What About Me down to Problems is all trash. That little patch of songs will be removed from my copy.

I also spoke too soon, seems Drake sent Wayne a little vocal sample for Hittas. Plus he was on Believe ME which was originally a single for C5 so I guess I can't say he self fish :jbhmm:

That's more than Eminem. :wow:

Is that more then Travis Scott?

How much did Drake do again?

I have to look this shyt up :jbhmm:

Edit: Drake did 700k and Travis did 537k for comparison.

That's dope for Wayne.

This may be an unpopular opinion but I think The Carter V is better than the Carter 3:yeshrug:

And I'm not counting the C3 leaks either.

The Carter 2
The Carter
The Carter V
The Carter III
The Carter IV

That's how I would rank the series.

With C5, Wayne showed growth and finally accepted being the old head/OG in the game. The rapping seemed effortless, had great energy, constantly switched up flows, his voice sounded good no slurring, didn't go crazy with the autotune, more clever bars instead of weak punchlines related to sex.

Again, he could had gotten stronger production and trimmed down the album to make it more cohesive but I think the album flows really well giving it has 23 songs. The most impressive thing for me is that Wayne kept my attention for the duration of the album.


The album started off well and ended well. I'm just glad to see Wayne get his moment and appreciation for what he's done for Hip-Hop. With lyrcisim becoming more obselete in the game, Wayne is needed.

He's got a few decent songs but he ain't never really been my style...seems like he's more for pot heads

I was never a really big fan and preferred Wayne in small samples preferably on songs with Drake and Minaj

I was one of those dudes in 2006 who said these 90s babies are on crack for hyping this guy

He honestly is like the original mumble rapper

The Godfather of mumble rap
