Wayne's older stuff is great. There is a reason all the greats respect him, & Jay-Z passed the torch to him. If you haven't heard mixtape Weezy you're missing out on epicness. Wayne's best work I'd check out in no order -

Carter III Sessions

Carter II

Da Drought 3

Dedication 2

No Ceilings

^^ This.

Lil' Wayne hasn't been nearly as good since he has went full mainstream but in his prime? He was terrific. Really being underrated in this thread. The fact is, if you want to be successful, you have to adjust your music to fit in what the mainstream wants to hear. Just look at Immortal Technique. They are amazing lyricists yet will never hit mainstream because they aren't going to adjust their style. Or look at Tyler The Creator. Terrific artist IMO (a lot of people will disagree on that because of what he says in his lyrics). But while he is fairly well known, he isn't going to hear his style of music on the radio anytime soon.

Just a mini rant. Lil Wayne is a very talented artist who is also extremely intelligent (seriously - dude was a genius in school) and knew he had to adjust to be as successful as he has been.

I've never been a big Wayne fan. Even back in his hot boy days, I always liked the other members better. I really stopped listening to him after the Carter 2.

Anyways, he said he was going for the Heat and that he hopes they beat the dog sh*t out of the thunder. Dudes really mad the thunder org didn't treat his ass like royalty. B*tchass

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
