Juelz Santana & Lil' Wayne - By Myself
Artist: Juelz Santana & Lil' Wayne
Producer: Unknown
Album: Unreleased
Label: Skull Gang/Young Money
Juelz Santana & Lil Wayne‘s long, long awaited collaborative album, I Can’t Feel My Face, has been a topic of conversation since the project was first proposed way back in ‘06. Though the LP remains in limbo, fans’ main concern is simply hearing the music. In response to Internet leaks, Santana recently offered up the finished versions of several tracks, including the newly-released By Myself. A hook sampled from Stevie Wonder’s mournful They Won’t Go When I Go and a string-driven instrumental by an unknown producer set the stage for a downbeat cut driven by darkly reflective rhymes. While Santana’s verses smolder with braggadocio (and feature a few implied jabs at unfaithful colleagues), Weezy comes off as both whimsical and unsettlingly tired as he meditates on his own death. The combined effect is oddly compelling, and should get listeners even more curious about what other surprises ICFMF holds. The LP, of course, has no release date, but stay tuned to the Booth for more details if and when they surface.

Whoever did this production, Did it greatly, letting the beat just seem to carry Weezy and Santana's flow, Although it COULD use a little bit more "Uumph", It doesnt need it to be a good production.. Im likin the way Weezy and Juelz go in and out, Makes the track less boring to me and easier to listen too, Im MY opinion, I dont think there really is a LP.. BUT there could be one in time..

Man, I don't know. These collaborative albums usually never end up getting released it seems like. This wasn't bad. The production was decent and I liked the sample. Both artists were pretty good. 3.5, but I hope that more comes from these two because it could be a great collabo project.

Damn you cant say anything bad about this one. The production is pretty good as its not overpowering and you can hear Weezy and Santana's flow. Weezy brings some of the hottest rhymes I've heard from him in a while he sound like he back on his Carter 2 flow. This is banging!

I didnt mind Juelz on this, though I thought Weezy was dreadful, he seemed to mumble a bit & i just couldnt stand listening to his verses. The production was decent, though nothing special.
2.5 (ill round up since JoshL rounded down) I thought 'Her, Him & Me' was the better of the two songs that got leaked by Juelz & Weezy today. |

the production (good as it is) begins to bore you halfway through.... Wayne is crazy when he flows in that chilled out style ... & Juelz is tigght on dis too ... & sample only adds quality ...

This lacks togetherness, unity, and energy. There are many reasons this project hasn't seen the light of day... just saying.
PS. To the member who e-mailed me saying that DJBooth is "on Wayne's d**k" - what now? [smiles]. |

Wayne kills everything he's on, not anticipating collabo album(over-rated i think). We'll see tho

@joshL - I wouldnt say its just DJBooth viewers, but its Hip Hop fans in general. I would put him in the top 10 rappers alive, but there is no way he is number 1 like some people reckon.

I'm sure as hell not on Lil' Wayne's D**k . I always thought he was overrated. Yeah he can write some sick rhymes and metaphors but he is so inconsistent with his flow that I find myself not enjoying many of his songs. He needs to go back to rapping, like he was on Tha Carter II.

I dig the production, the hook is particularly good as the background sample is lovely, but I'm not really into their flows...verses get annoying quickly to my ears. Good but not the best

Im glad Wayne sounded like old Wayne on this cuz I havent been feelin him at all. So good looks on that. And I have a question, maybe someone can answer this - Why does Juelz always sound like hes recording on a 99 cent computer mic? Who mixes his vocals? From someone who mixes and masters this is so annoying to listen to. Not hating on his verses, but the quality of his voice on his songs always bugs me! grr

Nice to hear Wayne without the autotune. That bein said, he can do a lot better than he did on this track. Beat is OK. Neither one really can as hard as they should. Not really feelin Juelz

I have heard at least 30 tracks from the both of them, so they have a lot to choose from for the album. This is one of their way different sounding tracks, and I have actually never heard this one before. I think this sounds like more of an experimentation than a release track. The beat is pretty cool. Lil Wayne sounds good on here and so does Juelz! I think the beat is throwing most of you guys off, but both of them do their thing on here! Chorus is decent too! BANGER!

This track is cool, but not worthy of rotation. It is worthy of a couple listens tho, and I enjoy hearin these two together, I just hope they step it up and put out some bangers and drop the album.

Been getting a lil sick of wayne since hes been on everything. This is something that would have been like "ohhh sick song" a while ago but at this point its like "i've heard 5 other lil wayne songs like this". Hes just putting out too much material in my opinion. Its gonna sound repetitive soon. Juelz isn't my favorite but hes decent on this. Would have enjoyed more "Uumph" as well.

He had me at first listen. I'm lovin the beat Lil' Wayne is always showin off his skills. Juelz is a great artist and continues to be one. Them together might be the ultimate duo.

The production is awesome and Wayne delivers nicely over this beat as does Juelz. Although the only downfall is as a collabo, they dont collab much with each other, just spit different verses.

omq . this sonq . yo wayne and juelz did they thinq . but i G0T to qive uptmost RESPECT to the producer. the track is on point; and i aqree with vanrie about the actuall collab it does flow into eachother as much as it seems as they went into the studio at different times and layd a verse
