There is a huge difference between most popular and best rapper/lyricist.
Most "rap experts" -whoever that may be would laugh at someone including Lil Wayne in their "top rappers of all time" list.
Wayne's lyrics are sick though.
"I'm Me" is one of my favorite songs and the lyrics are so simple but so sick.
The first song on Tha Carter 3 "3 Peat" is amazing.
"**** get on my level you cant get on my level
You would need a spaceshuttle or a ladder thats forever
However im better if now than never
Dont you ever fix ya lips unless you bout to suck my ****
***** swallow my words taste my thoughts
And if its too nasty spit it back at me
Two more inches i'd been in that casket
According to the doctor i could of died in traffic
Bounce right back on them ******* like Magic
Abra-cadabra im up like Viagra
I just do this **** for my click like Adam Sandler
I control hip-hop and ima keep it on my channel "
