Feb 3, 2020Best album of 2018. Great album with no skips. The album also gives a reflection of hip hop, whether you're looking for beats or hard-hitting bars, the flow or the message in the lines, old school or new school, the album combines those elements and it gives life. This album is for everybody

Feb 1, 2020After sitting on this album for a while, it holds up really well. My favorite tracks are probably "Demon" and "Let It Fly," but most of them still hold up & I still find myself going back to most of the album from time to time.
-
Sep 29, 2019While this album has about 10-15 tracks that are quality, Wayne overstays his welcome on this one. Many of these songs simply should not have been included on the album.

Mar 30, 2019Lil Wayne is in rare form on the best parts of his fifth installment of the Carter series, but bogs this album's full potential down in a number of underwhelming cuts too.
FAV TRACKS: DON'T CRY, DEDICATE, UPROAR, LET IT FLY, DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, TOOK HIS TIME, USED TO, LET IT ALL WORK OUT
LEAST FAV TRACK: PROBLEMS -
Feb 24, 2019A very well polished and evolved Weezy. Most of the songs are very strong and it does have potential to be a classic in hip-hop over the coming decades.
-
Dec 21, 2018The album is for everyone! We see the tremendous growth of Lil Wayne and that the strength, line and bar of hip hop / rap has been getting stronger and stronger. Everyone should hear this.
-
Nov 19, 2018Best album made by Wayne after The Carter III, from the first track to the fourteenth is a very good album(Mona Lisa, Dedicated and Open Letter above all), the only bad note is the feat with Nicki. After that point the Carter V goes down until the last 2 recordings that take back the album to an high level

Oct 7, 2018Decent album, had about 2 or 3 good songs. Enough to make it a really decent album, nothing too amazing though. Mona Lisa is probably the best rap song I've heard in a long time, and is what really brought my review up to a 6 without it, it's a solid 4 album.

Oct 2, 2018This album is probably objectively better than Tha Carter III, which is a classic. Every song is good and has something for you to uncover. Wayne elicits every emotion. Psychedelic production, incredible melodies, flows, and out of this world lyrics from the martian.
-
Oct 2, 2018Best thing Wayne has done since Tha Carter III. His flow is amazing in many songs and the album has great features. Would highly recommend.
-
Oct 1, 2018Album wasn't anything great but it was just good. Felt like there were few fillers and the album kinda sounds like it was something from 2013 or smh. It didn't really feel fresh if that makes any sense. But glad that finally we hear Wayne's long awaited C5. Worth a listen but can't see myself bumping it more than few times.
-
Oct 1, 2018Lil Wayne is back for tha carter 5 which is a masterpiece. Wayne shows he can continue to make excellent music.
-
Oct 1, 2018it aight fam nothing too crazy nothing too bad it was just an aight album with a lot of good and decent tracks but a few weaker ones

Sep 30, 2018Álbum extraordinário, com toda certeza é o melhor trabalho dele depois do C3, compensou e muito a espera, em termos de flow, rimas, tudo, que prazer foi ouvir tudo isso .. BEST RAPPER ALIVE !
-
Sep 30, 2018Just a great album for any rap fan. Wayne put so much more in this album than he ever has and it is truly great to listen to.
-
Sep 30, 2018Great album! Been a decade long Wayne fan and this is easily my favorite project!
The production is hands down the best I have this year.. -
Sep 30, 2018A solid album that would have been better if some songs did not make the cut. I jump to about a handful of songs. If you are a Wayne fan, this is more of the same, so turn it up loud.

Sep 29, 2018Album was amazing. Been a fan of Wayne since forever. Way better than carter 4. Listening to this you will like some tracks for sure. Each producer killed the production and Wayne didn't fail to deliver
-
Sep 29, 2018This album exceeded my expectations. Not a single "Bad" Wayne verse
on here and the lack of **** lines make it even better. This is by far his most personal and darkest Carter album. -

Sep 29, 2018Tha Carter V was a great album. Honestly the "critics" are against rap culture...
-
Sep 29, 2018AMAZING album, wayne finally sounds matured and gets personal on the record and the structure and placement was great. His flow and bars are as sharp as they have been since no ceilings or Tha Carter III , makes me wonder what the hell he was doing on carter IV or ianahb2
-
Sep 29, 2018Garbage album lil wayne dissappointed me this is a 6/10 at BEST its so disappointing for something we waited many years for, he should just stop rapping forever. I don't care what anyone says. This is just the quick, blunt truth

Sep 29, 2018Dynamic, articulate, courageous, outspoken. Just a few of the adjectives that so inadequately describe. Indeed this great human continues to live and grow. We are privileged to again hear the voice of... the best rapper alive.
This album more than lived up to the hype, music all hip hop-fans can appreciate. -
Sep 29, 2018Excelente álbum, Weezy conseguiu ser maduro o suficiente e introspectivo o bastante para usar storytelling, metáforas e linhas memoráveis em beats com melodias sérias e com samples clássicos, tudo na medida certa. 5 anos de espera e superou minhas expectativas!

Sep 29, 2018It's great, it doesnt have those cringy lines that IANAHB 1 and 2 and C4 had, it's lil wayne that matured, and sounds like a new person, also when it comes to music, it's also fantastic.
-
Sep 29, 2018It is rap masterpiece? Yes it is it’s as awesome as Wayne itself. Best rap album of year
-
Sep 29, 2018Amazing album! Can’t stop listening to it and a huge part of the songs just give me goosebumps all over. Love hearing this weezy!
-
Sep 28, 2018A great album containing some great tracks showcasing not only Wayne's talent as a hip-hop artist but those who feature on the artist as well. The album, however, was disorganised and did not include a clear structure, which took away from its overall effect. Some good beats and vocals, however, it was not worth the 4 year wait.

Sep 28, 2018This by far Lil Wayne's best album since Tha Carter III. The production is amazing, the rhymes are great, his flow is next level on a few of these songs (namely Mona Lisa and Uproar), the features are awesome. It's just a great album. Well worth the wait.
-
Sep 28, 2018Album was amazing. Been rocking with wayne since 06. Way better than carter 4. Listening to this you will like some tracks for sure
-
Sep 28, 2018Amazing album, from lyrics, features, production and overall refinement of this album, has showcased a classic Wayne bringing back his vintage sound in a bigger way, this album was worth the wait.

Oct 10, 2018After the long wait it’s not a disappointing effort, but it’s all over the place.
-
Oct 8, 2018It’s not that C5 is too little, too late; more that the baton between the generations passed some time ago.
-
Oct 5, 2018Tha Carter V was never going to be flawlessly executed--the odds were too stacked against it--but it certainly gives the audience the thrill we were hoping for. It’s a return to form, and a triumphant return for one of the greatest of all time.
