“Amazing Amy” Is Basically Gone Girl Retold By Lil Wayne And Migos

“That bitch gon’ kill me, that’d be crazy.”

January 25, 2015

Us Amys seem to pop up in song titles fairly regularly, but it's tough to think of a really great one; off the top of my head, there's Amy Winehouse's self-chastising "Amy, Amy, Amy" and Britney's seedy turn on "If You Seek Amy," but neither of those are particularly a track you'd wear as a badge of honour. Today, though, Amys of the world can rally around Lil Wayne and Migos' gift of "Amazing Amy." With a wink to Gone Girl, Wayne declares undying love for his crazy as fuck and sexy as fuck Amy, who knows what not to say when the police come; meanwhile Takeoff wants her to be the Jada to his Will, and Quavo and Offset both want to buy her handbags. Okay, there's pretty heavy suggestion that the titular Amy is a psychopathic killer who's ultimately out to usurp all her lovers' money and fame. But hey, this track is crazy fun from the moment Wayne declares himself Norman Bates. We'll take it.

"Amazing Amy" is a leftover from Lil Wayne's Sorry 4 The Wait 2 mixtape, which came out earlier this week. Meanwhile, Tha Carter V is in limbo, with Tunechi apparently preparing to sue Birdman and Cash Money.
