he made a career out of being corny. Imagine chingy saying stuff like:

"Big house / long hallways / got 10 bathrooms, I can shyt all day"
"New Orleans coroner, his name is Frank Minyard / fukk with me wrong, you’ll be waking up in his yard"
"Real G’s move in silence like Lasagna
(WHEN A BUNCH OF PPL DIDNT KNOW LASAGNA HAD A G IN IT)"
"************, I'm ill, not sick / And I'm okay, but my watch sick" :trash:

f wayne wasn't who he was, those lines would've been laughed off the radio. he has A LOT of lazy crap like this, but because he hypnotized ppl into believing he was the best rapper alive (when jay z fake retired) ppl ran with this nonsense. Sure he has great songs, but stuff like this is corny.

If he dropped shooter right now, it would be a double platinum single.

He on the same shyt all the other rappers on, but he don't need all the hardest beats/production behind him to back up the vocals. Main reason wayne was hot in the first place is because up until recently, nikkas was still checking for lyrics.

Everybody had quotables from everything that nikka dropped til around sorry for the wait 2, around the same time all the hits and radio play was just repetitive recyclable easily digestible music.

The thing that made bro stand out was that he could recycle his own content and concepts, but with the vocabulary and flow to create different energies each time. And do it to yo favorite rappers beats, content, and concepts too. That's what Wayne's world is. In my opinion his best music was made when he was having fun with it.

If lil uzi dropped whip it by lil Wayne, top 5
If nba YoungBoy dropped steady mobbing ft yo Gotti, top 5
If lil baby dropped lollipop, top 5
If Migos dropped Roger that or every girl, top 5
If Drake dropped Lisa Marie, #1 billboard single and everybody gone be making remixes for the next 9 months
If Kevin gates dropped playing with fire...

Honestly i feel like Wayne should be exempt from having to clear samples just so he can show nikkas how it's sposed to be done one last run before he gracefully bows out.

Best rapper alive.

Wayne's career is confusing. His worst music is much more known and highly regarded than his legit great music...

Carter 1 >>>>>> anything after

That's what happens when you don't use much soul sample in ya beats, ages like dog sh*t. Used too much of the production of its time and that production was garbage to begin with. "I feel like dying", "misunderstood" aged nicely tho
