His voice was annoying and he repeated the same thing 50x in one song. As for Lil Wayne, I think his lyrics are alright, but its his voice that kills it.Bay Area music anyone?</div>It's complete garbage outside of Andre Nickatina, Mac Dre, and a few other rappers. Mac Dre is unbelievably overrated here though. People in the bay area act like he's a God when really his music is nothing that awesome. He's better than rappers like Mistah FAB or traxamillion but he's still nothing amazing.
He's ok, I have a few of his songs on my iPod. He's definitely not even close to being one of my favorites, or good enough for me to consider one of the best of all-time. His voice can get annoying at times and his lyrics are not the best but he has some good songs.

Traxamillion doesn't rap that often, but even his new single isn't half bad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjsVulaIXa4And yes, Lil Mama's "Lipgloss" is the worst song I have ever heard...She isn't that bad of a female rapper, but when your first single is a song about lipgloss, I think it speaks volumes as to where your career is going.
Bay Area rapper is terrible. I'm embarrassed with this hyphy stuff. It was good to me at first, but now its just annoying. Every single song has to do with Going dumb and stuff.. lame.

I don't think that hes overrated, I just think a lot of people from here like to pay a lot (sometimes too much) respect to him for creating the foundation of Bay Area rap...I think that some of his songs were great, but also a lot of others were just average. I like the new people a lot more- Ya Boy, Bailey, The Team, Hoodstarz, etc...
Why do rap fans say things like this: This guy is better than that guy and that guy will never be one of the best of all-time, and if you disagree with me, you're wrong.You guys talk about rappers like they're athletes or something. Music is about taste and everyone has their own preference.

F*ck lil wayne and all this crap music that comes on the radio today.Id actually rather listin to Mims because lil wayne has so much fans for a guy with as much talent as mims or a stop sign pole comming out of the ground sooo F*ck idk nba playoffs are sucking this year, go timmy, p'ce bitches
lil wayne has about 2-3 songs max that I can say I like, and those are prolly the only 2-3 songs he made w/o say weezy f baby, him, rick ross, mims, jim jones, and other terrible commercial rappers, are the reason I dont turn on the radio anymore
Young jeezy isnt that bad either. If you actually listen to some of their songs they're pretty good. his best song is probably dreamin or sole survivor.

I'd add The Pack to that group. the song I'm Shinin slaps, but most of their other songs... bleh.

It's all about what you listen to rap for so to say your opinion is the only right one is kind've funny even if I do agree with you.

Whereas out here in Colorado I could ask probably everybody at my school who Mac Dre is and some people might have heard of him.Anyways, I like one or two songs by Lil Wayne, but everything else is average or just horrible.
No you don't understand since you don't live here. People act like Mac Dre is a God. He's so unbelievably overrated here it's not even funny.
I understand that. That is just in one small area of the United States, anywhere else he is underrated. Of course he will be overrated in the area he is from.
Well that's what were reffering to. How overrated of a rapper he is in the bay area. Of course not many people are gonna know about him outside of the bay area.
