Lil Wayne playing the guitar

T-Pain and Lil Wayne sell records and get spins on the radio. Like it or not, rap that sells big makes people want to dance. No one wants to be in a club dancing to a song about disenfranchisement in the inner city. They want to hear a catchy beat with stupid lyrics pertaining to getting laid.

Hmm... wonder where I said it had to be political or preachy? :crazy:

All I'm saying is that talentwise, even if you kept the materialistic references, catchy beats, and booty shaking stuff in the music, Lil Wayne and T-Pain are probably the least talented in terms of rhyming cadence, freestyle ability, and musical ability. T-Pain couldn't carry a note in a backpack. Lil Wayne couldn't lay down a good verse or punchline to save his life. The only thing that saves these guys is the booty shaker beat. Nothing wrong with booty shaking, but I'm just saying that these no talent hacks hide behind the hooks and beats and disguise how lame they actually are. The sad part is that the general public doesn't listen to lyrics anymore. My girlfriend and I have this debate all the time. I listen to the lyrics in songs and the musicianship. She is with the majority of people and just likes the beats.

Its not just the production of the song. Both of those artists do have unique voices, which is overlooked in rap, granted they have absolutely nothing original to say.

Rasputin, you are being ignorant. You are saying that Lil Wayne doesn't have sick verses? You haven't heard him then. No Rhyming Cadence? No freestyle ability? My goodness, it is apparent you have no clue what you are talking about.:crazy:

You just don't like his style. He doesn't tell stories. Many of the lines that you think suck will sound good to people like me who like his style.

This how much I think about Lil Wayne. I would rank him below Jim Jones and Juelz Santana. And I don't even like Dipset, but at least they have a few funny/witty punchlines and lyrics. Wayne's lyrics are just garbage.

Point in case:

Just bought a new crib, inside so dumb,
Got some money put away, in case the hurricane come,

Exhibit 2: Fireman

Ain't nobody fu**in with me man, Heatman
Ski Mask spending next weeks cash, he fast
And I don't even need a G pass I'm pass that
I'm passing em out now and you can't have that
And my chain Toucan Sam
That tropical colors you can't match that
Gotta be abstract
You catch my gal legs open betta smash that
Don't be surprise if she ask where the cash at
I see she wearing them jeans that show her butt crack
My girls can't wear that why, that's where my stash at
I put my mack down that's where you lack at
She need her candlelit and I'ma wax that
I rekindle the flame
She remember the name
It's Weezy Baby January December the same
Mama gimme that brain
Mama gimme that good
Cause I'm the fireman
You hear the firetruck


LOL!!!

Money on My Mind

Steppin out the mf'in car they in awe
I'm lookin like a star b***h when you see me make a wish
Holla at ya mf'in boy J.R.
Birdman my pa b***h ball bred born rich
Dear Mr. Toilet I'm the s**t
Got these other haters pissed cause my toilet paper thick
I know but trip and that forty make a chip
Out a potato head wimp and like ranch I dip
And the hustle was all muscle just strength
When it comes to that weight I don't struggle I just lift
I got my hand on the game yeah I make a grip
Hundred grand in my fist same on my wrist
Get key money from a quarter blame it on my wrist
I whip coke like hoes n***a I'm a pimp
Lil n***a bout to rape the market
If we talkin bout money baby now we talkin


Say what? :ermm:

You can pull lines out of everyone's songs that sound stupid. I just think the dislike for lil wayne stems from the hip hop fans who like lupe, kwali, common, etc. They tell stories. Wayne doesn't do that. He's completely different, so it is tough to look at him when you are judging based off lupe, etc.

BTW, i like juelz. "I can't feel my face" mixtape with lil wayne is dirty.

Maybe so, but not on the same frequency level as Lil Wayne. He is the world record holder in lyrics that make no sense. I mean, if you aren't telling a story or your lyrics aren't saying anything, then it's like you are getting a group of words together and going hat, cat, mad, glad...

You can do that with anyone's music, but wayne has some good stuff to.
exhibit A:
F*** the World

A young n***a screaming f*** 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 f*** the world man, I'm too young for this

[Hook 2x]
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse man, f*** the world
I lost my father to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin' wit' my niggas 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 be 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 n****s keep falling to them drugs and stuff
That dope got these n****s 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 ****
We don't give a f***

[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, n****, I'm Lil' Rabbit
That's why this lil' n**** 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
F*** the world

The toucan thing is about his chain. It is different colors instead of the same old thing.

He hides his drugs or money in girls butt cracks. What don't you understand?:huh::wacko:

Your top five consists entirely of southern rappers. Branch out. Most of the south is garbage, including your list.

Most of what I listen to is southern rap. It is about being proud of where your from. However that is just my current top 5, my favorite rapper of all time is Tupac, and he is from Cali.
