... Wayne fans rejoice… 2 NEW trax from the superstar MC, including the 1st single off his upcoming rock album, Rebirth, tentatively scheduled for an April 7th release. As for the track itself, well, I’m not feelin’ it. I could easily see and respect its mainstream appeal and Wayne’s attempt to crossover and push himself as an artist, but I’m just not a huge fan of the song, outside of a few clever lines. I feel I can relate 2 some of those and it probably has a greater appeal to others. Either way, it’s worth a listen 2 ...

... Oh goodness… [image] Apparently Lil Wayne is going the rock route . He’s releasing a brand new album on April 7th called Rebirth , but he insists it will have nothing to do with another Tha Carter III release as originally planned. He also doesn’t want to call it Tha Carter IV . So he’s naming it Rebirth . This new album will be rock and roll in nature–sounding very much like Kanye’s 808s and Heartbreak I hear. And the first single is called “Prom Queen”. Check it out ...
Lil Wayne's Rock Album Is Actually Happening
Pitchfork Media - Today —
... supposed rock-star moves for a minute now: playing guitar (horribly) at his shows, jumping onstage with Kid Rock at a couple of awards shows, ingesting vast quantities of drugs. And earlier in the month, Wayne protegee Drake reported that Wayne's next album would be a full-on rock record. I'd hoped that this was another one of the bajillions of unfounded Wayne reports flying around the internet-verse. But no. This is really happening. According to MTV, Rebirth, Wayne's rock album, is due April 7, and ...

... , so kudos to Weezy for getting wise and ditching this rap thing for his next release. Huh? Well it's all true: Lil Wayne is making a "rock record" instead of a rap record, and it's out this April. Despite earlier statements suggesting this would be titled Tha Carter III: Rebirth while featuring none of the songs from the original Tha Carter III (obvs) (ugh), this won't have anything to do with Tha Carter III . It'll just be a rock record called Rebirth . With audible autotune! All the rock records have audible autotune. A taste: If that gets pulled, you can hear it ...

Lil Wayne's 'Prom Queen': Make it go away!
PopWatch —
... of bargain-basement mall-metal riffage and semi-conscious Auto-Tuned moaning sounded bad enough in the studio, but seeing Wayne attempt to perform this song live is just painful. You may notice that virtually no sound comes out when Weezy starts maniacally tapping his frets around the 1:50 mark. This is because Lil Wayne cannot play guitar (even after months of "practice"!), so he's mixed waaaay down, if he's even plugged in to an amp at all. And he wants us to listen to an entire album of this nonsense ? I've said it before, but once more for the road, Lil Wayne is a ...
