      Dr. Carter Was Forced...Let The Beat Build was a forced effort but wen he performs it live its amazing . Mrs. Officer was catchy but forced... playin wit fire was wack out of his element..Comfortable forced...la la shoulda been a leftover... Just my opinion tho

      rappin wise Tha Carter Comes Out On top...Tha Carter II Overall Is His Best... Tha Carter III Wasnt Great But Wasnt Terrible

      Unfortunately, all is not well in Wayne's world. What is truly unfortunate is how "Mr. Carter" underwhelms. The Lil Wayne/Jay-Z collaboration looks too good to be true on paper - and unfortunately it is. Both Wayne and Jay give solid performances, but neither take it to that next level as many would expect

      Of all the "WTF" moments on the album, "Mrs. Officer" is the definitive head scratcher as Wayne discusses sexing down female police officers. An awkward moment indeed. What makes "Mrs. Officer" a humongous flagrant foul is Bobby Valentino's mimicking of a police siren on the uninspiring hook

      The album also gets lost in Wayne's spewing of gibberish throughout. On many of the songs Wayne bounds about aimlessly as he seems content with putting words together for the sake of putting them together. "Playing With Fire" finds Wayne all over the place lyrically and upon further inspection his rhymes don't make too much sense and it becomes easy to believe that he doesn't write any of his lyrics down

      But with pulse pounding moments like "A Milli" pounced and ripped to shreds by Weezy, all is not lost on Tha Carter III. The expectations may have been set too high for Wayne as he too seems to have become lost in his own intoxicating cloud of hype. The blame could partially be put on the fans for magnifying the concept that Wayne can do no wrong because they salivate to fill the void that Jay-Z has left in the game. There is no doubt that Dwayne Carter is a talented artist who has the potential to become a king amongst peasants in the industry. But like Kobe Bryant, Vince Carter, Anfernee Hardaway and Grant Hill early in their careers, a premature crowning of being the next #23 can be equally damaging as it can be inspiring to a young career. Tha Carter III is flashes of brilliance surrounded by a number of rookie mistakes made by a young veteran of the game. Let's see what Wayne does when stuck under the microscope of criticism and continuous comparisons to the greatest artists of our time from here on out
      Good post. I get where you're coming from but I think it's just a matter of preferece. From my understanding you don't think he spit whack nor are the beats whack, you just felt underwhelmed by Mr. Carter, a song which is Wayne's elite group of songs. I can understand that, as well as not enjoying the subject matter on Mrs. Officer. That is no doubt one of the weakest on the record, but the subject matter didn't bother me much, I just feel like that is mediocre overall, so that's out.

      Now the 'gibberish' is a point I disagree with. The album isn't a concept album, so the wide variety of topics rapped about works imo. It's not like he was making Liquid Swords, the songs didn't need to follow an order, again like I said it was a summer/entertainment album delivering on the massive hype (not in the sense of quality but to the masses, I do agree he could have done it better, but he clearly focused on the masses). It's not like C2 wasn't all over the place, the Greatest Rapper Alive, Fireman, Money On My Mind, Tha Mobb - all of those songs are greater agreed, but the subject matter and random lines are evident in each one. If Playing With Fire was on C2 it wouldn't even be the most random song on the album over things like Mo Fire/Oh No. Wayne's style has always been out there like that as well.

      The last paragraph I agree with. He tried to reach the masses with this album, and deliver a full out summer rap album, in those regards I don't think anyone can call the album 'weak'. The rookie 'mistakes' you mention though aren't 'mistakes' at all and all add to the type of album C3 was supposed to be. The rookie mistakes imo are in Tha Carter in which Wayne's flow legitimately seems all over the place rapping on beats he shouldn't be rapping on. In that sense I feel like if anything that album is more forced than C3. At least we agree on C2 being the best.

      But a lot of what was said was opinion, like I stated I feel that you personally feel that way about some songs and you didn't come out like 'naww it's whack' so ya, it's w/e, good post just wanted to express my reply.

          Whether it's impact or quality, I don't think Carter 4 can possibly measure up to Carter 3. Lets face it, Wayne isn't in his prime anymore. Wayne isn't even as good today as he was 3 years ago. Although a few C4 leaks have been promising (Dear Anne, Nightmares of the Bottom), you also have.. How To Love. I just don't feel like Wayne has another good album in him.

          As far as impact goes.. Wayne isn't hyped as much today as he was when Carter 3 dropped. People were waiting for C3 to drop for YEARS. The anticipation for that album was unlike any other album I've ever seen. And the marketing was just perfect. The singles dropped at the right times, they caught on perfectly.. everything went perfectly according to plan. Wayne was all over the place, he had a collab with every artist imaginable..

          Fast forward to C4.. the singles were released at odd times, John failed to get big, the albums been pushed back multiple times.. the entire thing just seems sloppy. And there are more artists emerging and breaking into the mainstream that take away from Waynes relevance. I just can't see C4 doing C3 numbers, or having as big of an impact as C3 did on hip hop.

              Yeah, I'm sure it'll live up to C3, but it's gonna be a hard one, and I'll keep my expertations low...

                I understand what you're saying but How To Love = Lollipop of TCIV if you get what I mean. It's a better "Lollipop" at that.

                I doubt we'll see anymore "How To Loves" on Tha Carter IV anyway
                "Armed and dangerous, rich and famous, young and restless
                Guns and stretchers
                Cristal and dubs for breakfast
                I just got one suggestion - none should test him
                'Cause cuz get hectic; send one through your sons intestines
                Glocks knock lungs from chests, you get the portrait?
                Bodies piled up on porches, it won't be gorgeous"

                  I don't know, Lollipop was a nationwide phenomenon.. you couldn't turn around without hearing that song. 8 year olds were listening to it, teenagers, adults, EVERYONE. How to Love, in my opinion, is a better song than Lollipop, but its nowhere near as good of a single. How to Love really only attracts two different types of people... women and stans.

                  A good single reaches ALL audiences.. and How to Love doesn't really do that.

                    I'm female and I don't like How to Love, when I first heard it I was like WTF??? It's a disappointment in comparison with 6 Foot 7 Foot and John, which are great tracks.

                    I also think How to Love doesn't fit in, I thought CIV is supposed to be a rap album, just like the whole series. Lollipop somehow suits CIII but this is too much. I really hope there won't be any more such tracks on CIV.

                    BTW, am I the only one who likes Lollipop more than How to Love?

                      I prefer HTL over Lollipop but that's just an opinion,
                      and many girls that like pop music like HTL
                      So Lil Wayne, Whats your motivation?

                      'Is that really a question?
                      Do you really have that written down in your notepad?
                      You should be ashamed of yourself
                      You smell me girl
                      I smell like money'

                        I don't like pop music at all, maybe that's why I don't enjoy How to Love. Guess I'm not a typical girl

                        At first I didn't like Lollipop either but I've been listening to CIII quite a lot and I got used to it. Yet, I still think A Milli and Nothin on Me are the best tracks on CIII.
