"A Milli", abbreviated occasionally as "Milli", is a song by American rapper Lil Wayne. The song was released April 23, 2008, as the second official single from his sixth album Tha Carter III.

The original version of this song leaked early on several mixtapes. Then, a second version, with the first verse from the album version, a verse from Cory Gunz and the final two verses from the original version, was leaked prior to the album version. "A Milli" was played several times when sampling the record before its release, and was originally slated to appear on Tha Carter III in multiple versions as "skit-like" tracks, featuring artists such as Tyga, Cory Gunz, Hurricane Chris, and Lil Mama though the tracks never made the final cut. They were rumored to appear on the re-release of Tha Carter III, until Wayne revealed that the aforementioned album would be a rap rock album called Rebirth with no connection to Tha Carter III. "A Milli" was ranked the number one hip hop song of 2008 by MTV.

The song won the Best Rap Solo Performance at the 2009 Grammy Awards.

Blender ranked it the number one song of 2008.

Rolling Stone named it the 10th best song of 2008, the 63rd best song of the 2000s, and the 486th best song of all time.

Time critic Josh Tyrangiel named "A Milli" the number four song of 2008, and it was ranked as the number one song of 2008 in the MTV News Bigger Than the Sound poll.

Complex ranked its beat the 31st greatest hip hop beat of all time.

"A Milli" peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Lil Wayne's second top ten and second-highest peaking song on the chart as a lead artist at the time. It has reached number one on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, making it his second number-one song on that chart. It was also able to top the Hot Rap Tracks like his previous single "Lollipop". As of 2011, "A Milli" has sold 2,053,000 digital copies.

The official remix, dubbed "A Milli Freemix", was made by Wayne to thank his fans, celebrating his first week sale of one million copies of Tha Carter III. In the remix, Wayne also hinted at the production of Tha Carter IV.

An electronic remix by duo Sidepiece was released on January 13, 2023.
