Lil Wayne put out enough material in 2007 to inspire a Vibe magazine list of the 77 best Lil Wayne songs of that year alone. That level of output is the primary reason behind Tha Carter III's bumpy ride. The albums opens well with the appropriately boastful "3 Peat," followed by the symbolic torch-passing of "Mr. Carter," featuring Jay-Z. But nothing matches or exceeds that until the Swizz Beatz-produced lark "Dr. Carter" and the album's arguable high point "Phone Home." Framed by simple, bombastic beats from Cool & Dre, Lil Wayne argues in "Phone Home" that he's so far beyond the competition he's extra-terrestrial. Within that track comes a stellar example of how Weezy's reptilian flow can let an inspired aside such as "I'm rare, like Mr. Clean with hair" slip by almost unnoticed. But no artist this prolific can avoid dropping some duds amongst the winners. The disc's three monster hits sound silly ("Lollipop"), annoying ("A Milli"), and generally uninspired ("Got Money") when stacked up against the non-hits. David Banner's musical backing for "La La" provides the kind of brain-tickling inventiveness that Lil Wayne should always have in order to push his gift for verbal absurdity to greater heights. --Kris Kendall

Lil wayne did a great job on this. Imagination, Hard work, Dedication all rolled out in this. To the hip hop world his names been around for awhile...he's going mainstream in a hardcore way. Forget what ya heard and listen to the track Mrs. Officer...I love it and can't stop humming it!

When will we wake up from the 2000s and realize that the entire decade was made up of albums that sucked like Lil Wayne's Carter III? How can this be number 3 in sales rank? Because people with no true musical taste bought this MP3 album for $5 so they can be "hardcore" while driving in front of their high school in the morning and afternoons. This is one of the worst albums I have heard in a long time. It degrades women, glorifies the idiotic 'thug' life, and is more explicit than artful. Whoever labeled this as music was mistaken...it is pure cRap...it isn't even Rap music...there are a lot of kids out there who have been rapping or making music since they were 12 and they are much better than this 'thug' wannabe.

I understand everyone has their own opinions, but what I don't understand is why people love this so much. People brag how he's been rapping since he was 12, if someone's been rapping that long (for him over half his life) I'd expect them to be way better.
This album consists of him throwing out the most random words and phrases. He has absolutely no flow, he sounds bored, and he sounds like he's half asleep. Everything about this album is wack. Even the cover, which he blatantly ripped off from Nas's "Illmatic" / Biggie's "Ready To Die" / and Method Man's "The Prequal" ... Sorry weezy, but you're not quite on that level.
