New best rapper alive ??

[back on my bullish*t]

Dude Wayne has fell off REALLY HARD, he's in the top 10/15 but he has fell out of the Best Rapper Alive category bruh. I'm sorry.

lol wat 10/15?? more 1/3

No, be realistic now. He only has 1 classic album and thats still debatable (Carter II)

We all know that the Carter 3 leftovers were good/great and the Carter 3 album was above average but GOATs are consistent with their releases and Wayne isn't. He was considered GOAT at one point but not now.

I know he has (but not as much as you say, there's worse) but I never said he's still the best rapper alive, but what he did years ago to get that title in the first place was some fucking unbelievable shit. Niggas feared him on some real shit. He had classic albums, mixtapes, and features, on top of that he had the work ethic, and was everywhere in Hip Hop. Back then not once did niggas have to go like "When are we getting new Wayne stuff?" he literally either dropped a song, layed a verse for another track, made a hook for another track, released a mixtape, mentioned by someone else in the game that he was gonna be on their album/mixtape, or working on an album. It's insane how much he did during 05-08, in fact it's even underrated how much he did during that time.



Agreed with that part, and yeah @ Kendrick. But.... being the best rapper alive, you CAN'T just drop something real hot, disappear, do it again, disappear, do it again. If Kendrick really was gonna be mentioned as best rapper alive, you can't just have lyricism. Kendrick has lyrics, flow, etc. But you also have to have that work ethic. People fail to realize how important work ethic is, and that's something that really hurts most artists. Wayne had the full package years ago: Flow, delivery, lyrics, humor (not needed but it was cool), work ethic, wit, literally everything. Best Rapper Alive is the full package, not just lyrics/flow.

If Kendrick wants to fit this category he needs to pick up in some categories and keep up with albums like GKMC. And honestly he set the bar too high and kinda hurt himself if he can't top that album..

Kendrick has great work ethic, he's not being stupid and just dropping album after album for no reason. He's just taking his time dropping his next album because GKMC was so good, hell it was Dr. Dre who told him to chill until working on his next album. But he's still doing plenty of features and dropping songs here and there. And btw Wayne didn't drop most of those songs himself, DJs leaked his shit, they had a connect, thats why Wayne had to change engineers and shit. Mixtape DJs were the main reason for the C3 sessions. Who knows how much unreleased Kendrick there is from GKMC, hell there was some old freestyles from him we just got a lil while ago.

Carter 3 is critically acclaimed and a classic. Three of his mixtapes are considered top 10, and I don't know how we can call Kendrick consistent when he just dropped his first breakthrough material.

I know Wayne isn't the best out ATM and Kendrick is clearly rapping better right now, but I don't think that title deserves to go to anyone else yet.

GKMC was basically his version of Carter III then. Since that had him break into mainstream. He's working with artists like Lady Gaga, ASAP Rocky, Dido & etc. He broke out with the Kendrick Lamar EP and has been on a roll ever since.

weezy only has 1 classic album??
you got to be trollin

[Weezy_KB24]

Carter II
Carter III
Like Father, Like Son

All classics.


+ millions of mixtapes.

[Stryder]

Dont shoot me for this but Drake kills every verse he puts down, let it be an RnB verse or a rap verse...

[JarvisDaMex]

I'd honestly still say Lil Wayne, for the same reasons as most of you, but I think Childish Gambino as the potential to be consider one of the GOATs.

Carter II was close, but no cigar. Carter III wasn't, it had flaws like Pussy Monster and La La La. Like Father Like Son, had some lacking songs too and sometimes BM wasn't delivering.
