Album Description
Tha Carter III is the sixth studio album by rapper Lil Wayne and it is the final album in Tha Carter trilogy. Originally known as the youngest Hot Boy, Lil' Wayne has orchestrated a steady stream of hits. The New Orleans rapper began his long career with Cash Money as part of the Hot Boys, a popular late-'90s supergroup consisting of Juvenile, Turk, and B.G.

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

Customer Reviews

Must Have for all Lil Wayne Fans
Yeah, this is a good solid album and Lil Wayne on top of the game right now. All Wayne fans know that Mannie Fresh put Wayne on top and if u feel Wayne u have to also check out another Mannie Fresh artist he a young dude from N.O. called The Show and he on every Fresh beat jus like Wayne started. He supposed to have an album out called NO Business like Show Business - I'd insert the product link but it aint showing right now.

lil wayne- tha carter 3
i love this cd it has really good music on it and i would recommend anyone that likes rap to buy it

One of the Best Rap Albums in Years
Lil Wayne remains one of the most talented artists in hip-hop, developing and mastering a sound that is uniquely his own. One of the album's first tracks, "Mr. Carter," is a duet between two of the greatest in the business, with Jay-Z almost passing the torch to Weezy. While hit singles like "Lollipop," "A Milli," "Mrs. Officer," and "Got Money" (a standout among the many recent singles to include T-Pain) are all undeniable with their infectious hooks, many of the album tracks are even better. Robin Thicke guests on the surprisingly emotional "Tie My Hands," while Babyface smoothes over the mid-tempo "Comfortable." Wayne's originality and creativity are showcased particularly well in the sci-fi "Phone Home" and the appropriately boastful "Dr. Carter." While much of today's hip-hop has digressed into bland pop, Lil Wayne is a refreshing exception, and Tha Carter III exhibits this perfectly. 5 Stars.
