yeah i need to check my fool this is horrific

this thread is going...

http://chuckie.free.fr/pics/20040517/elephant-poop.jpg

the real problem with this record will be the lack of structural verse, lack of understanding much beyond numerological ideology pushed on him and the lack of injected subversive movement, thought into the text rather than pulling words out the air. gddmnt i sound like i'm trying to sell holistic medicine

the prismic entendre is dangerous. wtf was i trying to say

he has an infectuous horde of followers in those who fiend for visceral punchlines while they can't really hear and they imitate. and it's not fair. wayne should write and consider more thoroughly his verse. his gift is pushing so many kids towards off top when they should be writing.

writing for themselves and growth and revision. and boosie is losing too

from what i can hear at least

what's happening these days is that a good writer writes and reads, changing the words as he goes through it live in revision, whereas wayne just considers his offtop good to go at all times

he has too much faith in his sanity maybe

not to say when he shines he doesn't shine bright

i respect his resignation of violence, and his far left lean-- but why does he abuse old symbols for wordplay or whatever you all thought camron did

la la la was real dope though cuz he maintained lyricality and relative meaning throughout the song, which is painfully rare for him

Remember that picture of the dog and the old man? Yeah, that.

^^otm

i still don't totally buy this, wtf

dude

i mean:

"What's up, my nigga?'" Efron says, giving Wayne a pound, a hug, and then, to my astonishment, a full-on kiss reminiscent of the one Wayne famously gave his surrogate father Baby last year. (Needless to say, it's clear that Efron is going to have to work harder to squelch those rumors surrounding his sexuality.)

this was proven to be fake a while ago

i actually WANTED it to be real! oh well.

is "ben westhoff" ethan's pen name?

still, it was funnier than this:

Although Lil Wayne's Tha Carter III has been delayed numerous times in the past six months, it is finally expected to come out in March or April. The new album's official single, "Lollipop," features Static and reportedly will be serviced to radio shortly. And while Wayne is always in demand to do collaborations on other people's records, his own album is loaded with special guests too, including Hurricane Chris, Corey Gunz, Tyga, Jibbs, Shanell, Kidd Kidd, Mack Maine and Lil Mama.

"It's one of those albums people are really waiting on, so I made it so that whatever is on it will stick with you forever," he told Billboard.com. "I'm taking my time with it. And I'm giving artists I respect and people I want to do songs with -- not songs the label fixed -- an opportunity to collaborate... I think this album is going to be one of my best albums. I'm a true perfectionist. I might have to work out a deal with Universal to shoot a video to for all these songs, that's how crazy they all are. Every one of them is a movie."

Yet another report w/ a different lead single title, and a really weird guest list. Still, giving all the features to one-hit kiddie rappers would be in a weird way honoring his roots, and would probably still be better than the usual "anti-climactic song with Jay-Z, anti-climactic song with Eminem" formula that you get with most would-be blockbuster rap albums these days.

corey gunz!!! hahahe he must read bronxrap.com too

he's missing skyzoo and papoose though

that's the same guest list that was in the billboard article, but the billboard article made it seem like those were other ppl in the "lollipop" (<-this is gonna suck so much, esp. if it's anything like "grown man") video rather than ppl on the album

wtf @ guest list

i read that when it came out in the city pages and it was just like...what? it seemed like something you'd read in one of those local college onion clones or something, just dumb and a waste of a page

nah, Billboard article doesn't say they're all on that song:

The new album's official single, the Deezle-produced "Lollipop," features Static and will be serviced to radio shortly. A video for it was recently shot in Las Vegas. Other guests on the set include Hurricane Chris, Corey Gunz, Tyga, Jibbs, Shanell, Kidd Kidd, Mack Maine and Lil Mama. Jim Jonsin, the Alchemist and Cool and Dre contributed production.

I'm not gonna assume the song is garbage just because it's called "Lollipop," but yeah that's not an encouraging title. But I still kinda like the idea of Wayne embracing his role as the first "Lil" rapper to make the A-list and going back and encouraging the current ones coming up.

lil mama is great

save it for the teenpop thread.

OR FOR THE "SHAWTY GET LOSE" THREAD

"SHAWTY GET LOOSE" THREAD TOO!

I only save Yankovic.jpg for the "Shawty Get Loose" thread.

i'd be curious to know this:

do even the most ardent wayne fans actually think this is going to be close to a classic by now?

i mean, is it even going to be an above average major label rap record?

executive producer: george lucas

i don't think there is any way he has it in him to top tha carter II or even dedication 2. i think you define his career on those two, and since i'd say carter II is the best rap album of the decade and dedication 2 almost (almost) as good, it's obvious where i stand.

will he even ever have a single as good as "go dj"?

how the fuck do you define Lil Wayne's career without a single Mannie Fresh beat?
