Wayne's Prime is Over

[EminemBase]

Really, he's had his prime. That was it? Lmao. Wow, embarrassing. I can't believe people seriously consider him top anything.

Also why put 'Eminem fell off' in the poll lmao. Wtf has that got to do with this. People constantly bitch about not comparing them but then every fucking thread people rile it up.

[slimsoxshady]

As much as y'all are probably surprised by this response, I agree with the topic. Doesn't mean he won't make good albums in the future, but I don't think he'll ever have another Dedication 2 to Drought 3 through Carter 3 period in him

[LilWayne4Life]

Wayne sold over 330k with rebirth in just 3 weeks in the united states alone after leaking 2 months before released date and being pushed back 7 times b/c of leaks, we are young money wasn't even known for coming out and still sold over 350k so far and its just the 2nd month in 2010. Drake's album is about to come out, Nicki album is about to come out, tyga album is about to come out. 2010 best selling hip hop albums young money will hold down at least 6 of the 10 spots.

Tha Carter 4 will be more hype then c3 IMO because the game will be staving when wayne is in jail, you know how much hype gucci got when he got out of jail? multiple that by 100x and that's what wayne will be in 2011. Young Money has 2010 on lock and after wayne getting released from jail it's a wipe for all lames. Look on any website, who is the #1 search artist for over 2 years in a row.. The best rapper alive

damn theres alot of people cumming these days

but really tho u make it sound like there all gonna come out on the same day lol

[youngfire420]

I dont think Wayne's prime is over, at all. Hes still consistently coming with fire songs/verses, and one of the hardest workers in the game. But i think that no matter how high Wayne prime will get, he will never be able to top Em's SSLP/MMLP/ES days.

[Ice_Scarred]

I don't even know, but while he's still one of the most popular rappers alive....I don't know if I could picture him having that C2-C3 height of popularity again. Slimsoxshady hit it on the nose.
But, Wayne coming out of jail is set to be a hype-machine. People will be anxious to hear his experience, his new music, his new plan, etc.

Tha Carter IV will be an anticipated album when Wayne's released, no doubt. If it wasn't for the thought of Wayne's release from jail I would definitely say his Prime might be over. Lyrically he's still not touching C2 to me. C2 just had an appeal that I don't get out of certain new Wayne material. No Ceilings was what got me back into Wayne, it seemed like he's getting back on his grind. I think C2 will always be my favorite Wayne album unless C4 proves me wrong.

We get it already... he's overrated....

[gutawafang]

I'm guessing you haven't heard the hype

Nope, I haven't heard it. Guess it isn't hype

Word.

I think some people still like Lil Wayne.

wake up man

[Mr. FTP]

since wayne is #2 in my books, i think hes still climbing up to his prime.
if C4 is more of a weezy mixtape instead of a weezy album then it will sell 2mil+ first week.
when wayne goes in cash money will keep him at the top.
they will drop 3-4 singles while hes away.
i dont start anything with these eminem fans. threads like this are just looking for trouble.
if you want to post this type of stuff, be ready for hatred.
either way,
R2+C4=classic.

[Robbie G]

Talent wise? Who knows he's still young.

Sales wise? I'd say so. He'll always sell well but I don't see him ever being able to do a million in the first week again.

You have to be shitting me.

First off nobody will be doing 2M any time soon. Secondly the only way Wayne will sell anything close to 1M let alone 2 is to make more "lolipops" and his true fans will bitch that he's selling out and making bad music. You very rarely have it both ways nowadays.
