Tha Carter 3 Pt. 2 An album doesn’t sell over 1 million records the first week without monster singles and a bit of polish and of course, Tha Carter 3 had both. 6 singles were released for the album, all of them fantastic songs. Features included stars like by T-Pain, Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes, Bobby V, Robin Thicke, Juelz Santana and Jay-Z. Production featured names like Kanye West, Swizz Beats, David Banner, Alchemist, Bangladesh, and Cool & Dre.

Tha Carter 3 Pt. 1 This is the album that truly sent Lil Wayne into the stratosphere. The hype around the album was massive. Personally, it is the first album I remember being excited about before it released. Until that point, I just found songs on YouTube, Pandora or the radio and downloaded them on LimeWire or used YouTube to mp3 converter to get songs into my library. I would come to know and love albums after release, but never before had I been hyped BEFORE a release.

Tha Carter 2 Disclaimer: This is probably my favorite Lil Wayne album and one of my favorite projects of all time. This album is more than just the sequel, it is truly a version 2.0 of the first Carter. It is an upgrade in flows, individuality, and overall standout moments. The Fly In, Fly Out is the next level up from Walking In and Out. The beat is more pressing than the laid back series from Tha Carter 1 and Wayne raps each almost like a radio freestyle whereas the first he stays true to the idea of describing the walk through Tha Carter.
