Lupe Fiasco and Lil Wayne are on the same level lyrically.

I don't see how someone can listen to Enemy Of The State (Just one example... There's still his 2 other albums, plus mixtapes) & listen to those metaphors, references, & double / triple entendres & stand by that statement.
I mean, he has a story running throughout 2 albums on a bunch of different tracks
& as I mentioned, I haven't seen Wayne drop anything lyrically that can compare to anything on Enemy Of The State (Like I said, thats only 1 example too...)

No, I'm saying that these dudes make music for different people in mind so the comparison in lyrics is inherently invalid. There's also skill and work involved in spitting for the general mainstream music listeners (which spans across more demographics and audiences).
This thread is like saying a toaster is better than a juice blender because it can make toast and the blender doesn't. It's flawed thinking...different things for different purposes.

It seems these days that if you don't use double entendres your not lyrical. I don't agree with that not saying Wayne is better than Lupe. I think Lupe is probably the best out.
I'm just saying its several ways to be a great lyricist without going so deep.

The fact that you call Lupe fraudulent like Wayne is the realest dude ever is just laughable

Tupac was the most overrated rapper, he was mediocre at best.

People here don't understand that. Ask the dude who said Tupac is an overrated rapper
I love Lupe but these dudes must not talk to people who don't, because alot of them don't care for what he spits. Lupe's lyrical complexity (here defined in this thread as using words with layered meanings) can also be his weakness when relating to some audiences - not because they aren't intelligent, but because at the end of the day they prefer artists who can express the music that they can relate to without hiding behind a quintuple entendre.
Lupe makes his music specifically for the "layered meanings" crowd. Wayne doesn't.

Even though you're obviously a troll, Lil' Wayne is one step above garbage. He can make good songs here and their, but he has one of the worst flows/deliveries in rap.

Wayne is mediocre lyrically nowadays, his flow has been what's bailing him out most of the time. Here and there he'll come through with a verse though.

Wayne might put out a better total package when it comes to music but no way is he on the same level as lupe when it comes to them lyrics
