Lil Wayne- "Tha Carter VI" Reaction - Is this Lil Wayne's final album?

Lil Wayne- "Tha Carter VI" Reaction

The wait is over — Lil Wayne finally blessed the culture with Tha Carter VI after a seven-year hiatus, and The Blac Pill got the full breakdown. We dive into every part of this momentous drop: first up, he hit Madison Square Garden on release day, and the full 37-show North America tour is on deck. But fans noticed the glaring omission of New Orleans and that got conversation buzzing.

Feature-wise Wayne went all out: Bono, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, even Andrea Bocelli all punched their tickets. The opener “King Carter” delivered bars, but others felt sterile or unneeded. Big Sean popped off, Jelly Roll dropped heat, but some collabs felt mismatched—like genre clash meets forced flex.

Social media is split about Wayne’s relevance. TikTok is blasting “The Days” as the new NBA Finals anthem, while X (fka Twitter) has users saying “sounds like he retired years ago.” Over on Reddit, one user said, “this album feels like a mixed bag…some genuinely beautiful songs, others meh.” Another dropped, “I’ll just replay Tha Carter III”—and lots of folks seconded that sentiment.

Critics are sounding off too—Pitchfork, Axios, even The Shade Room are weighing in. Some say this album is a bold legacy play, others say Wayne might be living in nostalgia too long. We’re unpacking what tracks fire, which ones flop, and what this means for Wayne’s future—especially if he’s skipping New Orleans, a symbolic snub.

Tha Carter VI isn't just another album—it’s a statement. We ask if Wayne still got his spot at the top or if it’s missing the mark. Whether you're a diehard or a skeptic, this episode is made for you.
