Recording and Production
The first single, "Prom Queen", was produced by the duo of DJ Infamous and Drew Correa, notable for producing the Grammy nominated track from Tha Carter III, "Mr. Carter". Cool & Dre and Develop also aided with production. Birdman also stated that the album would feature a song entitled "I'm Not Human". When the lead single, "Prom Queen", quickly fell off of the charts shortly after entry, there was some speculation that the album would be shelved. Despite these rumors, Lil Wayne released the single "Hot Revolver" to iTunes on March 17, 2009. On August 18, 2009, in an interview, Wayne confirmed that the album was completed and ready for release. On the single "On Fire" produced by Cool & Dre, Lil Wayne has been said to play the guitar; he plays bass in "Da Da Da". Most of Lil Wayne's vocals are recorded using AutoTune. He considered naming the album: "Rebirth Of Auto-Tune".
