lol@everyone who chose wayne....lupe easily

[Strangleder]

I'd have to go with Lupe due to his unorthodox style IMO that is a key that makes him "different" if you will. Not to take away from Wayne but I also reflect with Lupe's music better, and I didnt really like Wayne until he dropped the Carter 1. Ive never had to Google a word listening to Wayne's music. Nor heard a MC publically hated on due to being smart. He inspired me to never expo for lames.

Dum muthafukkaz

But im a MC who enjoys lyrical intellect rather than grimy everyday struggles.

Think about this quote. "95 percent of people are always wrong".
Maybe THAT'S why when a rapper hits mainstreme, lil wayne, em, etc, people automatically assume and say they're wack. If I was like.. 'I LOVE EMINEM'.. people would be like, 'you fucking stan!'. Lol, it's ridiculous.
I have to admit, probably MOST artists that WAS underground, then went mainstream, was 10 times better before they hit the big time. Idk, it's funny how that shit works out. That's why a lot of people on here probably automatically hate lil wayne, cause he made it big and shit, but he's not THAT bad..

There's 2 ways to look at it really. 1.) If you made it big time, have way more fans, make way more money, people quote you more, then you MUST be better.
2.) If you think, 95 percent of people are usually wrong, and MORE people like wayne, (aka the mainstream artists) then Lupe is probably better.

I DO feel like lil wayne has more lyrical capability, but dumbs it down and raps what the PEOPLE want to hear. PEOPLE = MONEY.
^^ That sort of shit makes me mad though, Lupe I feel like raps for RAP. At the end of the day I think Lupe is a better lyricist. I can't judge by 'but i think lil wayne has the potential to'.. cause I DON'T KNOW. On a more consistent basis, LUPE is a better lyricist. I don't judge by, 'he hit mainstream so he must be wack' like a lot of this LB kats say, I just listen to the lyrics and judge.

TBH, I only listen to both of these rappers occasionally. But from what I've heard, (ive heard a little more of lil wayne probably, just cause hes been out longer).. LUPE is the better lyricist, hands down, idk why that's even an argument....

Interesting topic though! Never had these rappers compared before! Good thread!

Lupe on every single level of everything except record sales. Seriously people. Lets be real.

[GOD-OF-DISSING]

[TalkSick]

I hope wayne gets hit by a city bus then spit and pissed on by aids infected homeless heroin junkie.........then pissed on one more time for good measure........just sayin

[SIXX-SHOTT]

wayne doesnt dumb down his music..it just sounds like he does cuz all the drugs he takes..put it like this in 10 years most people wont be listening to old wayne music..itll take most people 10 years just to grasp what lupe is hollering..lupe hands down ez..substance over record sales any day
