That's a damn good summation and I'd agree...but I'd say Jay has a little of both. Jay definitely has so many one-liners that you go "Ohhhhh shit"...but yeah, not like Wayne tries to do with every line. And Wayne does have one song that comes to mind that is 'message like' with "Fuck The World".

That being said...I'd put Jay as a Top 3 MC of all-time, and arguably numero uno, and Wayne maybe somewhere in 40-50, maybe higher. Just my opinion though.
MacWQ33 Reviewed by MacWQ33 on . Jay-Z Vs. Lil Wayne 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 Rating: 5
