Lil Wayne - Dear Anne
 

KarenCivil.com

Just thought id post this, just dropped. Most of you guys say he only raps about money, bitches etc.
Just posting.

For some reason I decided to listen to this.

The beat wasn't as bad as expected
his voice wasn't as bad as expected
the lyrics weren't as bad as expected

but it's still not enough to make me a Lil Wayne fan, along with the facts:

the majority of his output is ****ing awful
the majority of his fanbase are stupid as ****

LimeLinx - Preview - Nightmares Of The Bottom.mp3

that is also just something off Tha Carter IV which defies what you guys usually say

Not everyone on this forum is a wayne hater. I like him, but I can see why other people wouldn't.

I'm a Lil' Wayne fan, but I was disappointed with "Dear Anne." I know it's meant to be a "Stan" knockoff, but that's all there is to it. Ok lyrics, ok beat. Sounded more like filler for his new album than a hit song.

I'm a lil Wayne fan myself and Swizz Beatz hooked him up this time.

That beat is awesome and I ended up with that song on replay about three times before I decided to focus on the lyrics/story.

There wasn't much to it actually. Even if it was a Stan Knockoff I didn't hear anything story-wise the way that it happened in Stan.

I just heard it to be a song dedicated to his number 1 fan and that's it

i liked it. especially the part "Do We Run? Should I Hide? For the rest of my life".
but personally i think it's a copy cat from a song that eminem had talking about a fan as well.

but this is just one song out of his, what hundreds of songs, that talks about money and bitches and etc.

^nah its not the only song dude... at all

But Lol, yh its a spinoff. Its not meant to be Stan pt 2 its just meant to be Wayne writing a letter to his fan.

And its a leftover from C4 @ oojay.....
Nightmares Of The Bottom >>>>>>>>>>>>> Dear Anne

^That is C4 material

is there any lil wayne song you dislike?

Well uh, I dont really dislike songs like that. If I dont feel the song I dont pay attention to it or hate on it or anything like that.
But I appreciate every song that drops tbh

so you choose to ignore him when he sucks?

I do the same with my favorite artists fersure
But dude,that prom queen song was bad, i don't know how lil wayne himself thought that was okay to release.

I love that song tbh... i was already a rock head kinda...
I can understand why you dont like it but I like when he does different types of ****.

trippin dude

Well it is called Dear Anne (Stan Pt 2) so I think it is absolutely meant to be Stan Pt 2.

I like Wayne sometimes, not a big fan of this one though. The beat didn't do too much for me.

no. its called "Dear Anne" ... that stan pt 2 **** was just added on there by the blogger because the song draws inspiration from Stan. Swizz Beatz has been talking about the song for months and it is not a sequel to Stan, Wayne would not do a sequel to somebody else's song.

Oh. Fair enough then. Still not a big fan of the song... But I am one of the minority on here that thinks Wayne's actually good, I will say he has ****ty songs (yeah, agree with Prom Queen) but he's made hundreds of them so there's plenty of good **** from him. And I'm excited for The Carter IV. I'm going to be ****ing pissed if it doesn't leak before I have to leave.

The beat wasn't bad, but it definitely didn't sound on par with other stuff made by Swizz Beatz.

^Yh swizz Basically just sampled the beat...

lol

leave?


but yh Its dropping June 21st and it probably wont leak till like a week before that when they ship it cos they arent even using email or anything, theyre just doing it old skool so hackers wont be able to get it.

but he's dropping a mixtape "Sorry 4 The Wait" soon so yh...

today is the 14th and that would make it one week until it's released

Lollipop" is the first single from Lil Wayne's sixth studio album, Tha Carter III.[1] The track features the late R&B artist Static Major and is produced by Deezle and Jim Jonsin.[1] The song was released digitally on March 13, 2008. The song is Lil Wayne's & Static Major's most successful to date, spending 5 non-consecutive weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Sorry... June 21st was the date but they pushed it back... Its August 29th

can you suggest of any other more inspirational songs from him?
i'm willing to listen like i did with this one.

Tie My Hands
No Quitter, Go Getter
DontGetIt
Shoot Me Down
Hustler Musik
That Aint Me
Dont Die
Steady Mobbin
Miss My Dawgs
Sky Is The Limit
Spit In Your Face
Tha Mobb
Comfortable
Runnin
Paradice
Pray To The Lord
La La La
Something You Forgot
Trouble
Dear Summer
I'm Me

Just a couple off the dome.
"Inspirational" May not ve the right word to describe all of them but they are great songs period.

And if you listen to them on youtube they will definitely be ****ty quality and the pitch will be changed and stuff.

How could you forget "I feel like dying"?

lol, yeah that too...

I could list so many

yeah it stands out to me and it's one of my faves so that's why I teased you about forgetting it.

yh I know lol :P

But how did I forget 'Dr. Carter' ? smh

you had a lot on the mind or something but you did list a pretty good size list of songs to begin with so it's understandable to miss a few.

OP seems pretty biased since his avatar is one of the ugliest men on earth, and his username contains Wayne's twitter name. His voice still irritates me, and I used to listen to a lot of Wayne 3 years ago. At least he's telling a story here though.. Best thing he's made in a while. Still don't think he's going to get back to his glory days

How is having my favorite artist's picture as my avatar on a music forum biased?
Please elaborate.
Dont understand why you said that tbh.

If you think he's that ugly then cool, im not into him because of his looks. And he looks iconic and swagged out, he aint tryna look like a model or anything. And all of that is still not relevant to his music.

And his twitter name is @liltunechi not TunechiBaby ... just saying


And this is not near the "best thing he's made in a while", the song is good but its just a throwaway from his album. And he didnt even record it for his album.

If you think his voice is annoying, whatever. People love his voice, its distinctive, its not that typical rappers voice.

if you don't think his look is relevant to his music and his overall success your ignorant (micheal jackson voice "thats ignorant)

I know for sure part of your appreciation for him is because he looks cool, you may not be aware of it but it's true. You don't get away with lyrics like "nigga im the **** get the **** up out my toilet" without appearing to be cool.

Obviously his image is important in his career.

But that random person thinking he is ugly has nothing to do with what was being said in this thread, which was about his music not his overall career and image. Just a pointless comment.

When discussing pop artists I'll argue that their image is just as important, if not more so, then their actual content.

Wiz Khalifa is obviously a terrible rapper, yet people still really like him because they idolize him and fantasize about being in his shoes.

I'm not going to say Lil Wayne's fans are that star struck, but i do think it's similar to an extent(albeit wayne sometimes is talented)

lol that's why you hate Wiz?

Most people like Wiz because his tracks are mad chill the whole stoner rap thing, you might not like that content but it's okay

Ok i'm not a big big Lil' Wayne fan so pardon me if I only listen to 2 of the choices given, I listened to Dr. Carter and Inspirational.

i personally prefer Inspirational, there's a specific beat that I can't put my finger to it. I swear I heard it somewhere.
Dr. Carter was pretty decent too but it sounds more of like a mixtape than from an album, or is it just from youtube.

"Inspirational" is not a song I named... I dont even know if that is a Lil Wayne song lol

And Dr. Carter is of Tha Carter III, album.

I would like to point out that I smoke weed every day, but I still realize that Wiz is a terrible rapper.

It's not the fact that he raps about weed, it's that he sucks at rapping...
