Unfortunately, with summer vacation and the end of the school year approaching, many parents have also heard the phrase "I'm afraid we're gonna have to hold the Nigger back"

Lil Wayne album is on fire. Can't stop listening to it. Pop trash? Did you actually listen to it?
Love the Shoot Me Down track. No, not about guns. The guitar riff is hot and who the hell is D. Smith who sings the vocals? He sounds more like an alternative artist than hip/hop or R&B. Love his voice. I've googled him but found nothing.
Really people, before you judge, listen to the album. It's not your standard issue hip hop album. The lyrics are his fingerprint and the production moves from orchestras, to rock, to pop, to things you can't exactly categorize.
