Prefacing this post with this: Been a Wayne fan for more than a decade so this post comes from a place with a lot of attachment to his career and his artwork. The old stuff for the most part is still great to me. So it's not a matter of me not liking his music anymore. I'm still very much a passionate Wayne fan. but I am not a fan of what he is bringing to the table right now.
It's not too late to scrap this album. If this song is any indication of what Wayne has going on mentally and musically.. I just don't think he needs to blemish his career with it. I had initial hype for fix before vi. but honestly that was HORRIBLE. and If C6 sounds anything like that or what the new CG2 song sounds like I just don't want it.
If we're being honest, Wayne sounds bored. he sounds tired and disinterested more than ever. And not in the way he did in 2013.
earlier this year he talked about how AI could never be him, he sounds like he has less emotion than AI actually would. and that is a BAD thing.
For the most part his features have been great this year. Maybe that's because people are paying him to be on their song and he wants to respect them but when it comes to his own music, he sounds so uninvested that I genuinely think he only does it because it's what he knows how to do.
We do see him being on tv more with interviews, but he's always been trained for PR and related things.
I think Wayne is phoning it in when it comes to his career because there is pressure with his legacy.
While some might not quite agree, I genuinely do think there is pressure to still deliver and be great, even if he has lost the desire to.
But because the desire seems gone, it's a shell of what we've come to love and expect.
In closing, Nobody wanted to see Jordan and Kobe go out missing shots and being unable to score 20 points a game. And I think Wayne is getting to the point of not being able to score and play like he used to. Like Kobe did in his final year. Wayne can still have a big game if you push him to, but I don't think he's got the love for the game at this point of his career.
