It all comes down to money I believe. Tech N9ne & Masta Ace, while very dope & talented, don't make anywheres close the amount of money that Lil Wayne makes off of record sales, so I believe that plays a big part in it, but I could be wrong.
After he blew up with the SSLP, for awhile there he only did records w/ Shady Records/Aftermath artists/Detroit artists/friends- Obie Trice, Sticky Fingaz, etc.
Do people realize that he stopped working with Missy Elliot, Skam, etc. smaller acts after he got really big?
Do you mean that he is a sell out? I don't think you do, but that's some valid points you just made. But this is long time before Wayne even made it big, so that wasn't a matter, I think. There's something else, maybe the label wanted to maintain a status quo or some shit.
Looking at the scenario now, it about money and status.
