This thread is about Wayne as an influential rapper. It doesn't seem like you know what being influential means.

The word "influential" when used in hip hop carries a positive connotation.

Weezy's contribution has not raised the bar. Nice try.

"Everyone becomes disposable eventually. That doesn't take away from their influence from prior works."

You consider Rakim, Nas, Slick Rick disposable? On what planet?

and you're more likely to find someone bumping Hybrid Theory than a Lil Wayne track.

Your point?

Even if I play along and assume Wayne had no positive impact on hip hop, you're still wrong that the word has to carry a positive connotation.

Slick Rick and Rakim are 100% irrelevant today. Nas is the rare exception of "golden era" rapper that still is relevant.

Wayne influenced how brehs, dress, dreads ( I get it, a lot of people had them before ), and punchlines ( easy digestible ). For a while, Weezy made rap fun brehs. He also made sing-y flow poppin' again. Cheers to our generation's superstar.

Lil Wayne absolutely HAS to be a top 10 rapper of all time. He has at least three classic albums and over 100 chartered records. Not to mention a fukking classic mixtape series.. before he went on his ridiculous run. He can freestyle better than most rappers (which displays his talent alone) and probably out rap most nikkas in general.. He also put out Drake and Nikki Minaj. I just don't think you can leave him off a top 10 all time list.

Yeah he did make songs that people tended to sing along to more too.

Nas is irrelevant in 2015 as well.

You have a Patriots avi. Which let's me know you probably wear leather sweat pants. The rest of the country is way more influenced by Wayne and Gucci..
Gucci influenced the South and Chicago that's it. Fetty Wap is an outlier...

Wayne's the best rapper ever, in the sense that if you lined up every rapper ever in a room and just told them to rap right then and there, he'd be the nicest. He'd go the longest.

That's the only objective evaluation I use :yeshrug:
:mjlol::mindblown::camby:


the nicest of what?

you honestly think you'd put wayne up against the likes of a jay, em, kendrick, or rappity rap rap nikkas like slaughterhouse or even murda mook and he'd be the NICEST?????


define nicest :jbhmm:
