Almost exactly nine years and one month ago, Lil Wayne and Jay-Z both appeared on "Mr. Carter," a track from the former's Carter III album built around the fact that they share the same last name. Both artists' output have slowed in the years that have followed, with Wayne's breakneck mixtape run ending and label troubles hampering his album release schedule, and Jay's business ventures cutting his output frequency to barely a trickle in the past seven years. This past week though, their increasingly elusive stars aligned, with Jay dropping 4:44 and Wayne delivering In Tune We Trust. As far as Top Tracks goes, no one's coming close to touching them.
