Easily. It will go down as the ONE album that defines Cash Money IMO. How can it not? It's when people started to look at Lil Wayne seriously.

Last album with Mannie Fresh on production (absolute classic beats from start to finish), and Wayne trying out a fresh style for the first time sounding hungry, just hungry. It is a classic, and his best work. Carter 2, and the unreleased Carter 2 songs with Mannie on the boards is a close second.

Carter 1 has Gillie's influence all over it, for the hearing impaired out there. Study 'Bring it Back", Wayne is using Gillie's flow. People that can pick up on flows naturally will have noticed this from the start.

I agree, it had a theme, largely because of Fresh's consistency with the beats and Wayne still keeping that New Orleans vibe while trying out a new and improved style, at the time there was nothing like it.

All in all, his best work. Deserves to be rated as a classic IMO

Maybe Young Money because Cash Money will forever be defined by 400 Degrees followed closely by Choppa City in the Ghetto and Guerilla Warfare.
