"Know What I'm Doin'" (featuring Rick Ross & T-Pain) The lyrics were allegedly used on "Respect" and other tracks from Like Father, Like Son and Birdman's 5 * Stunna. The rappers asked him to record some "Italian-styled spoken word recordings" in 2006. On October 2009, Birdman, Lil Wayne, Cash Money Records and various music distribution outlets were sued for copyright infringement by Thomas Marasciullo, who claimed his voice was used without permission. On December 11, 2006, the album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of over 500,000 copies in the United States. In its second week, the album dropped to number seven on the chart, selling an additional 72,000 copies. This became Birdman's second and Wayne's fifth US top-ten debut. Like Father, Like Son debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 176,000 copies in its first week. Over the course of the project's 20 tracks, continued references to their dope-dealing pasts ("1st Key" and "Over Here Hustlin'") begin to dilute what otherwise is a solid project that ushers in a new Cash Money dynasty." XXL Magazine also praised the album, giving it four stars out of five (XL), saying "With solid production throughout, Wayne's ever-evolving sentence structure and Baby's uncanny swagger, Like Father, Like Son falters only in the diversity department. This is the sure sound of Cash Money steadying the ship and getting back on course". Allmusic gave the album three and a half stars out of five, saying, "There's probably too much get money/stack-paper for those who want Wayne to speak on the injustices New Orleans has suffered post-Katrina, or to get to work on Tha Carter III, but that's not what Like Father, Like Son is about. Like Father, Like Son received mostly positive reviews from music critics.

In January 2009, Birdman said in an interview that a movie based on the title of the album and starring him and Wayne would be released in June 2009, but it was never made.Ĭritical reception Professional ratings Review scores In an interview, Lil Wayne said that "Army Gunz" might be the fourth single from the album.

And he'll still bend over backward for a hot line, fleshing out his long narrative arcs with violent thrusts, never content, like so many rappers these days, simply to rhyme the same word or words that merely resemble each other.
Wayne never lets you forget he's sitting on 20 inches, but when the rim talk wears out he's ready to lay himself bare on the title track.
Wayne effortlessly dominates Like Father, Like Son to the point that Birdman often gets the shaft.įortunately, Baby knows when to just sit back and let Weezy do his thing, as he bounces from naked emotion to popping shots in the span of a single track. A rapper with this much spunk coming out his mouth doesn't need to spend any more time boning up on his skills or trying to impress people with his stamina. Though still a Hot Boy, after nearly a decade in the game Wayne is eager to prove that he's far from a little squirt, regularly beating off the competition with such force that it's understandable if he's feeling a little testy on the duo's new album. After the departure of B.G., Juvenile, Turk, and producer Mannie Fresh, Cash Money CEO Birdman probably spent a lot of time on his knees in thanks that Lil Wayne is still around.
