Lil' Wayne - Tha Carter III
I just ripped this from a co-worker yesterday on the strength of the reviews. It's awful. The state of popular hip-hop today is just embarrassing, save for Kanye West, (occasionally) Jay-Z, and a small handful of other guys. Otherwise, it's all about the ones who
aren't in the iTunes top ten.
Erykah Badu - New Amerykah Part One (4th World War)
I've always admired her more than actually liked any of her stuff. I really like this album. It's a total concept album and wasn't designed for radio play but if you're a fan of Funkadelic or post-Purple Rain Prince, you'll like this.
Weezer - Red Album
I heard Heart Songs, cringed uncontrollably, and stopped listening. I remember the days when people were grumbling about Maladroit and Muppet videos... what happened?
