A LIL SOMETHING FOR YA: Cash Money/Republic's Lil Wayne unveiled the cover for his upcoming full-length, Tha Carter V, along with its 10/28 release date, on ESPN. The big reveal via SportsCenter and First Take falls in line with his recent roll-out plan, in which he reaches out to such star athletes as Floyd Mayweather, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant, to announce details about the forthcoming album. Weezy is currently out on his N.A. Drake Vs. Lil Wayne Tour. Meanwhile, we're a lil' weezy because this weed we found while digging up embarrassing photos for our forthcoming 28th Anniversary Issue has gone quite stale since we bought it in 1986. (8/14p)
