For those who have been waiting on The Carter III album you won't
be disappointed!!!! Despite losing his number 1 spot on MTV Hottest MC's
List (http://www.mtv.com/bands/h/hip_hop_week/2007/hottest/) to
Kanye West this album will surely put him back in the drivers seat.
This albums release is marred by it's leaking but still stands up to all the hype.
Who knows how the album would have sounded if not attacked by numerous DJs.
Just listening to the album their are numerous songs that were slated to be on the album
but because of DJs and companies such as The Empire which is owned by Fatt Matt (who
pulled a straight white man rippin off the black talent) (shouts out to
Tone from Blazing Mixtapes), songs like "Gossip", "I feel like dying"
and maybe even "Prostitute flange" could have made the album.
The first time I listened to the album I thought is was way off
base and was a disappointment, but that might have been because I was
listening to the album with 6 other people and we were all talkin, laughing
and drinkin throughout the whole album. On second listen which was alone
u can see where Weezy F was goin with the album, he didn't stick to
the script (which was a good thing) he stepped out on a ledge with such
tracks as "comfortable" featuring baby face which in my opinion was the
second worse track on the album and the worse was the T Pain track.
Even though he has done tracks with Robin Thicke before he was a nice
surprise, to hear their new track "Tie my hands" which is a hit as soon
as it hits the air ways. "Shoot Me Down" which has a chours similar to
Lupe's super star was also really good.
Now to the hottest of the hot "Mr. Carter" featuring the other Mr.
Carter, this is by far one of the best songs on the album. It Was hot
like fuckin ya girl in 100 degree heat. It also seemed like a passing of
the torch not that we're putting Jay out to pasture lol. The calabo
with Ghetto Fab and The Swagg Splasher himself Juelz Santana was also a
heat maker. "Dr. Carter" is a great concept song. And weezy tears the
walls down on "A Milli" as if his name was Wesley Pipes lol (that was for
the porn lovers). All in all this is a 4 taper if I was rating it like
Rap mullet (www.rapmullet.com).....
