Legacy Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Lil Wayne is not even as bad as everyone makes him out to be. He's actually a pretty good rapper. Much better than the Soulja Boy's and Gucci's. imo, he's one of the best mainstream rappers there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you compare him to the wackest rappers in the game, then yeah, he's pretty [expletive]ing good. But when you compare him to the legends like Big, Pac, Jay and Nas, he's not in that category. He's put out too much wackness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Bomba Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Wayne is just so damn bad now. Maybe saying Lil B is better is an overstatement, but he has fallen off so strongly. In his early career, listeners could at least recognize his talent, but with songs like 6'7 or Fire Flame, I find myself having to turn the song off.

I thought the beat was pretty cool, and some decent verses. I dunno. Didn't seem as bad as some of his auto tune wackness and stuff like that.

They were done by the same producers but the name slips my mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JYD Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 ^Bangladesh?I think. I liked both of those beats. Decent amount of creativity.

kingfish Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 6'7 is a beast song. Â It may be too hard for yall, thats why yall dont like it. <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Whether people like him or not, at the end of the day Wayne is going to be remembered as one of the best ever because no one will ever have his longevity. Dude has been dropping real albums since he was like 16 with Cash Money. He's only in his mid 20's so he's going to be around for a very, very long time. All 3 Carter's have been great and he's got some classic mixtapes. People just choose to hate on him because its the cool thing to do on the internet.

The Truth Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I hate on him for many different reasons, but it has nothing to do with wanting to be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Bomba Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 The people "hate because it's cool" is also the most overused excuse on the Internet. It has nothing to do with me disliking the guy. Dedication 1 and 2 and The Carter 2 are in constant rotation in my iPod. He just hasn't made good music since, and the music he has made is pittful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Ceilings was 50/50 for me because it had some great songs and some average ones.  The Drought mixtapes are my favorites though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guru Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I'm not going to get into an argument about musical preference here because I think that is the stupidest thing to argue about. But I still do stand by Flash's point that a lot of people hate on Wayne because it is the cool thing to do on the internet. I can understand people hating his whole gay rock phrase but overall he is not a horrible rapper. You go back to 2007-2008ish and I bet you this topic would have went differently. People were all over his dick when The Carter 3 came out. It also probably has to do with this new movement in recent years on the internet in which "all mainstream stuff is garbage". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carter 3 had to be the most hyped up album I ever seen. People were on edge waiting for that shit and I don't remember too many people being disappointed.

Makaveli Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Compared to the best rappers alive, Lil Wayne is just about average, so saying he's the best rapper alive (lol) is obviously going a too far imo. But compared to other mainstream rappers, who also get tons of radio play, Lil Wayne is at the top of the bunch. I personally don't like Wayne's style, delivery and often i'm not a fond to the beats he uses, but some of the stuff he released about 5 years ago or so is listenable.

kingfish Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I am not a human being was a good album. Not his best but it has like 5 songs on there which are really good.

Not saying Sublime is a typical internet hater, because he raises some good points about Wayne, but this sums it up in general when it comes to the topic of Lil Wayne.  I am not a human being was a good album. Not his best but it has like 5 songs on there which are really good.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfLFyrr4q24 This song go hard. :glasses:It's alright.

Flash Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I'm Not a Human Being was just a bunch of songs that weren't good enough to make Carter 3, the Young Money CD or No Ceilings from what I understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
