Bad Brains
If Lil Wayne were ruthless, he would cruise for the next two years, living off the singles from Carter III, of which there are arguably 18. But he is restless, and perhaps motivated by his goblin mind or perhaps by the success of Kanye's 808s and Heartbreak, he has chosen to go in a new direction at the height of his success. Whereas Kanye tried some cold robotic R&B, it seems like Wayne is going for something unclassifiable.
He's losing his mind and/or fucking around, and this is still probably the hook of the year so far. Emerson said in genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts coming back to us. I have a feeling Weezy will be lobbing cruise missiles.
PS look out for a special appearance by Korn, straight from the year 2000.

I'm almost positive there's a 10,000 word essay to be written about this song, but I can't figure out what it is.
