Producer Mannie Fresh has not really dipped his hand into the Lil Wayne and Birdman feud, which is now pending in courts, but he did promise that the shelved "Tha Carter V" would showcase more the first album, rather than Weezy's later LPs.

In an interview with Montreality, he said the world is waiting on "Tha Carter V" and he said it's going to be worth the wait.

"We kind of went back to that original Cash Money feel, what you grew up on, the Mannie Fresh sound that you knew Wayne and Mannie did," he said. "Chemistry. It's more of the original. That first Carter. That feel."

Lil Wayne and Birdman's feud has ended with Christina Milian's rumored boyfriend filing a lawsuit against Cash Money records for not paying him the money upfront in making the "Tha Carter V," as well as for allegedly scrimping his rightful share from profits amounting to about $50 million.

Earlier, Mannie Fresh told Associated Press that the Lil Wayne and Birdman feud is also about Weezy growing up as an artist.

"Wayne has given us some great albums, but he has never given us that album with like a Justin Timberlake on it - with features where like, OK, this is what we expect from an artist of your caliber," he said. "Like you went out and got Cher on the song, because you are that dude. You're on that level."

"I think he's going - real talk - 'I could probably use Drake and Nicki, but I've done that so many times. Let's get out there and do things so I can show that I am bigger than life," he said.

Mannie Fresh said the Lil Wayne and Birdman feud was about Christina Milian's rumored boyfriend feeling a little restricted in expressing his creativity.

"He's going to get somebody with star power that can bring other people to the table," Mannie Fresh said. "If I did do a song and I got Justin Timberlake on it, I got Justin Timberlake fans as well. I think Wayne is starting to see it in that way. Hip hop can only bring you so far."
