13 years later and Pac still has more of an influence then most of your favorite musicians today...and i say musicians not rappers....because todays new agerappers hold no relevance to life
 
Yea I knew he was bitin I just thought they were puttin gay trash rappers in the crazy house tho. Wayne aint crazy he's a druggy and you dont need to becrazy to do drugs just depressed. I swear this dude finds more ways to get lame all the time.

Not as bad as Jay-Z disgracing one of my favorite 2 Pac tracks of all-time, "Me and My Girlfriend". At the least, Jay-Z should had changed the lyricsup a bit, but instead he kept the same chorus.

yep.. it's more Marc Ecko's fault than Wayne's.

Complex is dumb.

Weezy is too, for agreeing.

Not saying I don't believe you, but do explain.
I understand if he smokes a pound to the face per day, but what do you mean?

Im glad to know there is still some niketalkers with a brain..Its obvious the cover is a recreation of the original, I mean they have the same headline"Is ...crazy"...You dudes dont think before you get on someone saying they biting
 
Oh yea . . . Got this off XXLMag.com, Wayne's talkin greasy about The Clipse

In the cover story for the December/January issue of Complex, Lil Wayne gets candid about a number of topics, including rumors of beef between him and Virginia rap group Clipse:
"I thought the whole 'Mr. Me Too' video was about me, to tell you the damn truth. They think I want to be like them. I'm on a million-dollar bus going around the world charging people from $50,000 to $150,000 for verses, and I got 77 songs in magazines and I got a billion more. Do the math; you think I'm trying to be like you? No sir."

Can't this be used an excuse for every sample made in history? In the end, it's very simple. If you're a fan of the person, you sayhe's "paying homeage", if you aren't, you'll say that he's biting. I hate Wayne, so I'ma say he's biting.... more than he canchew.. cause he ain't coming close to Pac's greatness on the best hour of his best day.

I dont understand what you dont understand not all ppl who do drugs are crazy. Is it that you dont believe Wayne does drugs? Theres a thread about himsnortin cocaine but let me say this if he is not on drugs I'll admit I'm wrong but then that makes him one of the dumbest dudes to get famous

I can understand someone saying hes paying homage...but I tend to disagree...i feel it is disrespectful to do something like this....like someone else saidWayne is nor ever will be near the calibur an artist as Tupac, hell he couldnt and shouldnt even be mentioned in the same breath...and this is coming from aone time wayne fan...big time fan, Im tired of yall dudes who think this cat is so great and this and that....half the shh this dude puts out is garbagenowadays...his lackluster verses hes selling for 150k is pathetic...i commend him for his hustle and his work ethic...that is about all i can give him rightnow...unless carter 3 comes with fire like the first carter album im done with this dude...and to be honest...its sad to know that some of you dudes reallythink Wayne had no input on this cover...you think if they asked Jay, 50 hell even kanye to do this they would? not in a million years...Wayne will do anythignto $%%%% himself to the public and its getting played out
