Lights Out

Gritty New Orleans bounce meets a teenage prodigy's hunger. Stripped of later eccentricities, this is raw, street-level storytelling over Mannie Fresh's analog heat.

December 19, 2000 · Cash Money Records

A hungry, high-stakes energy that balances street-level aggression with flashes of youthful arrogance.

Moments Worth Listening For
The frantic, breathless delivery on 'Get Off the Corner' where Wayne sounds like he's physically running from a siren.
The mournful, stripped-back piano melody on 'Tha Blues' that reveals a rare moment of early-career vulnerability.
The way the beat drops out on 'Beef' leaving only the sharp, percussive snap of Wayne's consonants.
