Lil Wayne Retiring from Rap? 'Carter V is my Last Album,' So Many other Passions in Life, Music Not Main Focus Anymore [VIDEO]

Rapper Lil' Wayne has so many passions in life, and apparently music is ranking lower and lower on that list. The Young Money founder recently confirmed that "Carter V" will be his last album - the 30-year-old "Got Money" star then plans on retiring from the music bizz and pursuing other endeavors. "Carter V" is set to be released sometime in 2013, but still before that Lil Wayne's highly-anticipated tenth studio album "I Am Not a Human Being II" is set to be released on Feb. 19, 2013, so fans can still expect a heap of new tunes from the popular New Orleans rapper before he officially turns in his Young Weezy free-styling persona.

Lil Wayne recently stopped by the MTV studios for a sit-down chat with Sway for an MTV Special entitled "MTV First: Lil Wayne." During the intimate interview where Lil Wayne discusses his relationship with music, the rapper eventually states:

"I know ya'll want me around for a little bit and Carter V is my last album...I've been rapping since I was eight years old. That's a long time. I'd like to do so many more things, and when I like to do something, I end up loving to do it real quick. When I love to do something, I'm fully focused on it and it only. Music is sometimes not that it."

Lil Wayne once admitted that he'd like to quit rapping in order to pursue his love of skateboarding, read more on that here.

So what do Mstarz fans think of Lil Wayne leaving his rapping days behind? At least "I Am Not a Human Being II" is on its way, as long as the release date actually sticks this time (and no, Kanye West will not appear on the album despite initial rumors):

"He didn't do any music on this album, but Ye is actually packaging my album. It was his idea. I was like, 'OK, whatever.' He wanted that. He was like, 'I wanna package Wayne's album.' I'ma let 'Ye do what he do. As long as it ain't nothin' out the box crazy. Ye is Ye, he's a genius."
