Why are people obsessed with Lil Wayne?
First of all, it's not because I'm closed minded. I listen to all genre of music and give credit where it's due. I even listen to country, to fusion, classic rock, blues, jazz, hip hop, even those lovey dovy bs people like Bruno Mars even though I got no respect for the man.
So many people keep saying Lil Wayne is either best rapper alive or the best in the history of the game... Are people forgetting Nas, Tupac, Biggie, Rakim, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, NWA, DMX, etc? How can someone who's lyrics be "real G's move in silence like lasagna" or "lick me like a lollipop" be considered a great lyricist? If anything, Nas is the best lyricist, Biggie had best flow, and Tupac had amazing flow and great beats. Just explain to me why you like Lil Wayne because that's something I do not understand... not to mention a lot of the kids listening to him are middle-class spoiled white punk kids who complain about their moms and blast the music in their mother's cars. And these kids also think Rick Ross and Asher Roth are in the top 10 of all times.
