UncutSep 19, 2012{A] far superior effort [than Rebirth]. [Feb 2011, p.84]
-
Oct 26, 2010Lil Wayne's latest album, I Am Not a Human Being, is not as experimental as the rapper's previous rock-tinged "Rebirth" set that arrived earlier this year, and most fans will likely appreciate this.
-
This is too short and scattered to put on his top shelf, but it comes awfully close, which is downright astonishing considering the circumstances.
-
While diversity is Lil Wayne's strength, it's a lack of commitment of a different sort that hamstrings this album. Too often Lil Wayne lapses into predictable flow structures, quick ideas paired with built-in rejoinders.
-
Sep 19, 2012It's a perfunctory affair, further fragmented on my download version by the muting of Wayne's stream of expletives, which renders large parts of it unintelligible.
-
It's unclear whether the creative languor stems from the inherent commercial pressure of being the Young Money meal ticket or whether Wayne has exhausted his ideas after compressing a career's worth of songs into three years.
-
I Am Not a Human Being's angry title track showcases Wayne's ability to at once spit funny similes and tough talk, but its punk-hop guitar riffs barely even compete with the ones on his much-derided 2010 rock album, Rebirth.

Jul 28, 2019The occasionally good production and occasionally good bars make this average, but overall it's not a fulfilling listen with not much to come back to.
