If you want to equate it with Dane Cook's talent for presentation over substance, I'll grant that willingly, but it is a talent, A talent, not the final word on rap talent, A talent.

The reviews sure are. Not to the degree of, say, Spin, but they love the same shitty bands that Pitchfork and Spin do.

I get my reviews almost exclusively from A.V. Club. Pitchfork is too snobby and Rolling Stone is too mainstream. A.V. Club tends to take into account what an artist is trying to accomplish as well as an album or movie's wider context (such as genre and target audience) but is still far more likely to approve of a TV On The Radio album or David Wain movie than a Katy Perry album or Michael Bay movie.

Lil Wayne is awful. He sounds like a dying cat. I hate him.
I still dont understand why all these young folks love him so much, they think he's cool, when I think he's just plain weird. He sucks, one of the most overrated rappers ever.

I can't stand lil wayne. That being said, he has a million dollar delivery. His mic presence is hard to deny. I've said it before (not on here) that if he ever got a shred of lyrical content he would be amazing but until then he's a novelty act sold to suburban kids.

Sure Em fell back into some of his old ways, but that was his point. He has come through his recovery and, in some ways, brought his music full circle to the days of Slim Shady LP. He hasn't gone the route of most rap superstars where all he raps about is the old days and how none of the new rappers respect him. Thank God. I do, however, hope he takes a step in a new direction with relapse 2 or these same critics will begin to be validated. |
