Auf der anderen Seite des Atlantiks wurde vor allem Lil Waynes Ausflug in das Rockbusiness als einer der niederschmetternden Momente des Jahres wahrgenommen. Unter anderem die Village Voice und AV Club im Folgenden:

“Yet the hottest label around also released one of the year’s biggest flops in Rebirth, a long-threatened, shockingly awful attempt at a rock album by Lil Wayne, who has no business singing or banging away at the few chords he’s learned on electric guitar. Rebirth is an album of fantastic miscalculation, a lobotomized slab of ’80s hard-rock cheese from an artist who seems to have gotten most of his ideas about rock ’n’ roll from David Lee Roth-era Van Halen music videos.”

(AV Club über das Rockalbum des Hip-Hop-Stars Lil Wayne)

“Lil Wayne’s rock album was as “eagerly anticipated” as tax season, a divorce court hearing, or the icy embrace of death itself. Watching the gifted rhymer aimlessly dick around with a guitar was like watching Picasso toss his brush in a dumpster and say, “You know, painting’s cool and all, but I’d really just like to build model ships.” (…) “Rebirth”, a funkless, Aquanet Autotune gargle session that Universal didn’t have the good sense to lose behind a filing cabinet. The only way Wayne could have fucked his career up worse is if he went to jail. Oh, right…”
