“It’s no surprise that Lil Wayne withdrew his support from the tour documentary “The Carter” - the director, Adam Bhala Lough, shines a hard light on Wayne’s self-destructive tendencies. But Lough’s cinema-verite approach to this young rapper isn’t a hatchet job. What the film gives us is a fascinatingly contradictory figure: a drug addict who writes and memorizes two songs a day, a rock star who says he doesn’t have time for sex, a canny manipulator of image and brand who decides to make a terrible rock album. With its experimental approach to depicting a man and a new type of 21st-century stardom, “The Carter” might be the best hip-hop documentary ever made.” Raj Ranande, The Daily Princetonian, 3/4/2010
