Lil Wayne - Worst Rapper Of All Time!
76
Ok Ok, I went Far With That Title But...
I had to make a hub for this year's most anticipated hip hop album. If like me you've been keeping even just half your ear open, you've heard Lil Wayne's guest apearing everywhere... not to mention that "lollipop" song that's been playin in over-rotation on radio stations (i can't even get that tune out of my head now). Now, obviously this album IS NOT THE WORSE OF ALL TIME. It's true the boy has talent. But many of us doubt his ability to make a good album. Is Tha Carter III gonna shut us all up? Well... quick answer: Nope!
Listen to it for yourself and make your own judgment if you haven't already. Download it here... come back and let me know what you think.
What's missing on this album:
"Although, this album is Lil Wayne’s best work to date, the main thing missing from this album is the fun. Since The Block is Hot to Wayne’s recent guest appearances Lil Wayne proved he could have the most fun on tracks, with Tha Carter 3, Wayne trades fun for serious. Unfortunately, this is the major draw back of this album, as Wayne tries to hard to force himself into the Holy Trinity of Hip Hop (Jay-Z/Nas, Biggie, and Tupac) by making sub-par serious tracks." From YoRapper on YoRapper.com
"While Tha Carter III boasts a few left-of-center song ideas, far too often does Wayne veer into the generic and uninspired. “Got Money” not only features lame song-writing and a grating T-Pain hook, but the front-and-center synths sound almost identical to those on Lil Jon’s “Snap Yo Fingers.” On the following track, “A Milli”,” the dreadfully repetitive beat drowns out Wayne’s raps for the most part, and with gems like “we pop ‘em like Orville Redenbacher,” producer Bangledesh was probably on the right track (pun intended). Even the super-catchy lead single “Lollipop” stands tall compared to the laughably-bad “La La,” a track marred by an awkward beat and corny one-liners- like Wayne says, it’s “wittier than comedy.” From Samir Siddiqui on RealTalkNY.Rawkus.com
Lollipop Remix ft T-Pain & Kanye
BEST REVIEW (funny):
Here's what Byron Crowford says about the songs (lol):
3 PEAT: When Wayne does his ‘straining’ style all I can think is that constipation must be a side effect of all that sizzurp sippin’.
MR CARTER: I do wish Weezy wouldn’t talk about being hard so much. It gives me a bad mental image. (nullus).
A MILLI: “I have a venereal disease” explains the Lil’ one. And that’s probably not all, by now
GOT MONEY : Pre-nullus: “I ain’t never been a chicken but my semi cock”. I mean honestly. Perhaps chicks will like that.
COMFORTABLE: If you’re not already a fan then none of this is going to convert you. This sounds like a John Legend record featuring Lil’ Wayne or something.
PHONE HOME: Lil’ Wayne: So, I’ve got this great concept for a record.
Birdman: Really?
Lil’ Wayne: Yeah, it’s like E.T., except E.T. is me.
Birdman: That really is a good idea. Come and give daddy a kiss.
DR CARTER: It’s 2008 and Swizz Beatz is sampling David Axelrod while DJ Shadow is making hyphy. Like Marvin said, “What’s Going On?”
TIE MY HANDS: Wayne wishes to be tied up and abused.
SHOOT ME DOWN: This beat sounds like Eminem trying to write a beat whilst suffering from pain-killer withdrawal. Is this a Coldplay sample or something? Some awful wailing on the chorus.
PLAYIN’ WITH FIRE: A shitty re-played version of Ruth Copeland’s “Playing With Fire”, but with enough notes and lyrics changed that they probably won’t have to play publishing.
LOLLIPOP: Cheesy as fuck but I guess it does pretty much sum up Wayne, and mainstream hip-hop, in 2008, for what it’s worth.
LA LA: Utterly retarded.
NOTHIN’ ON ME: Slightly more listenable raps then average for this album, due to Fabolous and Juelz Santana. Note: slightly.
LET THE BEAT BUILD: People have complained that Kanye isn’t contributing to the next Common album, but if this is what he had planned him then I guess we should all be grateful.
MRS OFFICER: A ‘woman’ cop pulls Wayne over. Before you know it they’re having sex, ala Wayne’s condom advert. Just another day in the crazy life of Weezy!
MISUNDERSTOOD: No rap song ever has the right to be almost 10 minutes long. Especially one this mediocre and uninspired.
FINAL COMMENT: Almost exactly as I expected it to sound. Will probably sell a few hundred thousand copies to teenage girls who don’t know any better.
And Then There's This Disturbing Picture... No Comment!

Ha! Ha! Good comedy! Please write me another paragraph so I can laugh!... at you!
Now, I don't know which holes you where using to listen (cause it definitely wasn't your ears) when your teacher thaught you how to read. You obviously still have some trouble in that area...
If you try your best, you might actually realise that the reviews above are from various places on the net (and not from me)... from people who definitely have been around long enough (unlike some) to know what a really good hip-hop album sounds like...
My personnal comment about lil wayne's album isn't even bad (u'll find out once u pass ur reading exam in kindergarden... but I doubt it)
Freemusic
PS: About you writing me another paragraph, you don't really have to bother... this one's good enough to keep me laughing (at you) to tears for a while...
thank you...i thought i was out all alone in this world. listen to me. im talking to everyone who is a fan of hip-hop. real music. the carter 3 was fucking garbage. i mean like the type of shit you dont wanna throw out. the kind that can stink up an entire house. wayne is quite possibly the worst lyrically of all time. i mean that. his concepts are horrible. no content whatsoever. is this what hip-hop has come to. i thought rap was a form of expression. you showed your skills. you proved that you could compete. it was like a sport. now with lil wayne leading it we are going to end up a bunch of lost souls. Nas album is so good. will anyone bother to listen....no because wayne has brainwashed our young kids into believing he is the choosen rapper. cut the fucking bullshit. this dude spits some of the worst lines i have ever heard. if any rapper would say these lines "this is the carter/lil shop of horrors/bloody like a period/after DRrrrrra." I think this most be a long long long ass epesidoe of punked. how is this bum the greatest alive. how??????? he put out 6LP. one of them was good. ONE!!!!! krs 1, jay-z, nas, big L, biggie, tupac, big daddy kane, emenim, snoop, ll cool j, busta ryhmes. these are the rappers that shoud go down in history not a fag like wayne.
Ok, Lil Wayne is not the greatest rapper alive... but I wouldn't go as far you do. He definitely has his own style, his own way of spittin a verse and his lyrics are somehow creative...though they get too creative sometimes they loose all sense (or do I need to sip on syrup to understand...)
Bottom line: He hasn't discovered the full extent of his potential and he can be better... but he makes enough money so he probably doesn't care anyways, why should we?
SWIZZ BEATZ DID SOMETHING RIGHT! HE USED THE MASTER...DAVID AXELRODON DR. CARTER. SAMPLED THE ENTIRE SONG OF "HOLY THURSDAY"!
WTF is all i can say, i cant stop listening to his shit, and i KNOW i have good taste in music fuckers.
byron crowford - you are officially the most stupid person alive
also refrain from using the word retarded in the future, amazingly enough it is offensive, although even 'retards' are smarter than you
lil wayne iz da best rapper alive bithches
lil wayne is a piece of shit....BITCH!!!!
way to keep it real about the absolute lamest rapper ever
Yes! Yes! Yes!....He is the worst! Never liked him. Sounds and looks like a little rat. Unfortunately people are buying his sucky albums.
Yes, you are right, Lil wayne is officially the worst rapper alive. I'll have to admit that i dont agree with you that The Carter 3 is Waynes best work because it isnt.. he has only gotten worse as a rapper over the years.. just listen to his earlier works and listen to the carter 3 and you will hear it. He always sounds drugged up nowadays and it seems like he cant pronounce words at all, and I dont know whats wrong with people in this world, but his rapping style sounds like shit. And the beats he uses arent anything spectacular either... sorry just my opinion.
wow... to all u weezy dick ryders, he totally fucking blows... this just shows how unintelligent and stupid ppl are in the rap world today. and the only reason some of his earlier shit was good is because gillie da kid wrote most of his shit. his rhymes blos, his delivery sucks. He sounds like a cat in heat with his gay little grunts and moans all within his songs
HATAZ!!...ERRBODY KNO LIL WAYNE IZ DA BEST RAPPER ALIVE BiTCH!!

no tiny, rap aint dead, listen to Nas, Lupe Fiasco, Immortal Technique or Talib Kweli and you'll see that good lyricists still exist.
the point is anyone who says Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive clearly has a strange sense of taste in music, i mean "i'm a venereal disease, like a menstrual i bleed" or "i feel like im racing a bunch of little turtles" are included in some of his lines, so yes, yes he is by that far the worst rapper of all time...worse than 50 cent or P. Diddy...
and yes ariel, he will make "mula" but i'll leave you with this line from immortal technique (one of the best rappers there is) to explain why he does make such money
"so if your message ain't sh*t, f*ck the records you sold 'cause if you go platinum, it's got nothing to do with luck it just means that a million people are stupid as f*ck"
I am sorry but his music and his voice is GARBAGE. I don't understand his nasty voice. He whines like a btch. He kills every song he made. WORST SINGER
you guys are dumb ass fuck.YOU CANT BE THE GRETEST RAPPER ALIVE!!!!you hae to beat every MC ina rap battle to do dat.was lil wayne ina rap batlle??MMMMMMMMMM NO not that i remeber.He dosent wright his own stuff he has GHOST WRITERS,and he jacks alot of plp rymes.[GO TO YOUTUBE.COM and look up LIL WAYNE SWAGGA JACKER]its really dam sad how idiot young teens now a days listen to this boring shit and say its good.im a 90's and 80's baby.thats all i listen too.LIL WAYNE IS HORRIBLE PLP!!!GET IT IN YOUR THICK HEADS!
Awww i was hoping DJ the prez was gonna write another paragraph. Maybe you shouldn't have used the word paragraph, its three whole syllables and i dont think he could handle it.
Whoever is in love with ll wayne are so fucken stupid!..... obviously u don't listen to his lyrics.... he's NOT EVEN CLOSE to beeing the best rapper alive and dont give me that he "Has his Own Style" BULL SHIT, right.... thats y he does that played out tpain robot voice now? U GOTTA BE KIDDING ME HIS OWN STYLE?!?... if u love Lil Wayne ur probly a white girl in her teens.... Lil Waynes content is GARBAGE!.... listen to some real artist or might as well go kiss another guy/ go shove a lolipop down ur throat.... THE Best 2Pac, BIG, Nas, Ice Cube, Tech N9ne, Snoop, Game, Cypress Hill, NWA, Bone Thugz from the top of my head.... Lil wayne IS NOT close to that level, u can't compare Lil Wyne to any of them, ur a COMPLETE idiot if u even THINK about it, he'll never be included in that group no matter how mainstream he is... EVER! no mention that he's a FAKE, he probly has tear drops tattood on his ass.... I admit Lil Wayne WAS, WAS!, a pretty ok rapper earlier in his career,... wen he carried blue flags .... but NOW? I laugh wen i see or hear him .... really, Hip Hop on the radio is Complete Garbage and i blame faggs like wayne, soulja bitch, TPain ect .... its kinda sadd how some people ARE basicly brainwashed by the radio.... If ur one of these people i recommend turning OFF the radio and listen to some OLD SCHOOL SHIT!!! jus so u kno what REAL MUSIC sounds like... GET A TASTE OF REAL MUSIC... watch i expect the white girls to respond... UR A JOKE!
Best. Rapper. Alive. NOT AT ALL.
I suppose that even though he has up to 4 additional writers on every song he's a lyrical genius. Or maybe it's his productio-oh wait he doesnt produce anything. Lil' Wayne is like a newscaster he doesnt make the show or write the news but at the end of the day we'll remember him instead of the report. It all sounds the same. Aesop Rock, Company Flow, El-P, Son of Nun, Deltron 3030, Immortal Technique are the people you should check out.
P.S. how many lyrics did he steal from other rappers?
Lil wayne should not even be considered hip hop its some of the most rediculous shit ive ever heard. All it is is mindless rap just like soulja boy t pain and all this shit that i cant even tell the difference between anymore.If you wanna here some true hip hop listen to some MF Doom, Mos Def, Common, Quasimoto, Madlib, Del The Funky Homosapien and there are tons more out there that dont get the recognition they deserve for some of the thought provoking music they make. Unless you just wanna be a follower just cause everyones listenin to this shit with no substance.
Atmosphere, Aesop Rock are also good forgot to throw them in there
Don't listen to this dick's. They obviously are just nut huggers. Lil Wayne is crap. @dj the prez. Lol you obviously have to be either utterly stupid or just plain retarded, that is not music, that's just a dumbass making up corny ass rhymes.
Word, Lil wayne is retarded. My 3 yr old cousin would shit on him lyrically. Everything that comes out his mouth is garbage juice.. He is hands down the wackest rapper alive. Anyone who disagrees obviously doesn't know hip hop.
Eminem would smash this clown hands down. Eminem is a true genious and is passionate about what he does. Thats why he will eventually go down as the best rapper ever!
I rap, I do conscious Hip Hop, written, or I do Gangster Rap Freestyle...I know the extent of credible intellectual lyrical ability to amount to rhyme schemes so rhythmic, unique, and complex that it far exceeds most people's comprehension and even mine at times, I'll admit sometimes I have to rewind to catch what was said...I also know ghetto gangster shit cuz I grew up in it and know what people really do and would admit on tape doing for a rap...
I'm going to say this once, if you like little wang, I'm not trying to tell you you're wrong, in fact, keep with it, your preference is not debatable or a strike at your persona...
In terms of overall rhyming ability, smooth delivery, lyrical complexity and or uniqueness, and relevance to one's own REAL accounts of life...lil' payne ranks...no bias here, I've analyzed his lyrics...little wang ranks in, honestly, the worst case examples I've ever encountered in my entire 10-12 years of rapping...I honestly can't think of anyone weaker than he is...sorry, Vanilla Ice far exceeds his rhyming abilities...
REASONS:
*AUTO TUNE...he's a singer who can't use his own voice...he's not a vocalist, he's a script reader...therefore anyone can replace his role...just read the script and let the Auto Tune...you know, do the rest.
*He's his own number one fan...he knows he's the best, but doesn't give any reason as to why we should agree other than because he says he is...if he said eating your own shit was the best, would you get to shit licking cuz he said so? So is he the best or do you just follow his command? If you think he's the best, please share, I haven't found any reason why he could be even decent.
*"Back that ass up like BERP BERB
Make me want to jump up like JERP JERP"
Something like that...in the lollipop song, where he admits he has girl's hair, or a girl he likes has guy's hair...either way, BERP BERP...JERP JERP...what sound does a jump make? JERP? When nursery rhymes are above your level, you either need to up your game or keep practicing...his whole verse is 12 lines long each line rhymes "Mine" with "Mine" until his JERP BERP reference...mind you if you don't agree, but that is retarded...I don't care how much you like his penis, "Mine" doesn't count as rhyming with "Mine" and BERP and JERP, although they rhyme, aren't even English, or creative enough to defy English...they are utterly retarded...honestly, if I had written that elementary BS in a song about Lollipops...I'd call myself gay and whack and would be too embarrassed to actually produce that...the last song about Lollipops was the "Lollipop Lollipop, Lolly Lollypop, lollipop...buh bom bum bom" Lame, Lil' Lame there buddy, try asking a kindergartner to revise your raps, mine can rhyme with time, blind, sign, fine, alkaline, outta line, serpentine, design, whine...lil' whine
*I don't know if his fans like it, but I'm tired of hearing him moan over Auto Tune...get noises guy, how but some raps...BERP JERP...
*Lastly, I've never met a fan of his who can tell me an example of how he's "tight" not just "cuz he's different" or "I don't know he's just tight"
1. Differnet doesn't mean better...if you live in jail tomorrow, that is a different lifestyle...is it better? Invalid reason.
2. If you don't know why something is enjoyable, there may be a reason lacking there...why is your favorite place to eat, your favorite place to eat? See, the reasons come easy...Why is lil wang tight? You don't know? Hmm...maybe you should decide what you like before you start liking it...
*Last reason, he is product of the commercially fucked over music industry...MTV, BET, the Radio, the Clubs...people all play the same music...why, not because he's the only worthwhile rapper...NO...NO that's not why...
It's called a controlled market...you don't want people to think for what they like, you need to tell them what they like and that being what you sell...that way oppinion doesn't cut into your profit...
The MAINSTREAM MEDIA:
1.) Tells you what to like
2.) Sells you what to like
3.) Then breaks down the old "star" to get you ready for the next, corporate mass produced retarded pop star...
Example: I thought all you guys said Britney Spears is the finest bitch ever and you'd sit and watch her music videos with your little sisters because she's so fine...and now she's "crazy" and "fat" so you hate her...it's only been like 4 years, it takes more time than that for someone in the 20's to become ugly, especially if they were the finest bitch ever...hmm...and why do you all agree, she's fat and crazy...wow you guys must all think alike, what's your favorite Ice Cream? Hey, how come there's variety? I thought you guys all think the same...
THey tell you what to like...
They Sell you what to like...
Then they break down the old trends to cause indifference to them and a perfect opportunity to release another pop prodigy because you're so vulnerable because your favorite star that you don't know why you like is now publicly lame and you feel cheated...same reason why Obama is our savior, but hasn't done shit...and yet won a nobel prize...they tell you what to like...
Make your own decisions...know why you feel the way you do about things...because you can do it for almost everything else...and decide for yourself what you like...not because they told you to like them for they are the best, you are the only one to judge what is the best in your opinion, remember that and maybe in the future we wont have the burst of 5 member questionably gay boy bands who come up and disappear all at the same time, with the same styles and all that...if you don't realize that the corporate music BS is pre manufactured indutry who sucks at making music, but sure can make money...then you're too unaware for me to even go on...
Please, if you find an example of how Lil Jane has ever been talented please send them to me
gsxbuickgnx@gmail.com
I don't expect to hear from anyone...BERP BERP...JERP JERP...
overrated but talented. take out the $$$ songs that get radio play and this album would be more respected.
I really cant see why people listen to this. lil wayne is a joke listen to a wayne then listen to a song called southside groovin that one song will kill anything wayne put out. also notices that most of waynes listners watch th oc. most of his fans really just ride his dick anyway. if you love wayne and think you know music then ask yourself will you listen to his shit in ten years.
Verbal Iv you seem to understand perfectly what I am thinking too.One thing you forgot to mention he started taking drugs at 11.When your under the influence you imagine stuff and people who consume will believe the same thing he does.The hole sizzurp made things even worst.Seriously I used to be a fan of Lil' Wayne before tha Carter 2 were he actually made sense but like a lot of artist he sold out to mainstream.
The guy is a cartoon character. He gives black people a bad name. The sad thing how many kids are going to grow up idolizing him and think life is all about money girls and material crap. Rap is dead and lost its meaning of struggle and hardship. Honestly the guy isn't a nigger but a product of mainstream.
DONT HATE ON WEEZY!!!!!!! TO ALL U PPL SAYIN HE CAN SING OR RAP OR ANY OTHER SHIT, GET THIS THROUGH YOU BIG ASS HEAD WHETHER U EVER LIKED WAYNE OR NOT HE STILL MAKES MORE MONEY THAT U MOTHERFUCKERS WILL EVER MAKE. IF WEEZY IS SO BAD WHY IS HE SO SUCCESSFUL? IM SURE ALL U WANT TO IS TO SEE HIM FAIL BUT APPARENTLY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THINK OTHERWISE. IF HE WAS AS BAD AS U HATERZ SAY HE WOULDNT BE ANYWHERE NEAR WHERE HE AT NOW SO SHUT THE FUCK UP
WEEZY 4EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For a start little boy, using caps makes you sound like a small, insignificant piece of shit, and not the latter as you so clearly intended.
Secondly, Wayne is only making the money he is apparently making because people like you at the big entertainment corporations seem to want to push him through to mainstream entertainment sources (either they were bribed or some other bullshitted way). Wayne sucks. He can't construct proper lyrics and his voice sounds like a rat, getting raped and strangled in a sewer. In other words, he sounds shit, he is lyrically shit, and he is one fucking ugly bastard.
LIL WAYNE SUCKS ASS I THOUGHT I WAS ALONE ON HIM HE REALLY NEEDS TO GET HIS GAME UP CAUSE HE IS NO WERE NEAR BEING THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE SERIOUSLY EMINEM/50 CENT/JAY-Z ARE 100000000000000x BETTER HANDS DOWN...

you obviously have no idea what good music sounds like. the carter 3 is ingenious and well worth the wait. every track holds its own weight and gets radio play. and by the way the shit sold over a million copies in the first week. guess those teenage girl roll a lil deeper than a few hundred thousand.this gump ass nigga!! haha. do yourself a favor and listen to some soft rock or somethin. hip hop apparently aint the genre for you.
