That makes it problematic to define Young Money as a rap group as well. Young Money’s been around long enough to have FORMER signees? Apparently so. There are actual lists of “current” and “former” artists on the Young Money roster floating around the internet. The problem is that Weezy takes Young Money more seriously than a loose affiliation – he clearly intends for it to be a full-fledged label. One might try to define Young Money as a rap collective instead – a loosely affiliated group of rappers that are friends with Lil Wayne and do records with each other. In fact the only two labels of record on this new CD are Cash Money Records and Universal Motown. Now theoretically Young Money Entertainment is Lil Wayne’s vanity imprint, the one which budding rap star Drake is signed to, but “We Are Young Money” is not being released under that imprint. Steady Mobbin’ ft.It’s surprisingly hard to define what or perhaps WHO Young Money is. Lil Wayne, Jae Millz & Gudda Gudda & Pleasure Pġ1.

And where is Bow Wow ? last time we checked he was bragging about being signed to Young MoneyĪll in all, “We Are Young Money” gets an “E” for effort.” I hope the solo albums are more creative and have more direction- can’t wait to hear em’!ġ.
“Play In My Band ” gives some missing soul, but Omarion might have contributed a little more spice to the album- but then again we’ll never know. Wayne likes to experiment on the rock n’ roll side and through-out the album it’s very evident that he couldn’t wait to bring his guitar into the studio. Parker” is probably the most ambitious of all the rhythms with killer drums and auto-tuned harmonies. I must say, although the album is scattered all over the place, the beats make listening to certain songs bearable. “New Shit” has potential and “She Is Gone” induces nervous laughter with the chorus “Where my old lady? Imma kill that bitch!” I wonder where are Lil’ Twists and Lil’ Chuckees parents? It’s really not cool to click on a track that brags about “passing the dutch with the left hand” and hear the voice of a ten year old.
If you want to hear an album full of Mack Maine and Jae Millz I suggest you run and get your copy now, otherwise if you’re tired of hearing Lil’ Wayne refer to goons, goblins and p*ssy skip it all together.
Things start off well with “Gooder” but seem to go downhill from there. Breakout stars Drake and Nicki Minaj appear on less than the five tracks out of the fifteen and Lil Wayne’s suspected love interest Shanell pops up on only two. They’re debut group album “We Are Young Money” should be named “The Carter 4” because Lil’ Wayne has more verses on it than the entire Young Money roster put together.
