Someone asked this question before and I think they have a point. I like odb and hate lil wayne but I'm playing devil's advocate here. Why exactly is odb any better than lil wayne? They are both subpar rappers and half the stuff they say makes no sense.

ODB is the shytnuff said
ReplyDeletebecause their names are representative of their manhood
ReplyDeletecuz....ODB was the Lil Wayne of ur generation....Lil Wayne is the ODB of this 1, u guys liked ODB then, they like Wayne now....its just the cycle my friendBUT..BUT there is a difference.The difference is, respect in the industry. And, believe it or not, Wayne is respected by pretty much everyone in the mainstream industry, more than i believe ODB was back in the 90's.
ReplyDeleteBecause ODB was a Crazy Niggu and lil wayne is a GAY niggu.
ReplyDeletesimple ODB was a member of the notorious Wu-Tang Clan, killah beez, etc
ReplyDeletelmao...its true half the words that come out both their mouths have no meaning.but crazy bums(ODB) are more funny than crazy crack heads(Wayne)
ReplyDeletewhy simple, cuz odb can make classic hip hop like ***** please, while lil wayne make garbage *** corporate music like lollipop just to get pay
ReplyDeleteODB kept it real, he had his own style and he didn't give a f*ck about what people said. He brought that raw gritty energy to the Wu. Compare 8 Diagrams to other Wu joints, the energy is not the same
ReplyDeletecuz odb was actually grimy lil wayne has been a millionaire since he was 15 hes no hustler and now he uses auto pitch **** lil wayne odb was a shermed out thug from marcy projects dude aint rappin bullshit Source(s): oooh baby I like it raw
ReplyDeleteOldb is hotter than this wanna be thug, oldb keeps it stupid gangsta and of part of the wu and i just love this ****** music i was listening to some of his MUSIC TODAY, miss him. oldb is a legend and wayne is wack OK.
ReplyDeletebecause little wayne is a sorry piece of ****. his rhymes are whack as hell. hes basically just a black ***** *** fake gangster. wanna hear real rap go listen to talib kweli or nas. odb gets more resect because his music actually takes talent. if i saw lil waynes short 5'3 *** in person i would kick him in the mouth. he has like 4 ghostwriters and hardly writes any of his own **** Source(s): some with half a brain
ReplyDeleteIf you really think about it, it is quite simple. ODB has been part of several classic albums. 36 Chambers, in a few tracks on Liquid Swords. And he had a very strong personality. He did what he want and his music wasn't exactly cliche you know. If Lil' Wayne actually been a part of some classic albums then maybe people would respect Wayne more. But lets face it, he hasn't ever dropped anything worth a damn. Carter I and II were AVERAGE at best. Carter III was absolutely terrible.Plus... the Clan is FOREVER
ReplyDelete1st of all ODB is dead and was part of the most respected hip hop group ever assembled on Earth.........2nd is that ODB was a real cat. He was maybe crazy but he didnt change or put on a fake act for anyone, and he didnt sell out. Many people can say though that Lil Wayne has changed his style entirely for commercialness, hired ghostwriters, and gone hip-pop and possibly rock now, and he's on every other song you hear on the radio so after a while even if you like Lil Wayne you have to get at least a bit sick of him if not more.........Those are your two reasons why people would respect ODB more......R.I.P. ODB
ReplyDeleteODB was anything but a subpar rapper. He was the drunken monk, it was all part of his Wu persona and as much as might might have sounded like he didn't have a clue what he was doing, he did. ODB's style wasn't to everyone's taste and I'm not saying I'd put him on a top 10 GOAT list or anything, but he DID have skills. The difference with Wayne is that he truly believes he's the greatest. There's no character there, no persona. He's not trying to give the fans theatre in the same way that ODB did. He geniunely is just making subpar music.edit: It's not just about lyrics. ODB made better *music* than Wayne does. His delivery was miles better. Look at someone like Eazy E - nobody could say he was the greatest lyricist, but his delivery and his charisma made him an artist worth listening to. It's the same thing with Dirty.
ReplyDeleteBecause ODB had talent, was a part of one of the biggest rap groups in history, was (along with Wu Tang) at the forefront of a hip hop movement and had the respect of his peers (something you'd definitely know if you'd ever seen Method Man live).Lil Wayne on the other hand is a flash in the pan, pop-rapper who relies on a tired old voice alteration gimmick to sell records.It's chalk and cheese, mate.
ReplyDeletewell why do people who save babys from burning building get more respect than child molesters but odb was thuged out a real og who yes he did make some crazy **** (dance if you caught up in the holy ghost tranc better STOP before you kill the ants in your pants) but not all of the music he made was bullshit now not all of wayne music is bullshit (man i miss my dogs) but he only makes bullshit now so lets add up the factsodbwas arested multipul timeshad a shoot out with the cops and got offrapped with wu tangwas shotand just kept it straight gutta lil waynedid get arested but thats because he was a feind not unlike odb but odb kept it real and smoked crack while lil wayne drinks cough syrupshot himself as a kid kissed bird manand is now selling out more by making a rock albumso if you ask me odb gets more respect because he was straight up gangsta
