The two Lil Wayne outfits and their styles
The collaboration centers on two distinct outfits, each with selectable and reactive styles. One captures his shirtless, tank-top look, with chest tattoos including “WEEZY,” a backward red cap, silver-framed sunglasses, and layered chains. Bright red lava-style effects run across the arms, shoulders, and torso for a Fortnite-styled finish.
The second outfit is a black tuxedo covered in golden graffiti, paired with a white collared shirt, blonde dreadlocks, gold-framed glasses, and a tie reading “Millionaire.” Between the two skins you get toggles such as glasses on/off, hat on/off, a reactive pants style, a “Ram” style, and reactive glasses options.
Every item in the Lil Wayne bundle
The full set spans two skins, two Back Blings, a Pickaxe, a Glider, two Emotes, a Wrap, a Guitar, and a Loading Screen. Several pieces lean into Young Money (YM), the record label Lil Wayne founded.
| Type | Item |
|---|---|
| Outfit 1 | Lil Wayne (shirtless / tank-top look with reactive styles) |
| Outfit 2 | Lil Wayne (black tuxedo with golden graffiti) |
| Glider | Young Money Stage Glider |
| Back Bling | YM Back Bling |
| Pickaxe | Themed skateboard-style Pickaxe with “M” logo |
| Guitar | Tha Guitar (white and gold) |
| Wrap | YM Burner volcanic Weapon Wrap |
| Loading Screen | Weezy’s Pose |
Jam Tracks and Emotes
The bundle brings three Jam Tracks to Fortnite Festival, along with Emotes tied to his most recognizable songs. The tracks are:
- 6 Foot 7 Foot (feat. Cory Gunz)
- Lolli Pop (feat. Static Major)
- A Milli (2023 Remix)
Pricing and how to get it
The V-Bucks price for the full bundle has not been confirmed. Given how many cosmetics are packed in, it is likely to sit among the larger Icon Series bundles, and individual pieces such as the outfits, Back Blings, and Emotes are expected to be sold separately for players who only want part of the set.
To grab it, open the Item Shop after the drop time listed above and look for the Lil Wayne section. Availability windows can shift slightly by region once the shop rotates, so checking shortly after launch is the safest way to secure everything on day one.
Note: Icon Series collaborations of this size don’t always stay listed indefinitely and can rotate out of the shop before returning later.
Where it fits in Chapter 7 Season 4
Lil Wayne extends the Chapter 7 Season 4 collab lineup and follows Lil Tecca, who debuted as the previous Icon skin with the Season 15 Neon Dreams Music Pass. Reports point to Ken Carson as the next artist expected to join the Icon Series later in the season, though no release date for that addition has been confirmed. For now, the Lil Wayne set is locked in for September 12.
