Identity Crisis.

I've been listening to Lil Wayne recently.

A few blogs I read mentioned Lil Wayne in them over the last year or so, he seems to be the punk-rockers choice when it comes to rap so I went ahead and downloaded the Carter 1, 2 and 3. Yeah, I didn't pay for them, whatever. Lil Wayne is always banging on about being a "cash money millionaire" and I figure neither him nor "Cash Money Records" label or Apple corps needed my money, considering what I had heard of him wasn't all that great. I have a fairly solid track record of buying albums I download and like, so whatever. I'll do what I want.

I don't really like it. Money saved! It's listenable, but I'm not sure he is the greatest ever, as he often professes. I'm not sure he'd even get into my top 20 rappers list (if I had one). One thing I noticed though, was that Lil Wayne seems to have an identity problem, to such an extent that he put out a song called "I'm me", which should definitely reduce the amount of people who claim he is anything other than himself. I'm not sure who those people would be, google had no answers when I searched for "people who claim Lil Wayne is anything other than himself and/or Lil Wayne"

Here's a non-comprehensive list of things Lil Wayne has himself claimed to be:

I'm a monster
I'm a venereal disease like a menstrual bleed. (personal favourite)
I'm A Beast
I'm DBoy
I'm a Rottweiler

He is a diseased rottweiler-beast who Dboys part-time at the monster nightclub, or something. Deconstructing rap lyrics is pretty pointless really isn't it? I don't even know why I typed this. Go listen to Kano if you want some rap, he's awesome. Failing that:
