    His voice, lyricism, flow, everything was great then. n----- just rapped straight lyrics and no corny a--- punchlines, that's the Wayne I miss.

    I like his recent stuff too but it's really a difference. That's why I think a lot of his 'haters' will appreciate his older albums

    He's like Eminem at the moment (not as bad tho), when he has a subject to rap about that is personal to him (whether it be street, murder, etc) he's at his best. Glory, He's Dead, My Heart Races On showed this for me. The normal Wayne song (bragging, p----, money, etc) he seems like he's going through the motions at this point. Those subject matters don't bother me, some of his best songs are about that stuff, but at this point, he just doesn't seem as motivated when making those songs to me.

    well then why wasn't he on your list? oh that's right, you "forgot" you "forgot" to put one of the best and MOST WELL KNOWN/POPULAR hip hop artists of all time on a greatest rappers ever list. how can you expect to be taken seriously as a professional rap critic with blunders like this on your resume? and what makes it even worse is that you listen to the albums 4345345345 times and you still "forgot" lol

    well guess what paul, i just forgot to put you on my best rap critics list

    it's not on my "resume"--it's a message board thread from years ago where i rattled off names in five minutes and forgot a name. not forgot about him, mind you: i forgot to physically type it out because i assumed after "nas, jay, pac, ghost" etc that i had listed him. you're obsessed with that thread, where i immediately pointed out my mistake. grow up.
