Lil Wayne is garbage. Seems like you either love em or hate em at this pt and probably depends on when you started listening to hip hop. I'm all about people liking different artists so I haven no problem with any of you saying you think hes nice.

Imo though, hes no where even close to a top 15 current mc. Off the top of my head: Nas, Hov, Jada and Styles, Sigel, Lupe, Joe Budden, Common, Mos, Kweli, Black Thought, Cassidy, AZ, Andre 3000, Em when he feels like rapping even after the wackness that was Encore. I could go on with better rappers but might as well try and put ppl on to artists.

Fuck it, just go buy Illmatic, light up and listen all the way through, that ladies and gentleman is hip hop.
