    Greatest rapper ever. hide show

    Dwayne Michael Carter is a rapper from New Orleans, Louisianna. IMO, he's the greatest rapper ever. I listen to him everyday on the radio and his CD's. As most Black people do, (I'm black), I enjoy his music. People dislike Wayne (or Weezy) because of his title (the greatest rapper ever). However, while I do think he is the greatest rapper, I enjoy other rappers (Akon, Young Jeezy, Will Smith, Eminem, etc.). My favorite Lil' Wayne song is "A Milli", "Got Money", "Lollipop", and "Mr. Carter". I like all of his songs. He basically "redefined" hip-hop, R&B, rap, & music basically.

    Lil Wayne is great! hide show

    Lil Wayne is a really really really good rapper! I love his music! He makes really good songs! I love his song....wait a minute, I love all of his songs! Lil Wayne is also featured in a lot of other songs as well. He is really good in Sweetest Girl with Wyclef Jean and Akon. He is also really good in the song Duffle Bag Boy with Playaz Circle. I love the song Gimmie What Ya Got. He did that song with Chris Brown, that song is on the Exclusive CD. Lil Wayne and Birdman make a really good team. Lil Wayne is a fantastic rapper!

    lil wayne is a rapper from new orleans famous for his freestyle hide show

    Lil wayne is awesome. he is the best freestyle rapper. we are losing talent like this these days with **** like 50. My favorite songs are the fireman and stuntin like my daddy. I also liked the drought 3. Lil Wayne's lyrics are original, he can walk in and create a mixtape that most other rappers couldn't make in years. Lil wayne's best albums are da carter 2 and dedication volume 2. a lot of people say that lil wayne's metaphors follow the same patter but they are all unique. overall wayne is the best rapper in about the last 5 years.
