Lil Wayne was born Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. in New Orleans, Louisiana. It was around the time of the move that Dwayne Carter began to get involved more deeply in rap music, signing with Cash Money at the age of 11. A year after his move to East New Orleans, Carter accidentally shot himself in the chest at McDonald’s with a .44 Taurus Magnum; he would subsequently be on life support for two weeks. A year later, Jacida would demand Carter stay away from Brian “Baby” Williams, having gone to school with his older brother Ronald “Slim” Williams, both founders of Cash Money. The separation would only last a year as Carter returned to Cash Money after the death of Reginald McDonald on March 7, 1997. Juz tha King sponsored his performances and took him under his wing.

And that is fine. It's simply called ignorance. Not too many 'casual' music listeners care beyond what the radio plays. Life goes on for you, and them, OK? Get over it. YOU HIP-HOP PURISTS!

Just so certain people know, I certainly do not listen to Common because he has underground cred. Seriously, MF DOOM and Jedi Mind Tricks have cred too and I don't like either. Personal preference I suppose. Still, liking Lil Wayne doesn't suddenly give him more talent than another rapper. That's all I'm trying to say here. That and despite Aardvarked, most Lil Wayne fans are uneducated about music history and most likely don't even know Common, Nas, or Talib Kweli exist.

in your opinion they're not of course. i've herd a lot of songs inspired by a rapper's past or in some cases the horrid things they've done without having to listen to the boast about themselves. i'm not saying the artist in question has to hate themselves, but every song doesn't have to be based around how highly they look at themselves. as i stated before, it's like listening to kid rock sing about how he's back, and a total bad ass. it's not a bad thing to be confident, but can we get a track with substance that speaks of something different?

maybe lincoln park and slipnot dont talk about how great they are because theyre are not. or maybe because in rap theres no modesty, honestly have you ever heard of a rapper that hates himself?

Is he of African descent or a breed of gorilla? I seriously cannot tell.

Yeah he was talking to you when he was talking about "recycled insults", he clearly wasn't talking about you with his other comment and neither was I. Linkin Park and Slipknot aren't avant garde either, rofl. He was talking to eternaldescent.

i'd rather listen to what linkin park and slipknot have to say then lil' wayne. at least they talk about something other than oral sex, mounds of money, and how great they are. as stated previously, i like lil' wayne as an artist, i just wish he'd expand his horizons and sing about something other than that which i have listed above. i wasn't putting anyone else down for listening to him. personally, i'm just looking for something more appealing than a few catchy lines kids yell out in the hallways at school. i think he has that potential, he just isn't living up to it. as for my "shitty" avant grade circus music, i love it so w/e. i'm not going to sit here and tell you to kill yourself just because you don't like them. i may be a pmsy bitch, but i'm not an all around jerk.

avant garde circus music, that made my day. All these wannabe hip-hop fans need to shut the fuck up and carry on listening to whatever makes them feel cool. Hip-hop was about having fun long before it was about how underground you were. Weezy is a legitimate hip-hop artist, I know listening to Common for a couple of months has changed your outlook and perception, but you'll get over it. Different artists have different appeals, I don't listen to Weezy if I want some deep and meaningful music, I've got plenty of other artists in my collection to turn to for that. The same way I don't listen to eluvium or the album leaf when I want some up tempo music to get me pumped.
