP Rocky's recently released "M'$," he is heard rapping, "I love my BMs, I love my YM, ain't no more CM."

The New Orleans emcee has proven himself a savvy businessman by signing with a royalties collection company, Kobalt Neighbouring Rights. The London-based firm will reportedly help Wayne win back what he believes is owed to him by the Cash Money record label, including unpaid record advances and royalties.

The rapper has managed to steer clear of other legal trouble -- dodging a possible arrest during a May 31 "stop the violence" charity basketball game in St. Louis where he became furious over what he believed were blown calls by the ref. He allegedly "charged" the official. Someone in the crowd called police to report an assault, but no arrests were made.
