Top 5: Best Tracks On Tha Carter III

carter3

The last post for Tha Carter III week lol. I list the top 5 songs on the album in my opinion, let me know if you agree or disagree.

5. Nothin On Me - The song may actually better if Lil Wayne’s verse was taken out. Fabolous & Juelz killed their verses and Lil Wayne provided a hot chorus.

Don’t be murdered over your song before you ad-lib it
I pop up like Xzibit, forgiven I’m at your crevace
Not to put no fuckin fish’ tanks in your Civics (no)
Fuck getting your ride pimped, you’ll get hog tied, wimp
Have you in the trunk curled up like fried shimp (ah hah hah)
It’s been a good year maybe I should ride a blimp
Cause your boy just stay above the game
They tryin’ to tag ‘em, spray a brother frame
But your shots can’t reach me, I’m way above your aim

-Fabolous

4. Mr.Carter - This is the highly anticipated track with Jay-Z. The sample and beat go together perfectly. Jay-Z delivers a hot verse and Lil Wayne is a little random but does his thing.

Far from average, Above status-
Quo, Flow, So, Pro
I know
I rise slow
And when I pass
They say “what up, killer man?” Stop bringing up my past!
And next time you mention Pac, Biggie,
And Jay-Z
Don’t forget Weezy
Baby!

3. Dr.Carter - Lil Wayne delivers a very creative track as he acts as a doctor for Hip Hop. Each verse is dedicated to a different aspect, style, respect & swagger. This kind of track reminds me of something Nas would do and  it shows diversity from Lil Wayne.

His Blood Starting To Flow.
His Lungs Starting To Grow.
This One Starting To Show.
Strong Signs Of Life.
Wheres The Stiches Heres The Knife.
Smack His Face His Eyes Open I Reply What A Night.
Welcome Back Hip Hop I Saved Your Life.

2. Shoot Me Down- Fire beat with a rock influence and sample. Lil Wayne delivers hot metaphors like, “I sweat money and the bank is my shower.”

i aint kind hot i’m sauna
i sweat money and the bank is my shower
haha and that pistol is my towel
ha so stop sweatin me coward
and i would die for ours ride for ours supply the flowers
this is history in the making now shut the f**k up and let me make it

1. Let The Beat Build - Cant help but blast this track, “Now that’s how you let the beat build Bitch!” Classic random lines by Lil Wayne but the shit sounds hot. The beat is crazy, Kanye West did his thing. Lil Wayne changing his flow made the song even hotter.

And yeah, we sell em’, i know u smell em’
So if u want it, You could just yell it
Be in the morning at your telly
Whole keys go for twenty, half a key go for eleven, after me there will be nothing
I am Legend and I Will Smith
Now that’s how you let the beat build, bitch

TOP 5 (from best to okay)

1. Doctor Carter
2. Let the Beat Build
3. Mr. Carter
4. La La La
5. Playin with fire (sucks he had to recycle a verse but it sounds better then it did on the other beat)

and I have a question…in Doctor Carter, Lil wayne talks about recyclin lines and says Doctor Kanye West is one of the brightest. Is he taking a shot at Kanye for recyclin lines or is he just sayin thats what it is and thats how its done.

It’s funny how these gay niggas talk shit then post their Top 5: You Guys are so fuckin’ stoopid!!!

5. LA LA - Banner killed the beat and Busta went in, Brisco yeeahhh, and Weezy did him

4. Mrs. Officer - The hook is crazy and when he said “all she want to do is fuck the police”

3. Tie My Hands / Phone Home - It’s a toss up! He shows you dickheads that Juvenile taught him how to put a song together. We are not the same I am a Martian.

2. Mr./Dr. Carter - Jay made the track, but they both went in. The concept was cool.

1. Let The Beat Build - MURDER!!!

Quotable - “I just do this for my Clique/Click like Adam Sandler,

I swear that global warming is being caused by the haters on this site. You must first understand that yall mama’s ain’t shit. If they were, they would have taught yall dickless, bitch ass, bipolar, losers that “If you have nothing nice to say….” I guess my mom ain’t shit either.

You can’t even congratulate someone on a good album. I think that the album is what hip hop was missing. His album does not have a lot of violence and it’s not that misogynistic, but your man’s and them is hotter. You wonder why he sold 400K in a day, he’s good.

The dude has been rapping since eleven and couldn’t curse. He dropped two albums before he could curse, that’s why he is the best rapper alive.

Shout Out to artists like Max B, Saigon and Pap. I’m too fuckin’ wavy!!! OOOOWWWWWWWWWW!

2. Misunderstood
3. 3 peat
4. Shoot me down
5. Nothing on me.

The album is ok. It’s not a classic by no means. Damn!!! Weezy. But he did attempt to do some concept records; Dr. Carter and Phone Home. The beats on the album were shitty. Where the producers from the Carter II???

I must be not smokin that good shit that everyone else is smokin. please lemme know where i can get some because i was not feeling the album at all.

Did ya really listen to it or is just the same ol’ hype bandwagon?!!

5. Comfortable
4. Misunderstood
3. Mrs. Officer
2. Nothin On Me
1. Mr. Carter

The album is average at best. The dude is taking samples everywhere just for a hook. If the hook is not on some catchy shit, then its hard to listen to the whole song because his shit is str8 annoying. Those songs I mentioned are DECENT except Mr. Carter.

My nigga J Rich is on point with his shit son. The album is not worth being called a classic.

I give it 3 out of 5.

kuncedlb wrote on June 18th, 2008 at 1:30 pm

I think this album would be appreciated a lot more if so many songs weren’t leaked and also wayne does his thing lyrically and creativly when he is not “locked” into a song mode/ for example he kills every ft. And his mixtapes……well everyone knows he gets busy, he dumbs out. The nigga need to make an album with the mentality of just goin in the studio and murderin a track, not so much focusing on that “carter 3″ shit cuz he aint deliver like he do on the mixtape seen. Wayne is like kobe..he tryna live up to a legend but he can’t match that legacy on paper. How many rings jordan got??? Kobe??? Jay sold how many platinum albums??? Wayne??

3 Mr carter-the best raper in the game and the up and coming raper

4 shoot me down

5 comfortable

Tha Carter III is fire, no doubt but ppl will still hate regardless if you think his metaphors sound childish you oviously dnt realize how creative he is and he does it with no effort.

best tracks on da album are

1. Lisa Marie ( somethin 4 da ladies, real sweet)
2. Shoot me down ( no words to describe how hot dis song is)
3. Mr. carter( hey mr.carter tell me where u been, luv it and jay-z added extra spice 2 it)
4.Dontgetit( very meaningful song da whole 10 min)
5. Comfortable(everybody can relate 2 dis one)
