Why the Wayne hate? The content issue is weak to me. I don't give a fuck about content. We all loved NWA. We all love Goodfellas, Scarface, etc. Not to mention we all grew up on braggadocious that does nothing but boast. The overall product and its sonic value is all that matter. The little purp drinking fucker has turned himself into a great MC, something I never thought I would have ever said 12 years ago. Is he better Talib? Probably not. But to say son isn't spitting is some elitist shit.
Part of the Wayne hate is because of his and ignorant fan's claiming he's the best MC. Call him "great" if you want, you're entitled to that opinion, but I don't think he's as talented as people claim. He has some clever lines but to me, he produces nothing that has a lasting impact on you.
@Ginga Anyone who objectively heard Carter 1 and 2, The YM mixtape, any Sqad Up, Dedication 2, Lil Weeziana, or No Ceilings would admit that he has become a great MC, and couldn't say his material has no lasting impact. True, he panders to the masses. He dumbs down alot like alot of rappers do. Hell drinking that shit has dumbed him down. But Wayne does have songs that will stand time. The Okay Player crowd just don't want to admit it because he doesn't fit into their social conscious box
There's no such thing as objectively listening to music IMO; it either appeals to you or it doesn't. Nothing Wayne has produced has left an impression on me. Just b/c he's a clown & embarrassingly commercial at times doesn't mean he couldn't produce a song I thought was worthwhile. There are any number of artists I can't stand as but have created some amazing songs I still jam to. I wanted to ask though, what songs of his do you believe will stand the test of time?
@RhinoDigital - jay has enough money and enough of a following to sound however he wants. sure he is better than he shows but he could never be talib. good quote though lol
@MusicalEutopia You know that's a lie. Even if Lil Wayne didn't use beats that were such a joke, he's still a terrible emcee compared to Kweli, Mos Def, Slug (of Atmosphere), Mf Doom or any other independent, or even slightly alternative artist I can think of. The only reason that Lil Wayne is at the forefront of "music" is because stupid ignorant people (like Wayne) are into shit music and the sad fact is that the majority of the world is filled with idiots.
I wish people acknowledged skill in the rap industry these days. Life isn't all about money, remember you can't take that shit with you when you die. But knowledge, wisdom, and understanding, that lasts forever. Peace to the gods, keep real hip hop alive, ya dig?
fuck nah dont even compare Weezy to this nigga, this song fucking BLOWS ass compared to Weezy's new shit. I swear to god that this song needs a new producer cuse this shit blows ass. This beat is gay as hell and needs to be switched up
lil wayne is so wack yall say but the funny thing is he is mentioned on every rappers you tube song on the comments page whats up with that he must be doing something right
@Slipnslide305 You have to acknowledge that there are different ways to become known, dumbass. There are the morally "right" ways and there are the wrong.
@royalnash lyrically, lil wayne is wack unless he is on someone else's track in which they are the ones writing what he says. But by himself, he raps about nothing. As a person I bet he's awesome and gets along with everybody, but damn.
talib in my opinion one of the most underated mc's in the game...dude is nice even HOV had to give dude props...should deff be in any ones top 5 dead or alive...
@duster19 Damn with rhyme skill like that YOU SHOULD RAP lol YOU COULD MAKE IT IN THIS BULLSHIT MARKET WHERE IF YOU CAN RHYME TIME WITH FINE WITH LINE WITH DIME WITH MINE WITH SIGN WITH WINE YOU CAN BE RIGHT NEXT TO 50 ON INTERSCOPE!!! (on some serious shit though I completely agree with you)
@stickyyy1 because people come on these pages talking about how great wayne is and how bad real artist like kweli are. Ive never went on a lil wayne page to promote quallity (no pun intended) so i dont understand why they cant bob their heads to their own favorite tracks and leave us alone
