Drake (feat. Lil Wayne & Tyga) - The Motto (Young Money, 2011)

How Wayne manages to look the most suspect in a video with Drake and Tyga, I’ll never know, but the video itself succeeds thanks to some finely timed cameos and Tyga’s weird methods of space travel. 

Also, Chase N. Cashe. Seriously, this dude’s work as of late has been excellent, and I can’t wait for 2012, which will undoubtedly be an even bigger year for his production.

Lil Wayne - Sorry 4 The Wait (YMCMB, 2011)
Noz pretty much covered the general ideas and problems with this mixtape by listening to one song. Like No Ceilings was, this is cookie-cutter Wayne; Wayne doing his best impression of himself, or at least what he once was. I wish I could say this release is depressing, but I think the majority of us gave up on the young Carter (the old one too) sometime in 2008. Wayne sounds about as bored rapping as I do listening to him, but the Young Money fanbase’ll eat this shit up with no complaints. And that’s who this mixtape is made for; those naive, overly loyal kids who still think Wayne is the shit just because defecation is his favorite subject.
As I keep telling people who ask me when the Carter IV is dropping, or what I think about Wayne - I don’t really care anymore. We don’t really need Wayne anymore. His influence lives on in every active rapper but himself.
