Luda apparently disses Drake and Big Sean because Drake basically said in a interview he thought the way Luda used the pause punchline flow was wack and Big Sean wasn't a fan of it either and of course those two get credited with creating it but apparently Luda was using it back when he was like 12 years old and in the history lesson interlude points out that other rappers such as Biggie, Cam and others used the style so that is what that track is about in case you guys didn't already know. Luda pretty much kills them on this and I' am actually a fan of Big Sean. Feel like more battling and dissing needs to be done in this day and age where everybody wants to be a fan of everybody.

Tech N9ne is a beast, I love how he can fit in CHA in the middle of his rapping... he is legendary!

Listen to this one and love it:

I posted that track on page 9

But I can say that I'm definitely not a fan of all rappers. I say Lil Wayne is vastly overrated and can't stand to hear any of his crap.

I will say... Tech N9ne's Trauma track... is hard hittin.

Sorry about that bro, I didn't read Page 9.

I think LiL Wayne isn't calling himself a rapper anymore since he admitted to the public that he couldn't rap.

Who sold 972,000 copies the first week? Lil Wayne.

Who's projected to sell 725,000 copies the first week? Drake.

YMCMB.

Carter 4 pretty much bored me but Drake's album was actually pretty good and better than his first one.

 

[Slim]

Figured I'd draw you out of the closet with that comment Jay.

Lil Wayne still SUCKS! He has his followers that are going to buy whatever crap he puts out. The Carter IV sucked. I mean Interlude was the best track on there and it didn't even feature him... featured Tech N9ne. Come on now.

And Drake? The guy is more overrated . man he so overrated I can't even think of something to compare him to... And thats bad.

Opinions are being stated here, gentlemen. Except my last post, those were factual numbers that proves there are hundreds of thousands Americans that are willing and able to purchase CDs of YMCMB. Plus theres countless more that know how to download it illegally. Truth is, money talks. Always.

Just cause they sell a lot don't mean that equals the album is great. Vanilla Ice's 1st album sold 15 million didn't mean he was the best rapper or that album was great. Sales pretty much just reflect how well it was marketed, momentum, strong fan base and status which Wayne and that label seem to have all those things.
