Okay. We have to talk about this. It's about to be 4 years since Dedication 4 dropped and, although this is a song on a project that's candidate for worst Lil Wayne Mixtape of all time, this song stood the test of time for me, undoubtedly (Pardon all the commas. I had to end that sentence in a dignifiably laudable manner. *Clears Throat* However, I shall emphatically and parenthetically digress.).
Although it's allegedly and presumptuously (On my part, any how.) not even considered that much of a standout in his overall catalog, I think it was proof that Wayne was never an artist who could specifically show out and exude absolutely irrefutable ambition with optimally maximum effort implemented into a contemporarily sonic output inkling within his illustrious career's oeuvre (Archival body of work.). As of now, for me, while I recite the words in my head like a performance-piece-styled soliloquy monologue, mind is jogged at how mightily daunting it really is that an artist of his caliber while at that age in his life and during that point of his career; that he could drop a track with so many quotables.
Everything from the brash and sordid way it opens up with him solidifying the comeback status he was trying to convey("She so sophisticated. She'll catch a nigga nut and then refrigerate it!"), to the little punches in the climactic middle section ("Don't need no H.I.V. Don't want that Honeymoon In Vegas. It's YMCMB! THE FUCKING ALPHA AND OMEGA!") to the triumphant end ("Write your name on a bullet. That's a Deadication.....4!") is what accenctuates an aesthetic that was vividly depicted through stellar audio and lyrical representation.
It was reminiscent to that of The Second Buster Douglas vs. Michael Tyson Fight. At the point when we were saying he lost all his juice. Bottom line, he just needs A1 production throughout a whole project to make one last classic. I honestly couldn't care less if it was "Tha Carter V" or otherwise.
This was Late 2012! Dayum! Think about this. If this was on D2, it'd be a Top 5 Track. So many double and triple-entendres on this song. He has so many of "THESE" in the stash that it's crazy. I'll never pay to see that boring and predictable nigga live. But there's hope for Studio Weezy, I guess. If he can drop a project full of "THIS" type of timeless and classic heat. Today is the day we declare this the first glimpse of him displaying "Comeback Kid"-like characteristics on wax.
