Lil Wayne - Tha Carter V (September 21, 2018) Album • Page 6

Wayne's albums have always been pretty long though, I think it's unfair to say it's just because of streaming. Carter II was 22 tracks (granted some skits but still).

Kind of surprised how much I'm enjoying this actually. I wasn't necessarily expecting much.

 

Used 2 is so good

 

I'm only halfway through, but so far I'm enjoying this. Mona Lisa and Uproar are awesome.

 

Sampha on the closer!

 

my fave track on this

 

Went back to rest of this after class and it’s actually quite good. Obviously overlong, but pretty much every track is good.

 

A good amount of good stuff on this, but as a whole it's a pretty exhausting listen. Probably the only time I'll do a front-back listen, and will just listen to the standouts going forward

 

Yeah, this is so much better than Carter IV, even if it is too long.

 

Finished my full listen. This was surprisingly great, but there is a stretch of 5 songs towards the end that could've definitely been taken off. My favorites right now are Mona Lisa, Uproar, Let It All Work Out and the Snoop song.

Definitely his best album since Carter 3, but I guess that isn't saying too much.

 

Snoop song and Open Safe are my favorite songs on here. Uproar and Used 2 also good. Mona Lisa slightly overrated off the bat but also still good.

 

uproar sounds like classic old weezy

 

Open Safe is another one that stood out to me at first

 

I hear a lot of introspective Eminem on this

 

minus the weird feature, What About Me is fiiiire

 

Some of the choruses remind me of newer Eminem songs in the worst way

 

"Famous" is the spitting image of a MMLP2/Revival Eminem song and it is godawful.

I really enjoyed a lot of the tracks on this though. There's nothing like when Wayne gets fired up and just starts going off.

 

So much more of this is better than I thought it’d be. Pleasantly surprised

 

Random but I love that Ashanti and Nivea are on this

 

This is a good album, with some cuts a very good album. I’m very pleasantly surprised.

 

The Ashanti song is really good. Instant standout.

 

Ashanti is deeply underrated

 

400K+ first week early number predictions

 

I actually saw a 525,000 projection. That's huge!

I'm also surprised by how low Logic's projections are, currently at 110k. Pretty sure his last album was around 250k. Either way YSIV is surprisingly great. If you don't wanna check out the whole album I definitely recommend Wu Tang Forever and the title track.
