is Wayne's run from 2006-2009 the greatest run ever....

[2CT]

....for a emcee thats still alive?

everything that nikka dropped during that period was

Drought 3
Carter 3 leaks
No Ceilings
Beat Without Bass
COUNTLESS features
Milli first week

Drake and Nicki wouldn't be stars if it wasn't for this run

Cash Money would be No Limit status if it wasnt for this run

and i know alot of you nikkas are gonna come big up his earlier shyt, C1 is my favorite album by him but you cant deny his run during this period was GAWD status

JA had a better run IMO.

JA had a better run IMO.

Ja didn't create any stars

the success of YMCMB is the direct result of this run, shyt is when you think about it

 

[DaveyDave]

Ice Cube 88-94 pisses all over Wayne's run

 

[BuyandSave]

It's the most overated run ever, for sure. Lol at all of these fools calling him the best rapper alive back then. Carter 2 was hailed as a classic when it had like 3 hot songs on there Motherfukkers saying Wayne was killing rappers on features The dude got ate up by pretty much every rapper whose song he was on...or his song. Amillie - Corey Gunz verse ...Wayne's verse ...care/bear/nigerian hair fukk out of here with that bullshyt.

but being real jay got the goat run from 96-2003

this the only valid argument

Ross ain't sellin shyt so the impact ain't there, though i do agree all his releases have been heatrock

 

[thernbroom]

i think we are witnessing the greatest run ever @ the moment

 

[Majestic Pape]

X's run in the late 90s/early 00s.

 

[Harry B]

X's run in the late 90s/early 00s.

fukk it I can't hate on X man, but musically he wasn't poppin like that after 98
In 99 he had them hits and shyt, so yeah but in 2000 and 2001 he was ranging between average and slightly above average.
Can't even be compared with Big 94-97, Pac 95-96 and shyt like that. The whole wu-tang family 93-97.

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

The best rapper alive thing kinda killed it

 

[Reality]

What's the criteria? Individual sales/revenue? Quality of music? MVP for the label as far as putting the team on?

different answers depending on the criteria. Wayne is definitely in contention on the first and third counts.

Ross ain't sellin shyt so the impact ain't there, though i do agree all his releases have been heatrock

he does have impact tho, made everybody start rapping on trap bmf style songs, wayne remixing his song and using it as a single, and wayne wasnt selling crazy like during that run, carter 3 was the end of that run, and that was the only one where he sold alot during the run, c2 went plat but he wasnt no mega star are nothin, and ross was crown the hottest last year, and killing shyt this year

and the biggest reason i put ross shyt over wayne is cause wayne shyt was freestyles, where he didnt have a to think of a flow or topic or a concept, he just used the other persons flow and just rap about random shyt, ross shyt been full out songs and shyt, having to come up wit flows, concepts, find beats, and he took 2 people that the mainstream had given up on and made them stars(not superstar), all at the same not putting out over the top commercial songs(lollipop)
