I'm good on Lil' Wayne

RIP to the Old Lil Wayne!

Growing up, I was a die-hard CASH MONEY, 504 Boys, Lil' Wayne fan. I knew all the songs, and the words to those songs. This was when Lil' Wayne made sense to me. When he was raw and talented! When he had drive to want to be the best at what he did and not produce just any kind of crap, for the sake of having a recording contract or trying to make bank off songs. The Lil' Wayne who wasn't trying to be a "Rock Star", which I still don't know who planted that idea in his head. They need to be shot ASAP! I miss "The Carter 2" lil' Wayne, when he had tracks that spot to the soul and made the brain wonder because his diction was so clever that you had to break down the message! For example, "Hustler's Music" in my opinion, was the song that made me realize that Wayne wasn't someone to be reckon with. I would give anything for Wayne to make an album like "The Carter 2" again. But, now this fool is trying to be something that he's not for the sake of being on top. I like to think of it as a sell-out and confined to a small box called POP music.

This new, supposedly "Best Rapper Alive" is actually a bunch of bull-shit because I don't feel like Wayne hasn't moved forward. Like I said, Wayne is now stuck in this POP music box, where he's reached mainstream population and sold this 1.5 million copies for "The Carter 3", --what I think is considered a cup coaster to be sat on the table-- and the album really isn't that great of a job, if you ask me! I mean, it's not that bad, but it's not the old Wayne. And then he had the nerve to try and do a Rock album back in 2009. Like that was a hot mess.com. Off that album, I probably liked one song and that was "Prom Queen". He was a fool for pretending like he can play the guitar too. I was stunned and appauld then, and still am now. Wayne's decision to rock was the biggest failure for his career ever! Now, today's Wayne has the same sounding beats, same lines "Young Mula Bayyyybeeeeyyy" and "Weezy F. Baby.... the F is for_______ <<< insert word of his choice" and the same featured artists, which is Rick Ross, Drake and Nicki Minaj. I won't sit here and say I completely shut off Lil' Wayne and his new music, but I prefer to listen to old Wayne compared to now!

I mean I guess I understand the direction and aim that he's trying to go into, which is every artist's dream of being the most prominent in their category, but I just feel like he's stopped being that New Orleans Rapper with a true Louisiana accent and traded himself in for a pair of Vans, some skinny jeans, and a skateboard! And we all know it's because of fortune and fame! C'mon Wayne. I know that old Lil' Wayne still runs through your veins, just let the world and myself have him again, even if it's for one night only!
