Social media wasn't as heavy during Wayne's run.

True there was no Twitter or IG but MySpace and Facebook were huge and the traffic was concentrated since they were the only outlets. Wayne definitely benefited from social media.

MySpace and Facebook were big back then, but in no way does it compare to what social media is today.

At all
FB, IG, SC keeps the artist in your face at all times
People like plies and dj Khaled are more famous now (outside of hiphop) because of social media

No one is saying social media then is what it is now. But it was definitely a big factor for a massive overlapping artist like Wayne. Wayne benefited from social media, someone like Gucci in that time didn't as much.

Wayne did not benefit from social media...
Atleast not the Hot Boyz era, Block is Hot, Lights Out, 500 Degreez, Squad Up series, Father Like Son, Carter I, II or III Lil' Wayne...

Idk about "benefit" but I will admit I had a lil Wayne bape MySpace background in '06 
......and my display name was something like "I'm a fly young man, Check my wingspan" .
Good times. MySpace era got me a lot of yambs. Word to Can I borrow you on NT.
I'm sure Future has a dusty MySpace page somewhere online, with some hilarious ratchett pictures....and unrefined music.

This. I mean I love Future but Jeezy's Hustlers Ambition and The Inspiration Intro >>

I'd go with Trap Ns over Hustler's Ambition. Incredible song, but it doesn't make you regretful that you brushed your teeth and forgot to grab your strap.

Of course Hot Boyz era Wayne didn't benefit from social media.
Carter era Wayne certainly did.
unless we're going to just pretend no rappers benefited from social media period circa 06-08.
