...bright side, the guitar on “Prom Queen” is simple enough that it can be learned by watching the video. Lil’ Wayne and Dave Meyers, who co-directed “Prom Queen,” were probably aware that Lil’ Wayne??s guitar skills aren’t really hard-rocking, nor rocking at all.

Although Lil Wayne??s “Lollipop” is certainly a crowd pleaser, it may not capture hip-hop’s original spirit of activism, according to the Harvard’s Hiphop Archive founder and Executive Director, Marcyliena Morgan. “You get [radio stations saying] ‘let’s play these songs about someone’s butt,’” said Morgan, a professor of African and African American Studies.

...realize that the dreadlocked Lil’ Wayne has mounted the jewel in his hip-hop crown. “Tha Carter III” represents the culmination of the most dramatic hip-hop trilogy of recent memory. As far as content goes, Lil’ Wayne??s newest album doesn’t depart far from his traditional material. With sugary club hits like “Lollipop” and “Got Money” (featuring the perpetually auto-tuned T-Pain), Lil’ Wayne has covered his bases and ensured complete dominance...
