Lil Wayne's I Am Not A Human Being II album was generally deemed not his best work yet, receiving mixed reviews from fans and critics alike. In a new interview with XXL Magazine (via MissInfo), Weezy F reveals he was actually trying to be 'underground' with the album-- could this be where he went wrong?
Check out excerpts from the interview below, where he also talks about the young cats he currently listens too.
Have you felt that urge to get back in the studio? Is there a Carter V in the future that you�re thinking about, or are you focused on something else right now?
I think about it, but I have to be focused on something else right now.
Were you happy with how I Am Not A Human Being II came out and the public response to it?
Overall I felt good about the project because I approached it in a manner of�and this may sound silly�trying to be underground.
The Carter series and the I Am Not A Human Being series are drastically different. Human Being comes off as an underground album or mixtape series that might not have even been put in stores years ago. Releases from Tha Carter series seem more like moments.
Yeah, that�s the way I approach them.
Who have you been listening to? If you are still listening to music with all that skateboarding�
I do. I listen to a lot of Odd future. I�ve been listening to a lot of old stuff, though. Recently I�ve been listening to a lot of Bone Thugs. East 1999, that album. Stuff like that. The first album. I listen to a lot of UGK. A lot of 8 Ball & MJG. And that�s kinda it. As far as new, I listen to future, to a lot of the older mixtape stuff. A$AP Ferg.
