seriously... this guy has some decent wordplay, but there is no way i will think about this album in a months time.... on the other hand i still listen to illmatic, blueprint, capital punishment or OBFCL.... this will not even be close... a mere filler for a boring summer of hip hop

I can understand how people like him, but I just can't see how so many people can call him the best in the game today, or anytime.

If I hear him I nod my head a bit, but I can hardly remember what he said. His flows have zero impact on me. To me he fits in the "popcorn flick" ranking of MCs.. But I will give him upper tier of that group

The exact opposite for me. You really have to listen in to get anything. That and I love how he always shouts out pop culture stuff. "popcorn" is a good label, but in a good way. I'm definitely a fan of The Drought 3 and I can't Feel my Face instead of his other stuff.

But is this really all that's in the foreseeable future for him? I was hoping for The Drought 4 this summer.

For real. Actually Bun-B just dropped Trill II. I need to pick that up for my summer fix

I have listened to him. And I walk away with nothing. Everytime. Nothing sticks, I never think about what he said nor does it seem to have anything to do with real life to me. Of course because I am not a real fan of his so I have not listened to all that he has done. But from what I heard of him it has no impact.

I am not going to lie, I am not looking for so hip-hoppy "backpacking" MC (while I do enjoy that music too) so it isn't about that, my favorite rapper is E40, I feel him, and what he says I can really relate to from my life (on the West coast I guess). But Lil Weezy doesn't do that for me
 
Yeah, I didn't mean to get anything substantial. :lol There's nothing there with any real meaning to take away- hence the "popcorn" label. But actually listening to his words will make you enjoy any of his songs 100% more.

I do listen to his lyrics. I keep trying to find the "greatness" that everyone is talking about. But to me it isn't there.

Ok, gave the album about 5 full listens and he needs Gillie back. It boggles my mind how this could be called a great "album" cause it plays like a mixtape to me(sans dr. Carter)

I kinda figured this album wouldn't do it for me after hearing his mixtapes the past 2 years. Such a shame since he finally broke through on "The Carter"
 
I listened to it today and it seemed like it'd be better than I thought it was going to be, and then he felt the need to throw himself in with pac and big and jay on mr carter. Why? Why wont he just shut the fuck up?

I guess that's a lot to ask from a rapper.

Oh god, another Gillie dickrider. What kind of writing output does that guy have with the amount of tracks Wayne blesses between albums? If this guy was so damn good, why doesn't he launch his own career?

Wayne has been good all by himself. He doesn't need some mythical ghostwriting legend. He just needs Universal to select from the myriad of hot tracks he lays down on mixtapes. PEACE.

lol Gillie dickrider? He's garbage on his own tracks but his ghostwriting for wayne was superb. And don't tell me what kind of career wayne has had, I guarentee I've been listening to him longer than you and believe when I say Gillie made him relevant again, its the truth. Especially here up north.

Dude, listen to his Show Me what You Got song. He fucking spouts out Mortal Kombat references,

I got that Sub-Zero flow how you own me man.
Nigga get over here like scorpion.

In some of his songs mentions the ninja turtles, how he stays up like Viagra and goes down like Niagra, And says these niggas is like "Boom. Headshot."

How can you not like this guy?

Scarface, I'm Me, I Feel Like Dying, Kush (La La), Gossip, One Night Only, Love Me or Hate Me, Something You Forgot... these are all tracks that should have made Carter 3.

Awesome man, thanks. I have most of these songs but with stupid DJ voiceovers.

Did "I can't feel my face" ever drop? or just that one bootleg.

Wayne's been relevant here in the south since he was a hot boy. List all the tracks he worked on. He can't make a legit claim to much besides having Wayne rock his chain in a video. Even if you believe his claim to have written most of Carter, there's still the issue of all the tracks since then. It's disingenuous to credit Wayne's career or relevance to Gillie. PEACE.

Great man, I can't believe I missed this on the previous page.
 
"I'm a doctor so they don't understand my writing."

I was like oooooooooh shit. I know when my doctor writes notes I can't even begin to understand what the hell he wrote.
 
Methodman, can you upload the audio files once again? I tried to get it and it didn't work. I just discovered ''I'm me'' a couple of days ago and I'm simply amazed by the quality of this track. :D

Yeah I know. Haven't listened to the songs enough.

What the fuck is he saying?

Yes, do this. Everyone, do this. II Trill is as hot as the fucking sun, and Weezy's guest spot on there is as good as the best on C3.

That being said, I'm loving C3. I expect tons of critical backlash and I'm sure the mainstream won't know what to do with it. But I'm loving the shit out of the album. "Phone Home" kills it.

he needs Mannie back

Bun B has so much game it is crazy

Yes, yes he does. This album is leagues better than Trill in my opinion. If "Good II Me" isn't blaring out of car stereos all summer, I give up on people ever having good taste.
 
Supposedly (going by the interview with Drama), they've already gotten together and done a couple tracks with Mannie on the boards.
