Let's be real right now... will any rapper stay at the top of rap as long as Lil Wayne?

wayne didn't get big until carter 3, he quickly fell off
Jeezy's run was a lot more impressive

C4 sold a millie 1st week and 2.5 overal though

he had had about 12 top 10 hits since C3.

he is on everybody's songs and is the last superstar rapper to come out since mid 2000s

we cant lose, daddy :wow:

Wayne hasn't been on the top since he went to jail....

The main thing that keeps him hot is the fact he is willing and does features for damn near every popular artist in the game right now. 06-10 was the Lil Wayne era in my opinon.... But I don't think anybody even gets exicted about a song having a Lil Wayne feature on it anymore..

I mean if you want to base him being on top but how many mainstream radio plays he gets. Sure then he is on top, but we all know that radio is about politics and payola....

EVen he knows he isn't a top MC anymore, Why you think he stopped calling himself "The Best Rapper Alive"?

He's been hot for so long and never went away for any period of time.. so people hate him..

He was on top 2008-2011.. Kanye was on top 2005-2007 selling 860,000/960,000 first week, 2-3 million overall and grammys.

Drake took his spot and Kendrick too now.

That was two years ago, and Wayne has no buzz right now, isn't even a factor in the scene plus they sales number are suspect

so basically from 2008 and 2011 Wayne was on top of the rap game 3 years

Jeezy had 3peat platinum albums from 2005-2008 and he did with less build it

Wayne had mixtape after mixtape and two albums to make him into a platinum rapper, I'm not counting his old album that went platinum in the
past era
Jeezy came out the gate and was more consistent, Wayne flooded the market with material and was literally force down the throats of the people
don't noboy bang the Carter 1 or 2 no more, shyt nobody bang the carter 3 or 4 either, 101 still get burn on DJ's playlist especially that Trapstar song

T-pain was also on everybody songs that don't mean shyt, that means he was whoring himself out for money, which is what you gotta do
when you not selling records consistently

He's dropping mixtapes, cause that's what got him to where he is now..... and it forced top rappers to start putting out mixtapes to feed their fans.

he drops mixtapes= that's for benchwarmers

raps over other peoples beats= he's going backwards

just admit that you don't like Wayne, and no matter what he does you will not be satisfied with it.
