I don't mean to go on but seriously now, why do kids recognize as Lil Wayne as a good rapper today? I even hear people saying Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive! I've argued with friends a zillion times about how bad he is as a rapper, but I still can't convince them! Infact i've even had replies such as 'go listen to his lyrics' are they actually serious? they even repeat a couple of his lines, and said 'how can you say these lyrics suck?' lol. they think it's actually good lyrics!... I've even played some guys like Big L, Gangstarr, KRS One, and they even claimed it sucked!!
In my opinion Lil Wayne is more on the pop side than anything else, he isn't really a rapper, just a phony. This also applies to the likes of Gucci, Soulja boy, Pitbull, can these guys even be classed as rappers? I think it's an insult to class any of these guys rappers! It seems the level of intelligence has dropped in hiphop today, youngsters don't seem to actually get real hiphop either.. is there any such thing as 'hiphop' in today's commercialized music?
