New Weezy

Well, I'm doing a double-feature in this post, since I've been missing days hardcore. Getting ready for the great move to Texas has been time consuming.

The other day, my buddy played me some leaked Lil Wayne, and I heard a song that blew me away. The song, by Russian electronica group t.A.T.u. Their debut single, "All The Things She Said" seemed like a modern reimagining of Roxette or Cascada, and blew me away, so I bought the album. I was eleven.

On the album, I fell in love with "30 Minutes", the song I had heard in the car. Here it is:



Outstanding song, am I right? So I heard this song from Tha Carter IV, and it completely blew me away. Lil Wayne's sampling of "30 Minutes" is REALLY appealing, particularly because it was a little-known song that was a big part of my childhood, and I was very surpised, to say the least, to hear it. Looks like we can't expect this to be a single from his album, unfortunately, but if the rest of the album looks that good, it'll definitely be worth the buy.

The song is "Dear Anne", and it's a reimagining, apparently, of Eminem's classic, "Stan". This song has a great message, too; Lil Wayne refrains from reminding us all how rich he is, and thanks his fans.



Completely pristine.
