Eminems' prime vs Lil Wayne's prime

[Jamal_Jenkins]

First of all I just wanna start this by saying I HATE Lil Wayne with a strong passion,
but all hate aside......
Imagine if Tha Carter 3 came out in 2000 and the numbers it would have done.
If the MMLP/TES came out in 2008 what type of numbers you think it would have done?
Waynes label has 2 other successful (but also horrible) artists. Drake and Nicki Minaj.
Em's label only had 1 other extremely successful artist from 03-05 named 50 Cent and 2 other mildly succesful acts D12 (who wouldn't be shit without Em obviously) and Obie Trice.

So overall who do you think had a more successful prime?

Whether we like it or not they're both extremely popular.
Weezy's shit was bumpin on everybody's iPod and whip in 08-09.
Em was like God for white kids in 00-02

All hail the ability to lock and move threads.

word up

geno I'll give you the final say, you want this debate to happen for a little I'll move it back, otherwise it'll stay here...what's the call?

[Jamal_Jenkins]

COME ON.

Can we stop discussing Em vs. Lil Wayne?

At least put it in chit-chat, it's so annoying.

Em's albums vs. Wayne's

Carter 3 sales vs. Recovery

Now this.

It's stupid.

you know I'm tired of you guys bitching about the same thread almost as much as you guys are tired of seeing the same thread...

[DarkSideOfEm]

C'mon man! Wayne is not even close to half of Em's skills and achievements.

Wayne also admitted that he can't fuck with Em:

Eminem alone of course > Wayne

Young Money > Shady Records though, they seem to know their ways around business more

As much as I don't want to admit it, this seems to be true. I don't know how, seeing as everyone at YM seems like idiots, but they do handle business well.

#1 highest selling rapper of all time

These Wayne Vs. Shady threads are getting old, so I'mma just speak my mind real quick here.

No doubt is Eminem bigger than Lil Wayne overall, even LilWayne4Life can't say otherwise, but during the last couple years, Lil Wayne has made a huuuuge impact in the music business. He's been doin' his thing for a lot of years now, but only "recently" did he blow up like a fucking a-bomb in HipHop. Eminem, on the other hand, smashed the scene to pieces the minute he dropped SSLP, and he has managed to stay relevant and partly on top for his whole career (with Encore and Relapse as exceptions, even though they did pretty well in sales). They're both incredible artists in their own ways, but so fuckin' different, so it's impossible to compare the two fairly.

I didn't like Weezy at first, good thing I met a girl who got me into his shit, now I'm a fan and I consider him to be a really great artist. But I'm always gonna be a bigger fan of Shady than a fan of Weezy.

You don't need to state you hate Lil Wayne in every thread related to him, and there's absolutely no need to keep on making these kind of threads. People will always have different opinions and these discussions about who's the better rapper will never be settled, so let's just drop it.

I just wanted to say this, because it's been on my mind for a while now, and I find this thread to be a good thread to say it in.

Peace.

It's a fucking joke to compare their primes, we all know Weezy wins lol
