Lil Wayne - Yes ft. Pharrell
Artist: Lil Wayne
Featuring: Pharrell Williams
Producer: Pharrell WIlliams
Album: TBD
Label: Cash Money/Universal Motown
As I pointed out in the blurb for Red Rum, Lil Wayne is set to be an even busier man in ‘09 than he was in ‘08, possibly releasing four albums before the year’s end: one re-release (Carter III: Tha Rebirth), the final two albums in the Tha Carter series, and a rock side project (comparable to Kanye West’s 808s & Heartbreak). On Yes Weezy indulges his penchant for bizarre, free-association metaphors, indulging a lyrical persona that our own Nathan S. refers to as Mr. Out-Of-His-Mind. Meanwhile, Pharrell is grimier than we’ve ever heard before, delivering a sharp imitation on the hook and going completely chaotic on the beat. But one question remains: will it be a hit among listeners? If you’re looking for my opinion, just refer to the title.

Damn, that dont even sound like Pharrel. The song was alright. not the best. Like the beat though. To be honest waynes voice is annoying and i get tired of hearing him after a while.

This track was really sub-par to me. The beat was good, but Pharell was on some other stuff. It's not classic status to me. Not at all.

For some reason I was really feelin this one. Pharrell's beat was different and unlike anything else he's really made before, and I liked how they traded off verses. Wayne came hard as well. I bumped this in my car a couple days ago and that made me like it even more. Givin this one a 4.

I just don't really like the production on this one, which is weird because I usually like Pharrell's beats. The lyrics were okay. This is on his new mixtape "Yung Money 3"

I don't know about others, but I am really not digging this production at all. I don't know, but I just wasn't feeling it from Wayne... It is good enough to at least listen to, but it's barely reaching onto 2 stars...

Yes The King Is Back!!! It is about time is isn't doing some wack crap. Hot revolver only got good at the end. Wayne is holding down my city better than anyone. I hate to say it but I love the song. Maybe I am prejudice because I live in the area he does. Louisiana go hard no lie, but the best is Lil wayne and he will say it straight up. The only thing different is that he has the sales to back it up. Tha carter 3 out sold basically everything since the start of the new millennium. I mean the ony thing close was 50 cents debut album. You think you heard the best from wayne and then BANG he got something better. Wayne Till I Die!

This sounds kinda like a milli its like a all out freestyle. The beat is simple yet hypnotizing. Weezy flow is average but I'm kinda getting tired of his wordplay after this one. Pharrell came decent. Average song

Different can be good or different can be bad. Here, different is somewhere in between the two.
@ Dj Baer - That "Yung Money 3" isn't an official release. @ E-Dub - "The beat is simple yet hypnotizing." I couldn't have said it any better!

This one is ok. Lil Wayne is by far NOT THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE...I mean seriously, he's enjoyable to listen to but not the BEST alive- he can be very annoying- for example: this one....my gosh, this is far from the BEST- do yall even hear him lol.....I'm just sayin though. Plus, if you were the BEST- you wouldn't need all those sound affects added to their voices. Nuff said.

Four albums this year? I think thats really overdoing it, people are gonna get sick of him. I think he should re-release tha carter 3 and put out that one similar to heartbreak, his new voice seems better on those type of songs now and save the other carters for years to come. I like this much more than red rum, BANGER very unique, pharrel has become a beast

i like this but this probly won't make any albums...we all know how this works a few tracks slip out quick (like the carter 3 leak)...then weezy goes back in with even harder stuff. solid effort though nice beat

pharrell's beat makes this song so addictive, its crazy. wayne's lyrics are not gettin me fully in tone with the song, but it's good enough.
and, i'm just guessing, but i think this might be on The Rebirth album. i heard something about him & pharrell working on a possible collab for the rebirth. tho im just guessing. |

No no no how can this track have such high ratings? To me it's unbearable. It's even worse than A Milli! The production is horrible, it's not music, it's noise, the beat is boring and Lil Wayne sounds HORRIBLE! I got used to hearing him in some tracks, but here he's awful. No thanx

This is CRACK right here! This is one moment where the experimentation works lovely! I really like the beat and I love the way Pharrell comes on in the beginning rapping just like Weezy. This is very creative and it is definitely taking a chance. I like it a lot! Good beat, and even better lyrics from BOTH artists! EASILY A BANGER...

Just had to clear something up since it seems I am the only 50-cent fan on the site (just kidding).
@Tanner Kaelyn - To date Tha Carter 3 has sold about 3 Million copies so far for the year...50 cent get rich or die tryin sold 7 million copies in the first year. Go look it up on Wiki (or any other source)...Lil Waynes Carter 3 isn't even close...and even farther apart when you look at worldwide sales... But to be fair, that was about 6 years ago when people could still actually sell that much... Just making sure facts are correct when they roll off of people's tongues!
