[OFFICIAL] Tha Carter V Discussion Thread

[joeycmj]

I just finished the album. i’m impressed, wayne got pretty deep with this album. I fuck with What About Me heavily. that song has over 100k posts on twitter. I could see What About Me being a single for the album. Actually glad we didn’t get a double disc cause 23 was a lot to process honestly. I love every bit this album

this album gives me a FWA & Dedication 6 type of vibe also. it’s great

[Wayne_Fan_101]

Let it all work out..... God damn what a great song man. Some songs could've been cut and the quality of the album would've been the same but over all a great album

[TUNE KNOWLEDGE]

[trstmeimapro]

Just finished listening, and this album proves that Wayne really is the GOAT. He really delivered a great piece of work and I don’t think anybody could say that this is a bad album. This is a album that I could definitely listen to from track 1-23 without ever skipping a song.

Thank you Weezy 🐐

[YaBoyInThe505]

Let It All Work Out is a GODDAMN MASTERPIECE. HOLY SHIT!

[bolder]

Best album !

[Persian]

Just finished first listen through. The chorus on Can't Be Broken might be my favorite. Really enjoyed all of it especially Mess, Dark Side of the Moon, Mona Lisa, Demon, Open Letter, Took His Time, and Let It All Work Out. Gonna need to listen a few more times to absorb everything.

Also the samples of news reports/interview of him on Hittas cracked me up

[trstmeimapro]

Also, the production on this album was absolutely great.

[Raw Tune Not A Cartoon]

1st Listen Notes:


God bless you Miss Cita.


That X hook was a cool touch and I'm not a fan of him at all.


That Special Delivery sample on uproar fucking goes.


DSOTM is peak Martian Weezy, Nicki sounds great too.


Mona Lisa. Holy Fuck. That juxtaposition. Kendrick's final part actually made me pause and think, on god.


What About Me will be a radio hit tbh.


Reginae actually ate that hook on Famous goddamn.


That Dope Niggaz beat holy shit.


Lmao the deposition sample at the start of Hittas.


Took His Time beat sounds like a mastered version of Bye Bae hmm.


So happy Open Safe was able to make the final tracklist. Missing Life Of Mr. Carter a lot tho. And a couple other OG tracks like Gotti. And Side Bitch too. And the Reginae sample song.


WTF happened to STSOR come the fuck on man. Actually devastated over this. I miss that "crack house like a bistro" line. Also why tf Wayne say "welcome" at the end of the song. Really dropped the ball not putting this earlier in the album. Overall a complete shame how this track ended up.


They really chose Demon for the Cool 'N Dre production over Scottie Pippen. We ain't even heard it but I know it would've been better. No hate tho, Demon is still tight.


Yeah this stretch of love/breakup songs towards the end is not good.


Used 2 is nuts. Should've been the intro tbh. The way the beat builds up and Wayne gets more aggressive is fucking perfect.


Let It All Work Out. Holy fuck. That segue from the Cita speech into the track goddamn I felt that. London Roads feels on that last verse. It really did all work out, didn't it Weezy? Thank fucking God it did.


OVERALL: Thank god it's finally out. Wayne is really open and vunerable on this album and I love that. Sounds like D6 Wayne spitting over original production. I'm gonna really need to digest this for a while tho. Some tracks didn't sit well and there's a few others I wish made the final cut. Maybe I'm ungrateful but a part 2 would be cool for the extra/OG songs. Wayne did his thing once again tho and he's still out here reminding us why he's the best.

Yall sayin open safe ain't tough wylin...
