Those cities are like 90% white though. Rednecks aren't listening to Lil Baby

Wayne's prime run technically started with C2 and The Dedication when he called himself the Best Rapper Alive and he replaced G Unit as the mixtape king. Then he started to become the feature king in 06.

07/08 was a continuation of that and 09-11 was when the quality dipped but he was still the hottest rapper with even his mid albums selling like hotcakes and C4 doing damn near a mil fw like C3.

I get what you're saying. Baby's really hot rn and doing a ton of features but Wayne just had all bases covered: the rap world, the mixtape world, the pop world, helping Drake/Nicki/Tyga blow and expanding YM, etc.

And this isn't even touching on his influence. Wayne's probably a top 3 most influential rapper of all time. Meanwhile, even Carti's more influential than Baby.

But I get it. There's some similarities.

Idk where y’all from but Baby got a hold on the streets that only true goats has had(Wayne, Drake, 50).

Idk if he should be doing stadiums right now but he’s close

An empty venue is always a bad look, it's better to have small venues crowded

The promotors or label should've had some insight in how much tickets they could pull, nobody is booking stadiums just cause "what if we sell it out"

I think it means more white people know him than lil baby

Rockstar alone will let him do cities that don't know a lil baby exists

Well, Kanye knows better. He's never booked stadiums for a tour because he knows he can't sell them out.

To who? Forum nerds? It only matters if they aren't turning a profit. Stadium rent is likely low right now. He's selling more tickets than he would at a smaller venue.

Askren vs Paul was in a 71k capacity stadium, and they didn't sell a single ticket.
