Lil Wayne is a legit contender for top 10 rapper all-time

[Mastamimd]

E40?? Bizzy??? Who the fukk is ace??? Opinions are like a$$holes.....

Who the fukk is in your top 10????

Sorry it may be a matter of opinion but In A Major Way, E 1999 and Sittin' On Chrome>>>>anything Wayne has ever made.

And my top 10 Face, Nas, Andre 300, Kool G Rap, Rakim, Cube, KRS, Jay, Big, Kane. After that I can list at least 10 more MC's that I would put above Wayne(Redman, Eightball, MJG, Big Pun, Busta Rhymes, Masta Ace, Prodigy, GFK, Ace, Method Man, Raekwon, LL Cool J). That's me being modest as hell, real talk in my opinion Wayne ain't even the best out of the N.O.(Tim Smooth R.I.P., Mac, B.G., Juvenile). Dude had a good run but I'm not gonna let the masses cloud my judgement based off of three overrated ass albums. 400 Degreez, Mind of Mystikal, Chopper City, Shell Shocked all are much better albums than any of Wayne's best. Call me old or whatever, but you wanted my opinion, you got it. The ability to put together a dope album means a lot to me and I'd rather bump Mind of Mystikal over any of The Carter albums any day. Future and Kanye have a lot of influence with this generation, don't really fukk with Future like that but Ye has 2 classics and a dope ass effort and I'll NEVER put dude in a top 25 list.

No need for fabrication from a 33 year old man; I can back up every reason why all of those artists are on my list. And again, opinion bro. Don't get mad at me because I'm not that big of a Wayne fan, sorry man but that has been my list for the past 20 plus years(I forgot about Del, Chuck D, Guru, Big Boi, Bun B, Kool Keith and fukking Black Thought as well...LMAO) but that just adds to how many more people that I'd put above dude. Dude "ran" and era(I personally put T.I. above dude in that era) where he had little competition. T.I. isn't even in the range of top 25 for me and I put him above Wayne...but that's just me. Wayne is overrated as hell, too many of you nigglets drank the kool aid. Dude had a similar "run" and influence as Future, maybe it's my old age but the whole mantra of Wayne being a top 10 ALL TIME MC in the almost 3 full decades of me listening to this shyt is downright LAUGHABLE. And I'm a fan of a lot of dude's music, but he doesn't have one classic.

Moral of the story: stick around long enough, no matter how wack you are... As long as you have a hype machine around you, many will proclaim you "king"

This is exactly why rap dudes flood the market. They know that if they can stick around long enough, most of y'all will do mental backflips to call them "great"

It's already happening with Drake

Nailed it
Dap + rep

Like I said opinions are like a$$holes & half them rappers you mentioned probably has wayne in their top 10

And your top 10 is extremely cliche I don't give dam how old you are

Personally i'm not a fan of wayne I agree that his discography is mediocre but 1 thing I respect about homie is he kept it about bars & was literally trying to bite nikkas heads off during his run. So me arguing with another man for having him top 10 is stupid...

 

[be back in a bit]

Give him top 10 because he flooded the market with disposable music for 4 years? Nah. You want proof Lil Wayne isn't a top 10 contender? Most people here don't give a shyt about his next album or when its coming.

When Nas puts out an album, hip hop heads care.

And Future. Watch. Thought some of these cats were trolling.

I give Future another year or two before he is Lil Wayne status and nobody cares anymore. Same situation. He floods the market with music to keep him relevant, but people will get tired of the formula sooner or later.

I'm not mad at another for having an opinion but for someone to say that he should be consensus top 10 is what I disagree with. You're talking about dude who had a "run" during a weak era in hip-hop, where the competition was watered down as hell. Sorry man but I can't call the dude that ushered an era to where nikkas like Drake and Future are "running the game" or being considered GOAT. All time is close to 30 years of my life, and it's tough for me to say some dude that had a run in one of the weakest eras as top anything. There are a lot of dope rappers that aren't top anything, a lot of good athletes out there as well, but I'm not gonna list Tracy McGrady or Chris Webber as a top 10 basketball player, LMAO.

 

[spliz]

Nah I can't rock wit this and I have legitimate reasons. I grew to respect him tho.

 

[ThaPrez]

he might not be to everyones tastes but he is a legend and has influenced the game and pop culture more than 99%

imo he can spit which always helps but his impact alone is peak levels

hot boys --> solo --> nicki / drake

is up there with anyone's run in most categories

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

a top 10 career on paper?

SURE.

if that floats your boat.

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

objectively yeah

his run and influence from like 06 to 10? right after carter 3 or so? cant be denied

 

[the cac mamba]

what

hes not in my fukkin top 10, im just saying id HEAR an argument

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

what

hes not in my fukkin top 10, im just saying id HEAR an argument

but every time I hear the word objectively for an opinion I feel some type of way I thought you were replying to OP

objectively yea he was hot between those years

When drops and album NAS fans care

There are more hip hop heads that don't care about a Nas project then do
