 Amazing September 20, 2008
Wayne did it again, as he usually does. Though this was not Carter I, as the Carter II wasnt either, it was still amazing. After i had this i had it in my deck for two weeks straight. The fact that lil wayne can put out so much material in one year and it still be lyrically amazing says alot. No rapper has ever had the mixtape game like this and been featured on so many songs and work with so many different people. He has a different style and despite his lack of abillity to stay with one subject on a verse let alone a whole song is nothing new. Though he did surprise me on this album, which may be some of the first times ive heard him stick with the actual subject of the song throughout the whole song. His canny ability to make analogies that make you think are still all over this album. The beats are good and the featured guests top it off.

Hard to listen to a person talk about absolutly nothing at all. I can take random words and put them together. Why are people's mind's posioned by this garbage. Just think you gave fifteen dollars to a person that should be cleaning the fry hopper at McDonalds. If I hear another rapper talk about his rims, money and THE CLUB I am going to scream! The south is crap, lets go back to people who make real rap like East Coast, West Coast and the Mid-West.

I hear so many people defend Lil' Wayne as one of the greatest lyricists out right now. Ive even heard a few people say hes the greatest rapper of all time????!!!!! to me thats maddening and sickening. If you listened to this album and liked it, your probably too stupid to understand the words I am speaking. I HAVE listened to this album in its entirety and I have come to the conclusion that Lil' Wayne posses NO talent and is NOT a Genius. He does nothing impressive on this album. His record label is laying down his tracks the way they want and he follows orders. I don't care if the guy can make music without writing stuff down, SO WHAT! Just because you can spit off the top of your head doesn't make you good. If you are a terrible rapper, you are a terrible rapper. If you want to hear some REAL hip hop, try some A Tribe Called Quest, Wu-Tang, Dilated Peoples, MC Ave, Supernatural, Little Brother, Boot Camp Clik, or Gangstarr. Get rid of the $$$ eyes and stop glorifying the south. There are a few exceptions, but 99.999999999% of southern rappers are terrible, end of discussion and this guy is right on the top of the list of the worst rappers of all time.
 Got Money Mr. Carter ? August 4, 2008

I wonder with, 2 Mill sold does my word count ???
I trully hope so because they "cant stop me even if they stopped me" the real smart words of Wayne himself.
There are 3 reasons for why this album is selling -
3. Marketing, Marketing and Marketing . . The music industries new face for sales as 50 is out and now Wayne is in .
2. All of the hype from the MixTapes being with his great lyrics and people are finally thinking HipHop could run thru the vains of a new rapper ? But actually that was the lie . . . . . Its just the smoke and mirrors, Mixtapes where CRAZY and flow was a little weak (id thought since the beats wernt his but dont worri . . . still good) . . but his album came . . . still same.
1. XXL - Most anticpated album for 07 . . . Also XXL one of the worst magazines ever made (only made big due to 50, Eminem and Dre all dissing THE SOURCE magazine)
XXL somehow gave the power aaaaaaaaall to Wayne single handlely with that ?
Then wayne said his whole! album was Leaked on the net so he would put that album out as a sale regardless calling it 'The Leak' ??
When it came to sell . . . ? only 4 songs for sale ??
Then took another year for his album to be realesed ? Listening to this album, it was because he still not have a BANGIN song yet produced AKA:Lollipop .
The final being is that i wouldve given this album at least 3 stars . . . but he has NO! rythm . . . and he's comparing himself Big and Pac ??
Then he makes funny noises like 'Haaa Haaaaaa' - A milli .
Then in a concert he walks around a screaming fan just staring - Check London Wayne Concert on youtube.
Wayne honestly thinks he's thug . . . thats the problem . But too many NON hiphopers (whiteboys who like too much of FloRida) will defend this crap album .
What ever happend to that hip hop made for bobbing your head in car ? This album does not have that material, it has the typical 'pass' album tracks .
Funky and New Trend song (new hiphop is always bout making a trend of somesort) - Lollipop
Song with one of the most powerful hiphop artists and mainly! praise him so you can be praised - Mr. Carter
Always at least a reeeeeal sad song so you can pass thru every genre of people instead of all 'club hits' - Tie My Hands
And still no head bobbing shhh but there is one Mrs. Officer (but as usual in new hip hop) they try an make it a 'Trend' by doing the 'WEEEEE O WEEEEEEE O WEEEE' . . .
Its like NaS explained, people ARE laughing at the blacks of today as they are turning into slaves again, slaves of whiteboys and just please the whiteboys an done deal .
3 Stars due to its a oooook album, but 2 due to how HUGE this album (all to marketing) has blown and when NaS's album is 10!!! times better.
Summarise: New Face, New Selling Tool and New Whiteboy Hip Hop
To bad you can not give a half a star. August 1, 2008

I went and bought this album based on how it was hyped up. I did not lil wayne could not sing or make beats. Half the time what he talks about does not make sense. On top of all this the album is slow. If I am going to listen to something with this pace I would rather it be usher or R Kelley.
