After seeing Lil Wayne’s Tron-ed out performance on FN’MTV, we picked up on two more things about Weezy: he embraces the dramatic power of ending a performance by locking himself in his tour bus, and does not believe in rapping while not-walking. For the “A Milli” clip he flips it by starting off stepping out of his tour bus, but the rest is full of loco and motion, Mr. Carter showing it’s hard work just preparing to be so awesome: by the time he gets to the set of the video (at the end of the video, when else), we see his entourage includes a girl to do his dreads, a guy to guard his porta-potty, and most imperatively a girl to spray cologne on his lil wayne.

OK, “you’re like a bitch with no ass you ain’t got shit” could present issues, but do we really want to push words like “venereal disease” and “menstrual bleed” to the bleeped-out margins? Come on, America. I don’t think kids need to be thinking of those as bad words as much as unfortunate incidents in the face of not being properly prepared with condoms and tampons. Lil Wayne is just a free speech crusader who hates herpes. I think we can all get behind a guy like that. And all that nonstop walking? We need a review, new sexman.

Tha Carter III is out and is so good, you guys.

    so since it’s “to be continued,” what will be the next single that this music video leads in to?

    I don’t get it.

  3. i think we can **ALL** get behind a guy like that. (amrit, you said “call”).

    by the way, this track is the best song to put on when the party hits a bit of a lull.

    i bet if ezra from vampire weekend did as much drugs as lil wayne, there continuous one take video for oxford comma would have been as good as this contnuous one take video for a milli. i like lil wayne

  5. I liked some of the lyrics but the overall track production is poor. Sorry.

  6. i dont get the whole wayne thing.

    why did that person spray water (or some liquid) on weezy’s crotch?

    more importantly why does everybody think that this guy is some great artist or something?

    is this really the best we can do for someone “we can all get behind”?

    It’s understandable enough that some of the readers here wouldn’t get it. Not everyone is into hip hop. But, as far as lyrical talent, Lil’ Wayne probably IS the best rapper alive right now.

      If you want to get technical, Lil Wayne is as far from Hip Hop as you can get. Best rapper alive right now? Not by a longshot.

  10. This Lil Wayne’s new “A Milli” music video is a so-so. The song is hot though. Well, II just hope it would support the single very well just like what happened to his smash hit “Lollipop”.

    Lil Wayne has gotten even better now. I’m starting to like his style.

    i still don’t get this fucking wayne hype.

    ghostface
    talib
    andre 3000
    t.i.
    nas
    either member of clipse

    these mc’s might not be the ultimate best right now, but i would definitely say they are past wayne. best rapper alive? he isn’t even the best rapper from the south.

    where is erika baduh at?

  13. A Tribe Called Chris  |   Posted on Jul 6th, 2008

    Erykah Badu is hot.

  14. Wow. I like hip hop, mostly def jux/indie type, but I dig some of the past mainstream MCs (Jay Z, Nas, Kanye). But this new crowd, Lil’s and the Youngs and all that crap, is so unbelievably shite that it blows my face off.
    This is the worst damn beat, he sounds like he needs to shit the whole time. All I kept hearing about is how Lil Wayne is a sick lyricist, hes got weak flow and nothing came out as particularly sick to me. Indie critics, get off this idiot already.

  15. either member of clipse is better than weezy? CLIPSE? really?! REALLY clipse come on.

    Everyone who like him recommend to take Carter3 and enjoy it:)))))))

  18. Holy motherf*ck! I’ve been hearing about this dude all over the place like he’s the second coming of Christ or something. THAT’S what they’re talking about?? That just may be the worst ‘song’ I have ever heard in my entire life. I feel like stabbing my eardrums.
