Cosign this... I used to listen to Wayne all the damn time from 04-08. All the music he's been comin' out wit' now is pure unadulterated shit.

I don't think they had the singles success, the touring, and two artists that they signed go platinum within 1 year.

I think Nelly could compete with Singles...Hot In Heerre and that Kelly Rowland Song was everywhere...

In terms of Sales Em got him with Eminem Show and 8 Mile Soundtrack...had the # 1 song, album and movie in the US at the same time. Em did sign 50 in 02 who sold mad records with his debut in early 03. Obie went Gold...

In Terms of singles and tours ur right.

too bad baby prolly get 75% of his check

lol @ Wayne being the Manny Pacquiao of the Rap game

Em and Nellys singles reached top 10 consistantly that year, Em signed 50 cent that year who sold 7 mill on Get Rich Or Die Tryin, signed Obie Trice who sold a mill on Cheers, and Eminem done the anger managment tour which was bigger as far as crowd than any rapper has done.

Wayne doesnt have a oscar though. Thats a real challenge to accomplish

Em & Nelly didn't have 10 different Gold and Platinum singles and album in 2003 like Wayne did in 2011.

Wayne was fresh off almost a year in prison and took over the game.

Lose Yourself went number for the longest in history in 02 and the Anger Managment tour. Look at Waynes Singles and Look at Em's and you will see Em's charted higher.

This is why its baffling that MTV put Wayne at #5!!! At worst he shouldve been #2

Getwitcha

 

[stealthbomber]

sure he gets those plaques cuz he's popular but that doesn't mean he makes quality music. lil wayne has become a mainstream icon for hip hop, he gets all the best beats and even if his verses aren't good its gonna sell

 

[Turfaholic]

@Already Home.

thats my point. Rappers when Grammys every year. How often are they winning Oscars.

Put up the numbers for Tupac 1996 then.

Tupac might have killed it with music/movies but he didn't do shit on the business end as a CEO like Wayne did.

Waynes label dominated 2011 his artists are everywhere across all demographics and he just reached 2 million today for C4 so anybody saying Birdman bought half of em he still got a Milli.
