Inverse relationship between his talent and his popularity, like a lot (most) rappers. Once you "make it" you start putting out trash since it doesn't matter anymore. When you still hungry and need to eat, you are putting out your best work.
Carter 1&2
Dedication series
Drought series
couple tracks off Drought 6
If that ain't nice, you lying to yourself
50 still is slacking for someone who made the classic though. He too fell off after that.
Curtis was a fail and Massacre was a let down
None of those are nice.
I've been listening to hip hop for a long time. When I listen to music, I actually care about lyrics, not like the average wayne fan (young teen or female)that just wants to hear a catchy beat or a nice hook. I look for music that is entertaining and takes talent to produce.
That is not lil wayne. His rhymes are basic and boring, his flow is wack, his subject matter is predictable and dull, I don't even find any of his songscatchy. I guess that's expected when you go from listening to all the golden era classics to a guy just out to make money.
That's not really the problem though. People like soulja boy for example are horrible, but they know their role. They are just out to make quick money offkids who don't know any better then fade off. This is the problem with wayne. He actually goes so far as to say "Best Rapper Alive". The sad partis all the hip hop noobies then buy into this, and you get people arguing with you that wayne is GOAT or top 3 or top 5, whatever.
It's tolerable, unlike the newer stuff he's put out. I wouldn't say I like it though. It was nothing special. 6-7/10 IMOOriginally Posted by N3FF 3000
You didn't like C1 MidEast?
The way I think about it is why should I listen to C1 when I got Illmatic, The Infamous, 36 Chambers etc etc etc and all of those are timeless 10/10 albums.
