The sixth project has been bashed mercilessly by critics as well, with many labeling it the worst of bunch. It&#8217;s been dragged for poor beat selection, questionable features, and inconsistent performances from Weezy. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Despite that, the project did manage to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/920431-lil-waynes-carter-falls-short-lowest-debut-series-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">sell over 100,000 copies first week,<\/a> which was good enough to debut at number two on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. But even though it did do six figures, it was still the lowest-selling album in the collection. Overall, that just goes to show how high the standard is for Carter albums. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Some have come to Lil Wayne&#8217;s defense in recent days, with his daughter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/920287-reginae-carter-defends-lil-wayne-tha-carter-vi-criticism-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">Reginae Carter,<\/a> clapping back at the haters. &#8220;Tha Carter VI\u00a0is trash? That&#8217;s fine, that&#8217;s what you want to say. But let me tell you something about my father and\u00a0Carter VI. This is what I hate about you kids. The fact that y&#8217;all can&#8217;t get on TikTok and do a little dance for it? That don&#8217;t mean that it&#8217;s trash, babe. Okay?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">She continued, &#8220;My dad was talking real sh*t. It&#8217;s stuff on that album that you can hear in 2K, in games, at f*cking malls, at all type of stuff. It&#8217;s universal, my love.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lil Wayne Tha Carter VI<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">She ended her rant with one last message. &#8220;Y&#8217;all need to take y&#8217;all minds out of the TikTok world and get to the real bag. My dad is a lyricist, babe. My dad really talks sh*t. So, if you can&#8217;t understand it, please move in silence like the &#8216;G&#8217; in lasagna and get the f*ck out of here. Thanks. Now that&#8217;s my last time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Joining her defense of Wayne and the LP is nonother than Deion Sanders. Per <a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/news\/lil-wayne-gets-support-from-deion-sanders-after-the-carter-vi-controversy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">AllHipHop,<\/a> the head coach for the Colorado Buffaloes football team posted a short and sweet message on his Instagram Story that read, &#8220;The GOAT!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Just like Reginae&#8217;s support, Coach Prime&#8217;s shouldn&#8217;t come as much of a surprise. These two have built a strong friendship over the last couple of years. Just last year, Wayne invited Deion onto his Apple Music radio show for an interview. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Moreover, the Louisiana rapper shouted out the football icon on his Carter VI track &#8220;Written History.&#8221; &#8220;You know how us skaters are, we grind, n**** \/ Great like Nick Saban, Roll Tide, n**** \/ I&#8217;m like Coach Prime, n****.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Lil Wayne is currently on a brief break from rolling out the album. But next month, he will be back on the road to really kick off his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/917502-lil-wayne-tour-tha-carter-vi-details\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">accompanying tour<\/a> for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/918035-lil-wayne-kicks-carter-tour-ll-cool-bells-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">his June 6 release.<\/a> July 30 will find him in Bristol, Virginia.
