I have but one response regarding this rapper as well as the rest of today's mindless music for the masses rappers. Remember the "true" legends of hip hop and rap like Public Enemy, Paris, KRS-One, MC Eiht, CMW, EPMD, Run Dmc, Beastie Boys, Erik B and Rakim, Tribe called qwest, House of pain, The DOC, NWA, Eazy E, and ICE Cube. I could go on with the likes of Black Moon, Hammer, Das Efx. Today's rap is complete and utter garbage! End of story!

My three favorite rappers, as of right now, are Lupe Fiasco, Chamillionaire, and Tech N9ne, all much better than Lil Wayne. Just throwing that out there. Lil Wayne has changed so much since he started out. Back in the day he at the very least had some potential, but after Tha Carter 2 this guy blew any chance he had at becoming a good artist. He started just rapping about anything and everything and not in a good way either. His lyrics are usually pretty simple or at times just don't even make sense, then at other times he goes off topic with his lyrics and then the song as a whole just doesn't work. On Tha Carter 3 there were maybe 4 songs I thought were pretty could but the rest of the album was just terrible. I hope the masses of people who listen to hip hop will one day see that artists like Wayne, Soulja Boy, Plies, Gucci Mane, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross, Flo-Rida, and so on are all just really bad artists.

heres an old lil wayne song yall wont know of or care about called beep the world
A young beep screaming beep the world and let 'em die
Behind tints, tryna' duck the world and smoking rie
Got my bandanna 'round my head and pants to my feet
And got my eyes fire red and glock on my seat
I'm tryna' stay under intoxication
'Cause I lost my father, and got a daughter, plus I'm on probation
I'm drinking liquor like it's water, getting pissy drunk
And staying away from them lil' broads that trying to give me some
I keep a chopper in the trunk and my heat on my wasteline
Ducking the law, 'cause I ain't tryna' do no FED time
Sometimes I just wish I could be away
But I gotta take care of Reginae and keep macita straight
So I just maintain the struggle and I keep trying
But how can I when my closest people keep dyin'
I ain't lying that the law tryna' bust my clique
But I scream beep the world man, I'm too young for this
[Hook 2x]
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse man, beep the world
I lost my father to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin' wit' my beep tryna' keep it real
And I'm still doing for my mother and I'm payin' bills
Give me a cigarette, my nerves bad
The FEDs said they heard that I know where them birds at
And my old lady say she saw me with anotha Brizzah
And some a the boys shot up my block so now I gotta kill 'em
And teachers keep tellin' my momma that I'm gettin' worse
And now she tripping talking 'bout I need to b238e in church
And my lil' girl whole family tryna' lie in court
Tryna' put me, a child, on child support
And my own family deny me of what I do 'cause I'm a 'thug and stuff'
Plus, my beep keep falling to them drugs and stuff
That dope got these beep melting away
Man they got clowns right around me, killing they self everyday
We keep fighting but they so strong
I know it's hard but don't give up baby hold on
Just keep ya fate, count blessings, and wodie keep ya trust
And grab ya nuts and let 'em know that we don't give a 111cbeep
We don't give a beep
[Hook]
I mean the world just ain't gon' never change
So I just keep my head up and my nuts, let 'em hang
Dawg I swear it's very rough out here for the youngstas
Like everybody against me 'cause I'm a young thug
Dear Rabbit, why they have to kill Rabbit?
But I'ma keep you alive, beep I'm Lil' Rabbit
That's why this lil' beep be bugging like it's no tomorrow
I only can depend on macita and C-M-R
I try my best to make it through the night and live today
But I'm upset so I'm steady wipin' tears away
And police got me under surveillance when and wherever
Wrecking they brains, tryna' figure where I'm getting that cheddar
I tell my family just leave me a-damn-lone
I can handle all a my business, this lil' man grown
But I try to forget about it and just stand strong
But if everything was cool I wouldn't write this damn song

First I would like to saygood post Jaithat song is beep illin.
This is why wayne is popular and grammy award winning:- He was hungry. Very very hungry.
- Came in at a time when hip hop was kinda in a slump Carter II time completely changed the sound of hip hopevolving it into something newMore POP I would say. That's where the grammy's came from.. he was the NEW HOT thingblowing up on every single person's ipod at parties etc.
The kid made his millions when he was 16 years oldhe's been doing it longer and harder than most rappers out there.
SureNas, Biggie, jayz, immort techq, mos def these are more talented rappersbut Wayne is infusing genresit's gonna get you the spotlight.
Esp now with the Young Money cliqueHe is dominating.
Who knows what the future holds for hip hop? O.o

its the generation man..i personally don't like him because he seems like another rapper out there to make his money, not redefining anything in the rap game. he doesn't set a standard or anything. and the people who put them in their top 10..idk how to explain it. teenagers like fads and what's hot now, so therefore lil wayne is the next big hot thing. cant blame the industry for cashing in on wayne and wayne cashing in on the public. he is unique, he isnt't the greatest. thats like saying Kanye is the voice of this generation

None of those rappers are better than Lil Wayne
Chamillionaire and Tech Nine? Not even close. -

They're more than close. At least I can hear something different with each of there songs and not the same nonsense over and over. And why would you post this twice? You already posted it elsewhere in the thread.
