December 6, 2005 · Cash Money Records (4)

A high-stakes mixture of untouchable arrogance and late-night street weariness.

AllMusic

Where This Album Departs

How does Tha Carter II sound next to the rest of Lil Wayne's catalogue?

Drums+2.9σ

The instrumentation foregrounds drums far more than the catalogue usually does.
