Drake
JID
Kendrick

Drake, Kendrick, Thug are his top 3 children imo

Rashad one of my favorites though.

kanye avys excluded from this convo

Mix of both but cited the most matters more

Where's Kanye in my avi

Ok I feel it

But let's say (and this ISN'T about Kanye or Wayne) everybody cites Rapper A as an influence cause Rapper A is so respected but nobody actually sounds like Rapper A...whereas nobody cites Rapper D as an influence but everybody sounds like Rapper D

What would you say about this situation?

i never understood the thug/wayne comparison i know thug calls wayne his fav rapper + the whole barter/carter album name s*** but musically they dont even sound the same. kendrick i could see since he sounded like a diet wayne in his earlier projects

Well this doesnt exist so idk what to say

Thug was openly a diet Wayne too

Damn straight.

When it comes to rappers style and delivery, Wayne may have the edge (not by a lot, but considerable) but Kanye has a greater impact and influence outside of rap music and music in general.

So this question of influence is actually harder to measure between the two. They're both massively influential and i would argue more influential than all of their peers (Eminem, T.I. The Game). It's something to be proud of if you're a fan of either (or both!).

period

thugs voice is to the point I literally couldn’t you tell the difference sometimes

it's still a kanye avi lol

This thread gets made for either side legit every 2 weeks

The other day that ynw Melly song that samples the Akon & nelly joint camr on Spotify shuffle & I finally understood how deep the Wayne influence was

Dude was literally using 09 Wayne flow bar for bar

Lsn to his verse on her it’ll make sense

Mind u this is the first time in hip hop history any rapper used that thick of a southern slur on tracks

that 08-09 run inspired so many careers directly and indirectly

alot of it is thru thug and uzi tho

Kanye slander on a Kanye site. Y’all some sad haters
