Review of Lil Wayne’s Dr. Carter

The track first off is sick; Swizz drops another heater reminding one of days of early hip hop tracks that used a easy bass and drum pattern. I can hear a variety of different MCs spitting over this track and Move n the Crowd (hint hint).

Wayne pulls together a track similiar to the way he did his first album taking you on a journey patient by patient and painting a story about what's going on drawing you further into the track. Question, where has this Wayne been? The recycling line yo its biting lol not recycling...lol just a word to the wise.

The first two verses were unexpected but here comes the final verse and here it comes back gushing fast and hard the weak side of Wayne. The cockiness that he has saved hip hop's life...nah not so much. If Wayne were to drop consistent flows similiar to the first two verses on a regular basis then I would say here is a ray of hope.

The delivery throughout the song was good, it made sense and was not a bunch of gibberish. He didn't just keep saying the same thing over and over and over again, but chill with the female references man. I mean its like in every song he has to let the world know he is straight; I mean stop kissing another man infront of the cameras and there will be no issues.

The track is ok but not overly impressed with it. On a scale of 5 meals I will give this a 3.5 as well. Pointing in the right direction but not greatness
