Even back in high school and college I stayed getting into debates when it came to his music because I NEVER could see what made him so great in people's eyes. Weird voices, cartoonish punchlines and mufukkas was really mentioning him next to Nas, Jay, Big, Pac, etc.


I would ask somebody to recite to me a "lyrical" Wayne verse and they'd quote some shyt like his verse from We Takin Over. I would literally :gucci: at the fact that they found that shyt to be lyrical. That whole "Wayne is G.O.A.T" era was odd to me.

And then people talk shyt about Kendrick and his voices lol. Whether you like Kendrick or not at least he focuses on albums and not just half ass verses all the time. How does the best rapper of the Millennial Generation not have a classic album? :gucci: Closest he got was Carter 2 and that was like a 4 mic album.

I was especially shocked to see Scarface say how dope Wayne was and how he was one of the greatest :mjlol: dudes really do get tricked by when rappers have dope production.

I was listening to Lil' Wayne in 7th grade, I had the Hot Boys albums, and then kinda phased out, til he came back with '500 Degreez', which, though not highly regarded elsewhere, in my group of friends, it became a kind of classic that summer, and the next. Then, "The Carter" dropped, and that was like US at the time, the flows, the bars, the beats, the concepts, it was a classic, at the moment, and I think holds up over time. Carter 2 was the same way, though it took me a few years to appreciate that album as much, as my circumstances had changed much, by late 2005. His best run was 04-07, the beginning of the end was "Carter 3", which shaped the rest of his career, sloppy, unfocused, self indulgent.

He is now a singular embarrassment, to both himself, the career he had, and the entire genre in general, not to mention as a person, whom I have come to loathe, for his immaturity, apathy, and lack of qualities found in any respectable person.

You had to get older to realize he was trash:stopitslime:

I knew he was trash in the late 90s when I was a kid. He had a few years where he was impressive from around 06-10 but besides that he been trash.

Legend. fukk the hate his legacy is sealed. The fact that people are still waiting on a consistent comeback from him is a testament to his legacy.

These days, when he kills it, he kills it. He's the Kobe Bryant of rap. He has a lot of hardware but owns a lot of bad records.
