Greatest Hits album?

[SpaceGhostBlacc]

if you were lil wayne & you wanted to put out a greatest hits album, how would you do it? & what songs would you put on there? would it be a double disc? would you add new songs on there as bonuses, etc, etc

[dpzlilfrank14]

would these have to be previous album songs? or any of his songs?

[Kuzz]

Would have to be a fucking Quad disc the amount of greatest hits he has... But on a realstic note, it would defo have to be a Double Disc edition with unheard/unreleased bonus tracks from 07-08 era! That would be too dope!!!

I would simply put 20 songs that did the best in charts.

If they don't have to be currently made, I'd say pile his unreleased songs from '05-'08 into a big album. But if they have to be made and he worked on them starting today I'd say...

- Double-disc (first disc should be lyrical/deep/real shit or w/e, then second disc could appeal to the mainstream)
- Don't make it an installment to a previous series (ex: IANAHB, Carter, etc)
- As little features as possible, but if they are added on, make them credible and good, and make sure he does better than the features
- Some instrumentals with piano; some nice Mannie Fresh/Kanye beats
- Using samples since he tends to do good on those

I think I covered some vital shit




Edit: If you mean any old song that was released, then I'd do something like...

I Miss My Dawgs
Something You Forgot
What He Does
Tie My Hands
Receipt
Get Over
etc...

2 disc set . songs like , lollipop , a milli , something you forgot , fireman , how to love are a must on there

[iDamian]

Double CD. Most of the songs would probably come from his tapes tho.

"When they come for me" has to be in there.

[WeezyFan]

"When they come for me" has to be in there.

how is that a hit?? these albums usually have only 2-3 new songs and rest is mainstream

[Guest]

"When they come for me" has to be in there.

Song wasn't a hit in that "greatest hits" sense though.

Lollipop, Milli, 6'7', She Will, Shine, GO DJ, etc should be on there.
