lil wayne is annoying

yeah C2 is not perfect but the reggae stuff is not a minus at all imo

when i poop on AJ hawk's mullet, that's stuntin

If anything, C2 suffers from puttering out at the end, where it loses steam.

But that's what happens when your album is 18-20 songs long.

i think the only prob w/ it was the cheese-metal guitars on some tracks

those are still downright tasteful compared to the Rebirth era, though. and "Best Rapper Alive" is great.

he's a PACKERS fan, i'mma bill magill this motherfucker!

Dude needs to just vanish

his vow to retire after at least 2 more albums is so cruel

he can make as many albums as he likes as long as the guest verses stop

there is that louis ck line about britney spears, how she was the last time he kinda knew what young people were into, & he's like she was twenty one then but we're the same age now, like she caught up, now we're both 44. & it's so weird, i remember thinking about wayne & being like whoa he's only twenty six. but now it's like there are all of these distinct eras that have elapsed, like he's released like ten records that are all terrible in different & distinct ways, a guitar record, another rap record, it's like the carter IX now, there are tapes, he's served like six years in jail in the past two years. i can't keep up.

the problem w/ this plan is any song he could do and doesn't, they get drake instead

"when lil wayne verse stop, very bad..."

I'm not as down on Wayne as some of the people here, but has he had even one great (or great-ish?) verse this year? Very depressing, especially when you consider how many at bats he's had

Lollipop & A Milli are classic, rest not even worth thinking abt

haha

feeling that pov tbh

so looks like he's still in a coma......anyone know what it feels like to go on a codeine binge/be a longterm codeine addict?

not to be callous but are there any guys who had a serious habit for a long time and lived longer than dj screw/pimp c/big moe/etc.?

yeah i was wondering the same thing. seems like a very sure path to death.

xp al

I'm starting to wonder if this was a failed suicide attempt.

i dunno doesn't seem very in line with the impressions i've always gotten of him as just a straight up self destructive addict

http://m.pitchfork.com/news/49995-lil-wayne-reportedly-still-in-intensive-care/

Surprised by how little attention this is getting now. Wayne got a ton of press for reportedly being on his death bed, but then when he survived everybody moved on even though by most accounts he's still in critical condition.

Feels like this is definitely going to be a big turning point in his career and in his life if he survives

yeah maybe. i mean he's been acting like he wants to retire for years now, maybe this will be what gets him to actually do that and chill out for a while.

it does seem like kind of a muted press response, like not much greater than when he hurt himself skateboarding or whatever.

not really that surprised by lack of attention since everybody in wayne's camp is keeping mum and nobody wants to pull a tmz

yeah tmz's the only one doing any reporting so there really isn't much news

Maybe it's because of the death scare, or maybe it's just the lack of available information, but on some level I think this is being brushed off. If this were any other recording artist of Wayne's stature I think there'd be much more aggressive media coverage. Imagine if T-Swift or even Eminem or Kanye were in a coma for four days

plus Ross had his bout of seizures a while back that he was able to play off as nothing and so far nothing else major has happened with him so there's a little bit of 'oh this is just something that happens with rappers now i guess'

i mean i guess the lack of solid confirmation of the coma is the major thing. but just being in ICU for that long for any reason seems pretty significant.

he's just resting, nbd

Bigger issue may be, as Jordan mentioned, TMZ is the only one reporting this stuff. I understand it's an unseemly beat, but it shouldn't be the exclusive domain of one not-always reputable news outlet

"Resting"

yeah well the only sources anyone else has are people in wayne's camp, who are saying he's fine. tmz are the only ones w/ moles inside LA hospitals.

i don't think that anyone really believes anyone right now which is why the tone of this is now "who knows what's going on, i guess we'll just wait until wayne says something"

The GQ piece about him a couple years ago was very Truman Show, in a bad way

yo, tone loc had a seizure, too :(

:(

XXL quotes Mack Maine as saying "He's in the hospital regularly," to which XXL added, in brackets "[not ICU]". That would contradict TMZ's report from earlier today that Wayne is still in intensive care.

Mack Maine continued, "I can't really give a comment on his situation right now 'cus we're not really sure, we're just standing by him right now. Like I said, he's in recovery as far as we know, so we're just sitting back, just waiting until he's come fully recovered before we can give a statement."

seems legit

Any word on what this means for I Am Not a Human Being 2? (His publicists, not surprisingly, aren't responding to my inquiries).

"standing by him"

oh i'm sure it's going to come out

nah once someone dies that's it, no new material ever comes out

and rap albums are never, ever delayed

yeah but this one is finished.

they were gonna hold a listening session in nyc last week but it got cancelled (now we know why), but they're not gonna hold it out of stores bcuz of this

i never believe these "he's fine and resting comfortably" press releases, at least not since jerry orbach's reps fooled me with their "he's fine and will resume work within days" reassurances. hope he pulls through.

My fear, and hopefully it's an unlikely one, is that Wayne suffered severe brain damage during or because of the seizure. From what I understand, that doesn't happen too often, but it is a concern. If he has been incapacitated, that puts the label in a really delicate situation

jerry orbach had drank in his cup too iirc
