I feel that Lyrically..he has elevated to a level no one has reached. Off the dome just ONE bar can mean up to ten different things and ties to other songs from a decade before. His algorithm his genius is unmatched. I can hear one song hundreds of times and years later I still hear yet another bar that went over my head. It’s so deep that most just don’t get it
Some of his verses i don't get till years later lol I hear song again and I'm like DAYYYUUUMMM 😅😅😅 wayne and em are amazing at what they do and both so diff at same time
yeah for sure. Speaking of, a lot of people don't like the new Eminem music as much as his old but his Kamikaze and Music to be murdered by 1&2 are examples of how much better Em has gotten. He has bars that I still try won't get till down the line. Also, Royce 5 9's bars are so deep that once I do understand some of them, I'm blown away by how crazy they are. Kxng Crooked is another one.
Yea wayne legit gets overlooked as far as accolades, accomplishments, and the influence he genuinely had on a bunch of the rappers that are considered some of people’s best and its actually insane
@Fol übla Haider It is true. I don't see how people say Drake has surpassed Wayne as far as rap goes. Drake can't even freestyle while Wayne can go in the booth without writing and drop better bars than Drake.
IMO Wayne is the greatest. He has everything: flow, substance, bars, delivery, originality, and influence. People wanted to be like Wayne like they wanted to be like Pac. Drake, Kendrick, Cole, Future, Nicki,etc, are all prodigies of Wayne. His influence will run for generations. Not to mention he mainstreamed the autotune-hip hop sound. Remember at the time… people HATED autotune and rap. Now look at ALL of hip hop, everyone’s using it. Wayne so overlooked it drives me nuts. His dominance came at time where there was JAY Z, EM, AND KANYE, and they all said he was better than them at some point in time. It’ll never happen again. S/O Weezy man 🐐
Wayne influenced this whole generation, he changed hiphop and started an era. No one was tatted up until Wayne came, he had a different swag, temperament, and charisma.
Mannn I'm 23 and grew up on Wayne's shit. It's so sad that the younger generations and even some of my peers don't recognized his legend status. To me, he is the greatest to ever do it. Weezy F
bro damn near everyone who knows more than a little bit about the rap game knows Wayne's a titan & one of the most unique, successful & creative ever. Idk who y'all know who doesn't think much of Lil Wayne but this man resonates with like 3 entire generations of rap fans 😂😂😂
@@keezemojito1278Well that depends on your location in the world too. I myself am from the Netherlands and I don’t know this for sure so don’t quote me on it but a lot of people won’t even know Lil Wayne or have heard of him but in passing at most. A damn shame though
Wayne’s run with mixtapes and features in 2007 will be unmatched. Dude literally would put out a song every week And those songs would fire af with clever lines and metaphors too !!!! He kept saying “C3” before every song or when he dropped The Leak..straight heat
The best rapper of all time. He performs in every category of a MC (lyrical, story telling, bars, longevity, impact, influence, performer, record breaker). Just my opinion tho.
We’ll never see another run like Wayne’s run then he passes the torch to Nicki & Drake. I personally feel like most artist in Wayne’s position back then would’ve held Drake back due to competition/ego
Facts , even when Wayne was going thru the lawsuit with birdman he could’ve put all drake and nicki music on hold but he still didn’t let his personal situation affect their careers
I've only been a Lil Wayne fan for about a month and a half (since July 2022), but I've already watched countless interviews, follow him on social media, listen to him on a daily basis, and I'm currently reading his memoir/diary that he wrote while in jail. I love his wordplay, creativity, intelligence, and personality. He really seems like a nice, genuine, and appreciative person, even though the media often doesn't want to portray that side of him. If I could have been present to witness him recording any song, I'd probably choose 6 Foot 7 Foot, because the metaphors are INSANE!!! Or maybe How to Love, because it's so emotional and allows us to see his softer side.
@@reseanreed2427 Yes, please! I especially love his serious, introspective songs as well as the ones with good punchlines and delivery, and I'm not fond of anything similar to I Am Not a Human Being 2.
Mixtape Wayne is the best. All the dedication’s. No ceilings and the drought’s. Can kill anybody’s song. Name a rapper you can get on a Adele song “rolling in the deep” and murder it. You have a lot of music to listen too..
Lil Wayne is in my Top 10 ever. Ofc he had some unhealthy issues back then, but when he‘s on the mic he spitting fire. His mixtape/Album days between mid 00s-Early 10s were legendary asf. The influence is crazy After that. legend of his own. 🐐
Idk about impact on everyones life. Lmao its just music man. I rather look at his character then his music. But i respect your opinion. He changed rap not the world lol
Wayne was clearly put on this earth to rap and he has excelled at that assignment. The first line from Wayne that caught my attention was "We ain't got on no suits cuz we ain't tryin' to be presidents" from The Block is Hot. The Polo G clip of this video reminded me of when Wayne went in on A$AP Rocky's "M$," straight fire. I will forever be a fan of the "No Ceilings" and "Dedication" mixtapes. I sometimes imagine what he could have done on DJ Screw or J Dilla beat...
DJ Screw didn’t make beats, but I get what you saying. Wayne on an Screw tape chopped and screwed like how he did on Juvenile 400 Degreez, that would be fire. Screw would probably put Wayne on beats we never even thought of putting him on like some old school shit or a NWA beat.
That run he had between 2005-2008 was insane! Carter 1, Carter 2 Dedication 1, Dedication 2, Suffix, S. Carter tapes, Lil Weezy Ana, Tha Carter 2 Part 2, Tha Carter 3 mixtape, The Drought 3, The Drought is Over 1-5! That’s a whole discography in itself!
I’m 34 I’ve been listening to the HOT BOYZ and Wayne since I was 7. He stood out even at that time ! 27 yrs later he grew to be my favorite rapper of ALL TIME. 💪🏿
Dedication 2 and Carter 2 were very pivotal in my eyes .. DEFinitely began the process of solidifying Wayne as one of the greatest recorded lyricists, artists, and musicians of all time
Wayne I’m so grateful that I was alive to witness your mixtape run…. You changed my life. You are hip hop. Your impact is undeniable and your influence will continue to live on even after you transition over. Imma meet you one day and tell you this myself
Wayne going down as one of the best to ever do it period. I would say if I could have seen him in the booth making a record. It would have been "A Milli" 💯
I'm so glad you made this video no one never shared the light on how the best rappers gave their flowers to Lil Wayne as being the best rapper I never knew Eminem or Jay-Z admitted
Y'all got to understand he's that person who opened up the world by telling us about us if u just listen what he speak... understand him through our music that's way we can listen he's speaking true no cap shit.....if u can understand life u understand him period......
Wayne’s the GOAT simply off of the quantity of music he has. Track for track, released unreleased, features, mixtapes, choruses for other artists songs. The shit is unmatched.
Thank you for doing this video! Lil Wayne is unmatched and easily the greatest all rounder artist, from bars, punchlines, hits, mixtapes, lets not even talk about the amount of features, 25 + years actively in the game, maaaan, the list goes on! BIG UP THE GOAT
yeah I would say Em and Wayne are 2 best rappers ever. 3rd best has way too many contenders: Nas, Jay Z, Royce 5'9", Lupe Fiasco, Big Pun, B.I.G., Redman, Method Man, Big L, Rakim, J Cole, Kendrick Lamar, King Los, T.I., Jadakiss, AZ, Beanie Sigel, Pusha T, Hopsin, Fabolous, the rest of Slaughterhouse(Joe Budden, Kxng Crooked, Joel Ortiz), and sorry, no Drake for me. And Nikki Minaj is the best female rapper to me based on syllable rhyming, bars structure, metaphors, lyrical content, overall song quality. She is much better than all the female rappers fighting her for the top spot today, especially Cardi B (can't stand her). But from before: Lil Kim, Lauren Hill and Left Eye are in the running as well.
The man that will always be the greatest rapper of all times. Not that he beats everyone at everything but he is the most balanced and is a master of everything. 9/10 storytelling when he does it, 9/10 inspirational songs, 9/10 club songs, 9/10 hitmaking ability, 9/10 diversity as an artist, 9/10 lyricism, 9/10 introspective rap, and 10/10 in worplay
Lil Wayne is one of the only current rappers that when listening to most of his songs, there's something he says that's so dope that you have to hear the verse or verses again immediately. There's always something that makes you say "wait....did you hear wtf he said?" Followed by an undeniable urge to play it back. The question of "did you hear wtf he said?" Is not just asked when with others. A lot of the times the question is asked out loud when you're by yourself. After playing it again there's always this speechless aww feeling that's only caused by the experience of greatness . And the joy / appreciation of being the one witnessing what was just heard.
THANK YOU for making this video! Wayne definitely deserves his flowers while he is with us! The time we get to say hes a LIVING legend is limited and he needs to be appreciated. If i could have been there for any live studio sesh i would want to be there for him recording Hustler Musik or Mona Lisa!
Flowers for this man have been long overdue and what’s crazy is that our other candidates for the goat status are either dead or In their 50s I.e Eminem , Jay Z,Nas...While Wayne is still only 38 LMAO
Nahh, Lil Wayne has been number 1 for me for many years already. All of my friends also either have Wayne as their top or in their top 5. Anyone overlooking him just don't understand rap.
His dedication to the Carter’s albums are just pure artistry.. his rhymes and bars are second to none IN THE WORLD!! Easily the best rapper in the world! And apart from his skills behind the microphone.. he’s a awesome father/person! Legend of the rap game 4 everrrr gggg 🔥🔥💯💯💯
Lil Wayne, the true GOAT. Been rapping for over 30 years, still untouchable and still relevant. The first true RAPSTAR. Nobody else comes even close. Started first rapping when he was just 8 , is almost 40 and everybody knows about him. Once in a lifetime story and talent. Give him his flowers.
Wayne is my favorite rapper in the world.. Of course I have other favorites that I listen to from time to time, but I remember listening to CashMoney Hotboys albums when Wayne had an Afro and Juvenile/BG were looked at as the best out of the group. I was there when CM broke up and Wayne put the record label on his back. I was there when Wayne started The SQAD UP mixtape series. I was there when all of his features were being dropped on limewire. I’m 31yo now, and I literally started listening to Lil Wayne when I was like 8/9years old. His run to greatness might be the GREATEST of all time💯
My all time favorite rapper and will always be. I was in high school when he shocked the world with his awesome cast of features and releases. I've seen him live 5 times and loved every second of each one. The best rapper ever Dewayne Micheal Carter
Greatest lyrically inclined rapper in my book... his word play is unlike no other... I be shocked when folks don't even have him in the top 5, or top ten at that...
The video was very well put together. Thanks for giving the goat his flowers because nowadays rappers are either disrespected when they get "old" or only praised once they're dead whether it happens sooner or later.
Wayne definitely deserve all his flowers 💐 forever because he influenced a whole generation man salute to Wayne and salute to birdman and cash money for letting the world to 👂 hear him
Love this video bro . Not enough people really understand or give the time to appreciate what this man has done on this earth as far as music . If god was a rapper he’d look like Wayne
Birdman singlehandedly caused Soundcloud rappers by delaying Tha Carter V. If you look at the timeline, the year C5 was supposed to come out was the year trashy mumble rappers started to pop off on Soundcloud. People were desperate for music, and Wayne wasn't allowed to release. So people started settling for less, because that's all they had.
Wayne’s Carter 2 had that Best Rapper Alive, no one took him as serious then and prior, that year He lost to T.I for King of the South! Today Wayne’s top 5 dead or alive and even amongst anybodys top 5, Wayne’s lyrical ability is unmatched
When u add up every single thing then he's definitely a top 5 of all time. I'd even say hes arguably in top 3 and that's with jay z and probably pac or biggie.
I grew up listening to Wayne when he hit the scenes and his music was always dope and just a different smooth spin on rap. I gotta say tho when I heard da da da lil Wayne rooftop punk video I was blown away at his jump and how smooth that was also. I play a lot of his music at work daily but every couple months I drop on da da da and it's such a dope change hearing a rapper who inspired you do something so different. Mad respect for his views and staying out of any drama he a top g.
You should’ve had the clip of Mac saying they clowned Kendrick because K-Dot got Fight The Feeling days before Wayne got The Question and Wayne had his verse done and sent back within 24 hours but Kendrick took a week or two 😂🖤
People forget Wayne is still alive and dangerous because he isn't putting fire out like he used to but that's just it, he is still alive and capable of takin any modern or old rappers out. He has done so much and has proved he is top 5 dead or alive. The amount of quality material he has put out is admirable. Not gonna say there aren't duds in the mix but for any fan those things are a given since he has recorded so much. He will forever be a GOAT and those that dont agree, well you havent truly listened to his music. Thank you Wayne, you are an inspiration to so many. We are all impatiently waiting for some new material. Love, a fan!

Not that he beats everyone at everything but he is the most balanced and is a master of everything. 9/10 storytelling when he does it, 9/10 inspirational songs, 9/10 club songs, 9/10 hitmaking ability, 9/10 diversity as an artist, 9/10 lyricism, 9/10 introspective rap, and 10/10 in worplay
All of those honestly can be 10/10 when he really wants to lol
10/10 flow too
not to mention he literally is still free styling till this day
not to mention he literally is still free styling till this day
you're slighting wayne on all the 9s & u didn't even put cadence, delivery or even versatility lol
Wayne’s style and metaphors bred so many styles TODAY and he doesn’t get enough respect for that!
Lil Wayne is one of the only current rappers that when listening to most of his songs, there's something he says that's so dope that you have to hear the verse or verses again immediately. There's always something that makes you say "wait....did you hear wtf he said?" Followed by an undeniable urge to play it back. The question of "did you hear wtf he said?" Is not just asked when with others. A lot of the times the question is asked out loud when you're by yourself. After playing it again there's always this speechless aww feeling that's only caused by the experience of greatness . And the joy / appreciation of being the one witnessing what was just heard.
This video is perfect! Wayne inspired a whole generation. He OWNED the radio for almost TWO decades straight… TWO, decades! 🙏🏾
Thank you glad you liked it! Agreed, he is extremely impressive
U ain't Neva liein bro
THANK YOU for making this video! Wayne definitely deserves his flowers while he is with us! The time we get to say hes a LIVING legend is limited and he needs to be appreciated. If i could have been there for any live studio sesh i would want to be there for him recording Hustler Musik or Mona Lisa!
Thank you for the comment and for watching! Any of those would have been dope to witness live
This is a well researched video great work. Weezy has been one of the most influential figures in my life.
Thank you!!
Top 3 lyricists of all time for me 💯
That “I have class” to “he has class” it’s little tweaks like that, that make me love the process of music production.
Flowers for this man have been long overdue and what’s crazy is that our other candidates for the goat status are either dead or In their 50s I.e Eminem , Jay Z,Nas...While Wayne is still only 38 LMAO
He's 39...40 in sept
Nahh, Lil Wayne has been number 1 for me for many years already. All of my friends also either have Wayne as their top or in their top 5. Anyone overlooking him just don't understand rap.
Need a track with new Wayne and new Em. Their styles would definitely still compliment each other's.
This man's music carried us for many years, if there's anything that today's generation have in common, it's Weezy F Baby.
The summer of 2006-2007 was lit his mixtapes were amazing listening to on my way to school thanks for the best memories wayne
His dedication to the Carter’s albums are just pure artistry.. his rhymes and bars are second to none IN THE WORLD!! Easily the best rapper in the world! And apart from his skills behind the microphone.. he’s a awesome father/person! Legend of the rap game 4 everrrr gggg 🔥🔥💯💯💯
I respect this man🙏🏽.. Lil Tunchi
Baybeh
Lil Wayne, the true GOAT. Been rapping for over 30 years, still untouchable and still relevant. The first true RAPSTAR. Nobody else comes even close. Started first rapping when he was just 8 , is almost 40 and everybody knows about him. Once in a lifetime story and talent. Give him his flowers.
no doubt
Let's not go to far
@@str8duval it's not too far
@@jonahjoy5463 it's way to far lol.
Facts
Wayne is my favorite rapper in the world.. Of course I have other favorites that I listen to from time to time, but I remember listening to CashMoney Hotboys albums when Wayne had an Afro and Juvenile/BG were looked at as the best out of the group. I was there when CM broke up and Wayne put the record label on his back. I was there when Wayne started The SQAD UP mixtape series. I was there when all of his features were being dropped on limewire. I’m 31yo now, and I literally started listening to Lil Wayne when I was like 8/9years old. His run to greatness might be the GREATEST of all time💯
My all time favorite rapper and will always be. I was in high school when he shocked the world with his awesome cast of features and releases. I've seen him live 5 times and loved every second of each one. The best rapper ever Dewayne Micheal Carter
Greatest lyrically inclined rapper in my book... his word play is unlike no other... I be shocked when folks don't even have him in the top 5, or top ten at that...
Definetly deserves the Flowers.
Dood has songs with some of the biggest artists out there!
2007-11 he was getting so many features because he was that biggest artist out there
@@cliffordthomas9776 of course i meant Legends in the game that were there before him.
wayne still killing features
Factual.
mane wat he did to features in 2021 waz brazy.
I would've loved to watch him record 'Pussy,Money,Weed'
One of my favourite songs ever along with Tha Mobb, Wayne is the greatest ever to me
Tha Mobb my shit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 “Young tune the big cahoona ; Its my ocean baby yall niggas is tuna.”🔥🔥🐐
Forgot abt that song, on it lol
Lil Wayne = 🐐. That’ll never change 💯
His music is ageless and his music always surprises me 🤦🏻♂️🔥🔥
Wayne in the studio is like a pro skater riding street. He been doing it since he was a kid. He better be damn good.
This video was incredibly fun to make and research because Wayne is so unique. The 10,000 bars story is wild. A 🐐who deserves all of his 💐
The video was very well put together. Thanks for giving the goat his flowers because nowadays rappers are either disrespected when they get "old" or only praised once they're dead whether it happens sooner or later.
I would want to be in the studio when he did Amilli. Cos Tha Carter III was the turning point in Wayne's career as a superstar
Wayne is the best to ever do it man... Drake is further proof of that.
Y’all not tb how consistent he was! He was really that! Thank you for the fix before the vI 🙏🏽
I would love to see him create that “swag surf” freestyle on no ceilings. Bars were insane!!
Naw, run this town freestyle. Killed it bro...
@@waytogowaynes666 factual 🔥
facts, a lot of people dont know it only took wayne 3 weeks or less to make the no ceilings mixtape
Man this brings tears to my eye's. The magnitude of inspiration Wanye given to this planet is off the charts.
Thank you for this King! We needed this
Wayne definitely deserve all his flowers 💐 forever because he influenced a whole generation man salute to Wayne and salute to birdman and cash money for letting the world to 👂 hear him
Arguably the 🐐 everything is up for debate but I don't see anyone pushing a versus
Lil Wayne should be in everyone’s top 5
Wayne kept us fed before streaming.. I remember hearing hit songs and saying, "Can't wait til Wayne kills this."
Facts
man those were the days fr
Love this video bro . Not enough people really understand or give the time to appreciate what this man has done on this earth as far as music . If god was a rapper he’d look like Wayne
Birdman singlehandedly caused Soundcloud rappers by delaying Tha Carter V. If you look at the timeline, the year C5 was supposed to come out was the year trashy mumble rappers started to pop off on Soundcloud. People were desperate for music, and Wayne wasn't allowed to release. So people started settling for less, because that's all they had.
Lmao quite an analysis
Lmao wow
His bars in No Love was just💥.
Throw dirt on me and grow a wild flower 🌸.... Sheeeeeesh
The greatest of all time for me. Add the fact he's inspired an.entire generation that's making music rn
Man that's Star67🔥 got chills when I first heard it
So crazy right?
Wayne’s Carter 2 had that Best Rapper Alive, no one took him as serious then and prior, that year He lost to T.I for King of the South!
Today Wayne’s top 5 dead or alive and even amongst anybodys top 5, Wayne’s lyrical ability is unmatched
You are tripping, Wayne ain't top 5 dead or alive. 10 maybe but even that's a stretch. More like 15-20.
@@radarinfinite1032 you’re entitled to an uneducated opinion
That track is soooo dope lol that iron maiden sample? Smh man
When u add up every single thing then he's definitely a top 5 of all time. I'd even say hes arguably in top 3 and that's with jay z and probably pac or biggie.
@@cmonbruh7139 not if we are talking bars.
Always a legend
what’s the background music called at 02:25?
There will never be another Wayne the Goat
All my Indian brothers and sisters who vibes on lollipop raise your hands. Either he or akon was the first Hip Hop artist I heard for the first time.
Same. But I'm not Indian
Agreed
GOAT !!!!!! LEGEND !!!! 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🌟🌟🌟🌟🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would want to see dedication 2. That made me realize how crazy wayne really is I’m the booth
I grew up listening to Wayne when he hit the scenes and his music was always dope and just a different smooth spin on rap. I gotta say tho when I heard da da da lil Wayne rooftop punk video I was blown away at his jump and how smooth that was also. I play a lot of his music at work daily but every couple months I drop on da da da and it's such a dope change hearing a rapper who inspired you do something so different. Mad respect for his views and staying out of any drama he a top g.
I love his delivery! It's unique and recognizable. Lil Wayne exclusive!
Can u imagine if Wayne and Hov dropped a track today
It wouldn't be impactful as it would've been when Wayne was the hottest artist
@@Kemetblack90 they did that already!
Wayne would still kill jay on the track, jay z dont wanna embarrass himself
You can really see Lil Wayne's influence in Nicki and how she does a lot of freestyles and remixes and still has bars for her own songs
She doesn’t write her material - cmon now 🤦🏾♂️
@@mikedee1983 Nicki Minaj write all her shit
@@mikedee1983 yea she does ask kanye jay z etc she writes everything even her pop hits
You should’ve had the clip of Mac saying they clowned Kendrick because K-Dot got Fight The Feeling days before Wayne got The Question and Wayne had his verse done and sent back within 24 hours but Kendrick took a week or two 😂🖤
I’ve always been so happy for mac for getting a wayne verse and a Kendrick verse on the same project
@@carlossixtos don’t forget Cam’ron & Juicy J 🔥
That's the part we meant to put lol but amazing story!
@@tylertracey8207 yeah it’s just crazy he put that out for free instead of it being an album
@@hiphopdx that’s hilarious 😂
That freestyle at 2:34 🔥 The way Wayne put words together is vicious! One of the GOATS.
His ability to make one vividly imagine a story being told in his bar’s and flow
1 of the best commercials I've seen was Jay Z different album cover
Agreed
Although he’s seen as one of the greatest. I’ve always thought he’s been slept on. His metaphors and similes are crazy. He’s uniquely different.
"Ima misfit ducking the fashion 1 time" is throw away bar and is more fire than most rappers ever spit
People forget Wayne is still alive and dangerous because he isn't putting fire out like he used to but that's just it, he is still alive and capable of takin any modern or old rappers out. He has done so much and has proved he is top 5 dead or alive. The amount of quality material he has put out is admirable. Not gonna say there aren't duds in the mix but for any fan those things are a given since he has recorded so much. He will forever be a GOAT and those that dont agree, well you havent truly listened to his music. Thank you Wayne, you are an inspiration to so many. We are all impatiently waiting for some new material. Love, a fan!
for Lil Wayne I think I would like to be in every studio session.....the flows are just so incredible.
