    I could totally see another Drake or Nicki collab hit soon

    Nicki has Everybody, FTCU and Needle all building rn. One of them will blow to a degree

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

    The biggest. Underground. Killing every feature. Hottest mixtapes and hottest albums.

    All his mixtape songs were played at the bars, clubs and radio, as if they were actual commercial releases.

    Drought 3 was like an album.

    Craziest peak I’ve ever seen from a rapper.

    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

    genuinely feel like him and Playboi Carti would make one of those earworm hit songs that you hear whenever you go outside for like 6 months

    I don't think Wayne has anything to prove anymore and it reflects in his music. he could probably make one if he tried.

  • I want him to have another hit, but I don’t think he needs it. I’d rather have a high-quality album with one producer

    But I definitely think he’s capable. I feel like the label creates the hits anyway

    Hits do not exist anymore so no.

  • Dec 28, 2023

    With a major feature, he probably could.

    It'll be very tough for him to get a big hit where he's actually the main draw though.

    They do. It's just Tik Tok's doing 80% of the time now lol

    Hear me out, he should link up with Metro

    I wouldn’t oppose. Let them lock in for a period

    True.

    There are so many streaming hits that never get super popular on billboard.

    Making a hit isn't about ability it's about how hot you are. Wayne is a previous generation artist so the general crowd isn't checking for his stuff

    you’re not wrong i think it’s a combination

  • not by himself

    you think he was even bigger before C3 than during and after 2008?

    i feel like Wayne on a rage beat sounds better on paper than in actuality to say the very least

    All depends on the voice. If he comes with his old man froggy tired voice it won’t work.

    despite wayne doing a lot of inventive things with his voice i think at heart he’s a classic rapper who sounds best on old style beats

    When I heard you’re married starts blowing up on TikTok he’ll have another one with that

    So if he 100% guns for a mainstream sounding record?

    Yeah I’m thinking something positive or motivational that hits the kids and grandparents. Long shot but the only way I could see it happening.

    And that is exactly what happened with Kant Nobody. It just sounded fresh and the replay value was def there.

    No about the same but he was bigger commercially after Carter 3.

    But I’m just speaking at a street level. That s*** was so crazy. I was in Philly though so it may be different. Bars. Clubs. Radio. Cars. iPods. Wayne was everywhere

    Would have been a great Carter 6 single.
