Go listen to 'Tha Mobb' then go listen to '6 Foot 7 Foot'. It's two different kinds of rap. It's easy to see now that Wayne is a punchline rapper. He's always had sick punchlines, but now it seems like every other line is a punchline. Back during C2, Wayne could spit fire for bars on bars without dropping a punchline for a filler and it would all be meaningful rap lyrics.

That's the difference between C2 and C3. C2 gave Wayne respect by everyone for a reason - he was arguably the best rapper in the game when that album dropped. He was rapping at another level, basically without wasting a bar on any song. Every song on C2 was raw rap, even the singles (ala 'Fireman') and the jams (ala 'Receipt'). Compared to C3, Wayne was looking to top the whole music industry at that point - so he changed his style up to fit it. That's why C3 has a bunch of different styles, club bangers, and pop songs. 'Lollipop', 'Get Money', 'Mrs. Officer', ect. were pop songs - not raw rap that C2 was made of. It's not a bad thing, because it put Wayne on top of the music game. That was his plan and he played it perfectly with C3. But there are very few songs on C3 that would have made it on C2.

In a nutshell, C2 = raw rap to get respect as the best rapper alive / C3 = mainstream pop songs, creative raps, ect. to get on top of the music world. C2 Wayne didn't waste a bar with a punchline to fill it, every bar was full of lyrics that meant something to the song. C3 (and now) Wayne is full of punchlines that catch the eye, but aren't necessarily contributing to the theme of the song (but that appeals to the mainstream fan and gets sales, chart positions). It's all a chess match to keep up with the times.

Lock & Load is one of his best IMO. I bump that song almost everyday.

Lil' Wayne can honestly put out a track with a beat and him only giggling through the whole thing and everybody will love it. He has the whole world on his tip. And why does he have everybody on his tip? Because of what he did from 2003-2006, when he was truly the greatest rapper alive.

To me Ludacris is one of most consistent rappers of all time. And he STILL hasn't decided to start rapping about his swag and overloading his bars with punchlines. And he's been in it since '98.

Honestly I can't even really 100% blame Wayne. The fans these days want bars that can make them say "OOOOOOOHHHHHHHH That was live!" So he has to deliver. Wayne even said it himself, that he doesn't even think he can ever put out an album LYRICALLY as good as Tha Carter II.
This whole condoning switching up his style is just retarded. And I don't know why everybody is saying wait on C4. Wayne always says something is 99% done then releases it a year and a half later.
I guarantee that every song except maybe one will feature about 3 young money artists. It will be a YM album.

*Sends Lil Twist after this heathen* lmao but really tho I hope ur wrong and wayne understands the gravity of this album...

He has to pour his heart out. Leave it all out there...nothing to waste. Don't hold back. Thats how wayne usually is on Carter albums tho. U feel it.

EDIT: Oh and STOP tryna put random ppl on with his songs on his albums...Its Carter 4 not "oh lemme put Short Dawg on the intro so ppl can hear what he has to say"
