So Many C Notes I Can Sing A Song
Lil’ Wayne “Put Some Keys On That” – You know what? I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that I really doubt that Lil’ Wayne is being at all sincere when he says that he “just realized” that people can’t fuck with him at the start of this track. Actually, I’m fairly convinced that there probably hasn’t been any time in the past few years when Wayne has not been totally aware of his often exasperating skill level as a rapper. “Put Some Keys On That” is the work of a guy totally thrilled by his own talent — there’s just no hiding the pleasure he takes in stringing together his lyrics, or how he often seems surprised and amused by his own tangents. There are so many moments in the track where his rhyme threatens to either collapse or grow repetitive, but he keeps fearlessly pushing onward, as if he’s hell bent on finding something brilliant buried in the back of his head.
