its cause he is the GOAT

like who else influences a generation yet not one of those influences can do what wayne does without sounding like he copying/paying direct homage

Like, pop smoke sounds like 50 (in a good way), you can directly see the influences and (again) in a good way pop can imitate 50 and still body it (hotel lobby, got it on me etc)

But if someone tries to imitate wayne (thug) it doesnt sound good at all.

Wayne is the definition of GOAT

people like to shyt on him cause, yes, he's dropped some trash/medicore albums/tapes but the quality is there. He's rapping better than/ at a comparable level with some of the ppl comonly metnioned here (nas, jay etc)

He's not a Royce, but royce isnt wayne either. And thats where this discussion ends.

20+ years of rapping
millions sold and millions made

YET HE STILL RAPS LIKE HE GOT A POINT TO PROVE

THE GOAT

Wayne never fell off imo. Its just that he switched his image up. Thats all. When it comes to actual rapping dude always stayed consistent

If he was still looking like this.

Spitting shyt like this






Ya would probably say he got better. Goes to show how image and aesthetic plays such a important role in how people perceive music.
