Jay-Z Vs. Lil Wayne

[Mex]

Just curious to get some views on the hov vs weezy debate and to share mine.

I think that they aren't comparable because Jay-Z's lyrics don't make you rewind the track but they make you think and they mean something. When Jay-Z raps he tells a story, and it makes sense and has a message. When Lil Wayne raps its to other peoples beats but he does it well, he's more of a freestyler. Weezy's lyrics rhyme and make you laugh and provide good entertainment but they don't convey a general message.

Short version:
Jay-Z's songs are good and they carry a message.
Lil Wayne's songs rhyme and have good lines but don't have a message.



Anyone else on this topic?

Lil Wayne hands down....he is a master lyricist and will tear anyone down on the floor. He's just a beast that cant be tamed.

If Lil Wayne had more of a message he'd be close to being as good as Jay-Z....but a verse from "Moment of Clarity" off the black album describes Jays path well "Music business hate me cause the industry ain't make me
Hustlers and boosters embrace me and the music I be makin
I dumbed down for my audience to double my dollars
They criticized me for it yet they all yell "HOLLA!"
If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be
lyrically, Talib Kweli
Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense
But I did five mill' - I ain't been rhymin like Common since
When your cents got that much in common
And you been hustlin since, your inception
Fuck perception go with what makes sense
Since I know what I'm up against
We as rappers must decide what's most impor-tant
And I can't help the poor if I'm one of them
So I got rich and gave back, to me that's the win/win
So next time you see the homey and his rims spin
Just know my mind is workin just like them...
... rims, that is"

Heres my thoughts,

Lil Wayne is a beast with his lyrics, his flow is sick. Everything just flows in his rhymes but sometimes it doesnt make sense. Hez a "commercial rapper" WEezy is funny as hell. Way more Fly than YOu" Is a sick song. Weezy puts out so much, does this dude ever take a break from rappIN? CASH MONEY IS THE SHIT

Jay has meaning in his raps, and you can tell hez more mature than wayne. Hes been in the game forever. His beats are sick and sound more old school.

BOTH THESE *****S ARE BOZZ
