Wayne when you say best rappers wayne should be top 10 easy the only other rappers that have the star power as him are,
Jay Z,
Eminem
Kanye
2pac
& 50 cent (who's fading away from the rapping scene and becoming more of a diddy type figure)
Lets break down his disgog in sales
Tha Block Is Hot: Platinum (nas & jay z couldnt sell a mill w/ their debuts, just sayin)
Lights Out: Gold
500 Degreez: Gold
Tha Carter: Gold (production was dope lyrics were good & his 3rd top 5 album in 5 years)
Tha Carter II: Platinum (i'll call this a classic album no mannie but production is still great lyrically he's at his peak and the features are great w/ a young curren$y that was on par ifnot better than wayne)
Tha Carter III: Platinum 3x (i'll call this one of the most influential albums in the past 10 years rappers are still on this blueprint & the first weeks sales on this was 1,005,545 copies in the US somethin Emienm couldnt do with Recovery or Relapse. the album has solid songs including the most popular ringtone to date lollipop)
Rebirth: Gold ( i'd like to see Nas one of the most stanned rappers here do a Rock album and still sell 500,00 copies of an album that leaked almost a month before it cameout in Feb)
I Am Not a Human Being: Gold (this was practically a mixtape with cheap production and it sold 500K copies this is something i highly doubt anyother rapper could do)
and i cant forget the Leak EP that sold what 300,000 copies thats more than what some rappers can sell with a double disc album & he had the Young Money Album and im pretty sure that went Gold!
@ AC: i said 50 has star power like him
@ *Flockaveli* Libs Do It Better: Yeah you are right Sales=/= Talent but wayne does have talent and to say he isnt top 100 i'd have to call that an ignorant statement wayne would be top 100 after hsi 1st couple of albums
& @ Bad Company: Sales obviously mean something other wise why are there rappers liek lupe fiasco complaining about leaks
