Lil Wayne Struggling Out Here

[GoldTeef]

unless you counting singles now

the number is actually a lot lower, I dont think that's certified units, that 45 mill is probably closer to 20 million

 

[FappleMeOff]

Plus I thinks it's obvious he had someone writing for him during the carter 2 era (gillie)

False

drake isnt even on this list yet

Wayne has had more tours than drake

-the Drake brand is more socially acceptable, that's why he can host the ESPY's
of course he is, drake is more of a popstar than a rapper

nope. Drake took what Wayne did and took it to new heights... Wayne is in the 50 Cent, Ja Rule, Nelly tier... had a nice little run, sold some albums etc.... Drake is in the Eminem tier

Besides them 2 also being amongst the very elite of rappers longevity wise...So does Wayne (do bigger shows than this random one in the op)...he just packed an arena at the crib (stl) barley 2 months agobi took my lil nephew and his homies...at least like 10k...this thread ain't really bout arguing the nuances of reality tho...like the fact that it's well known hes obviously in label limbo that's had his career on ice going on 2 years now

"He" huh? So it was a solo show?

I was gonna ask about how much Wayne is eating from drake. He doesn't seem to push drake like he is eating crazy off it. Then again neither does Birdman really. Maybe they just feel they don't need to

It seems like Drake has a more solid deal than Wayne. I'm thinking because he was on Degrassi he already had a jump start on signing contracts and that type of thing so he had a little better advantage. Just an assumption.

it's just your average delusional drake stan

 

[FappleMeOff]

in terms of popularity, he is.

Bullshyt. Where's your proof

 

[CrimsonTider]

is it cuz he doesnt have a core hardcore following? i.e. like Nas who hasnt had a hit or album in years, but still can do nationwide tours and sell out, or headline big festivals like Coachella, Lollapooloza etc

This isn't true and anyone can headline festivals. Nas is performing in the same venues as wayne
