9 upside down

C3
C2
C1
C4
C5

This tbh

Just looking back if C5 cut like 3 songs it might be better than C3 minus nostalgia.

2 - One of the best rap albums of all time need I say more

3 - One of the best rap albums of all time need I say more

1 - Southern rap classic that marked the beginning of the south’s dominance. Same class as Trap Muzik, TM101 etc

4 - Not a classic by any stretch but still pretty solid. Def has some misses but when it hits it HITS. Disappointing at the time but in hindsight it’s probably Wayne best studio album outside the classic trifecta

5 - Pretty good and worthy of returning to occasionally but not a classic. Def his most personal. I feel like it was step down skill wise tho which is disappointing because every Carter prior showcased his elite rapping ability. I feel like this Carter (and most of his output during the 2010s) was more about him trying to figure out how to adapt to the current gen and still be himself. Some of it worked some of it didn’t. Also too much autotune for my taste. I love auto tune but on Wayne’s voice in particular it can get pretty grating very quickly. His natural voice is easily one of the most iconic in rap history, up there with Big’s voice so idk why he feels the need to drown it in autotune but yeah

My personal ranking is as follows:

• Tha Carter 2
• Tha Carter 1
• Tha Carter 3
• Tha Carter 5
• Tha Carter 4

As we all know, the original Carter 3 would've been Wayne's greatest work ever if it didn't get leaked. The retail version that came out in stores just left a lot to be desired in my opinion. Still a solid album (and a classic in hindsight) considering Wayne had to go back into the studio and make a brand new album within the time frame that he had to do it in.

That's why I always have a love/hate relationship with Tha Carter 3, because I know how much better it could've and should've been.

Lil Wayne top 3 rappers OAT and no one can change that fact
