Signed to Cash [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Money Records at only nine years old, Lil Wayne has put in years of hard work in the industry – [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] more than some rappers can imagine. In addition to his impressive work experience, his unwavering work ethic and his creativity are what set him apart [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] from other hip hop artists. Some of the songs on Tha Carter IV border on bizarre, but Lil Wayne always manages to make even [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the strangest songs accessible. Perhaps this eccentricity is what helped him sell nearly a million [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] copies of his third number one album in its first [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] week. Or, it could be [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] his label's unique understanding that a little bit of hype goes a long way in the hip hop world. While Kanye and Jay-Z successfully prevented an album leak in anticipation of Watch the Throne, Lil Wayne wasn't as careful; and, as it turns out, they didn't need to be. Despite being leaked five days early, Tha Carter IV went on to set iTunes sales records among other achievements.
This summer hosted a highly anticipated hip hop album-release showdown: Lil Wayne versus Kanye West and Jay-Z. In August, Kanye and Jay-Z released a collaborative project they called Watch the Throne, and a month later, self-proclaimed "best rapper alive," Lil Wayne, dropped the fourth installment in his The Carter series. If his declared title wasn't justified before, it is now. Selling a staggering 940,000 copies in its [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] first week, Tha [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Carter IV sold more than twice as many albums as [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the hip hop heavyweight [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] pair. Many Kanye and Jay-Z loyalists are wondering what factors contributed to Weezy's comparative success. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] And, now that he has [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] overthrown the Throne, what does this mean for ? ??
Earlier this year, Forbes' list of "Cash Kings" was released with the Throne pair placing above Lil Wayne – was number one, Kanye placed at number [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] three, and Weezy came in at number four. With Tha Carter IV selling so many copies in its first week, however, it appears as though Lil Wayne is giving the duo a run for their money. Nobody knows for sure if it will be enough to move him up the rankings as far as Forbes is concerned, but one thing is for sure: Lil Wayne doesn't need a seat [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] on any throne to prove that he is hip hop royalty.
