Sorry 4 the Wait is a mixtape by American rapper Lil Wayne, named as an attempt to apologize for the continued delay of his ninth album, Tha Carter IV (4). Wayne said the mixtape would have about ten songs and be similar to No Ceilings, with him using other artists' tracks and making a cover track. It was released for digital download on July 13, 2011, and received generally positive reviews from music critics.

The sequel to the mixtape was released on January 20, 2015, as a response to the long delay of Wayne's album Tha Carter V and disagreements with his Cash Money label.

On January 14, 2022, nearly 11 years after its initial release, the mixtape was re-released on streaming platforms. All 12 songs from the original release were cleared and included, in addition to 4 newly recorded songs.
