lol who knows wtf i'm talking abt half the time

Due to Jim Morrison's increasing alcoholism and interest in poetry, guitarist Robby Krieger has a stronger presence on The Soft Parade than on any other Doors album from the Morrison era,

Seems similar to what went on with Tha Carter IV, subbing alcohol for promethazine

yeah Krieger's verse on "6 Foot 7 Foot" was dope

"Pop that pussy for a real nigga
Pull out my black card, that's my lil' nigga
Make a movie with your bitch, Steven Spiel nigga
Smoking on Keysh, Cole, gimme me chills nigga"

jesus god

lol yeah that's in the category of supremely lazy "I'm on One"/"No New Friends"/that one Jeremih song verses, I don't know how dude can think that "laid-back" style comes off well

I like the "what's your real name" bit though

it's been so long since a wayne song made me this happy that it almost feels weird

huh i'll have to click that

he's gotten to the point where if i see he's a guest verse i won't even listen to the song

he's had some good ones lately, i really like the rick ross single he's on too

wow, shipley endorsement is no joke

"thug cry" is really good. i was in miami for a few weeks right after mastermind dropped and radio there had already picked it up. it sounded really good on the radio so i'm glad it's trickling out.

Think "Bigger Than Life" on the Rich Gang album of all things may be the dividing line between wack/dope recent Wayne

thoughts?

like it like i liked IANAHB2

it's ok
i like "Believe Me" w/him and Drake

It's just ok. I like that he's trying, but this one is not up to the level of Believe Me or D'usse.

This beat is crappy

bad song. i just wrote about old wayne tho: http://noisey.vice.com/blog/lil-waynes-tha-carter-ten-years-later

"believe me" is great this isn't that great but his rapping still sounds pretty good

when he really starts to get in a rhythm like on the third verse here you can hear him sounding belabored but it's better than his "i'm the shit like a dog's butthole" shtick of the last 5 years

I really hate "Believe Me," just dreary all-around, bummed too cuz his thought a bunch of his guest verses leading up to it were dope

"D'usse" I'm cool with though, and this one to a lesser degree

i'm maybe the only person who has a soft spot for post-C3/pre-No Ceilings unhinged-autotune Wayne though (relistening to certain songs of the unofficial Hottest Nigga Under the Sun tape recently in particular, which I don't think I heard except in pieces when it initially dropped) and he's clearly not coming back heh

yeah "Believe Me" is so-so by Drake standards and awful by Carter lead single standards, amazed how many people say it's fire. "D'usse" is awesome and i'm so depressed that it's already being treated like the kind of semi-forgotten promo single that gets left off of albums entirely.

Drake's had a handful of new tracks this year where people've been "omg FIRE, he's spittin' man" and I just don't get it. Dude's literally the first consensus rapper of recent years where I don't mess with his music, I thought NWTS might change that cuz I really dug "Hold On" but nope

found this when looking for an article on Weezy's lyrical 'progression' over the years. I knew he was into terrible shit 'puns'/wordplay but seeing it all in one place points out that he, uh, has a problem!

http://noisey.vice.com/blog/a-comprehensive-guide-to-lil-waynes-poop-references

main takeaway from that article is that Miley Cyrus looked better with her old hair

really though Drake's the one who made the song that sounds the most like a toilet ("Make Me Proud")

I cannot stand Wayne or any of his derivative flock. "Young Money". What a creative name…

has anyone else noticed this? i swear they modeled it after him. Whack as fuck

Wayne has a lot of non-Young Money rappers deriving from different aspects of his style over the years, I would not call him himself derivative. although you said "his flock" so ok

One main criticism I have of Wayne since Carter IV or so, maybe a little earlier, is that his wordplay's gotten more obtuse? Possibly a better word for it

I mean something like "if snow fell like hoes fell in love I'd be a snowman" off the last Khaled album is super-wtf and even on "D'usse" with "real niggas don't whine, we'll burn down your vineyard" for example it just doesn't have the cleverness of his best stuff

yeah he definitely hit a point where he kept trying at punchlines but his standards for what constituted a punchline dropped precipitously. the fake deep almost-wordplay like "when a wolf cry wolf, you still see that wolf's teeth."

for a song called "Grindin'" the new Wayne/Drake song is pretty limp.

i'd blame Drake but Wayne mixing the Young Thug inflection (master becomes the student) & Migos flow and coming up with BS is p lame

Really feeling a lot of IANAHB2 lately and I thought it sucked when it dropped bar two songs. It's the least fucks given of any Wayne project ever and I respect that in a sense, plus he goes in on a bunch of tracks

I'm in a definite not taking bullshit zone after a mad stressful week lol so maybe that's why

I love how this has become the default Wayne thread.

lol

I also feel shit like "Romance" is way realer than any Drake-fronting sensitive-to-these-hoes bullshit, vulgarity and all

actually Wayne's good at those type of songs in general. "I'm Single," "Throw It in the Bag" remix, probably other shit I'm forgetting

Agreed. I'm Single and Romance are among his best songs.

"Gunwalk" is my stopplayingwithmebadBayAreadrivers song and "Romance" is my super-into this chick who I got one more day with cuz she's moving tomorrow song lol

actually you can sub "Beat the Shit" for "Gunwalk" on the first one heh

went through some Idon'tgetit BS with this chick I was originally feeling closer and closer to last night, chick out put on "Anaconda" and I was gonna go nuts lol, immediately put on a few songs from this album + other shit

wtf he did a collabo with 2 Chainz? lord step away for two minutes

What's wrong w 2 Chainz

I like Chainz, but can't imagine Wayne can hold his own w/ him at this stage is all

which is to say his dadjoek game is weak now

2 Chainz definitely carries it but it's a fun project, "MFN Right" is the shit

MFN Right kinda came out first on that solo Chainz tape

is he still annoying

Yes

Liked his verse on Seeing Green, though.

not easy Seeing Green

Great verse on "Timeless" by Bennie the Butcher
