This February is not just for candy hearts and heart-shaped chocolate boxes, but the month where hot, highly- anticipated, hip-hop releases will finally hit the shelves.

Case in Point: Lil Wayne's 'I Am Not a Human Being II.' Fans have been anxiously awaiting the sequel to his 2010 album 'I Am Not a Human Being,' which was supposed to release late last year. The album, which features many infamous guests including Nicki Minaj, Meek Mill, and 2 Chainz will finally hit stores on Feb. 19.

Lil' Wayne isn't the only one who has been keeping fans on the edge of their seats. 50 Cent has been also pushing back the date for his new album 'Street King Immortal' since November of last year. Fans have been dying to hear the rapper's fifth studio album, which is now expected to drop on Feb. 26.
