Aside from being black and rapping, and writing songs about drug use from the perspective of the user better than Kid Cudi, who doesn’t really know how to write a song at all, yeah there aren’t too many similarities. They do that in different way’s of course. Even if it’s not entirely about drug use and the lifestyle, Doobie Ashtray was a great example.
That Licensed to Ill came out when you were that young sort of makes my point… not sure how you thought that helped and felt the need to edit that in.
Feel free to type that long ass post. I imagine it’ll make as much sense as your other posts.

Larry, you’re obviously biased towards Wayne, and I’m biased against him. My posts make perfect sense, yet you like Wayne and don’t get 'em. I know he sucks balls and continually talks about spaceman nonsense and your defending him seems silly to me. Whatever. We’ll both be ok. Lakers in 6.
Edit: Oh, I remember quite a bit from when I was 5. Don’t know how that discredits my point?

So do I. That’s the one that made me really notice him.

I think he sucks balls and continually talks about spaceman nonsense and your defending him will one day make sense to me. Whatever. We’ll both be ok. Lakers in 6.

Yeah, I can agree with that :). Especially Lakers in 6–before last night I was worried about that!
[FWIW my point about your age was that you would have necessarily had to go back and listen to rap from that time when you were older, as a 5 year old doesn’t really have well developed tastes in music. You made the point that you were alive back then, I just figured at your age you’d have had to go back and listen to 80s rap the same way I did, being born in 1990. It wasn’t really a big deal, I just think that point would’ve worked better if a 35 year old had said it.]
EMINEM - RECOVERY
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE
He is also featured on BOB’s album…
Thing is 'bout Lil Weezy, is that his more ‘underground’ works are quite different than the mainstream commercial shit he releases through Young Money (all them songs with Drake, “Bedrock”, etc). So basically if you’re not too big of a Wayne fan or just plain hate BECAUSE of the stupid shit you hear on the radio just check out his mixtapes and give them a try. I still think hes got very solid material in that area.
Other than that I think Wayne is a very skilled rapper and respected in the field. You don’t see any wankers beefin’ or tryin’ to bust with Wayne save some underground-wanna-make-it-big fucks like Gillie da Kid residing there in Philly.
Once he gets out jail WATCH OUT.

yes it is… dirt nasty is actually pretty entertaining… him and mickey avalon are good friends friends
and larrydavid… you read into lil waynes musics the same way people read into Shakespeare etc… half the time you’re making up complete garbage that wasn’t even intended. Or the same way people over analysed the Beatles “i am walrus” just to find out the song is about jack shit.

Why can’t you read into Lil Wayne the same way you can with Shakespeare? No form of cultural production is privileged over another in terms of meaning - that’s a pretty ancient point of view in terms of cultural theory. The artist or writer releases their work, and once that is done, the meaning is constructed by society, not by the artist. There are no concrete meanings made by the artist, only intended meanings. John Lennon may have intended “I Am the Walrus” to have no meaning, but people will assign their own meaning to it.
B.o.B, Devin the Dude’s what’s up.
Drake, who?
Kid Cudi crap…just sayin’

Yeah I agree, I think his best work is probably Da Drought 3, which is a mixtape. I still think Tha Carter 3 was a great record, but I barely play it now, whereas Drought 3 really lets his personality fly, and is still rewarding me on repeat listens even 3 years later. Dedication 2 was dope too, as was Drought is Over Part 2.

If you really think what I posted was comparable to the way one analyzes Shakespeare, you either failed high school English, or it failed you.
Sorry, I’d make a bigger effort on the response but based on your past posts it’s not really worth it.
