Oh good...

“Problems”, the weakest most mumbly song on C5, showed up at the party with 25 of his boys.

Wtf

This is a snap judgment I admit. I can appreciate the lyricism overall, but WTF. This NC2 auto tune flow is what we been waiting for all this time? My opinions could change over time but right now I’ma say this shit on record:

This actually is the funeral of Wayne for me, because the style most of us old Wayne heads love is officially dead and gone.

There’s enough shit out there sounding like this. Well at least we got C5, which definitely dabbled in new flows, but he did it well balanced and kept the whole project tight and exciting.

From what I’m hearing he is literally mumbling his ass through every track with that slack jaw fucking garbage flow.

Oh, stop complainin, just listen to Carter 2 or DD3

[Zodiac!]

I don't fully disagree however there are some really great tracks on the album, but mind you I like problems

[KnockMeOut]

I'll bet you change your mind before long.

Ain’t trying to ruin the party for anyone else. Just pissed off because I was expecting something different. I’m not 16, I’m old asf. This sounds is fine for other artists but Wayne I hold to a higher standard. This is basically NC2 The Album. I wouldn’t say it’s objectively BAD (like IANAHB2) it’s just definitely not my cup of tea. Just sounds lazy.

I’m sure I’ll end up appreciating it for what it is. I just wanted more than that for this project. But tbh I should’ve seen it coming given his post-C5 features & shit.

Just pick your least favorite song from C5 and now imagine the new album sounded like an extension of THAT style. That’s Problems and Funeral for me. All good tho.

I'm 28 and this is my favorite album since c3. The more I listen to it the more I think it's actually better than c3. You can't even compare this to what other people are doing. They're not the same at all.

What did you honestly expect? Didn't you heard Waynes last projects? NC2 and D6/D6 Reloaded were mixtapes mostly full of autotune where Wayne is spazzing on every song and some singing songs inbetween. Let's not forget that Wayne said that Funeral will sound more up to date with the current wave of rap. Yeah, i love old Wayne, i love Carter 2, DD3, C3 Sessions etc., but this is the Wayne we are getting now.

Yeah I never begrudge an artist their right to experiment, grow, evolve, whatever. Like I said above I’m sure I’ll appreciate it for what it is over time. I was just wanting something with a bit more boom-bap to it. Felt like Carter 5 set the table for a feast, and tbh C5 was such a mixture of styles Wayne could’ve chosen any one of those tracks as a departure point for the next style. I just wish he hadn’t chosen my personal least favorite song to expand upon. There’s enough shit out there sounding like this.

I enjoy this style of music, I just don’t enjoy Wayne doing it. Never really have. Even though he birthed the rappers who took music to this level, I always felt like the new style was best left to them. Wayne is far too lyrical to have his cleverness squandered like it is with this flow. It’s like burning 93 octane fuel in a Kia engine. It’s gonna run alright, but it’s not really necessary. Overkill.

And to the dude digging this more than C3 after a few hours: God bless you, man. Glad this is making such an amazing impact. Hope I can enjoy it 1/8 as much as you—maybe I need an eighth to get there. Lol
