I'm not gonna sit here and lie about it. The dude has come tight in some of his music. I mean I didn't really care too much for the dude before, but he has stepped his Game up and actually grabbed my attention like WTF?!?!?! The same goes for everybody else in here, if that was a lie this thread would not be up and Lil' Wayne would not even be a topic amongst these threads. Let's not lie to ourselves.
Okay, so the amount of money he's asking for, for 16 bars is outrageous to many of us, but not to a lot of the majors.
We can all dissect the whole Lil' Wayne hustle and say so and so is much tighter etc etc, but fact of the matter is, he's hot right now on a major level. That's a spot every aspiring rapper / singer wishes to be in, so let's not go there. Some of you would be singing a different tune if it was one of your favorite rappers from the Bay in Lil' Wayne's shoes & getting that money. It's not like Wayne came out of nowhere, the dude has put in his work.
And if some of your favorites play their cards right, to grab the attention of the people outside their region and sell themselves as artist to the world, they'll have their turn as well, but let's not hate on the next man simply because he put in his time and work like everybody else. The only difference is, he's embraced on a nationwide (might even be worldwide) level. Wayne is in every major Hip Hop Magazine, got videos in rotation and is really doing it like many of us only wish we could (and I mean that with all due respect).
Instead of pointing fingers we should take a deeper look, throw out our game plan which hasn't worked and read a few Lil' Wayne blueprints and step our Game up.
Let's be fuckin' real for once up in here!
