The Real Highs and Lows of Funeral

[jhoya101]

Funeral is one of the best things Wayne has ever done in his career.

He somehow managed to give us carter 1 style songs, Carter ii style songs, Carter v, Carter iii, Da Drought 3, D6/6Rand carter iii sessions style songs in one album.

Carter 1 with
Mahogany

Carter II
Mamma Mia

Da Drought 3
Darkside

Carter III
Get outta my head(if u don’t believe me listen to it again)

D6
Wild Dogs

We Are Young Money
Wayne’s World

Carter III Sessions
Harden

Carter V
Stop Playin Wit Me

And solid funeral songs such as bastard, funeral, Piano Trap, I Do It

The albums a modern day masterpiece.

Half of the album falls short but the other half is golden. Darkside, Piano Trap, Wild Dogs, and Wayne’s World are some of his most catchy songs in years. I didn’t think Wayne still had it in him. I knew he could rap but to be catchy is a whole different subject. He hasn’t really been catchy outside of small spurts in a decade.

Then to start an album, on three consecutive songs being some of his best rapping in years is carter ii like. With funeral, mahogany, and mamma mia

stop Playin wit me is one of Wayne’s most complete songs of the decade. Harden is straight modern day 07 Wayne. Bastard is virgorous and I do it slaps.

And my goodness the misunderstood Get Outta My Head. This is what I want from a modern day Wayne. Creativity. Just how weird can u get when rapping. This verse is something like he’s never done. I had to play it twice to understand it. The off beat almost backward sounding flow is pure genius. Almost carter iii like as far as branching out. I would like more of this in the future. Similar to a demon

To view this album one must look at it through the modern day Wayne listening lense and weed out the terrible as Wayne is usually is hit or miss these days. The lows are super low but the highs are fantastic. The lows to me tho cane from him tryna make hits and modern music. When he stuck to himself he delivered in a way only Wayne could

A trimmed funeral is one of his best and most complete albums ever.

In my phone funeral is

Funeral
Mahogany
Mamma Mia
Stop Playin Wit Me
Piano Trap
Harden
Wild Dogs
Darkside
I Do It
Bastard
Get Outta My Head
Wayne’s World


One of his best albums ever

this is so painful to read how could you put darkside against anything on dd3....... Carter 2 MAMA MIA? are you deaf bruv..... hahaha

Funerals high points are cool... but they do not hold a candle light to any of waynes peaks and highs thru his career id say they are kicking rocks on the downward spiral with the high moments of IANAHB2 and C4 his last creative decline you stans are wildin out the album is no where near a masterpiece it has PILLARS of a decent album or a step towards a masterpiece but it simply aint there.... but hey i respect ur opinion lets shoot the shit and debate this what this thread for

I stopped reading after that first sentence, sorry.

You can literally trim any mid album down to a EP/album and make it better lol

Nothing about Darkside is catchy, and tbh if the songs on the album were as catchy as you say at least one woulda taken off comerically.

From reading it seems the TLDR is if you trim the album down its great.
if an album needs half the songs cut to be good - its not good

but if we're being honest thts every album past carter 3 for wayne. and im sorry but im in love with darkside. thts the best he's used his voice in a long time on tht first verse. tht bounce flow was a major throw back. i say dd3 cuz he sounded so confident on tht verse. then he went d6 reloaded with the "lets get on with it, megatron bithces" or something like tht, tht whole verse was crazy. and the beat is catchy as hell. and his voice.

all albums post c3 had filler yeah
but fwa, ianahb, c5 were not near the amount as funeral lol - and were decent albums (NOT Classic but good)
c4 and ianahb2 are mid, ab same level as funeral for me
darksides ok but dont find it catchy

[lilwayne-carter]

way too many fillers on funeral, way too many for any project
