Lil Wayne/YMMV


 * Complaining about Music You Don't Listen To: A common target of this trope. Ironically, he is one of the rappers most liked by critics who actually listen to rap.
 * Crowning Moment of Funny: The intro to "A Milli". It starts with some sparkly synths and cheesy orchestral bombast, before Wayne's croaky voice shouts "YOUNG MONEY!" A super-sparse, raw beat drops and the rest is rap history.
 * After Drake sprained his knee at a concert, Wayne came back onstage and quipped: "This nigga really got a bad leg! I thought that shit was only on the TV show!" This would overlap with Harsher in Hindsight, but fortunately Drake made a full recovery.
 * Growing the Beard: Somewhere around 2004-2005, his rhyming improved markedly.
 * Ho Yay: With Zac Efron.
 * Much, much more pronounced with Birdman. Case in point: "the kiss".
 * Internet Backdraft: Claim that Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive, and you will get hatred from pretty much any other rap fan whose favorite rapper is not Lil Wayne.
 * Just Here for Godzilla: Having him do a verse or the hook on a song can result in this. Most notably Playaz Circle's "Duffle Bag Boy" which has what might just be his best hook ever and terrible, terrible verses from the main group.
 * The Scrappy: Within Young Money, Gudda Gudda is considered this because of his lack of a flow and over reliance on half rhymes ("She don't even wonder/She know she bad/And I got her/Grocery bag")
 * Sequelitis: Tha Carter IV has received a lukewarm reception as compared to the previous Carter albums.
 * Tear Jerker: "Get Over". "Tie My Hands".
