Lil Wayne - Rebirth (Deluxe Version) (Album) [iTunes Plus AAC M4A]

Genres: Hip-Hop/Rap, Music, Rock, Hard Rock, Dirty South, Rap
Released: Feb 02, 2010

Lil Wayne’s whole career is premised on avoiding the obvious. When his weird rap opus Tha Carter III became a sales phenomenon, the obvious thing to do would be to follow it up with more of the same. But because Wayne is Wayne he followed it up with Rebirth, an album of abrasive alternative rock. You have to admire an artist who is more comfortable in unfamiliar territory than he is on his regular turf. Rebirth may have been the last thing Wayne’s fans wanted, but no one can say that the music herein is not 100% true to its author’s personality. Wayne is a great lyricist, but Rebirth is predicated more on attitude than rhyme styles, and any true Wayne will tell you that his attitude and delivery are just as essential as his writing. “Drop the World” and “Knockout” rely on few words, but everything Wayne has to say is expressed in his vocalizing, which is in turns lusty, tortured, but always irrepressible. The musical choices of Rebirth are at times inaccessible and puzzling, but listen without expectations and you will receive what is arguably Wayne’s most revealing statement as a pop star.

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III (Album) [iTunes Plus AAC M4A]

Genres: Hip-Hop/Rap, Music, Rap, Hardcore Rap, Dirty South
Released: Aug 19, 2008

Lil Wayne is not rap’s most successful artist, but he is undoubtedly its most unpredictable. In an industry that becomes more inhibited and conservative with each passing year, Wayne is one of the few million-dollar pop stars who refuses to color inside the lines. His much-anticipated Tha Carter III is far from perfect; most glaringly, it lacks focus. But then again this album’s jarring collection of styles is what makes it exciting, and what makes it so definitively Wayne. No one could make Weezy choose between the Jamaican infusions of “Mrs. Officer” and “A Milli,” the vintage soul of “Mr. Carter” and “Dr. Carter” and “Let the Beat Build,” and the pop subversions of “La La” and “Lollipop.” They are all equal parts of Wayne’s personality, and Tha Carter III accords them all equal space. And the lyrics? Suffice it to say that Wayne is the most quotable man in music, and he uses his voices in ways that makes other rappers appear timid and banal. Not since Prince has a mainstream artist been as endlessly inspired by his own unconscious and as unafraid to follow his own muse.

Birdman & Lil Wayne - Like Father Like Son (Album) [iTunes Plus AAC M4A]

Genres: Hip-Hop/Rap, Music, Dirty South
Released: Oct 31, 2006

Cash Money CEO Birdman is not a rapper by trade, but he has enough clout and gritty New Orleans attitude to pull off albums of his own. Of course, Birdman is only the name on the marquee — the star of this show is Lil Wayne. It’s easy to assume that Like Father Like Son would be stronger as a Wayne solo album, but that theory discounts the ways in which Birdman and Wayne’s voices blend and complement each other. Birdman’s stolid, workmanlike delivery is the perfect set-up for Wayne’s mischievous detours. When they collaborate on the perfectly pitched sticky soul of “1st Key” or “Don’t Die” it's hard to imagine a more effective duo. Still, Like Father Like Son catches Wayne in the middle of his banner season (2006-2007), and he gets all the best lines. “About All That” blends James Brown with Black Sabbath, as Wayne proclaims himself “mashed potato smooth,” but it is the title track that really enlivens his imagination: “I put you niggas in the closet in the shirt space / You niggas yellow like Sesame Street Bert's face / Worst case scenario, burial / Two tone Carara like Mascara / The G4 take your boy wherever.”

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter II (Album) [iTunes Plus AAC M4A]

Genres: Hip-Hop/Rap, Music, Dirty South, Hardcore Rap
Released: Dec 06, 2005

Tha Carter II is to Lil Wayne what Supreme Clientele is to Ghostface. Wayne had always maintained a unique style, and had made memorable, even classic, recordings in years past but Tha Carter II broke the mold. Sudenly Wayne was taking risks in his rhymes, experimenting with his voice and his cadences, using stream-of-consciousness wordplay that was at times incisive, at times incomprehensible, but never less than stimulating. Without the futuristic stutter-stepping sounds of estranged Cash Money producer Mannie Fresh, Wayne became tuned into a more soulful sound that seemed to bring out the best in his personality. Songs like “Receipt” and “Hustler Musik” embrace the moans and sweet strings of classic Seventies R&B, while the sublime “Shooter,” which unfolds in layers and hushed climaxes, bears little resemblance to typical rap song structure. As Wayne explains, “Then they ask who when where how / And my reply was simply POW!” Tha Carter II was the beginning of a whole new chapter for this New Orleans youngster, and the first time we started believing him when he proclaimed himself “the best rapper alive.”

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter (Album) [iTunes Plus AAC M4A]

Genres: Hip-Hop/Rap, Music, Dirty South
Released: Jun 29, 2004

Lil Wayne had a lot to prove on Tha Carter. It was his first solo outing following the departure of his Hot Boy comrades from Cash Money, the record label empire that turned these New Orleans teenagers into millionaires. The only way to show the doubters that he could stand alone was to hit one out of the park, and with the opening lines of “Walk In,” Wayne debuted an ambitious new rhyme style: “This is the Carter, ya’ll welcome / Hard as Malcolm, dog is a Vulcan, lord help him / But ya’ll felt him / And that make you a part of me / And pardon me if a part of me is what you want to be / What you oughta be doing’s recording me / Or acting accordingly / I give orders to the commander in chief / Just the commander and me.” Wayne had merged Jay-Z’s wordplay with his own impish, unpredictable Southern flow, suddenly vaulting the 22-year-old former Hot Boy into the realm of the credible MC. Tha Carter was also notable as the last collaboration between Wayne and legendary Cash Money producer Mannie Fresh. With Wayne coming into his own as a rapper, Fresh provided some of the finest beats of his career: “Go DJ,” “On My Own,” “Snitch,” and “Ain’t It A Bitch.”
