Sorry for long post, but bear with me... I got a lot to get off my chest and I feel like maybe some of y'all can relate....
I really wanted to like dusse, but I gotta admit to myself and y'all that this is actually making me less excited for c5 now. Believe it or not.
For me, "moment" sucked. I thought it was all cheesy as fuck IANAHB2 style flow (and the bad moments on d5). When I heard "believe me" I thought NOW THIS IS THE WAYNE WE NEED! And I thought to myself: moment didn't make the c5 cut because it wasn't good enough.
Now d'usse comes out and while I appreciate the freestyle nature of the track, I gotta say it kind of ruined my excitement a little bit. After believe me, cream, Miami bitches freestyle, fuckin problems and especially you song, I thought wayne was prepping us for a return to actual GOOD rapping. I feel the energy he puts out on dusse , but the flow is more of that twitchy, jumpy bullshit I can't stand. And the lyrics are... so-so.
I wanted so bad for this to be a new style... I thought he knew that people don't like his shitty trap style and was gonna change, was gonna grow up and rap like a professional again. He hinted at a change and now it's just more of the same old crap... With a few decent punch lines.
U know what it is? I just figured it out: this nigga don't sound COOL anymore when he rhymes. He doesn't just chill and float with the rhythm anymore. He sounds like a hopped up little bratty kid. Sounds like fucking Urkel rapping... Or a crackhead jumping from subject to subject every two seconds, lol. It's all so staccato and jerky, whiny and weird, like he's asking us shit instead of TELLING us. When he used to just riiiide every beat he was a true beast, now he sounds like a dork on the mic. Nigga needs to get some soul back.
Oh well... Maybe it'll grow on me, but I thank God I can always go back to pre-prison weezy for my real wayne fix. Stars can't shine forever, y'all.
