Eminem.

[btstone]

Em has lost it. he never was a great rapper but he was diff at the time and had a huge fan base. he is good but his time has passed. he couldnt even stay on beat for this song.

drake is hot right now. he is a good rapper and has lil wayne backing him. its not about being gangster, its about saying what ever it is you are tryig to say with clever lyrics. drake is very witty and bring new prospective to the game. So far gone came out like a yr ago blues clues. he has a lot of other good shit out now.

I agree wit this. Feminem is definitely NOT the best in right now. There's some certain idiots that know shit about rap that think this.

I agree/disagree here. Drake IS hot. But he NOT a good rapper. He's just another cookie cutter rapper that sits perfect with Wayne because they are of the same mold. This is just what people are listening to right now. Sad, but true. Later, QD.

you're crazy. i said back in 2004 wayne was gonna blow up. this was when tha carter had just dropped. it tool like 4 yrs but he did. ppl are listening to this becuase ppl like brother ali, kids in the hall, etc are just marginal rappers. yeah they rap about conscious issues, but they arent good. Drake is witty, good with words, and good at changing his flow at times. I do miss the days of the mid 90s rap with tupac, biggie, ugk, etc. but this is the best we have now. jayz and wayne are on top and i do enjoy listening to them rap but other than that. i cant help that most of whats out thier is garbage. but i will say that drake is good.

I'm crazy because I don't think Drake is worth shit? I didn't call you crazy because you think he is. And it doesn't make you seem any more knowledgeable in rap because you "called it" that Wayne was going to blow up. Mainly because you were among millions of other people who said the same thing. Lil Wayne had actually been pretty hot 4-6 years before you "called it."

Not trying to be an asshole with that comment, dude, so hopefully we can actually have a civil conversation about something.

As far as the rest of your comment, yes that is all we have right now. Which is why I would thank God if I knew He was really there for Limewire so that I can download all the good shit that is out there still. Later, QD.

wrong

many were saying wayne was falling off and his lyrics were garbage and his career was done. he was on the verge of becoming another statistic.

I 'm quite sure I'm not wrong on this, but I know this will lead to another famous argument so I'll leave it be. Later, QD.

i knew this before hand, but if you need proof. just go watch that VH1 special "inside the music" they did one for lil wayne. it said in there too. i think it also said something like he was gonna quit rapping i think....i think

I know he has other new shit. I just haven't gotten it all yet lol.

But I agree about EM. And also, has anyone else noticed that Drake sounds a lot like Wayne. They sound so much alike that on one of the songs I have that they did together, I couldn't tell who was who lol. I'm guessing Wayne must be Drakes inspiration. His style is a lot like his, but a little better at the same time. I get lost in his words

i dont know about better. its less edgy and less more refined. but wayne has SO much talent its crazy. when wayne really wants to lay a good verse down, he can have just sitting there in aww of his lyrics

I think he's talentless, myself. Of course I'm from the old school where lyrics mean a lot to a track, ya know. Folks today don't really care about whether or not lyrics make any sense as long as it rhymes or something. Props to him for making his work, though. Later, QD.

[THEONE]

i would like to say i hate this guys act, i thought some of his stuff was ok years back, but its all horse shit to sell records,hes just another sell out no heart puttin into his music horses ass and his time is over,and that is 100% clear in his new album......

his lyrics are good. just because he isnt sending out a message you like doesnt mean his lyrics are bad. he isnt a story teller like common or slick rick, but the boy can flatout rhyme. ppl forget lyrics are not about what you say. its how you say what you are trying to get at. wayne is super witty, good word play, creative, knows how to work the beat. super talented to say the least. any one who thinks wayned is talentless need to say the same about jayz because they are about the same as far as lyrics and style and music go.


edit. lyrics were horrible back in the early 90s. they were getting good when biggies blew up in the mid 90s. but still, rhyme sceems and lyrics were just so simple in early rap. now i will agree that in early 2000s was when lyrics peeked. there were a lot of rappers doing really well. now its only a few. old school rap is simple rap. i like old school rap, but i do know the difference

I can't stand Jay-Z either. Never have liked his stuff. But he's much more talented that Wayne. And lyrics are EXACTLY about what you say. I'm not sure why you think that it's not. And I don't consider mumbling a "super talent." But again, it's all about opinion.

Wayne talks about damn near the same thing now as he did back in his CMM days. It's just that he's gotten progressively harder to understand.

Forgive me for this, but you're a white dude, right? Later, QD.

that went over your head i see. its not about the message, its how well you speak about what ever it is you choose to rap about. wayne raps about money, hoes, killing, etc and he does it very well. way better than he used to in the old CMR days. you listen to this garbage he puts on the radio and make the assumption that he muimbles on everything...good for you.

yeah, me being white has nothing to do with my open understanding of hip hop. yeah i like wayne. so do a lot of black ppl and other white ppl and asian ppl, and who ever else. i also like nas, jayz, old ugk, rakim, eric b, and the rest of the spectrum of rap. who cares what color anyone is
