b'Abe Beame (@TheFakeAbeBeame) came through to discuss The Carter, the 2008 documentary following Lil Wayne in the portentous months before his greatest success with The Carter III. Its a dark look at his incredible (and incredibly self destructive) creative process at a time when there was literally no one better on the mic.

Abe pitched this episode in connection with an article he put together about Wayne\'s legendary mixtape run AND the idea of the mixtape as art form.

And the episode is great! The film has some darkness so we do cover some heavy topics, but we do our best to keep it light. And if you wanna hear some of the most "rap scholarly" talk we\'ve ever had on this show, we go DEEP into Wayne\'s style starting at 1:17.'
