The Dedication is the fifth mixtape by Lil Wayne, hosted by DJ Drama, released March 2005.

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.

[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.
