    C3 > C4

  9. Donn says:

    Haters click on every post just to repeat what they said the last Wayne post. We get it. U dnt like Wayne. Now go bump ur underground sensations

  10. Anon DCPL says:

    I haven’t heard shit from this album, nor people talking about it besides these websites .

    Carter 4 sales were manufactured.

    The record industry, RIAA, SoundScan, Clear Channel are the music version of the Securities Exchange Committee.

  11. Chan says:

    I like this. I wish there would be more album discussion for intelligent critics who actually have valid points. I dig this.

  12. Chan says:

    Wayne is for the average person. Jay-z is for the intelligent person.

    JAY-Z = BEST RAPPER ALIVE

  13. NuJew says:

    All they do in the hood is play Lil Wayne. Thank the skies above me I live in the suburbs lol

    P.S. Fuck that wannabe Mexican/Nigga Amaya

  14. Black Shady says:

    Section 80 > C4 just saying…

    and did that nigga in the middle really say Wayne is the rap version of MJ? Why nobody reacted to this at the table? SMH

    shout out to B.Dot rocking that durag like it aint nothinnnnnnn lolol

    and last thing ; some1 hook me up with ANGELA…I swear i’ll treat u like a queen shorty. shes on my list no doubt!

  15. Chan says:

    But if you shoot me, then you’re famous — what’s a nigga to do?”

  16. m1 says:

    weak ass round table talking about nothing.1 dude lied about waynes numbers.but yeah that is true he only sold 44,000 copies in the north east.cause we dont fuck with jeggings

  17. Kill says:

    @Black Shady

    Nobody overreacted to it because he made a good point with the MJ thing. Watch it again and take off the hater glasses.

  18. Niyemortal says:

    Wow, that was somewhat of a dope discussion. B.Dot had some valid points (everybody did, except for dude saying Wayne was the rap MJ. NO!) Put it like this: McDonald’s will be put in your face all the time, but only the smart people know not to eat that shit all the time.
    Filet Mignon > McDonald’s

  19. choyce says:

    realest shit said is that Lil Wayne is “Mcdonalds” its not real, he lacks substance

  20. tommy says:

    really? no comments on a man exiting his home with a durag strapped on his head in 2011?

  21. choyce says:

    Wayne was the best rapper when he wasnt selling records. the people buying his album are just late comers, loyalist ,and fucking bandwagon ass americans

  22. Phat Ass Pam says:

    Du rag’d B.Dot is a cutie. So is Angela. I’d do ‘em both!

  23. Word says:

    I dunno about yall, but #Section80 was the best LP of the year that I heard. C4 is cool I guess. I like how nobody ever talks about his lyric content though…just his sales. What do you get out of his good sales? Nothing. What do you get out of good lyrics? Knowledge, Entertainment, etc etc etc. Lets talk more about his lyrics then his sales. Sales matter, but they dominate the discussion too frequently.

    In related news, theres a Top60 Worst Wayne punchlines that you can Google. Dont agree with some, but the other 50 were garbage.

    Worst line off the album? “You dont wanna mess with Wayne, cuz when it Waynes it pours” Sooooooo corny. None of you Wayne stans can tell me that shit wasnt corny? Come on. I did like that “We jack son then light up the L, Samuel” line though.

  24. breWtangclan says:

    wayne is terrible, anyone that likes him doesnt know shit about music. every one in ymcmb sucks and needs to quit

  25. ridalen says:

    @word

    did u even listen to the video? they were talking about his lyrics. you just saw the title and made a big ass assumption.

  26. Word says:

    And about his sales drop, doesnt really matter.

    See, we put so much empahasis on the first week sales because most of you niggas lack the attention span to keep up with the following sales. Either way, we just wanna hear about the milestones. Was it #1, First week sales, Did it go Gold, Did it go Plat., How many times Plat., etc etc etc. That being said, Eminem is sitting on like what? 5 Million Domestically? Wayne has a good start but he doesnt really finish well in terms of overall sales. I think Recovery even has more records sold than C3 and that came out like 3 years ago!

    This nigga Em sustained sales from MMLP and TES and made them bitches go Diamond. No other rapper is going Diamond anymore. Fact. Wayne can have the first week sales and platinum plaques, this nigga Em got Diamond ones. But hey, aint Waynes teeth made out of Diamonds? *shrugs*

  27. Word says:

    @ridalen

    I was referring to the ppl in the comments section, not the ppl in the video. You just made a big assumption that I made a big assumption. Good one

  28. Kali_MH says:

    Lots of good points. There should be more discussions around albums like this. One thing that didn’t add up is when they said “it’s so easy for kids to get Wayne’s album…one push of a button and they have it”. Yah that’s true, but then how do you explain the 600,000+ physical records that were purchased in the first week? That’s almost twice the digital sales and involves a kid actually going to a Best Buy to stand in line behind a guy buying a fridge to buy a $15 disc that is 5 bucks cheaper online…

  29. choyce says:

    he’s the greatest punchline rapper in my generation. but thats it. people can relate to his cheap suburban white boy swag.

  30. Word says:

    @Kali_MH

    Cosign. It was real surprising that Wayne sold double his digital sales. His physical copies alone were more than WTTs overall sales I think, or at least equal to it. Congrats to that man, but his lyric content will forever be weak to me.

  31. choyce says:

    Wayne has a lot of new fans. he had the opportunity to open up about a lot of different subjects. every album is different and hopefully he’ll learn to share his experiences and emotions on his next lp.

  32. Slim says:

    Bdot you rich, take that durag off! LOFL.

  33. Tribble says:

    wayne made this album…for young white kids…

    Walmart giving out $1,000 giftcards, becuz of a defect on 10,000 computers .. http://goo.gl/wupAx next 24 hours only..shit i got 2..lol

  34. TheUnbias lol says:

    As a lil wayne fan i agree to alot of the comments made in this video such as the all over the place style used however i do feel that there are more structured tracks than just how to love for example mirrors, night mares of the bottom and president carter. However what was not mentioned is how all over the place watch the throne was aswell. i mean i bought WTT and there was a lot of all over the place off topic tracks. These days rappers r lookin for punchlines and metaphores a perfect comparison from tha carter 4 and watch the throne is Blunt bowin and N*****s in Paris both completely off topic but a good sound a hooks.

  36. wickwickwack says:

    and this website is filled wiht guys who dont understand that the general public isn’t hiphop heads and doesnt try to understand shit. thats why hiphoppers make albums for hiphoppers.

  42. uh says:

    Uh Wayne is 29 not 27

  43. SmokeYou says:

    Quality > Quantity. I’m sure Wayne is a cool person but his music is not for me.

  45. Sam I Am says:

    Damn, this is pretty nice.

    If McDonald’s is all I can afford, that doesn’t mean I’m going to stick with that shit. I’m gonna save up so I can at least eat at Burger King or Wendy’s. When the real money comes, I’ll get into stuff like Whole Foods or even cook the meals at home myself. See the analogy?

  46. Mike says:

    Eminem has been “McDonalds” for the past 7-10 Years…..
    Wayne = pizza hut…

    They`re talking about everybody accept Eminem, why is that ? Becouse he`s white?
    Fuck that.

    Em IS the NO.1 Rapper of all time. No talk.

  47. wow says:

    waynes album is better then watch the throne. FACT!
