Drake, Post Malone didn’t make Lil Wayne’s ‘Carter V’ but were almost featured

After much anticipation, Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter V arrived Thursday night, but it was missing two big names that were rumored to be on the project—Drake and Post Malone.

Now, Rolling Stone reports that “What About Me” was supposed to feature Drake, according to Johnny Yukon, who co-wrote the song in 2015. Post Malone also reportedly recorded a featured verse earlier this week, but it didn’t make the final version, which instead features rapper Sosamann.

Earlier this week, TMZ reported that Post Malone rushed to the studio to add a last-minute verse to Tha Carter V. “There is a version [of ‘What About Me’] that Post cut literally this week,” reveals Yukon.
