    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Air Fresh:</div><div class="quote_post">Everybody can't be the same, just because Wayne doesn't have the complexity of some of the rappers you listed doesn't mean he can't be a good rapper.</div>

    You're right, he CAN be a good rapper, if he put the work in to change, however he ISNT a good rapper, based on his current style.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Air Fresh:</div><div class="quote_post">Before I said he was the "best rapper alive", well I definitely take that back because I realized Wayne is what he is. He is going to talk about money, hos, cars, and guns. I just happen to like the way he does it, by the way of his punchlines ect. But he is definitely far from the best.</div>

    The way I look at it, Wayne is on the same level and The Game, his subject matter is all "Cash Money", "Weezy F. Baby" "I'm So Rich" etc. etc. If he was as good as he says he is, he would be switching things up, trying other avenues rather than the same tried crap every song.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Air Fresh:</div><div class="quote_post">No he isn't on the level of people like Nas, Rakim, or Mos Def. His style is far different from theirs, I'd rather listen to someone who is good with their own style, than to be a bad wanna-be.</div>

    While you're right, those 3 all have completley different styles, all while meeting the same criteria in making a well rounded, good MC.

    I definitely agree with you...

    Thats why I like Lupe better.

    Now you can't tell me Lupe is garbage.

    Call him gay if you want to, you don't know them so its not like it matters what you think. The n is not gay, he has a daughter. If anything that would make him Bi, and dude is not bi. He kisses a man that he sees as his father. If someone took you off the streets and raised you, and told him to kiss you in the mouth you probably would to. Thats their reason for that, I'm not supporting it, I think its very weird. But to each his own.

    My only question is, why would another man care about whast another man does, when he has no relation to the person at all?

    You edited your post for spelling yet you still spelled ideology wrong, get on ya job hater.

    Well I havent heard enough of him to comment, but he is definatley better than Lil' Wayne, thats for sure, lol.

    Also Lil' Wayne isnt gay, Baby is his father (adoptive father), so thats why he is kissing him in that photo, just as any boy would to his father. Men in the Mafia (I think this may be a common Italian greeting, although I'm not sure) frown upon homosexuality, yet they greet each other with a kiss on the cheek, does that make them gay?

    Yeh but these two aren't in the mafia are they? I'm not saying he's gay though, it was meant to be a little joke. Maybe he's curious.

    My favorite Lil Wayne line.

    "I'm a p-p-pimp,
    I spit out shrimp" - Cash Money Millionaires

    If that's what Air Fresh defines a stand out line, then I'll take T.I.'s bland lines everyday.

    It's not photoshopped. Baby even went on some radio show and discussed what he was doing.

    Line in my sig, which was a freestyle by Wayne> any TI lines I've heard.

    and I'm curious to what song that line is from, he probably said that when he was like 13-15 years old. Nvm, damn that line was garbage, I found the song, and idk where the hell that came from.

    Stand Out lines imo

    I like Lil Wayne but I realize there are a lot of better rappers and I don't see how that is a standout line.

    Do you understand what he is trying to say?

    Its pretty clever imo, because of him applying big wheels as in rims, but big wheels are also refered to as a kids toy.

    Just downloaded a Biggie album called "Ready to Die". It's an old album, but it looks pretty good. Maybe you guys could name Biggie's best album.
