Lil Wayne – Tha Carter IV
Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV is finally here and well-worth the wait. Weezy is still at the top of his game. His flows are impeccable and his punchlines are as vivid as ever. Tha Carter IV boasted an impressive guest list from Rick Ross, Drake, Nas, Jadakiss, Bun B to Cory Gunz, but Weezy is still in the spotlight. Because even when he rhymes at ease, his guest stars have to push themselves hard to keep up with him. Weezy has his way with the beats on highlights including “Blunt Blowin’,” “MegaMan,” “President Carter,” “John” (featuring Rick Ross) and “So Special” (featuring John Legend). “How to Love” is the weakest track on the album. Weezy needs to get off the Auto-Tune singing.
