lil wayne released the carter IV yesterday, and since there's no thread yet I decided to create one.
Personally I didn't expect much from the album since his last mixtape "Sorry for the wait" was his worst tape since a while. The mixtape wasn't bad though but when you compare it to drought 3, dedication 2 and no ceilings you cant help to notice that it's lyrically weak...And when you know that wayne's tape are so much better that his albums, you can hardly expect much for his next album.
But it's surprisingly good even if it's not as good as his mixtapes, the carter II or the carter III (imho),. The album has pretty good songs like "President Carter", "Blunt Blowing", "Mirror" (deluxe edition) etcetera. I also like "Novacane" (target exclusive track) but it's mainly because I had to slow down on the coke due to health (and money) so it it talks to me...

lol erm.. honestly wayne hasn't been good since like the leak. Carter 3 wasn't very good, no ceilings was ok but not great, ever since then he's been terrible. Listened to the album, wasn't expecting much, was pretty much as bad as i thought it would be. It's a shame because he used to be quite good.

Yeah but to be honest it's still better than a lot of the crap we can hear on the radio...With "I am still music tour" he doesn't spend has much time making tracks....I remember being a fan of wayne from 2006 to 2008, there was new tracks every weeks...Sadly it is over, but i still hope that the dedication 4 will mark the return of mixtape wayne though...

c4 is a classic. NUFF SAID. I'ts gonna sell 1,000,000 first week for sure. and i already know there's gonna be haters all over this thread but whatever. "You aint doin shit if you aint getting hated on." and ty HellKey for making this thread. Nice to see a fellow TLien into Wayne too. Tbh im one of his biggest fans. And for yall who have this pre image of lil wayne being just another "rapper" is just wrong. He really is a cool and interesting dude and makes great music and whoever thinks otherwise is just hater. Although i can understand if hip-hop just isnt your thing. We all got our different music. But Lil Wayne is good. and that's a fact. Hes got millions to prove it.
And whoever hasnt bought Tha Carter IV yet, go do it =] it's worth it.

Sales don't dictate skill, blackoni. Nas gets relatively few sales but is one of if not the greatest rapper of all time. Best track I've heard on the album was the Outro because of Nas, which didn't have Wayne on it at all. Admittedly I'm not a big fan of Lil Wayne, but the album really didn't do anything for me.
|
yeah nas' verse on outro was sick ( shyne was wtf rofl) . I also liked the tech n9ne track.
|
Lil wayne... Kinda sounds like shit to me, in all honesty. I'd prefer Kanye west over him, and I think Kanye's a pretty big joke.
But I guess who am I to judge, I like KISS, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, G&R... I'm a bit bias.
|
Lil Wayne hasn't been good for a while. And I'm questioning if calling him "good" ever is a correct statement
|
lil wayne is horrible and i am not a hater
|
This album was by far his worst. Only one or two songs did it for me, Learn to Hate and John. After Sorry for the Wait I didn't expect much for this album, but it still disappointed.
|
In my personal opinion I loved Lil'Waynes' Carter 1 and 2 but I felt like he kept on slipping after every album he put out after those. I figured he was just going for the money and stopped caring about his lyrics so I slowly shunned him. Hopefully with the release of this album, which I have only heard a few songs from, will drag me back in.

If you're listening to Lil Wayne for "the lyrics" then may god have mercy on your soul.

I thought I & II were decent overall. But III was awful. Haven't listened to this yet. Hopefully I'm surprised when i do.
|
This is such a shitty album. I and II were pretty damn good, III was alright and had a few good songs. This album is just complete shit. No relevance to anything important, complete bullshit lines. I'm 100 like a fastball? What the fuck? Horrible album and I really wish it had been better.

If you dont you obviously have no idea why lil wayne is (was ?) one of the best lyricist and probably never understood that poetry isnt just about pretty rimes & explicit messages...wayne has songs with really strong metaphors & similes...
You can think that wayne is just lollipop but he's way more than that...

Carter III had some fantastic lyrics. Just because his subject material is bitches, money and his ego doesn't mean he isn't an intelligent, funny and perceptive writer.

Nothing will ever beat "Fly Go Hard Like Geese Erection."

Dr. Carter is my all time favourite wayne song.
But i'd still put C2 & mixtapes above it

Fair call. I haven't listened to anything but C3 and some of C4. And I'm too lost in the mystery that is OFWGKTA too care about many other hiphop releases.
