Wayne was the greatest rapper alive at one point :yeshrug:

Drake (who is the current king of this gen) hasnt even reached half of what Weezy was doing in the eye of his storm :ohlawd:

Yeah but all of his albums sandwiched between the Carter series has only gone gold. Like Rebirth and IANAHB only went Gold after the Carter 3 and now the second one is only Gold after the Carter 4. So I don't think that's indicative of Wayne's fan base dwindling that much. Either that or something fishy is going on with his label buying albums or something. Now if he drops an album named C5 and it only goes gold than you may be onto something.

Man Ive heard this excuse and Im not sure Im buying it. I dont see what changing his album name has to do with anything, so he can only sell records when he names his shyt Carter?

Rebirth didnt go plat cause it was a rock album, if the beatles in their heyday went all the way left and tried to release a country album im sure they would see a massive decline in their sales too. And the first IANAHB is basically plat but he was in jail when that album came out, I didnt even know it was coming out when it came out and they werent able to put a full promotional effort behind it same thing kinda happened to T.I. with No Mercy.

IANAHB2 isnt a flop by any stretch of the term but it's showing Wayne is losing some fanfare.

The fact that he feels MTV VMA's and the BET awards are a reliable barometer for quality is a bigger problem for him.
