How come hiphop doesn look at Wayne as a godfather like it does HOV and NAS

[HiiiPower]

The new generation gives Wayne his props. Prolly the most out of all the older statesmen.

Only reason why the 30 and up crowd give Wayne a hard time is cause he is from the south, and his style of rap was very unorthodox at the time.

I say it all the time, if Wayne was from Brooklyn or something, just off his career alone, you motherfukkas would have him over BIGGIE n all these other East Coast legends like Slick Rick, Krs, etc.

lol, fukk outta here, him being from the south has literally nothing to do with it, if any of this was true 3K wouldn’t be highly regarded as one of the GOATS

terrible take

Edit: just realised how old this thread/post was, bro still a moron tho

If Wayne was from BK no one would have heard him.
There would be like 50 nikkaz in his own building that could rap better than him. Not including the bytches and the rest of his block.

He is fortunate he is from the south

Still relevant

He never said anything of substance, he is basically a punchline rapper with melody. Plus he is a spoiled brat and a J.

 

[ManBearPig]

Talent level may have something to do with it

 

[Stick Up Kid]

Wayne is in same category of a Ludacris, T.I., Ross,Jeezy, Gucci… 3rd tier legends

1st tier is reserved for Nas, Hov, BIG, PAC, Scarface, Ice Cube, Rakim,

 

[prophecypro]

He dont handle himself like an OG even though he got a bunch of sons running around

 

[Mac Ten]

Years of trying to drug usage along with the fact that Wayne was trying to S. Carter Jr speaks volumes…

He managed to make a treasure out of trash.


It doesn’t help that Wayne got fukked over by his daddy during the prime of his career.


Wayne has been showing signs of wearing out since 2015
