Given the herky-jerky release date announcement and pushbacks for C5, his commitment to putting out a proper album was at first met with anticipation and then, hard as that is to sustain, derision. Wayne has been uneven and prolific between albums, his stature allowing him to release whatever he wants or to broadcast his concerts whenever he wants via the internet. Releases came and went, some unremembered ( T-Wayne) and some criminally underrated (“D’Usse,” “Big Bad Wolf,” ColleGrove). It’s been six years since Lil Wayne announced Tha Carter V’s completion, and in that time audiences have been reminded of his propensity to come back hard from a layoff (à la the post-Rikers “6 Foot 7 Foot”) and for dropping lesser efforts in the downtime ( Sorry 4 the Wait and its sequel). ![]() What’s an album to a goblin, at this point? ![]()
