And I'm glad he's starting to put some of this shit to rest regarding Mood Muzik 3 and his sophomore album. Hopefully, he can get that sophomore album out so that haters can stop acting like he's wack.

If I was him though, I would stick to promoting my own career rather than commenting on anyone else's!

What's even funnier is someone trying his damn best to defend that line. LOL! Wayne makes one strong album (<i>Tha Carter II</i> = best southern rap album of 05 hands down) while blatantly biting--and he admits this himself--Hov's delivery and folks wanna go ga-ga for duke? Wayne's ok but to call him "the best rapper alive" or one of the best is reaching. There are sooooo many factors to consider when you're talking about the best: originality social impact longevity freestyle abilities battle skills concepts poetic value charisma wordplay flavor overall influence substance storytelling skills live performance, just to name a few “Young Money and we on like the television!”

And even after they asked, it's not like he sat there tearing him apart. He said what a lot of us already felt. When Wayne's on, he's nice as hell ("Ambitionz" freestyle, for instance)...but when he's off, this dude is way off (Young Money and we on like the television!). Dude even went one further and said that a lot of the not-so-nice shit that Wayne spits could probably be attributed to the grind since he's droppin' so much each month. Mad Rapper? Disgruntled Poster. Basics, forreal. I'm lookin' for Drought 3, I'll cop the next Dedication tape, and I'll more than likely fucks with the new Carter album...but Joe ain't say nothing that the rest of us weren't already thinking.

It's not like wayne...is feeding budden, putting food on his table and whatnot. Why can't ppl be free to give their own opinion on their peers strengths/weaknesses? Why's everyone in hip hop so darn scared of saying what everyone else thinks/knows? Why can't folk just be honest and sincere without trying to pull the next man down? I think that's what budden was doing, just being honest 'cos he is right..weezey has had some very questionable and not so great moments on the mic. If you don't know or accept that I question your judgment of what's dope..and not.. ian, come on man..what’s budden to be mad for?

Wayne is one of, if not <i>the</i>, biggest MC's in the game right now and no amount of hate from a mad rapper who hasn't dropped an album in 4 friggin' years is gonna change that.
