Lil Wayne - Tha Carter VI | FIRST REACTION

I think Nicki and Drake asked to be take off the album when they heard the full album :D

Jan Majnik

The islands song is a a heavy sample of islands in the sun by weezer. He fent leans on the source material so hard it.

Borrego

I think the Maria was the reference to Maria Maria which wyclef did with Santana way back. It’s still not well produced but I think that is the connect. Edit: bochelli does sing ave Maria. It’s a big track for him when he blew up.

Borrego

Wayne is gone. The lean and pharmaceuticals took him. It’s over.

Juju_804

I think the problem with this album is two fold. 1. The structure is all off, there is no journey, its all very flat. These all feel like mixtape verses which could have been fine if not for point two 2. Waynes vocal performance is really weak on this album, hes damn near monotone through most of it and slurring his words half the time. He doesnt have the presence he usually has. That to me is the biggest blunder and is extremely fixable if he sees it as a problem too. I dont think its lyrically super weak but its not really justifying itself ether. The production is weak in places but I think even that would have been ok if not for points 1 and 2.

Alon

They said 4 and 5 are good just not as good as the first 3. I dont see the issue with that

Alon

carter should’ve ended after 4 y’all trippin. please do a video on carter 4

darius

Bruh the reaction to when the metal part of Loki’s theme came in. So fucking funny

eoin

49:07 got me dyinggg with the Melo pump fake 😂😂😂

Christian Waugh-Sunico

Have yall heard untiljapan before? He just dropped an album

AstralTortoise

I get what yall are doing with the zooms when someone has a thought they are sharing - but maybe it’s time to think about switching the camera angles. Like if yall had three cameras with one on derae, one on prince, and one wide angle with you both. You could do the wide angle for the listening and duo moments, and the solo shots for individual takes. Almost like a podcasting setup. Just a thought. Regardless, love the reactions and have been following you two since the days where you did these in the car 🙌

Spencer

songs be sounding like a micheal bay movie outro

Flako

Nigga was gaslighting himself

Dub

1:04:02 "Most times, music is like (sic) intentional" Prince on top of it today

CanisRetro

This album blowed my guys. I love Prince trying to stay stoic and head nodding along, but god damn.

Xenolithic

Im just disappointed

Leo ——— yo-yo

Island Holiday, and the couple songs after sounded like it should've been Lil Uzi instead of Lil Wayne

Swock

You can say it’s trash Darae, it’s okay you can admit it bro 😭😂

Fooly

Your mics are very low or Wayne is way too loud. And it's extra offensive on an album like this

enzo

Definitely think it's the production, Wayne's silly consciousness on the album and exhaustive flow. Like you mentioned wayne bars are always easy to understand but always hit because it fit so well. When we remove the music aspect and just think about it, I do question his lyricality especially when he's in the talks with someone like method man or other MCs of that calibre. These are lyrics to forget rightfully so. Wonder if he pressured to put something out and if there's something more to that, but as of now this is just dissapointing.

Chill vayx

Prince has more patience than I do, because I gave up hope about six tracks before he did.

Ryan Rockwell

legendary song, and I need them to react to 50 and banks on that beat too, legendary freestyle from banks

Rudra

Man. I saw the light leave both of your eyes as Island Holiday starts to play. smh

Jayvo

Yeah. Intro was regal af. Made you feel like you were about to get an epic production...

Jayvo

Why didn't his friends stop him

Kenneth Sundby

🥲

Kenneth Sundby

Hold on HOLD ON 😂 love from Belgium!

meriem moussaoui

This album is a two pack of ass. Sad to see this man working in a laundromat.

Ryan Hearton

It's so disappointing.

WilliamT

Feel like this is the first ever hip hop album where every feature washes the Primary artist

Cardenasada Taco

"I turn gumbo to sushi" is a crazy bar. This might be a huge reach lol but its a double -- gumbo and sushi are two completely different foods, basically saying he's so good he has the power to change one thing into something completely different, the other bar being how he's going to take gumbo, something that is famously known from Lousiana, and change it to sushi, which is something that is, again, completely different. Edit: Im listening to these tracks for the first time, and I wrote this before I heard Prince break it down lmao

James B

Thanks for getting through it… It was a hard listen for me too

Ghas

i know just the thing that will left you back up ( to pimp a butterfly) AOTM please pleeeeeease

waleed alsahabi

15:00 - the song Bells is interpolating LL Cool J - Rock the Bells

PA

Came here to say this.

Ryan Higgins

Diddy was the shine forever bar

Darryl Long

This album was tough to get through sad to see legends go out like this

Eli

Bro! Was so sure

VibeVilla

Swear!

VibeVilla

Cry about it you can’t even form a cohesive sentence lmfao

roxx

I really have high hopes for the deluxe but who knows when it will come out maybe 1 year from now like the funeral album.. Deluxe should have all the collaborations missing here and other 2-3 songs where he is serios...

Ioan Herea

More like 10 tracks of peak bad but I get you're point should have been in the first 5 tracks for credibility reasons at least..

Ioan Herea

You're living in the past .C4 was amazing only hits on that album from start to finish there is no skip, C5 had very good songs too more then half of the album was very good, even IMNAHB 2 has memorable songs ,funeral has aged pretty good too honestly and in my opinion coligrove 2 had a lot of fire songs too....I'm curious how old are you at this point

Ioan Herea

I'm 34 and for me the best of Wayne I heard was Carter 3 and 4 ,Theresa reason C4 sold nearly a mill first week and omg looking at the features it had the best of the best contemporary and old-school,C5 was amazing too just felt a bit old because of all the legal issues with the label, C6 tried to replicate the recipe of C3 mixed with C4 mixing rapp hip hop some pop some introspective songs and some funny trolling stuff with absurd collaborations but did not work at all sadly...I'm happy we God a Wayne project and I like at least 4 songs a lot 1.if a played a guitar 2. Flex one 3 . Sharks 4. Witten history Honestly even alone in the studio has some kind of vibe that I like we will see if it lasts.. anyway definitely half of the album should have been cut and put on sorry for the wait or mix before the six mixtape..I mean if you take 5 horrible songs from this and replace them with original singles of the album and add other 3-4 from the mixtape we got you may have a more then decent project that deserves the Carter legacy..

Ioan Herea

When Prince said “Yeah this is trash” I was like 📠…..😂😂🎯🎯💯💯

TJ

Ioan Herea

" + Prince gives up hope" has me crying

Dvd

Props to Wayne for an astronomical falloff. Ending the project by collaborating w/ two sex weirdos, truly one of the albums of all time 🔥

Clara

redveil - Learn 2 Swim

NeillBS

37:34 Yeah I’m good on hearing 2 chains tell me he’s “leaking”

Clara

Speaking of album covers, what’s the purple album on your wall? At this point, it’s just driving me crazy…

Z

The old-school flow on Bells is an homage to LL Cool J's classic "Rock The Bells".

Dustin

I hope they upload the reaction to that song to Youtube. Just that snippet and nothing else lol

Ryan

Honestly his beat selection is terrible, he still kills features but as far as making projects it might be over

Mack Nichols

Wayne ruined his career

Official Joe7

Yo if you take 5 songs off here it’s a good album. This is far from trash but definitely more like a mix tape. I got Carter 4 over 1 but I’m 26 so that’s my era

Cameron Bergan

First and last song are the only keeps.

Kostia

Went straight to 3 after hearing 6 and it put the biggest smile on my face but also made me feel even worse about 6. Either way, that's the Wayne I'll chose to remember and I'll just block this one from my memory.

Stefan

You guys were nice because it’s Wayne and I get it. It’s Wayne. This is a horrible horrible horrible album in any standard

Danielle karassik

I’m so pissed bruh

suarez16

The mood got lower and lower throughout the listen… 😂

Kostia

excited to see y’all reacting to Lotus next, might restore some faith in the game after this one 😭

Cade Parkin

John

"Prince gives up hope" in the timestamps 😂😭 And yes the album is fucking ASS

FigLeaf Bicarbonate

My reaction to that track for the first time was identical tbh

martin overengen

"I was excited, and then I went online" is the perfect encapsulation of this album.

David

True, I'm convincing myself that was the only single that dropped

martin overengen

I already know before watching this that the commentary will be hilarious

martin overengen

Im just here for y’all commentary not even the music 😂😂😂

Nico

Lmao skipping the Elephant song made me cryyyy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

SamBeLit

Like Shaq, Scru and a few other reactors...y'all might want to hit Carter 2 or 3 to clean ya palate after this 🤣🤣

Caleb Washington

I came and skipped straight to watch the Peanuts reaction and bro hit skip mid first verse 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Caleb Washington

This the same Wayne that wanted a Super Bowl show? Yikes.

Jason Norwood

Written History isn't a bad song but I'm not letting you get away with all that "I'm the greatest talk" after 18 tracks of "peak bad." Nah you can't let him have that.

Ryan

These are the days sounds like a rebuttal to KDot Superbowl performance that was presenting America from the view of the black people and in this song Lol Wayne is presenting America in the way he sees it, no racism, Republican view. I say that because in peanut to elephant he mentions the Republican party

Brenda GarzaWilliams

I genuinely felt bad for you guys when the beat dropped during Loki's Theme. Yall really though you had one then got rug pulled.

Ryan

some of these tracks sound like they were made for poeple who make call of duty montages lmaoooooo

Marquis

The reactions to the start of Cotton Candy and to the hard rock section in Loki's Theme were priceless.

Mackenzie Kraemer

seeing you guys face on island holidays is frying me lmaooooo

Marquis

The reference is victory- biggie, puff, and busta rhymes. It was on 2k13

Nez

Lets go lol

Dvd

1:10:50 im actually crying

Slasherohh H

oh no, i thought the hate was just the internet being the internet, ts is really like bro.... what... at one point i skipped ahead to mula komin. holy shit

Slasherohh H

He coulda called this album anything else and we would’ve been disappointed but “at least we have tha carter 6 to look forward to” 😩. I gotta fire up tha carter 2 to cleanse my palate lol

Popularunknown

Lmaoo the commentary before Island Holiday...I felt bad knowing what was coming.

Derek Addison

😂

Jo Bros

It also says that “Wyclef and Wayne recorded around 30 tracks for Carter VI”, which… why

ADI1992

In the Wayne cover story in Rolling Stone it says this: “Italian opera star Andrea Bocelli sings “Ave Maria” on another track. Wyclef flew to Italy to ask Bocelli’s permission to sample the song, and ended up telling Bocelli the story of Wayne surviving a self-inflicted gunshot at 12. The tenor was so moved that he decided to sing the opera standard himself. “It’s one of them records that I feel is going to stop time,” Wyclef says.”

ADI1992

That Elephant track is a crime in itself

Darnelle

The first 2 tracks had me fooled too lol

Joey

Welcome to tha Carter was fire though. I’m leaving here with something

Ryan

I thought yall wasn’t gon post since it’s trash lol

Shyjuan Ward
