This is one of the only Lil Wayne albums I can respect and the follow up to his previous album The Carter II. It reached the no1 in the US and has sold 3.6million copies there so far which makes this his best selling album to date. I know he is one of those rappers that you can love or hate, and it's easy to say you don't like him cause of how he looks or some of the lines he raps, but there is denying that he has talent. The guy can rhyme words like there is no tomorrow and as usual I will review my favourite tracks here. 3 Peat ~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the track that opens the album and is not much about the tune, but more Lil Wayne to show off ...  Read the complete review

Lil Wayne had actually struggled to become the prominent superstar prior to the jaw dropping success that this album has achieved. Now I had heard Lil Wayne prior to this album on both mixtapes and on the album The Carter 11 and therefore was intrigued to see what the hype was really about. The initial impressions were not good. I don't like the beats, the production to me sounds dull as dishwater and a very strange choice to use as sonic landscapes. This album's success has no doubt benefited greatly by the mainstream appeal of Lollipop. I don't really need to explain this one, but suffice to say I can not stand it's corny message and equally corny sound. In ...  Read the complete review

Being someone that listens to a range of music, from Cradle of Filth to Boyzone to Eminem, Lil Wayne was one of the artists that I felt I had to listen to! I found, when I began listening to this album that although I adore the way that Lil Wayne's voice sounds it is a somewhat select taste. That being said, I think this album is outstanding! There are a range of songs, that differ from being slow, to ones that are more upbeat. I must have listened to the album at least 100 times in the past month, and there is only one fault that I can find with it. The tracks can be somewhat repetitive in places. Having sold over 6 million albums over his career and this album ...  Read the complete review

"Lil Wayne", aka Weezy or Dwayne Carter, is back. I knew instantly when i saw the CD that it was not going to be one i'd buy in haste with hope and end up ripping some saddo off with on ebay before "dinner!" was yelled. And i was right. Lil Wayne has expanded his teenage success, bank account(s), and weed stock with "Tha Carter III". To be honest, i hadn't even heard much of him before a friend introduced me to his slick r'n'b rap and several trillion tattooes...and i'm glad she did. With my favourites being...well...most of the songs on there,...Weezy has made this one seem effortless. But i can't get enough of "Mrs ...  Read the complete review
