Lil Wayne made fans wait 10 months after his release from prison for Tha Carter IV (* * * ½out of four), his much anticipated follow-up to 2008's triple-platinum Tha CarterIII.
But now that it's finally here, Weezy has packed the lineup with more than enough repeat-worthy tunes to make it worth the delays. All year, he has been offering little tastes leading up to the big day with his current single, the Drake-assisted She Will, following hits 6 Foot 7 Foot, John and How to Love.
He comes armed with a steady stream of punch lines ("When it Waynes, it pours") over banging beats. And though he shares the mike with a roster of guests that include Rick Ross, Cory Gunz, Jadakiss, T-Pain and Tech N9ne, they're just icing on the cake.
Wayne even spares a moment to throw a shot at Watch the Throne (Jay-Z dropped a subliminal diss at him onH.A.M.), responding with an equally sly verse on It's Good. As a whole, Tha Carter IV is even better than that.
