Lights Out Reviews:
Eazy-E (R.I.P.) Would Have Killed Him! 
2002-11-09 - As the commercial histories of Death Row, Ruthless, No Limit and Bad Boy illustrate, the reigns of gangsta-rap dynasties tend to be nasty, brutish and short. The Cash Money label burst onto the scene in 1998 with Juvenile's landmark 400 Degreez and quickly established itself as gangsta rap's next dynasty, complete with a supergroup (The Hot Boys) and an in-house super-producer (Big Tymer Mannie Fresh) with a Fassbinder-like work ethic. But while Cash Money still qualifies as a huge commercial force, it's starting to show the strain of pumping out product at a superhuman pace, as evidenced by a pair of uneven solo releases.
The youngest of The Hot Boys, Lil' Wayne made his debut in 1999 with Tha Block Is Hot, an album distinguished from other Cash Money releases in part by Wayne's refusal to curse. No such noble gestures are to be found on his foul-mouthed second effort (on the explicit record), Lights Out, a gangsta-rap opus seemingly designed for the Murder Dog Magazine demographic, for whom the word "gangsta" has no pejorative connotations. True, the touching "Everything" pays teary-eyed tribute to Wayne's dead father, and "Grown Man" agonizes over adulthood's responsibilities and commitments, but for the most part, Lights Out is dedicated to the fleeting pleasures of life lived for the moment. The album's subject matter—selling drugs, shagging groupies, killing substantial portions of the dirty South—is hardly novel, but Wayne imbues his work with a sense of boyish enthusiasm that keeps matters from getting too grim, in the process capturing the visceral immediacy of Cash Money's best work. At 75+ minutes, Lights Out possesses more than its share of filler, but the undeniable appeal of Wayne's urgent delivery and Mannie Fresh's pop-savvy production suggest that the rapper has a bright future.
fresh 
2000-12-24 - the new cd by lil wayne is a fresh type of cd for the members of his record label.it is not all about the cars and money but about the life of a thug.this cd has a very true and very powerful meaning behind the lyrics.i believe it is the best album the record label has put out in a long time.if u like his other work then i am certain u will like this project.
