I refuse to listen to this song. I’ll soon be forced to listen to it though…
Yesterday: “Hip-hop” clothing line
Today: Alternative “music”
this is terrible.
and that’s not even me just hating on wayne….
this shit is so bad.
It’s no worse than a song by Fall Out Boy or Paramore, but with that said: No Thanks.
@MZ
That’s part of the problem, fam. So many of these rap cats listen to/collaborate with or emulate some of the worse “rock” music out there.
I just listened to it…
It’s a punkish rock song. It’s like Fall Out Boy on autotune + mescaline… in short, it’s not bad.
If the rest of the album sounds like this, it’ll sell 5 million.
why?
Because it’s not horrible. and it’s Wayne. and it’s a crazy black kid embracing psuedo punkish, mall rock.
there’s an audience for that. Wayne’s got enough star power and enough balls and talent to sell this.
And just as 808 + heartreaks wasn’t inherently great, it had the right formula: a really famous guy embracing a genre that arguably more famous than his own (r+b) + autotune (which hides a multitude of vocal sins) and not horrible songs.
people are bored and want something different.
No, we didn’t show Fishbone or Living Colour or Bad Brains any love. We laughed at Ice T’s BodyCount and over analyzed Mos Def’s Black Jack Johnson crew… We ignore hipster dahlings like TV On The Radio…
but all those dude r knocking holes in the glass celing. Like EU broke thru and made Go-go hot and left Chuck Brown behind, i think Wayne’s album even if it’s just okay will be that one that makes black rock seem marketable.
Believe me I know Reg. I can’t even put all the fault on Wayne, because this is what gets burn & some group like that probably did the music for him.
Is this the same nigga that was rapping about “Project Chicks” and how the “Block is Hot”? Poser is an understatement
I guess Pusha T was right
just read some fucked up news about Eddie Curry’s daughter and her mother found shot & killed in Chicago, very similar to what happened to Jennifer Hudson.
r.i.p.
yo im a big wayne fan but this is grabage. he need to start rappin like he did on the dedication 1 & 2 and drought 3 and the first 2 carters. this shit hes doin now is pure shit
this is really “unpredictable”??
he told us he was gonna do it
Yawn…
If you’re going to emulate a sub-genre of rock, this is the worst kind. Mall/Pop Punk describes this perfectly. Hello Recycle Bin…
let we see dhis whole B.S
I have never been, nor will I ever be a Wayne hater….but this shit is just terrible no matter who it was made by. I respect the attempt at a different outlook, but if you can’t really sing don’t make a rock album.
I’m sure this will make the in-store playlists for Hot Topic stores in every mall

Normally when its time to catch up on The Smoking Section I start on the newest post then scroll down to the bottom then hit previous and keep going til I catch up to the last post I read….
Tonight I hit the bottom of the 1st page and instead of the option to click previous post (older posts, whatever it was) it says
“Page 1 of 64712345»…Last »”
What am I suppose to do with that??! lol I went ahead and hit last thinking (hoping) it would just take me to the page before this one but nope it took me to a post from May something..
Is there still a simple button to take me to the page before this one and I’m just over looking it? I am super exhausted so I guess I could be overlooking it.
Who wants to go thru “Lastest” and click on each post one at a time? and I’m not going to RSS .. I’d rather just miss afew posts here and there.
Play this song on Prom Night and you will not score with the slutty drunk girl
@ Nina
Push the number of the page you want to go to. 2 takes you the next page and so on and so on.
^You can also click the », after the 5, to take you to the next page.
As far as the song goes. I agree there are better rock songs, but there are others that are much worse. If he makes the video anything like what I’m picturing in my head, he’ll probably outsell C3.
RMF…
This song isn’t bad..
Better to have Wayne making half-assed rock music and selling it to the masses than making half-assed hip hop music and calling himself the greatest..
I just punched 6 babies after listening to this track.
Weezy’s Prom Queen must have had acne, braces and a gimp leg.
this song r3ally sucks. but im glad h3 stop rappin 4 a while. now i dnt hav3 2 h3ar lil wayn3 on hip hop radio stations. but p3opl3 will b3 dum enough 2 buy his album. i f33l bad 4 th3 lil wayn3 fanz bcuz h3 r3ally l3t ya’ll down. CANT WAIT 4 D3TOX & R3LAPS3. FUCK BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT. FIF IS ABOUT AS WORST AS LIL WAYN3.
fucking autotune sucks balls.
Lil wayne get ya die on
Wayne should of did a dancehall album, I think he was on that ras tip for a minute
This aint HIP HOP but I bet you a fuckin milli that it will get put in the “URBAN” section in your fave music stores!!!!!
The UK’s Radio 1 will fuckin love this….wankers!
Oh dear.
Lil wayne decide to take his inspiration form the worst forms of Rock out there: FOB and Paramore.
Prom Queen is the result.
I am very curious in how the rest of the album will sound.
i think its great that lil’wayne is trying something new.
i mean it was all good at raping but he brought something new just as his new style that i bet a lot of ppl like it even thou its something you dont like yall should support him cuz yall are his fans you know wut im sayin..so i say great work wayne keep doing ur shit.
