heres some facts for you bro...
all you new kids thinking this is hard are so ignorant, lil wayne is a mumbling bitch. you know nothing of the pioneers of true hiphop back when people cared about more than money, hoes, jet planes, cristal....its truly sad. biggie,tupac,nas, gangstarr,talib kweli,ll cool j, run dmc, grandmaster flash, kool g rap, there is so many artists that put people like lil wayne, wiz kalifa, all of no limit , everyone..to shame

I mainly listen to underground, such as Curren$y and a few others I've mentioned before. I must agree, that song is alright imo. You gotta put rappers in their categories, you can't compare Lil Wayne to 2Pac...Lil Wayne is a punchline rapper.

i was with you till you said no limit. atleast half that list would get crushed by mia x alone then if youd put magic and soulja slim in the mix....they'd have no hope besides biggie, pac and nas.

I like the words that are said. Don't freak out. "Mi Casa, Su Casa. My house is a ho house." Like that's bad ass. And the beat???
Like for real, I understand that there is rap with a message of community and change. But some of it's just BAD ASS. Because they got money and their like "Mayne, this shit is BAD ASS what we doin everyday." Then they go make a BAD ASS song about it. I don't think there is anything wrong with it.

If you look back I agreed a long time ago that no music was meant to be industrialized. But that still doesn't mean rap died.
They only promote the brand after the fact of its fame to personally gain fame and recognition. And if they're really wearin the shit, what's wrong with that? They promote each other and the life style 10x as much as any brand name.
Your looking at it from an outside perspective. Your calling it dead, which means you obviously don't care to see the message or maybe you just don't hear it anymore. But it's there. Listen to that misunderstood song on page 2 or 3, and listen to the whole thing. Wayne used to get high and codiened out and call what he was writing "The History Books" Said "All Teachers ain't gonna have class that day" (No other rapper had a show or put out an album the day he put out one of the Carter albums).
It may have been the rantings of a drug crazed lunatic similar to the recent Charlie Sheen meltdown. But HE HAD A MESSAGE. A message that he personally wanted to deliver to the world with his music. It wasn't just about money and the other rappers recognized it. THEY ALL RECOGNIZED. Then Freaknik came out. Look up the word Freaknik. Think about the message they were trying to send with the Ghetto Commandments, and simply by unleashing the word Freaknik upon the stoned community(Adult Swim). And by allowing Lil Wayne to be Jesus above Snoop (who was involved) and many other rappers. They wanted everyone to look a little deeper. If you haven't seen Freaknik, or looked into the civil rights movement you should. It has A LOT to do with what's going on right now.

Im going to start off by saying FUCK everyone who says hip hop is dead.Do a little research before you jump to conclusions. That being said. [video=youtube;tyiO6l7gLCw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyiO6l7gLCw[/video]
