I know his time as a superstar was 2008-2013 (with a brief resurgence for C5) and has steadily dwindled since, but that Kat Food single that was supposed to build C6 hype flopped so badly that he put it on the leftovers tape while he keeps recording songs for the album. Thoughts?

Just seems like his ear for production and hooks isn't there anymore tbh

It’s possible. He needs a good producer and hook.

Hopefully

I mean if Drake gives him a freebie like believe me, it’ll definitely happen. We all know he’s capable of it creatively. He’s just not THAT guy anymore, so it doesn’t come organically.

I hope

I think he will with c6 tho

He needs his yes men to piss off so he can get something hot and current production/feature wise. And idk...C5 had Uproar but despite being a top 10 it was really a modest hit longterm. Fast forward 5 years and his mainstream presence is a lot lower

yeah if he link back up wit spitta or gillie (im joking but not really)

mmm maybe one or two more in him

If the labels want him to, sure

Yeah seems like he's 2013 Jay Z territory atm

Hear me out, he should link up with Metro

nah more like 2017 jay z tbh

Hopefully not

4:44 didn't have a hit. Unless you're talking about Apeshit w/ Beyonce the next year

Even though it probably won't ever happen, you know who would be a great producer for him....Hit-Boy.

The simple answer is yes

What makes you say Hit-Boy? Interesting

He could always flip one of his own hits and get by on nostalgia. Uproar was pretty much a retread anyway. Idk, get him some obvious samples and find out

Isn’t he the cutest

Soul samples and Wayne are rarely a miss. Either hit or STREETRUNNER would be amazing for Wayne.

Apeshit wasn't a hit

i just think at this point wayne can’t make a hit unless he’s attached to the right people which isn’t a knock on wayne bc he’s nearly 30 years in he just can’t make a hit line that at this point

Not a big one but it was poppin for a minute

How was Wayne perceived in 2004-2007? How big was he? I know Tha Carter II had hype.
