Critics: Carter III is Hot Garbage
I didn’t listen to any of the tracks off the leaked album by Lil’ Wayne in stores today. My opinion of Lil’ Wayne is that he is the worst MC in the history of rap. His voice sounds like nails scraping asphalt. In short, I can do without ever hearing another Lil’ Wayne track.
The critics seem to agree that Lil’ Wayne’s newest offering leaves a lot to be desired:
Now with the release of “Tha Carter III,” Wayne attempts to live up to his own hype, but falls short. The disc is a frustratingly uneven effort that’s filled with safe songs aimed at commercial radio and a few quirky cuts that feature Wayne’s bizarre sense of humor and inflated opinion of his rap skills.

Industry estimates are that Carter III will sell about 180K in the first week. (Source)

Everything is easy baby leave it up to weezy baby
I have it and like it. That’s all that matters!
Mmmm I’m an R&B chick so its either or with Wayne. But I prefer Kanye over him. Would I ever buy a Lil Wayne cd? NOT ON MY LIFE!
WEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZYYYYYYYYY BAAAAAABBBBY!!!!!
Does it come with an United Nations Translator Machine … Cause I can’t understand a mumbling Word he’s says ….
I heard NY Times rated it as 31/2 stars….so it must be good!! Don’t be mad Sandra….it’s ok.
Kymstry… Corner… Now!!!!
I’m no weezy fan, I’d rather listen to take a bow anyday of the week over this horpher (horse & gopher). On a brighter note, I’ll be supporting home-team and making my boyfriend buy Plies cd LOL
Kymstry…it’s definetly a time-out for you :). i’m not a lil wayne fan like that either….and really their any rap music that is worthy of purchasing a cd anymore???
LOL @ kymystry
Hahaha you a fool for that one LMAO!!!
Honestly, Weezy is an extremely talented MC…he may not talk about the most uplifting things but his litterary skill is undoubtedly superior to most of the rappers in the game. The Carter III is NICE, I had the leaked album and out of respect am going to buy the actual album today…I’m looking forward to Nas’ too July 15th yall!
———————-> > > > going to my Time Out ..
I love wayne and think he is on another level. he is a lyrical genious. I’ve loved him since his debut with the hot boys. However, I think he is battling a few demons.
Anyways, I still purchased two copies of the album (sidebar 2 of Plies album as well). I really think his album is going to do very well. I went to the store first thing at 10am and there were like 10 other people walking in the door with me to cop the same album. LOL!!!
***Just call me Weezy ****ing baby, Please say the baby. LOL!***

I agree. I love Lil Wayne. He is even better live, especially when he is freestylin. He is the hottest MC, next to my baby Kanye though. Do yo thang weezy with yo grimlin lookin self. All love.
*Singin now*-I’m fresher than a mutherf*ker, yes I’m a mutherf*cker……..
I have the album and it is Hott… I hope it sells well too it’s nothing like proving your “critics” wrong
and the AJC do not count sandra (not to me atleast) LOL
i`ll skip this one !
Lil Wayne grows on your like a fungus.
Some of his music is hot…some you know he was high when he made it!!!
I’ll listen to the album today before I call it garbage!!!
*you
LIL WAYNE HAS FANS, STANS, A FOLLOWING, ETC…. HE WILL DO VERY WELL.
TEAM WAYNE!
LOL
Lil Wayne is the hottest rapper out right now..You have to give him his props!…I agree w/Black Beauty the AJC does not count as a critic, Sandra!..
Frank Ski and Wanda, said that lil Wayne’s CD, is the answer to Hip Hop and praised the CD immensenly this morning. I believe Frank-Ski to be a wonderful source when it comes to music period. (Thanks for turning me on to Hidden Beach FRANK!)
After awhile his voice (not his words) start to grind on my nerves, but I did hear a portion of the CD at a friend’s house. I actually like what he is saying and some of the collaborations are nice. He has matured in his lyrics.
I LOVE LIL WAYNE !!!!!!!
Aw man… so harsh on the lil homie. I love him!!!

Yep. That lyrical genius right there! {Insert Sarcasm Here}
I Love Him and his play Daddy!!!!!
The teenagers will still buy it. I’m not really a fan of his, but will give him credit on being really clever.
I just heard a song of his, and there’s a line that goes something like…….. you better wear that latex, cause you dont want to get that late text, I’m late text.
LOVE IT!!! There’s other songs of his that I like bits and parts of.
I love Wanye, New Orleans where ya at?
he’s doing his thang.
Say simple stuff and your somewhat now the greatest rapper.I guess someone is try to insult my intelligence because I don’t think so.Yeah he’s a good rapper, I like MCs.

I just got it today…hopefully it will be decent. Personally, I think he coulda saved alot of material he released on mixtapes for Tha Carter III.
Weezy is kind of fallin off right now…some of his recent releases have been horrible (some mixtape songs, that verse on Usher’s “Love in This Club”). I feel like his addiction to that damn syrup is getting outta control…and you can most definitely tell by his latest shyt! Weezy put those cups down sweetie…we are losing you.

Just a catchy phrase. My personal motto. Real talk. My opinion. My preference. Thank you maam. {Insert Sarcasm Here}
Thank you candy cane…I heard that line the other day and I truly didn’t get it.
Wayne’s CD killz…. That’s all.
Now ya’ll know you be up in the club singing “lick lick lick lick like a lollipop”. I didn’t like Weezy at first but he just grew on me especially when he came out with “Go DJ cause that’s my DJ”

My son is a major fan and always points out the clever things Wayne says (although I heard this one all on my own)and now I really pay attention to what he (Wayne) says
I am a die hard old school West Coast gangsta rap fan and don’t really mess with anything else, but I’m really feeling Wayne. He will likely join Game as the only two current MC’s I give my money too. I like his voice, flow, swag and beats.

I like some of his stuff but not everything and I wouldn’t call myself a FAN at all. I will download some songs though or listen to them on imeem.com. Aside from that its TEAM PLIES all the way, his album drops today too. I am purchasing a copy for home, my car and my boyfriend. MMM hmmm .. Team Plies all day. I wonder what his sales will be for hte week. I am sure Wayne will do at least 200k
he will sell and yes, he grows on you. i hope he gets the help he needs to lick his issues in the process, because he has a lot of fans and ppl that luv him
the album is hot been bumping it 2 weeks and bought the deluxe edition today dr carter saved us lol
Hey Bird…right there with you, I still mourn Pac but love Weezy F.’s swagger, I ituned a few songs of his after a party and got into him not too long ago. Prostitute Flange is my jam! Still his obvious addiction to that cup bothers me, made me google that stuff and even found him completely out of it on youtube, so I am torn.
LEAVE THE HATING TO SANDRA…IT’S FUNNY YOU ONLY MAKE POSITIVE REMARKS FOR ATLIENS…I BET YOU THINK ROCKO’S ALBUM WAS GOOD, HUH??????? SERIOUSLY
Sandra, I have to call you on BULLS%$^….
The Carter III is on track to be the BIGGEST DEBUT of the year (beating Mariah and Usher)….fall back Sandra…your hating is starting to show…
I mean it’s ok it was hyped a little to much i think that’s where the problem was and i agree with whoever said sometimes you just know he was high as a kite in the studio but the last album was better than this i like about 3 or 4 songs maybe no real gansta just alot of commerical songs
those estimates were off, he is doing 800k
Don’t beleive the negative hype, Weezy’s new ish is fyah, and i don’t even F*ck with hip hop no more!
lol at ppl that says stop hatin and say they didnt listen to it call it garbage but it sold over 400,000 the hate cant stop nothin I love it so who cares about you all that took the time to be negative I think it makes a lot of you feel good to hide behind a computer and put someone down like your are important!!
it takes one time for ppl to know you smoke weed and you are always high like they are there stfu !!!
one song #1 for 12 weeks 2 in the top 100
