    If C5 was cut down, then it could have been really good. Too many years of tracks backlogged and Cortez let ‘em all fly.

    Been quiet, but have given it enough spins now as to where I can weigh-in:

    Track-by-Track:
    1. King Carter - :emoji_thumbsup:
    2. Welcome to Tha Carter - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    3. Bells - :emoji_thumbsup:
    4. Hip-Hop - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    5. Sharks - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    6. Banned From NO - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    7. The Days - :emoji_thumbsup:
    8. Cotton Candy - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    9. Flex Up - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    10. Island Holiday - :emoji_thumbsdown:
    11. Loki's Theme - :emoji_thumbsdown:
    12. If I Played Guitar - :emoji_thumbsup: (I can't explain why)
    13. Peanuts 2 N Elephant - :emoji_thumbsdown::emoji_thumbsdown:
    14. Rari - :emoji_thumbsdown:
    15. Maria - :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:
    16. Bein Myself - :emoji_thumbsup:
    17. Mula Komin In - :emoji_thumbsdown::emoji_thumbsdown:
    18. Alone In The Studio With My Gun - :emoji_thumbsdown::emoji_thumbsdown:
    19. Written History - :emoji_thumbsup:

    Rating:
    My rating scale isn't very formulaic, but assuming a :emoji_thumbsdown::emoji_thumbsdown: = 1, :emoji_thumbsdown: = 2, :emoji_thumbsup:=3, and :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup:=4:
    • total count = 55
    • total possible = 76
    • Avg = 72% (i.e., 7.2/10)
    • Minus 1 for length = 6.2/10 = 6/10 :emoji_shrug: seems about right

    Expanded thoughts:
    1. A 6/10 is not good, especially for a flagship album in the series; my general bar is that a 5/10 is deemed barely listenable
    2. 'King Carter' should have been the outro, 'Welcome to Tha Carter' the intro
    3. 'The Days' = 'Revival'
    4. Is 'Island Holiday' a Rebirth leftover from 2009? What's going on here?
    5. s--- really started to go downhill started at 'Island Holiday'
    6. C5 suffered from being too long. C6 is no different. Cut 1/3 of the tracks and the album would have replayability. The shorter the album, the longer it's played tbh
    7. Wayne should have stopped the Carter series at 5, like initially planned. There's no better track than 'Let It All Work Out' to close out the series. d---.

    @WeezySXN tell me I'm wrong w/ my track ratings

    okk. But pls don't fill it with 30 tracks. Cut the fillers that almost sound the same and give us a proper album...

    Lil Wayne and Eminem need to make a collab album.

    We will then see the two of the highest skilled in hip hop, rap over some of the worst instrumentals of all time.

    The bass in ''Bells'' hits like A Millie. Back when I had 12'' subwoofers, this track would rattle the bolts loose on my car

    I always thought Wayne said he was stopping tha carter series at 5. Will need to find that source again, but I’m pretty f---ing hype for this tho.

    I remember going to sleep a few minutes after the record dropped, so people were hyped and I went to sleep thinking that Wayne dropped another classic that I would check out ASAP when I woke up

    Then I woke up, and I experienced the craziest musical whiplash ever, like d---
