God. That song was so dope. Wayne has some sick shit and also has some terrible shit. But he has some dope ass flow and some sick beats.
Just because he isn't "super thug and old school" doesn't mean you can't like him. Yah Nas, Wu-tang, Old Dre/Snoop, Biggie etc. etc. are all sick. That still doesn't mean you can't appreciate Wayne actually having better rap than most of the shit on the radio today.
But what do I care. I don't give a fuck what you guys listen to and will go back to enjoying my Streetlight Manifesto, Passion Pit, and Animal Collective.
PS. You aren't thug because you listen to Old School rap and also aren't hardcore because you hate on Lil' Wayne. Listen to No Ceilings mixtape if you want some sick ass music.
