They have the same style just like Wayne had gillie the kid style back in the day. My word drake write for Wayne he even spat one of drakes verses at the vma’s.

And to the people who are gonna try to prove me wrong have a decent argument. To the other idiots who defend Wayne like their his lawyer, doing lifetime pro bono cases. Damn his dick must me good for ya to be riding it like that.

for number 3,

the reason why i think drake doesnt write for wayne is because if you think about it, wayne says some weird crazy shit, and raps different than other people. drakes flow is clean and he rhymes different than wayne. and its obvious wayne used drakes verse to promote drake, he shot out his name at the end

lol sdot u clearly just came on here just cuz Lil Wayne’s name is on the title…Did u even listen to the video??? He called Wayne his mentor and learns shit from him. As far as the VMA’s…dude…look that performance on youtube and look at the end of that performance..DOES HE NOT SHOUT OUT DRAKE??? and again…Wayne made it clear that it was Drakes verse he spat at the end of that performance in an interview that followed…its called promoting ur artist…them two will make good music cuz both have lyrics people never heard of before and they have the ability to work together and feed off each others ideas….Groups do that shit all the time….get ya facts straight homie.

Drake da truth…will do better than Asher Roth lol

lol who called jay-z a swagger jacker for doing that??? i know i clearly said that u cant get on Wayne for reciting a verse from Drake(for promotion) when people’s favorite rappers have done the same shit..example..Jay-Z…he recited bigs rhymes as a sign of respect…same shit, cancels the argument.

I love how recently he been saying “nah I dont write for Wayne”

but if yall remember, when he did he first interviews, it was “well me and Wayne help each other in the studio” and shit

Conclusion: Im pretty sure he wrote a couple verses for Wayne. My opinion.

wtf. everybody wants to believe wayne has a ghost writer SO BAD, when the answer is clearly in front of your face. All what he said right now was real. it wasn’t staged people.

get over it. he doesn’t write for wayne. I know you can’t believe he’s advanced from “wobbly wobbly”, to a verse like the one he did on “Successful”, but he has. The man’s 26 goin on 27, been in the game for almost 15 years, been rapping for almost 19 years, and you think a 22 year old, new comer is writing for him.

Both are dope. Stop the online rumors

HE DEFINITELY ASSISTS LIL WAYNE WITH HIS LYRICS,WHICH IS GREAT BECAUSE IF YOU REMEMBER CORRECTLY,LIL WAYNE AND THE HOT BOYS WERE SOME OF THE WACKEST RAPPERS IN THE GAME A FEW YEARS AGO.

I dont understand why drake is putting up such a front for lil wayne.

Its not like wayne sits for 15 min. and “one take” every verse.

He punches in. freestyles 4 bars or so, fucks up, and starts were he left off.

This no pen thing is really gettin on mii nerve. niccaz is not gifted.

YOU SAID NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH “OMEGA BLAZE”.
But let me put my two cents in. [ lol ] To “MV”: Drake is not actually a new comer; he been in the game for nearly three years. And even if he was, do you think it would matter? I know there’s no longevity in that but im just saying. And to “drew”: when rappers ghost write do you possibly believe that they’ll write a verse similar to there craft? Dont you think that’ll be noticable.? Me, personally, im not saying Wayne has a writer. If he do, he just do vice-versa. It really doesn’t matter because whatever he puts out, ignorant fans will like it and will continually defend his every bar. Im an occasional Wayne fan. He’s okay sometimes; I just believe his best work was during the “Squad Up” thru “Carter II” period. All the singing and rock shit are just unnecessary extra bull if you ask me.

I CO-SIGN that real-Oak. But i would also add Dedication 1, drought 3 & The Drought is Over 1-4. He’s rhymes were cool cuz his imagery was creative & different then how rappers were spittin. A simple ex.) I DONT JUMP ON A TRACK I POLE VAULT. it was different how niggas was spittin it but after a while those type of rhymes are just got to nursery/simple. ESPECIALLY when niggas start comparing him Greats/Nice MCs & saying he BEST RAPPER ALIVE. If he get back 2 that Pre-Carter III & auto-tune shit i’ll FucK w/ his shit cuz his Flow was crazy then.

Sdot as long as peeps like you are online working pro bono for the damn prosecutor, trying to build a damn case against him, you will find peeps like myself here to set the record straight. It’s called being a fan, not a lawyer. Unfortunately this web is like a court room and anything that bit@h azz haters say, can and will be used against Wayne, so we have to defend him.

He’s been in the game since he was 12 and you are on here talking about one damn verse he was spitting at the vma, wtf??? Even if it was Drakes verse, what exactly is your point? Can you NOT see how hard he works?? Do you not know how many damn verses Wayne has spit over the years?? I mean seriously, this hater, snitch, house nigga act is played out. Stop trying to disect his every move and find fault, and just be happpy he’s a young black man making legit money.

Let me put it to you this way Lil Wayne wrote his first rap at 9 recorded his first song at 11 dropped his first album at 12 and ever since then has been perfecting and changing his style. Also the guy goes to the studio 7 DAYS A WEEK for between 8-19 hours sometimes. EVERY FUCKING DAY ya dig. Now come on man if you did something that often that much for that long you mean to tell me your still going to need a sheet of paper to do that shit lol.

I’m a venereal disease like a menstrual bleed…
Threw the pencil and leak on the sheet of the tablet in my mind,
Cause I don’t write shit cause I ain’t got time,
Cause my seconds, minutes, hours go to the al mighty dollar,
And the al mighty power of dat chit cha cha cha chopper,
Sister, Brother, Son, Daughter, Father motha fuck a copper,
Got da Maserati dancin on the bridge pussy poppin,
Tell the coppers… hahahaha you can’t catch em, you can’t stop em,

You can’t man em then you mop em,
You can’t stand em then you drop em,
You drop em cause we pop em like Orville Redenbacher,

Check out it out..All I gotta say is ALL THE BEST RAPPERS WHERE IN FREESTYLE BATTLES: Jay-Z, LL Cool J, Tupac, Biggie, Rakim, KRS ONE, Busta, Eminem, 50 Cent. Lil Wayne shy away from 50 when he was going at him and then Wayne goina spit some Jay-Z shit about the 50 Cent and 2 Quarters. I think Drake wrote some bars for Wayne. How did dude come out the woodwork in 05′ with all these rhymes? He spits fire but spit a diss freestyle and dont shy away like a btch period.

For ppl that hate.. Wayne do his thing drake aint write shit 4 em. As a matter a fact drake and wayne met not too long ago and wayne been dropping bombs be4 drake. Ppl can’t get over wayne spitting fire. Wayne got his own style of rappin he spit some stupid ass shit that leaves ppl amazed. And no not talking about the shit they play on the radio he has more than 700 songs and a good variety of em are good And no I aint dick riding. If some1 spit fire ima listen to em no matter if any1 think they wack. He come out with a lot of songs and sometimes he do it daily if not 3 or more a week that are fire. Who else do that? No1. Most rappers just hop on shit wen a album come@ weezy do it everyday 24-7..8 9 10
