Lil Wayne – How To Love

Yeah… you’re probably not going to like this even if you’re a Wayne fan, and you’re probably going to have a field day with this if you’re one of his detractors. Props to Karen.

  1. What drug did he take to get in the booth for this?

  2. I Like It!……..Great step away from the wack metaphors and recycled punchlines…

  3. Whatever happened to GET MONEY FUCK BITCHES FUCK BITCHES GET MONEY

    Carter 3 was 2008, shit I was like 3 year younger back then. You can’t keep living off past swag Wayne.

  4. This reminds me of when he tried to do rock with the Rebirth album,epic fail.

  5. kinda weird for it to be on the album. not really a fan of this one but i will say that it’s probably his best attempt at “singing” though. at the very least it doesn’t sound auto-tuned out the assho (still a hint of it)

  6. RR says this a the new single off C4, if that’s true it’s a sad day.

  7. If u like this clown then u not hip hop cuz dude is straight garbage!! Dude just needs to give it up already u made yo millions now do us all a favor n put the mic down

  8. This is the worst fucking song I’ve ever heard.

  9. i like when wayne goes in on his emotions – most of you may not know this, but hes a romantic at heart. yeah he talks a big “fuck bitches get money” part.. but thats not who he is

  10. Wayne, just retire

  11. cowbell a real kickdrum louder guitar and if he rapped this track would be aight

  12. actually not bad for wayne singing.

  13. Wow! Wack wack wack, come on wayne

  14. WOW!! I’M A WEEZY FAN BUT THIS IS WACK! SOUNDS LIKE A JUSTIN BIEBER SONG!!

  15. one of wayne’s strongest attempts at R&B and of course this isn’t hip hop. this is the kinda song that women will eat up and usually correlates to being high on the charts. the music industry is a business first so these kinda songs aren’t goin away anytime soon.

  17. What the fuck kind of world do we live in if people actually think this is good..smh

  18. ehh whatever. wayne is just doin it for the ladies like trey said.

    this shit has drakes writing all over it

  19. who produced this? sounds stargateish. wayne tryna get on that khalifa cross over vibe. as a wayne detractor, its nice to hear him try something a little different though. even though this sucks.. also, he should get a katy perry feature. if you’re gonna do pop, do it all the way.

  20. kanye- bittersweet symphony
    kendrick- opposites attract
    big sean- love story
    common- faithful
    j. cole- losing my balance

    i dont see the problem with this at all to be honest. its a smart single, a good melody, and a conscious concept.

  21. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoePdFAGXE4

  22. @Baleed
    I cosign 100%. this is way better than the old bullshit “rock n roll” autotuned bullshit.

    This isn’t what i expected (or wanted) from wayne but I won’t sit here and say its wack because the shit’s catchy.

  23. GODDAMIT! IM ON THE C4 GUYS! IM PART OF YMCMB FUCK! RECOGNIZE

  24. i was looking forward to tha carter 4..but i really dont know now..

  25. honestly rolling papers might be better than C4.

  26. LMFAO. ’nuff said.

  27. the song is okay. but c4 quality ? nah

  28. Well… we found a song that’s worse than Rebecca Black’s Friday.

  29. why say fans and if not your a detractor? just say not a fan or you dont give a shit about this person……….

  30. Its a chill summer song. Isn’t the point of music to express yourself? Yeah its different then his other shit…but isn’t that the point? Everyone is so critical, I can respect someone trying to do some different shit.

  31. j cole and kendrick are tearing it up so waynes switching genres

  32. Drake must have written this

    Can’t say it aint catchy! LOOOL

  33. > j cole and kendrick are tearing it up

    Yeah they got all sorts of internet stans that Wayne could only dream of having.

  34. wack smh,

    *waits for jadakiss and tech nine featured tracks from c4*

  35. he put out two straight rappin records,he gotta make somethin for the top 50(personally i like the song)

  36. Well his rap game isn’t the same…why not try something new the song is almost good to download.

  37. Wayne had too much butt sex in jail
    Damn.. this is basura. Halfway through the song I thought he was going to start rapping about roses and sunflowers

  38. dumbs down….one question to meka, why da fuck you post bullshit things like this if you´re not feeling this?

  39. wayne this shit groovy fuck these niggas only niggas wit no bitches would hate on this shit

  40. I seen this track over at RR. First thought that came to mind was….who am I kidding? I didn’t listen to this shit. Lil Wayne is not good. Jets fool.

  41. NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!……

  42. just noticed the dream’s vocals

  43. Probably his best attempt at singing I’ve heard. Good job by Drake for teaching him how to electronically tune his voice to where it’s tolerable…and writing the song for him. He probably should have saved that one for himself tbh.

  44. Not a Lil Wayne fan at all but this is pretty catchy.
    Better than a lot of the shit he’s been dropping.

    This >>>>>>>> Every song on Rebirth.

  45. “I’m the greatest singer aliiiive!”

  46. I like. It’s what you call a cross-over record… Song is going to be big. You have to admit that this is a good record. Wayne sounds on real on point even with his singing.

  47. I like the production. I’m not really a fan of his “singing” but, the song has crossover appeal. The concept is dope.

  48. Unlike most of the people on this site I’m not trapped in a corner with my musical tastes, aka I’m not a hip-hop blowhard. This song is catchy, it’s dope.

  49. I just have some questions , why would little Wayne need crossover appeal when hes been a pop star for almost ten years now? Shouldnt he be trying to add on to the creativity in hip hop like Kanyes whole last album? and if Drake or J Cole did this same song would it be a good look for crossover appeal or would you be clowing the shit out of them? Wayne should be experimenting with new sounds for the sake of hip hop because he doesnt need to crossover cause those kids already grew up on Wayne. Somebody get Dj Premier , Danger Mouse , Exile and Flying Lotus on the phone and take his music in a new direction. This shit is weak

  50. Go away marty mcfly. Go get your GED or something.

  51. When I think dope dealer/Blood, this is exactly what comes to mind.

  52. Why hate on a laidback joint, We all know wayne ain’t no blood, man im moore blood wearing my red clothes to school… dope joint imo

  53. I mean… it’s alright, maybe the without autotune it might’ve been bearable, hope it’s not on C4

  54. co soign @ yikes, hit the nail on the head!!!!

  55. I just wish Wayne would take some risk again with his music like he tried with the Rebirth album. Shit do something with RJD2 or a live band or something. It worked for Cee lo when he transformed himself into Gnarles Barkley.

  56. I’d probably like this alot better if Drake sung it, but this is a hot record cant deny it. This is gonna shoot up the pop charts.

  57. WOW!! And that a good WOW!
    That came from left field. Definitely the penmenship of Drake, but the melody and the concept is definitely not what you expect of Wayne. The track is a great lead for C4. We got a swag side (6’7″) a raw side (John) and now a systemically light side (How to Love). YM has panned this out perfectly. I’m very impressed. Greater than Rebirth, no doubt.

  58. It’s better than all of Rebirth. And it’s not that bad. But I really don’t wanna see it on Tha Carter 4. Wayne can do romance songs – just look at Comfortable on Tha Carter 3. That was easily the hottest song on the album. But I’m really not sure about this for his new album. It sounds like Bruno fucking Mars.

  59. this is wayyyyyyyyyyyy better than the stuff he been releasing for past couple years..at least theres a message and he didnt overkill it with the autotune…obviously wud b better sung but an actual singer..but i can see this actually going sumwher in the pop charts..i obviously wont b there for the ride this the prob last time ill listen to it unless it becomes a heavy radio spinner which it shud b if he releases it

  60. marty mcfly < wayne and rjd2 wud b interesting

  61. why would little Wayne need crossover appeal when hes been a pop star for almost ten years now?
    ^^^^^^
    ur actually rite…i guess wat people shud say instead of crossover appeal is ..this will b commercially successfull..

    When I think dope dealer/Blood, this is exactly what comes to mind.
    —————-
    looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

  62. i like it…

  63. it’s not really catchy and it’s not really good but it’s pretty good for a lil wayne singing. hands down. he should’ve sit down with frank ocean to write some good r’n'b lyrics.

  64. @Billy…L.M.A.O

  65. All y’all ought to be ashamed of urselves for real. How can u hate on this? It’s called variety, very smart move from him. Not only it’s different but it’s also lyrically outstanding. How many great rappers uk can pull off something this nice. We all know it’ll prolly be the only one of its kind on the album. c’mon.

  66. put this shit BACK in the vault…

  67. Breezy< lol seriously? ashamed? lol the guy who made prom queen and a whole host of other terrible songs?

  68. Swaaag- We all knew that his re-birth album was gonna be different (rock) as he said himself. You can’t judge him off of a few ok songs, why do you think he’s one of the most acclaimed rappers of our time? He raps abt drugs and sex, peeps complain and now this and still u complain? The point is u gotta go outside da box and that’s what makes him standout, what’s da point of him havin the same style/flow/subject as he did when he first started…think abt it, gotta have some growth.

  69. BREEZY..hes been singing for a while now..he had an album practically singing all the way thru so this isnt GROWTH..i honestly dont kno y hes so “acclaimed” probly cos ppl are dick riders and into swag ive heard all of waynes stuff and hes got alot of dope songs but wack is wack..this is aite but wayne on the whole is pretty wack becasue hes after money only

  70. breezy another thing …he actually for once in a loooong time sounded okay singing..hes put us thru soo many painfull attempts at singing (which u have to admit) ur expectations are low for him..thus makin this seem great..also its not new..drake..raps..sings..minaj..raps..sings..its not innovative..but this is catchy tho. good attempt. but its not like its gonna b on repeat in my ipod.

  71. Swaaag- Uhhh if he was after money only he wouldn’t be in the studio as much as people say he is, there has to be some passion to it all. We’ll just have to see when Carter IV drops. Gotta get it tho if u wanne have an opinion lol

  72. lol at people saying he sounds good singing and that there isnt much autotune..
    this is autotuned the fuck out, its jus not on the t-pain like settings, artists use autotune all the time to correct their singing thats why its called AUTOtune it corrects ur voice wen u sing off key n off pitch, but wen its on the t-pain settings it brings out those changes in pitch n givee it the autotune sound that every1 began using.. thats the thing with the t-pain autotune, u have to purposely sing off key to give it those sounds..

  73. its not that bad for what it is

  74. Wayne is a Unicorn…

  75. I love this song. Even though Wayne isn’t rapping, we still get to hear that unique voice of his, just in a different way.

  76. go home weezy

  77. its really not that bad of a SONG ; shit is just super whack and fake for a hip hop artist to do

  78. It’s wierd for Wayne but I think it’s dope.

  79. See what good pussy does to a nigga?

  80. The problem is he sounds WAY too smart on this, so it sounds left to his usual listeners. their used to his more ignorant music. i think its a fantastic song. faggs.

  81. is this lil wayne or drake lol

  82. This is good. You guys need to learn how to listen and expand your variety of music.. Let your artists grow. Damn.

  83. clearly for the biddies

  84. it’s not liked because it’s outside of the normal Lil Wayne shit? and it still gets hated on lmao smh, ohhh or it’s because it’s not “Hip-Hop” right?

  85. C4 is NOT sounding good right now

  86. Mostly ALL of you are idiots, if you were a Wayne fan before & don’t like this song then you’re FAKE! Just cause someone doesn’t do the same shit all the time and get boring doesn’t mean he should retire or sucks. You’re all a bunch of idiots. It’s about his love for making music. STFU.

  87. This c section is interesting cause ive seen Wayne spit straight bars with no added preservatives and people talk about it sucks. Now hes singing with autotune and people loving it and for the record I dont think people are mad at the singing I think its the quality of singing that some dont like. I can tell Drake must have studied albums from people like k-os back in the day , he should put Wayne up on that type of versatility.

  88. smh

  89. fuck outta here with this bullshit…

  90. I LOVE THIS SONG!!! F the haterss. When your getting money your above them!!!!

  91. jae millz is gay

  92. Honestly…about a 3.8/5.0. Still kinda trash though and definately not C4 material. It’s good that Wayne is actually getting good subject matter though. But, sadly, this isn’t Hip Hop. Wayne is going, if he already isn’t, pop…
    (Watch this climb the charts, though. All the hoodrats and white people will be overplaying this…)

  93. Baseball terms: 6’7″ was like a foul tip- close, but not all the way there. John was a strike. I didnt even like I’m Not a Star, and its that much worse after a year of Lex Luger (or imitation) beats. But this right here? Dude just put down the bat, left the stadium and tried to go sign up for softball.

  94. humerous

  95. Don’t suck Lil Wayne’s dick because this shit is “different”. If Jay-Z did some shit like this, you’d fucking break his CDs in half.

    The type of niggas that like this song photoshop pictures of themselves for twitter and make everything black and white except their fitted hat.

  96. Its not what I expected…but not bad. If it was Drake, BOB, or a similar artist people would be swinging from nutsacks. Good music is good music regardless of the artist, and this is decent.

  97. ^^^^

    This nigga beat off to fantasies of Rosa Acosta wearing a pant suit and skipping with him through a field of daisies.

  98. I WANNA FUCK HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  99. This nigga beat off to fantasies of Rosa Acosta wearing a pant suit and skipping with him through a field of daisies.

    This site should have age verification so 12 year olds can’t come on and type bullshit like this. smh

  100. D A F U C K?

  101. this shit is tight. you guys need to diversify

  102. decent record…i hear better singers on this…WAYNE did write this as a matter of fact, so i respect him for that…I peep the Versatility…and for all ppl sayin JOHN is wack..ur taste is below standards and stuck in a box.

  103. very good points. i’m def agree with #4.

    http://live.drjays.com/index.php/2011/05/28/no-weezy-no-5-reasons-were-worried-about-lil-waynes-tha-carter-iv/

  104. All of you are assholes who don’t like this its called diversity I bet half of you don’t know what real music is….

  105. Says the person named “WeezyFBaby4Life!”…
    SMH…

  106. I love Wayne && I adore this. I love everything my babes do. I listen to this daily && post it on my twitter && facebook.

  107. I agree with WeezyFBaby4Life!

  108. Y’all really shouldn’t hate because it’s different and you can’t hate for being different…

  109. this was actually very well written…but i’d rather hear my baby taylor swift or my boo selena gomez sing these lyrics….well, most of them

  110. For real tho…..the beat is not terrible but not my cup o tea…but waynes voice annoys the hell out of me and he just sounds like an asshole talking about this

  111. why yall dont like this? its not typical wayne, but its cool…. doent get me geeked for carter 4… but i feel like i wouldnt mind seeing him perform this

  112. This shit is gonna be so hilariously awful live. Cant wait!

  113. I’m just waiting for the choreographed video with him doing some usher shit.

  114. all ya’ll mother fukaz are haters and all of you shud be anally raped

  115. guy’s, wayne has several styles. smoke some stick and you will learn to love ALL his music. he’s a legend.

    the best rapper allive

  116. Good song, wrong artist.

    Back to Aryeon.

  117. This is real, why does everyone want him to always rap about that bitch stuff. He is diverse unfortunately his fan base is not. This is a great song. Nice to hear him change it up.

  118. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, unfortunately some people are unable to tell when their opinion is complete BS!

    This song is different, new, and artistic. If he made the same old stuff over and over then I would be disappointed in his music… Rock, Hip Hop, R&B… whatever he wants to do is what he wants to do. You cant turn on a radio without hearing him, he’s everywhere and on everyones sh!t. “Has Beens” are piggy backing off of his fame… That’s got to tell you something!
    If you want to hear the same old ish… hit repeat

  119. this is just amazing!! ive listened to it like a billion times and it still makes me happy qeez people cut wayne some slack:/

  120. Ya ngaz buging !!!! This track is G klass by that I mean really really good !!!!! Wanye doing it up like he post too ! Keep it real slim !!!!! !! BRIM love !! BRIM up … (Facebook email dbfamgil@aol.com)

  121. man fuck all you haters… this is weezy showin he can throw it down in allll aspects of the game! bitches

  122. Am I the only one getting tired of rap fans under the impression that good/great rap should talk about shooting and “f*cking b*tches?” I know I’m not.This is really a great track Weezy!

  123. Well sadly this is way better than most of the songs he’s been producing since he left birdman’s side.
