thinking bout you lyrics weak?

[LilTunƎchi]

The reginae part and the photbombers line saved the song for me

Plus it's catchy af , only bad thing about is the high potched voice

[no_tom&jerry]

high pitched voice was on the whole album

not the whole album. but most of it. doesn't bother me. at least its not high as 6'7' or some of those NC trax

high pitched voice was on the whole album

It was slightly higher on this one

what do yall think about the lyrics to thinking bout you off FWA? sometimes I feel like that's the weakest link, but that hook is just so dope. def some hot lines, but sometimes it doesn't hit me in the gut like the rest of the album. THOUGHTS?

You're weak

[no_tom&jerry]

You're weak

Not saying I don't love the song. Just saying he's so lyrically on fire on fwa that this track stands out as like a 7.5/10 rather than a 9/10 or higher (like the rest of fwa)

I think the hook is kinda catchy tbh. The beat isn't that best, but Wayne saves it imo. I like that photobombers line a lot too lol.

Gotta appriciate the classic southern sound to enjoy this production.

Lol cmon yall some of the songs on c4 are just as great as some on c3. Yall always seem to forget that not all his albums are straight perfect where everyone loves it. 6'7 still one of my top 5 Weezy songs of all time. He shoulda never spit another punchline again after that imo. Hasn't been the same. And president carter and many more on that album prove his greatness.

I never considered President Carter to be a great song. it was merely great compared to the crap surrounding it... seemed incomplete and sort of generic to me. 6’7 was dope as hell, no doubt (so was megaman, despite a few too many hashtags), but he has spit a lot of fire since then. I will always love that song, but the more C4 ages the more I realize how shitty of an album it is. C4 had mostly corny lyrics that sounded like he was reading, not flowing in the moment. IANAHB2 had mostly horrible lyrics, annoying delivery and just a bad feeling all around…

S4TW2 was the first display of pre-Rikers flow, energy and general awesomeness since 6’7 and a handful of dope tracks since then (megaman, c.r.e.a.m., you song, levels, IANAHB2 intro, fuckin problems, most of his 2014-15 features, believe me, grindin, gotti, d’usse and maybe a few others). S4TW2 saw a renewed focus and passion for lyricism and flow. It was set up to flow like an album – and it did. It was a major turning point for wayne.

FWA is the next logical step. The back half of S4TW2 saw wayne returning to a lot of mid-tempo beats which forced him to use his slowed down old flow, which was a revelation at the time. That tape displayed his mastery of the new style and the old. Wayne prob saw all the positive reactions to those slower beats and more mid-tempo flows like he used to do at his creative peak, and that’s most likely why we got Glory. Suddenly, FWA comes out and almost the whole entire album is made up of mid-tempo grooves which put wayne squarely back in his comfort zone (my heart races on, London roads, post bail ballin, psycho, without you, I feel good, the whole last leg of the album, etc.) In fact, the only times wayne is NOT rapping in his classic way is on He’s Right, Murda, I’m That Nigga, the first few bars of Pull Up.

Imagine if Wayne was doing his double time rhyming on FWA throughout? It would not be as good IMO. Personally, I don’t want to hear him cramming a million words into the London Roads beat… I don’t want to hear half baked thoughts about his crew and his dick. I like when he slows down a bit and takes some time with his thoughts and actually vibes on a topic for a few bars. The opening lines of Krazy is basically everything I hate about that new wayne – the flow, the delivery, the words, everything. Seeing him NOT do that on FWA has been a breath of fresh air. It sounds like he’s actually a fucking RAPPER again, not a spitter of hash tags and buzz words….. it’s not enough to tell me your goons are crazy and then talk about your girl’s vagina and then how much weed you have in the space of 3 seconds. I want to know more about each of those things… make them funny, make them clever… MAKE ME CARE..

And on FWA, for the most part, he does exactly that.

Trust me I do lol. I just don't think the UNLV sample was executed properly on this song. The beat on the original song is dope af though.

thinking about u aint weak

without you is weak tho

Nah without you is so dope. It's refreshing to have no punchlines and usual rhymes on it. He just straight flows in a direct manner, telling a good story about heartbreak. I like when he says the lines about needing more styrofoams, for the birds, warm side of the bed, being a mess/hands around bottleneck. There's lots more too. Great old school vibe

btw- how the fuck do u have 23,000 posts since 2009??? That's nuts. You dedicated bruh
