Should I buy the Lil Wayne Carter III LP?

I listen to too much disco and modern soul, and I need some good hip-hop in my life again. I don't want to become a hip-hop dinosaur, so I am open to embracing current music. Will this LP fulfill these requirements, and will this be a good purchase? Edit: While I am not looking for gangster, I am not scared of gangster music either.DISCUSS

    Yes buy it, it's a great album. Buy the new scarface and the last 2 killer mike releases as well if you want some "gangster" shit.

    Yes. Also get the last Lil Wayne Mixtape. It's about as good as the album IMO.

    Thanks, but is this some blog only download thing? How do I get this?

    If you're talking about Dedication 3 that comparison is nuts. D3 is kinda weak, not even a worthy compliment to the album.

    Donger, if you're asking literally about the vinyl LP of C3 beware: the dbl LP is the first half of the album... there's supposed to be a 2nd dbl LP but its been so long delayed I don't know if its even going to get pressed. There is a 12" EP of the bonus CD (The Leak: tracks which were going to be on the original C3) and its great.

    I don't see myself copping the vinyl, this is more of an itunes purchase for me, something I can listen to when riding my bike/working out.

    Is "the Leak"bonus cd tracklist:
    I'm Me
    Gossip
    Kush
    Love Me Or Hate Me
    Talking About It

    I might get that too, matter of fact it almost sounds better than the LP based on the short itunes clips.

    Does this have more to do with your general tastes in rap music?

    I mean the i-album is entertaining me.

    I can get tired of this stuff pretty quick though. That's why I won't buy the vinyl LP. I can't see myself getting emotionally attached to The Carter III. I just don't relate to the lyrics on some deep level. It is a fun listen though.

    word, i hear you. i bought the album on cd and tried to like it. its cool, its just not the stuff that gets me amped. lil wayne is one of the best rappers out right now though. blows rick ross out of the water. speaking of which, what happened to that dude?
  • DongerDonger 854 Posts
    It seems like Lil Wayne is one of the hardest working rappers right now. I have to at least give him that, dude is really trying his hardest to be number one, and I think that is definitely part of the appeal.
