honestly this was fine

it’s no C2 or C3, but it’s solid. think it’s the same thing as usual. people just get stuck in an echo camber and like the memes without even listening to the music itself because it’s the “current topic” and they feel the need join in and have an opinion on it

even the elephant song was fun; who else could rap on a beat that stupid and still spazz?

mixing was trash though, ngl

edit: except "Island Holiday" - that's the worst song i've heard in a minute

It’s not the beats, because if a rapper with a more “artsy” or “experimental” image had the same beats it would be received different.

Wayne is “out of touch” because the world is too serious for him now. And pretentious fans who were raised on Kendrick’s skit heavy “important statement” albums just don’t respect or connect with Wayne. (outside paying lip service to his influence)

The “lack of direction” comment makes complete sense if you just compare this album to the previous entry in the series.

C5 is a focused album that sounds like it was made intentionally.

C6 sounds like 19 random ass songs thrown together

Wayne had a great run.

Tha Block Is Hot (1999) up until C4 (2011) he was a major force.

I’ve literally been down since Tha Block Is Hot.

His mixtape run is goated. I’ll forever have memories of TDIO2 and DD3 when I was in college. Smoking in my dorm room out the window to “Kush” lol.

C3 first listen was a life memory.

Peanuts & Elephant should had featured Eminem. Make it as legendary as the encore stinkers

He still got a classic in him. Just needs better beats

Yeah, this album is bad. There's no need for me to give my full thoughts on it because then it would just be a waste of time. The album flat out sucks. I do agree with the people who said this album would be better received if it was called "I Am Not a Human Being 3". That part is true.

What I will say is, Mannie Fresh NEEDS to fully produce Lil Wayne's next album. "Bein Myself" is classic Lil Wayne. That song and the production is really damn good. By far my favorite track on the album.

This album is easily better than c5. C5 reception was like the inverse of this album, an echo chamber of positivity instead of negativity. I understand people who aren't Wayne fans being scared of the guitar and singing on the album, but for Wayne stans to be upset about Island Holiday and especially If I Played Guitar is surprising to me. The voice and flows on this album are way better than C5, C5 just had better features (more so in the sense that people were excited to hear the futures, the names didn't have negative sentiment already attached to them, not necessarily speaking on the actual performance of the features), and did a better job of building an aesthetic. Maybe that made it more cohesive but that was due more to ancillary additions then it was the actual music.

The aesthetic was helped mostly due to the goodwill Wayne had built up from his label situation and mental health talks (the Solange feature, a great feature, but reception to this never made sense, was far from the first time Wayne had talked about shooting himself). Adding his mom and having a couple explicitly "deep" songs really helped spell it out for people.
