Lil Wayne's Free Weezy Album Revisited (Please No Hate/Trolling)

[KnockMeOut]

The reason why fwa is over c3 is because of Phone Home, Pussy Monster and La La. The only song I skip on fwa is Im That Nigga. But yeah I can respect your opinion

Remember Pussy Monster replaced Playing With Fire because the Rolling Stones sued him. Pussy monster isn't even on my Carter III CD.

FWA is still the album I play by default. And yeah the only song I almost always skip is I'm That Nigga.

Glory, London Roads, Heart Races On, Without You and Pick up your Heart are my favourites. I think Without You is the one I've played most.

i second that but c3 overall was better
no song on fwa can really compete with tie my hands, mr carter or shoot me down
but yeah, thats just my opinion
btw im just seeing that your fav album on lwhq is c3 hahaha

Yeah didnt bothered to change it since I signed up on this forum so thats approx 8 years ago lmaoo, but yes I do understand you bro. Tie My Hands etc are classics, they're really powerful. I think songs like My Heart Races On, Without You, He's Dead, London Roads and Glory needs a few years before they reach that status too

OP was you hating on the album when it first came out?

I was not I actually thought this album was the best project on release as far as anything goes besides NC1

imo both c1 and c3 are better than fwa

[tdaddyhart]

Yikes at y'all saying FWA> C4 and I'm not even gonna bother defending C3. How y'all can say FWA is better then C3 is quite disturbing. There is not a song on FWA better then 3 Peat, Mr Carter, Dr Carter, Got Money, Let The Beat Build ?!? Like cmon man!... anyway FWA was good and it is better then IANAHB2 and lyrically was a step up from 2012-2013 era Wayne.

I think the best way to look at it is in my opinion FWA has the most songs on a project that would be passable singles... If he was in a better place commercially anyone of these could have grabbed radio/billboard attention. Aside from I'm That Nigga this is his closest effort at a 10/10 album in almost a decade.

Yeah i get your point
but i think since this was released like 2 years ago we can judge about this seriously.
but of course i do respect your opinion
But i do think this whole comparing thing is pretty pointless.
im sure everyome here agrees with fwa being a great project, why dont we just enjoy it instead of comparing it to old stuff

This is what C5 could/should of been. Unfortunately it took a lawsuit and many other issues to bring this album out of Wayne.


It's been a bit over 2 years since this album dropped, I played it tonight and here are my thoughts.


1.Glory - This song was him showing he still has that adrenaline in him that nobody else has.
Craziest line on the song has to be:

"Sippin syrup like ginger ale but I'm the quickest snail"

2. He's Dead - This song for me takes the best of everything from this album from the beat to his lyricism and emotion plus a ton of other great qualities and throws it in a blender to create what I believe to be a PERFECT track.

"Rest in peace to the Cash Money Weezy, Gone but not forgotten"
held a lot of weight at the time but here we are in 2017 and still no resolution in sight.

3. I Feel Good - This song is a very fun song and worthy of being a single you'd want to hear in the summer at a party.

This song shows he can make quality singles that are worthy of more than 2 million views on Youtube.

4.My Heart Races On - For me this is the best song on the album period. He gets political and speaks some real shit that had to be said and still needs to be said to this day. Not only did he get his points across this song is a song you can bump and chill to. It's a conscience song that is a chill song as well.

5.London Roads - A fan favorite that I personally haven't ever liked but for me there aren't any problems with this track (including his voice sounding nice) It just doesn't appeal to me personally. This song is still album quality in my opinion.

6.I'm That Ni--a - This song isn't bad but Hoody actually had the best verse on the song with how he attacked the beat. Better than anything on In Tune We Trust.

7.Psycho - This is Wayne trying to push the walls and go in a new direction in this experimental song he rides the beat very well as well as pulls off the "Psycho" vibe. To me this song compares to Krazy from the Unreleased Carter V and is a much better song. He tried the same thing on both songs and did it better on this one all around.

8.This song sounds fresh off Tha Carter 2 in terms of lyricism and fresh off Tha Carter 3 voice wise and Wayne just snaps in a way that he hadn't on any of the C5 songs we have gotten so far.

9.Thinking Bout You - This is a song I've always been on the fence on, Not a big fan of the beat personally so it kinda devalues his verses but when we look into the lyrics he killed this! "My Goons waiting for you to snap like some photo bombers"

10. Without You - This song hit hard for me as I was going through the end of a relationship when this song came out
You can really get a vibe for his emotion and storytelling on this one. This song really compares to Mirror (Tha Carter IV)

11.Post Bail Ballin - There isn't a lot to say here besides he just snaps and rides the beat comfortably and the autotune on here doesn't feel out of place. A filler track but a good one at that.

12.Pull Up ft Euro - This song here is some next level shit where Wayne and Euro go head to head back and forth but unlike the 2 Chainz song "Bounce" Euro pushes Wayne in this song and it feels like a real competition. A great song overall

13.Living Right - Not a fan of this song because how he flows over the beat, I feel like Wiz sounds natural here and Wayne sounds out of place.

14.White Girl - This is another song I don't really care for as it lacks substance or meaning and it doesn't do the job of being a hype song either.

15.Pick Up Your Heart - This is a great ending song that feels like it would be the end of Tha Carter V if that album was released instead of FWA. He pours his emotions out in this one all while giving some clever lines. "Free Weezy" Worth noting that C5 was to be his last album and this song would of been the perfect ending to a career.

Don't forget to add "street chains", a 10/10 song. Also, Post bail ballin is not a filler song, another 10/10 song. How can you not get into London Roads? my favorite song off this. Overall, the album is 9.5/10 to me, I'm that nigga should be gone, wayne kills murda but it's not a song that should be on a wayne album, more of a "in tune we trust" song

Hes dead is getting a lot more shine 2 years later then it did when the album first dropped. No one was really mentioning it and going to London roads. I think He's dead is perfect track to

it's because weezy is rapping better on fwa than c3
weezy is really getting better at rapping as he gets older
c3 has better songs but rapping wise weezy was spitting more on fwa
