LMFAO at whoever said tech n9ne is a sloppy rapper....ahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahaha....fuck man tech n9ne has better flow and delivery than any utha rapper...he has better lyrical content than any utha rapper besides pac and he is one of the smartest songwriters ive heard of in my life....and yall actin like wayne is better than those utha rappers coz he got more fans n mainstream appeal....lmao...that has nothing to do wit talent....and how the fuck can he be compared to any utha rapper in the game when he dont even write his own fuckin lyrics....game over yalll....
U wanna talk about record sales? OK
Techs album Absolute Power went gold with limited radio & video play. Lynch's Season album also went gold with absolutly NO radio or video play. No proper promotion & a ton of controversy behind the lyrical content. Not to mention a shitty review in The Source. Wayne is a mainstream artist who gets major radio & video play & is on the cover of every mag but still struggles 2 go gold half the time. Tech N9ne's Anghellic was/is light years ahead of anything Wayne has ever breathed on.
You talk about how Wayne has sold more records then guys like Lynch, X & Tech combined but fail 2 mention that these are underground artist. Wayne is pushed into a fuckin oblivion so he has a stronger precence then most artist esp an underground cat. Yeah Bling Bling was a hit but that song was on BG's album. Stop giving Wayne all the fuckin credit.
There was a time when Wayne was underground too & he was virtually unheard of. The underground cats I named have a world wide following. That's right world wide. Fans in England, Europe & beyond.
If sales mean so much like u say they do then I guess rappers like Hammer, Nelly, Vanilla Ice, JJ Fad & Heavy D are umongst the greats right?

alot of people. particularly jayz though, i havent listened to lil waynes newer shit as of lately enough to remember all the other 'inspirations'
thats one thing im good at with rappers, i can match up styles of flows with other rappers..like ill hear someone kick some shit and another rapper with a lines similar comes in my head.
i had a list of a good 4 people he sounded like, but yeah..dont remember anymore as it wasnt too important to remember.if i do ill get back to you on that
and thats what some people do, mimick they style after others to get hot.
i dont even know whats going on in this thread. all in know is im 25 years old, and wayne is spittin fucking lava these days...listen to drough cd 1 and tell me wayne aint spittin, and he just did that shi hella quickly! lynch is way past his prime, and aint seeing wayne is delivery, lyrics, metaphors, or anything else rap related..........IMO!
Fools on this Lil Wayne shyt hard as fuck. Listen to this song by K-Rino, this shyt murders everything Lil Wayne done and ever will do.

Struggles to go gold? Why make up shit? Carter 1=platinum Carter 2=platinum
Block Is Hot=platinum Light Off=platinum Hot Boys=2X platinum. He has trouble?
Oh yeah, show me any kind of proof besides a Tech interview where that album is certified gold. Fuck outta here with that bullshit. His new cd issn't even at 100K even with the positive reviews. Anghellic was good lyrically, but only appeals to a certain kind of fan.
As far as Bling Bling, Wayne MADE that song. That's why Turk was taken of and Wayne put on for the video version. HE made it a hit. I'm well aware he was underground at one point, and he rose above it, something the rappers you ride for want to, but never were able to do.
And you listing those platinum artists to prove that sales don't mean shit, these guys are gimmick rappers! And Nelly and Heavy are great acts. Just because there music isn't "gangsta" or "wierd" enough for you doesn't mean they suck. Wayne's fanbase aren't the same people who buy those albums and if youd actually shut the fuck up and LISTEN to Carter 2, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Carter 2!!! Carter 2!!!! Man, fuck The Carter 2. Like I said, I'd put 24 Deep up against the Carter 2 & 24 Deep was only an ep.
Make up shit? Absolute Power did go gold lil homie. Everyready been passed 100k's. Your the one making up shit...... bullshit. But anyways fuck record sales. Let's say the Wayne is the best rapper alive 4 instance(which he aint)......... Just look @ hip hop right now!! It aint like its1989, 1993 or something. Only the best came out on top durin those times & Wayne wouldn't have as big of chance in the mainstream bac then as he does now. You talk about Gangsta Rap iz dead but Wayne falls into that catagory his damn self. If not then a Gangsta Rap subcatagory. Dr. Dre said gangsta rap was dead when he left Death Row & not even a couple of years later he dropped Chronic 2001. The Bling Bling song came out when CMR were @ the hieght of there popularity so that song would of blew anyways.
