Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Lil Wayne put out enough material in 2007 to inspire a Vibe magazine list of the 77 best Lil Wayne songs of that year alone. That level of output is the primary reason behind Tha Carter III's bumpy ride. The albums opens well with the appropriately boastful "3 Peat," followed by the symbolic torch-passing of "Mr. Carter," featuring Jay-Z. But nothing matches or exceeds that until the Swizz Beatz-produced lark "Dr. Carter" and the album's arguable high point "Phone Home." Framed by simple, bombastic beats from Cool & Dre, Lil Wayne argues in "Phone Home" that he's so far beyond the competition he's extra-terrestrial. Within that track comes a stellar example of how Weezy's reptilian flow can let an inspired aside such as "I'm rare, like Mr. Clean with hair" slip by almost unnoticed. But no artist this prolific can avoid dropping some duds amongst the winners. The disc's three monster hits sound silly ("Lollipop"), annoying ("A Milli"), and generally uninspired ("Got Money") when stacked up against the non-hits. David Banner's musical backing for "La La" provides the kind of brain-tickling inventiveness that Lil Wayne should always have in order to push his gift for verbal absurdity to greater heights. --Kris Kendall

1.0 out of 5 stars should of delayed it till i died, October 3, 2009
this albums is garbage, the lyrics are trash, i thought when i bought it i was going to bang it up and down the streets but after listing to the whole album i put it through a paper shredder. it was probably the worst album i ever heard in my life, i officially lost all respect for lil Wayne, i don't under stand why sold over a million in one week problaly because of alll the hype. i suggest buying Nas Untitled that some realness right there

* hey weezy thanks for scamming us

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun, stupid, September 11, 2009
By Mr. Ben "ctsamurai" (mid-michigan) - See all my reviews
  
The thing about Tha Carter 3 is that its more like a big party, with Wayne (unfortunately) hosting. So you get some killer beats, good hooks and great guest apperances. but you have to put up with Lil' Wayne, who is one of the silliest spazzes on a mic. Is it fun? Very. I can see why its a chart topper. But its more like a good mix CD than a coherent album spearheaded by the artist.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good - Weezy best Carter yet., April 17, 2009
This definitely tha best Carter yet - and Lil Wayne been doing his thang for a while. Weezy at his finest on the Dedication DJ Drama series and Imma missing what he did in the Mannie Fresh Days - that being said it is a worthwhile buy. Mannie Fresh got a new artist called The Show - and imma gonna recommend checking him out he from New Orleans and lyrically he tight.
