Wayne definitely has a spot in history, but it's a different matter talking of him as one of the greatest.

Are people talking about just the amount of influence or whether it's a good influence?

If it's just on amount then have to add Eminem and 50 Cent to the liist too.

Then styles people like Bone Thugz, Wu as a collective. The Lox. If it's just sales you even have to look groups and people like Blondie, Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer etc. So it's about the criteria.

If he add some damn subject matter to his work he'll be super good.

If he added subject matter more often he would significantly help his legacy. A lot of the shyt he talks about will get boring, a lot of the punchlines will be tired or people will grow up and be on the next trend.

He will be considered a flash in the pan by a lot of people. But he has a place maybe in a top 100.

Lil wayne has dropped platinum albums in literally three different fukking decades.
6 albums have sold over a million copies. Another 5 have sold over 500k.

Don't care about sales. It's about quality of music.

Quality of music is subjective.

You've been going on about how hot all these shytty Animal Ambition tracks are, so what value does your opinion hold on quality of music?

I have no idea what your talking about. Show me the quote I said. And it isn't just me who doesn't rate Wayne as top 20 of all time, it's nearly everyone on here.
