I’m currently watching this while high and got emotional just now. I always knew I loved this album but I didn’t realize just how much it meant to me until this video. Seeing you show this album to your dad with such pride has me in tears. Lil Wayne deserves all his flowers for just this album ALONE.
I had a simialr vibe from Kanye's reactions. It's beautiful to see others appreciate the music. Especially a family like you two. Thanks so much for the content.
When wayne shot himself it was bc it was a suicide attempt when he was a kid but he missed his heart. It wasnt an accident but intentional, i think he was around 13 when he did it and after that incident he put his all into rap with the support of his mother. Another incident when he got shot at was when his tour bus got shot up but idk if it was b4 or after carter 3 but he wasnt hit im pretty sure
@@bke8073 fr? As a wayne fan im a little disappointed in myself, I wasnt on social media or news around the time it happened so i always assumed it was way back whenever it was told to me.
Not many channels react to tha carter 3, which is lil Wayne's classic album. The album that made me pursue music. I was blown away. There will never be another wayne
This was the very first album I ever owned myself on CD. I watched him win the award for rap album of the year live on TV. I was like ten. Younger kids don't even realize just how huge Wayne was back then. They know he was big but they just don't understand how massive he really was.
I will always remember my brothers friend pulling into our neighborhood playing A milli for about a month straight. Could hear the bass from three streets over.
You gotta show Pops "Playing With Fire" when I bought the album, that's the song that was there instead of "P-Monster" & where is "Don'tGetIt"? that was the album outro
The truth about Carter III is that it had to grow on ppl. The more I listened to it the weeks and months after it came out I saw the genius in the project. But his mixtapes after Carter II leading up to III were crazy. At that time he was the mixtape King before Gucci took over the mixtape game. It was a commercial project but it took him to new heights. Wish they promoted Carter II like they did 3.
Love to see this, this was one of my dad’s favorite albums, may he rest easy, he played it religiously when it dropped & personally is my favorite of Tha Carter series!
I remember when this dropped me and the guys went and copped it, headed back to the crib got faded and sat and listened to the whole joint checking for all the Bars. Memories mann 🔥▶️
8:05 I'd like to thank pops for pointing out those violins, because all these long years--I never noticed them. They are, indeed, going off. 58:14 thank you for including this. That little guitar section has always been my favorite and to hear pops call it "genius" is the ultimate validation.
What a great album. My favorite Wayne album and the first I actually listened to all the way through. Your father was right about the instrumentation on the album. Lots of instruments, which is probably why I took such a liking to it. Hadn't really noticed before.
The story behind shooting him self was not in a car. His mom told him he wasn’t going to rap. He went to her room and grabbed her gun. He put it to his chest and ended up pulling the trigger.
“They can’t stop me” is a lot more nuanced than just rappers, the government has tried to censor rappers since the creation of Gangster Rap, I’m sure Lil Wayne had big law troubles around the time of this release or at least throughout the time he was at his peak/biggest.
"Why do all the rappers think somebody is trying to stop them??" I like that energy but the reason why is because Rap is the only musical genre that's inherently competitive and it's always been that way, it's like a sport basically. Asking why do rappers rap about someone trying to stop them or being better than other rappers is like asking if LeBron James if he thinks the players on the team he's playing against that night are trying to beat him.
This album changed the way I looked at Wayne just in general I knew the man was talented and he could rap but this album put him in that GOAT Conversation and propelled him into Legend Status and this album birth a whole generation of rappers for good or for worst and around this time period Wayne was unstoppable/untouchable all while sipping on dat Lean,I definitely recommend y’all watching the Carter III backstory it’s a very interesting story simply cause this album was so anticipated and it was pushed back many times cause of Leaks but still Wayne pulled off the impossible and that’s becoming the “Best Rapper Alive” and actually having the world/hip hop world not combat him over the title✍🏽🐐🔥🎯💯
Static Major wrote for a lot of R&B and rap artists. He died on operation table when doctors gave him an emergency trake in his throat and accidentally killed him I believe
I love this album. It will forever be one of my favorites. Too bad that if you didn't buy the first release of the album you didn't get the song Playing With Fire. That song is still one of my all time favorite Wayne songs. Glad that y'all reacted to this album.
Just found this channel I'm hella late. But this album will forever be one my top 5 favorite rap albums of all times. Was fire in high school. Hits even better today tbh
Loved that you chose to revisit this album with your pops! Not sure if you were a big T.I. fan but for me his King album was one of the best hip hop albums of the 2000’s. Can’t wait to see the next video!
I haven't checked out your channel in a while, but this popped up on my recommended and I had to click immediately. I'm super happy as well to see you got a sponsor on this video! Hope all is well. Also, sorry 4 tha wait 1/2 and no ceilings 1/2. any of the dedication mixtapes, pretty much any of his mixtapes!
To ya pops point about competition. As a rapper, who's been rapping since a kid, it's honestly how hiphop culture is. Bragging about you and yours, (be it true or lies) tend to lead into projecting that others have become aware of the things that you've done. And for better or worse, those people move in response to your alleged greatness.
Rip to static major he was From kentucky Where i am also from He was the lead singer from the r&b group Playa from Louisville He also produce for the late aaliyah Static Major passed away from health problems
I played this shit heavy in freshman year hs in 08. Got in trouble too, mama heard cussing and that was it. To be a young teen again and listen to this...man. And yeah, bout time y'all give Mr Tallahassee Pain a listen, even though most of his music is stripper anthems 😂
This is my first time watching a reaction to an album, this is the first and favorite album of his that I got back in the day. I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. Thank you!
Ok there’s mixtape Wayne & then there’s album Wayne so u will get 2 different versions of Wayne when u listen to Wayne depending on what project u listening to
It’s not that other rappers will stop them, at the time the album came out, rap was ground upon. When he says “they” can’t stop me, the “they” is the establishment. At the time radio still meant something and a lot of rappers didn’t get air time simple because the genre wasn’t loved by those in charge.
Please show your dad Dedication 2 which is definitely his best mixtape. Wayne released it a couple months after Carter 2 and The Dedication, and it has him on his A game right after Hurricane Katrina. Skits, interludes, and fire instrumentals make it dope as hell
You missed the final track DontGetIt! Also I think you should've put Playin With Fire back in the mix instead of Pussy Monster, the way the album was intended to be heard, I think your dad would've loved that track!
Tie My Hands always been a interesting song. If for no other reason than I wish he’d explore that side of him more. Easily one of his most mature songs.
fun fact about the song comfortable.. kanye used the same violin pattern from alicia keys - you dont know my name .. if you listen to the end of each song it’s literally the same .
I think your dad will love this album, it's not a typical rap album but it's my favorite of all time and it's called "distance relatives" from Nas and Damian Marley 🙏🏿💯
i would love to see u guys do it was written by nas. everyone knows illmatic but it was written has always been my personal favorite from him .. imo no other album can top that one lyrically from start to finish. love your videos!
I’m currently watching this while high and got emotional just now. I always knew I loved this album but I didn’t realize just how much it meant to me until this video.

I cant chose between 2 and 3 , both are such great albums.
I had a simialr vibe from Kanye's reactions. It's beautiful to see others appreciate the music. Especially a family like you two. Thanks so much for the content.
@@flapdrol75 same here. I love both of em but I tend to lean towards C2 more cause it felt more grimey and C3 was more commercial

@@BoboKoyo I just looked it up it was in 2015
That was Baby that had him shot at. For some reason ppl don't talk about it lol
the tour bus shooting was a lot later than Carter 3, it was like 2015 and Carter 3 came out in 2008
Funny fact about A Milli… Wayne didn’t know that the sample was saying “a Milli”. He thought it was “I’m illy” hence why he kept saying “I’m ill” lol
lmfaoo i never heard this! everytime i hear that song imma think of only this lol
Chasing Shadows - ILL
You’re welcome
his first verse: A millionaire, I'm a Young Money millionaire
C3 was the first cd I bought when I started driving, it'll always have a special place for me! Y'all gotta get into mixtape Wayne too!

@@nousername2942 c3 is my favourite in the trilogy tbh.
@@nousername2942 facts, still killing it to this very day
Carter 1 and 2 are miles above Carter 3 lyrically. If you haven't listened, you should bro
Bruh pops always gon point out something in the beat that I’ve never realized his ear gold 🔥
I will always remember my brothers friend pulling into our neighborhood playing A milli for about a month straight. Could hear the bass from three streets over.
I played this so much the summer of 2008 on my first generation PSP (when it was metal framing). Brings back so many memories!
PSP and summer of 2008 w/ the white sidekick phone. take me back lol

The orchestra loop in Comfortable was also used by Kanye in Alicia Key’s ‘You Don’t Know My Name’s outro
Will never forget about senior year me and my friends going to the mall jamming to this album
DA DROUGHT 3 FOR SURE, Keep up the work boys. Shoutout the sponsor 😉
Da drought 3 and dedication 2
Yes sir. Thats my favorite mixtape 🔥.
Drought 3 for sure but No Ceilings is underrated
Tha Carter 3 Mixtape
this whole album is heat. gotta do carter IV too cause 6 foot 7 foot got some of the hardest lyrics ever
I remember when this dropped me and the guys went and copped it, headed back to the crib got faded and sat and listened to the whole joint checking for all the Bars. Memories mann 🔥▶️
We gotta do Tha Carter 2 and 1 after this. Pops would love to hear the first trilogy.
Carter 2 is my favorite Wheezy Album but of course his mixtapes are legendary. Good reaction. Keep going.

58:14 thank you for including this. That little guitar section has always been my favorite and to hear pops call it "genius" is the ultimate validation.

Another album you guys should absolutely listen to is Dr Dre’s Compton album.
That albums is great all the way through!
Big facts! A largely slept-on album..bananas sonically.
This my favorite album. Wayne the 🐐
AHHHHH !! my favorite rapper im crying 😭i love that you & your dad are matching 😂🫶🏽
So excited for this! Such a classic feel good album🙌🏽
I agree with you, No Ceilings would be the mixtape I would show your dad as well.

When your dad said “8x platinum, in 2020?” He sounded just like Wayne when he said “Gucci who? Gucci mane?” When they told him about the Goat list
finally, this album was the first album i ever listened to, and also my first touch with rap music aside from MTV music playing eminem or 50cent
Yes I've been waiting for this reaction!!! Comfortable is my favorite song of the album 😁
Love that song
Static Major wrote for a lot of R&B and rap artists. He died on operation table when doctors gave him an emergency trake in his throat and accidentally killed him I believe
Bro I would love to see y’all’s reaction to Tha Carter II, that would be a legendary reaction
That “They can not see me like Hitler, it’s the New Orleans night mare” went over my head for so long
I misheard this line as hey look for so long holy shit
🤯
I love this album. It will forever be one of my favorites. Too bad that if you didn't buy the first release of the album you didn't get the song Playing With Fire. That song is still one of my all time favorite Wayne songs. Glad that y'all reacted to this album.
Loved the moment in Comfortsble when your dad giggled and then Weezy giggled 😂
I love this channel cause it re-introduced me to albums I haven’t listened to in so long.
No ceilings, da drought 3, tha carter 4
Pops is so fire love how he listened and embraced my fav album of all time
I’ve been waiting my whole life for this moment 🙏
You guys should do Lupe. So underrated.
Food and liquor was such a good album.
Also touch the sky with kanye is another classic!
The fact that this was 14 years ago is scary. Time flies so fast.
Watching on Father’s Day. Good stuff you and your pops!
Dr Carter is my favourite song on the album, also the most creative in my opinion, the whole concept about saving hip-hop as a doctor ❤️
For some reason phone home is my favorite
Just found this channel I'm hella late. But this album will forever be one my top 5 favorite rap albums of all times. Was fire in high school. Hits even better today tbh
Loved that you chose to revisit this album with your pops! Not sure if you were a big T.I. fan but for me his King album was one of the best hip hop albums of the 2000’s. Can’t wait to see the next video!
This album dropped one day after I turned 22 definitely one of Wayne’s best projects of his career
It's his best album
You have to do no ceilings but make sure he knows that Wayne basically killed everyone’s beats more than the original!
I haven't checked out your channel in a while, but this popped up on my recommended and I had to click immediately. I'm super happy as well to see you got a sponsor on this video! Hope all is well. Also, sorry 4 tha wait 1/2 and no ceilings 1/2. any of the dedication mixtapes, pretty much any of his mixtapes!
This was a great Reaction, Amazing. Can't what for y'all to hear more Wayne. Definitely can't wait for y'all to react to MBDTF.
Y’all gotta remember this album came out right after Katrina too. This was Special *
Need to do the No Ceiling mix tape
Lil Wayne -The drought is over 3 - carter 3 sessions us a must! It was the original carter3 album until it was leaked
Dad made me realize how musical this was

No ceilings please one of my favorite Wayne mixtape highly recommended y’all to react to it
Rip to static major he was
From kentucky
Where i am also from
He was the lead singer from the r&b group
Playa from Louisville
He also produce for the late aaliyah
Static Major passed away from health problems
Your pops has a good ear fir production. Pointing out stuff that I hear but I'm not really hearing if you get me lol. Great reaction 💪🏾
No Ceilings is on Spotify as an album
Even though it was removed from the album you should still play him Playing with fire
Favorite mixtapes:Dedication 2, Suffix, drought 3, no ceilings. Love the channel!
Love that he realized the dirty south type beat with a Millie
I played this shit heavy in freshman year hs in 08. Got in trouble too, mama heard cussing and that was it. To be a young teen again and listen to this...man.
And yeah, bout time y'all give Mr Tallahassee Pain a listen, even though most of his music is stripper anthems 😂
tha carter 4 is a MUST
This is my first time watching a reaction to an album, this is the first and favorite album of his that I got back in the day. I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. Thank you!
Love the channel! You GOTTA do C4 and C5 now! Both have some bangers on them. Would love to see Pops hear Mona Lisa 😂
Most definitely need to do Da Drought 3! Classic mixtape! Took over everyone's beats. Great channel!
Mixtapes:
Any of the Droughts! (Drought 3 was best to me)
No Ceilings 2
Sorry 4 The Wait
Dedication Series (2 & 5 are my favs of that series)
No ceilings, drought 3 and dedication 2!
You could also just do Wayne’s features
Tell him “mixtape weezy” is like a entirely different animal
Y’all forgot to do the lollipop remix with Kanye west!!!!! Like Doritos That’s nacho cheeeesssseeeee!!!
One of the best remixes of all time

This is obviously the peaks of his powers and most successful album which was great. But that Carter 2 was on another level 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Why didn’t you do the deluxe? Pops needed to hear that lollipop remix
Finally getting a dad reacting to C3. Took a minute 🔥🔥
Brhh the dad thanks there’s a dude yelling a milli for 5 minutes 🤣🤣🤣
Dad is tunning all this stuff out. All these rappers sound the same to him . I can tell by his responses . 😄😄
Yes!!!! I've been waiting for this one
The string sample from Comfortable is sampled from the end of You Don’t Know My Name by Alicia Keyz which is why he shouted out Kanye at the end
Wow! You just keep the hits coming. Hope your dad realizes what great taste you have. 🔥
Comfortable is so epic...yes yeeze did the beat
