Tha Carter V

On September 26 Lil’ Wayne finally dropped the long-awaited album “Tha Carter V.”

Lately, it’s been hard to find rap music with both good lyrics and beats, but with C5 it has both.

This album is easily one of the best of 2018. It blew albums like Travis Scott’s “Astroworld” out of the water. When “Astroworld” dropped in early August I was disappointed in how terrible it was. With all the hype that was put into the album’s release, all it had to show for it was “Sicko Mode” which was mediocre at best.

“Tha Carter 5” was less hyped up and exponentially better. There were only two or three songs that I don’t like out of 23 songs.

That brings me now to my top 5 songs of the album in order.

“Uproar”

“Mona Lisa” (feat. Kendrick Lamar)

“Open Safe”

“Can’t Be Broken”

“Famous” (feat. Reginae Carter)

The album also has nine songs with features including the late XXXTENTACION, Kendrick Lamar, his daughter Reginae Carter, Snoop Dogg and more.

All in all this album is great. From lyrics to beats to features, “Tha Carter V” has it all. If you haven’t already go give it a listen on Apple Music, Spotify and pretty much any other music streaming service. You won’t be disappointed.
