I've listened to all of the Carter albums, multiple mixtapes and a ton of other random tracks due to my friends. The Carter II was decent. Being commercial isn't what kills Lil Wayne, it's that he's an average lyricist who raps over annoying or generic beats and gets by because he has "swagger" than white teenage girls like - hence his sales.

And when millions blindly say he's the best rapper alive (because he says so) it's beyond absurd, given that most of them have never even heard of guys like Pharoahe Monch, Common, Canibus, etc... His "competition" in their eyes are the likes of Drake, Wiz Khalifa, Kanye, modern Jay-Z, etc...

It's like if millions of casual SC2 fans were to claim Idra is the best player in the world when they don't know who Nestea, MC, MVP, etc are.
