The Dedication is a mixtape by Lil Wayne, hosted by DJ Drama, released April 2005. It is the first mixtape in the Dedication/Gangsta Grillz series and it was produced and hosted by DJ Drama. The mixtape was given its name because as Wayne explains in the track 'Intro', it is dedicated to everyone around the world and to the 'fallen soldiers'. The cover art shows a shirtless Wayne standing in the road with DJ Drama looking on in the back.

Young Money: The Mixtape[edit]
In February 2005, prior to the release of The Dedication, Wayne and his group, Young Money released a mixtape, Young Money: The Mixtape.[3] It was a double disc tape and featured every song on The Dedication (besides 'Please Say The Baby') without DJ Drama and in their original form. When DJ Drama re-released it as 'The Dedication', he added his tags and cut out the other members of Young Money. He also mashed up some of the songs with different instrumentals: Cambridge grammar in use pdf.
