Lil Wayne’s Top 5 Rappers: Jay-Z, Missy Elliott, Eminem, The Notorious B.I.G., and Drake – Where’s Kendrick Lamar?
Lil Wayne’s Top 5 Rappers List Sparks Debate
Lil Wayne has made headlines once again, this time for sharing his top five rappers list in a recent interview. The iconic rapper named Jay-Z, Missy Elliott, Eminem, The Notorious B.I.G., and Drake as his top picks, leaving out Kendrick Lamar. This exclusion has sparked a debate among fans and critics alike.
Given Lil Wayne’s close relationship with Drake, it’s no surprise that the Canadian rapper made the list. Wayne has been a mentor and friend to Drake throughout his career, so including him in his top five seems like a natural choice. However, the omission of Kendrick Lamar, who has been hailed as one of the greatest rappers of his generation, has raised eyebrows.
The beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar has been a hot topic in the hip-hop community for years, with both artists taking shots at each other in their music. Kendrick even name-dropped Lil Wayne in one of his songs, referencing a controversial incident involving Drake and Wayne’s girlfriend. Despite this, Lil Wayne seems unfazed by the drama and has chosen to leave Kendrick off his list.
Fans have been quick to weigh in on Lil Wayne’s choices, with some praising his loyalty to Drake and others questioning his decision to exclude Kendrick. Regardless of where you stand on the issue, one thing is clear: Lil Wayne’s top five rappers list has reignited the debate over who truly deserves a spot among the greatest of all time.
