Lil Wayne is still one of the best, even though he's fairly new compared to some of the other guys (Dr.Dre, Enimem, 50, Weezy, Jeezy)
I don't listen to rap much either, i usually listen to techno (it's what chicks go for

)
But Lil Wayne has some nice tunes, when he does a song on his own, it's not that good, but when it's with another good rapper, the song is good
I hate when he sings with his dad (birdman), they go all gangminded
Anyways, i'd still give lil wayne respect. but my fav, gutta stick with Dr.Dre!
