Let's be honest, Wayne was the king of a WEAK ERA

[AB Ziggy]

Wayne is my nikka and all but lets not exaggerate his talent. He was the complete standout of one of the worst eras of rap from his music to his persona. That's what made him so popular back in 07-08 during his C3 hype.

Pre 05: lol ain't nobody give a sh-t about Dweyne here

05-07: Lil Wayne was a B-list rapper waiting for better artists to leave him scraps with which to make mixtapes.

08: Lil Wayne has his greatest success in one of the least top-heavy years in hip-hop history, with only a prison-going T.I. and autotune singing Kanye to compete with.

09-11: after effects of hugely successful C3, couple trash albums in this stage, including Rebirth.

Present: With his peers group now back to some level of respectability, Little Dweyne is no longer the standout he once was since most of todays rappers had taken his style and molded it into their unique personas. At the same time, its now pretty clear to both his fans and haters alike he's starting to fall off even though he is still having heavy rotations on the radio.

Lil Wayne, the greatest weak era king of all time.

Wayne was king for a short amount of time.

He didn't hold it down the whole, like dude above said, you had those guys -- plus T.I. and Jeezy.

I'm talking for rappers that were relatively new and blowing up at the time. All of those guys were already established.

eminem didnt drop anything during waynes run on top. when they did drop at the same time wayne lost his stream

 

[CHITLING flavored CEREAL]

wayne's reign on the top was short like leprachauns

 

[NvrCMyNut]

he had a pretty long reign like 5 years 07-11, that's longer than pac's, dmx's, 50's, eminem's

i came in to disagree .. like but after reading all the points presenting ... its fair ..

wayne was king .. era was weak .. this era is a stronger era comparatively speaking and wayne isn't as dominant .. of course i think other factors play a part ... but tis generally true
