Anytime a new Lil Wayne "Carter IV" track leaks people are going to talk, but they're really going to be talking about "It's Good". No, they won't be talking about Jadakiss' solid opening verse, or Drake's "calm down Aubrey, you're actually kind of cute when you act hard" second verse. No, they'll be talking about the (maybe) shots fired from Mr. Carter to Mr. Carter. That's Weezy to Jay-Z. See more...
