Congratulations are in order for Lil' Wayne!

Jay-Z and Kanye recently broke the iTunes store's single-week album sales record with their collaborative album, Watch the Throne, but now, the aforementioned rapper's latest, Tha Carter IV, has topped that with over 300,000 downloads in the first FOUR days of its release!

Well, it didn't hurt that he was the closing act at Sunday night's VMAs.

Just hours after performing live on the MTV awards show, Lil Wayne released his new album Tha Carther IV. By the first day, sales predictions for the first week were between 700,000 and 850,000 units, which is REALLY IMPRESSIVE.

After a full 24 hours, however, new figures showed that sales went up and was projected to sell 850,000-900,000 units by the end of the week.

It will obviously make it to the number one spot on the Billboard charts, which will mark Lil Wayne's third number one album.

And if it surpasses the 850,000 mark, he will break his own record, with most record sales for a hip-hop album by a male artist since his album Carter III.

Way to go, Wayne!

Maybe in the next album Roman should stay away from Eminem to avoid more controversy!

During a recent interview, Nicki Minaj opened up about her next album, and she made it clear that Roman would be featured more prominently.

Here's what she had to say about it:

Did you miss out on last night's VMAs??

Well then, you missed some amazing performances, including Pitbull and Ne-Yo together on stage! And Lil Wayne!!

But don't worry, we have them here for ya! Watch their performances above.

It's dark and pretty depressing at the start, but it's also a very serious piece. Something worth watching and watching to the end.

Thoughts?

Looks like GaGa fans aren't the ONLY ones who should be excited for VMA day!!!

After all types of delays, we've JUST learned that Lil Wayne's Tha Carter IV will become available in digital format on midnight following the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday!

Weezy fans who can't wait until Aug 29 for the physical release

We're relatively sure that the first thing that anyone says when getting caught trying to bring a gun into the airport, regardless of situation, is, "I forgot I had it."

Stand in line, honey! So do we!

Anne Hathaway is sitting by her phone, waiting patiently for Ryan Murphy to give her a call and tell her she's got a role on Glee. The problem is, does he know he's supposed to call?
