Lil Wayne created one of the greatest rap albums of 2008 and is one of the biggest names in hip-hop and rap. Just two years later, he has left many thinking, “What happened?”
With his 7th album Rebirth he went for a new feel–which is horrible. The rap/rock songs of Rebirth leave me wondering what happened to him since 2008 when he released the amazing Tha Carter III.
His career is slowly spiraling down with the release of this album, and when he gets out of jail, many may choose not to remember him. A year is a long time to be away from the game, and this album may be his downfall.
Wayne’s voice is way wrong for the metal/rock beats he uses, and auto tune does not cover up what seems to be some sort of shrieking. Appearances by Eminem and Nicki Minaj, both sticking to their roots and rapping on the album, remain the best features.
Wayne, you need to either rap or hang up your dreads, because this album doesn’t even deserve 1 out of 5 stars.
