Im sick of everyone thinking so highly of Lil Wayne!!

First off he's really not that good. He has no emotion in his raps and hes very monotone. Second off half his material is stolen! I understand some people use others lines / flows here and there to 'pay respect' but you dont pay respect when you take them but say your the best. Recently, in his song with Drake/ Miss Me, he used the line "Im not that thuggish not that ruggish but I do pack bone". Thats obviously a reference / shoutout to Thuggish Ruggish Bone, but Mystikal used that line back in 94/95 in his song Yall aint ready!

Drake/Lil Wayne - Miss Me @ 3:35

Mystikal- Yall aint ready @ 3:40

This is unfortunatly just one example out of the dozens and dozens of times lil wayne has done things like this. Its really a shame and I wonder what the rappers he takes from think of it.

Rap sucks in general.

I fully agree with you. Fortunately not "everyone" thinks so highly of him.

1. I think you mean everyone

2. The general consensus on this forum is that rap, in general, is terrible.

Yeah, a lot of people say that rap sucks on this forum, and then turn around and listen to some of the most awful metal music imaginable.

I'm convinced that so many people like him because they heard someone else say how good he is and jumped on the bandwagon. I like rap, I just can't stand him. He's a biter, he's not original, and sometime he just says absurd things(I am bent like a Dent) that sound so stupid yet people think it's good. He's not clever. It'd be cool if he overdosed.-Halftime-

Yeah, Lil Wayne is pretty awful. He has a sloppy mess of a flow, his "clever" lyrics are actually inane, his voice is grating, he raps on top of generally bad music.

Have you read his attempt at rock (Prom Queen)? It was laughable, one of the worst songs of all time.

I enjoy Wayne. I'm not really suprised that he has some previously used lines, considering he's put out over a thousand songs in the last few years.

When he's on his **** he's killer. He does miss every now and then.

I don't really care if you agree. Opinions are opinions.

I can't stand him... Drake is taking attention away from him for the time being though, thankfully.

Drake is more bearable, but I hate how hes almost trying to sound like lil wayne. Also, this whole verse was rediculous

Can't sing, play an instrument, or dance, but still want to call yourself a "musician"? Try rap!UT_Wrestler

You do realize that some rappers are musicians, right?

Hopping on Wayne's nuts is so 2008. I don't think he's as overrated as he once was.

Drake on the other hand needs to go away.

I'm pretty sure he's universally hated here for the most part

People have different tastes and opinions, you know?

I personally don't know why Paramore exists, but hey.

That's just me.

I don't like Lil Wayne at all, when everyone was wearing "Free Weezy" shirts, I wish I had one that said "You Can Keep Him."
