“Lil Wayne is not just the biggest rapper, Lil Wayne is the biggest pop star right now. Maybe Susan Boyle is on his level. But when you talk about music, nice times out of ten, Lil Wayne’s name is gonna come into the conversation. I love Wayne, I respect his talent. I’ve watched him grow up.”
Big Sean

Chance The Rapper
“[Working with Wayne] is the biggest accomplishment I’ve made today, because Lil Wayne is probably the biggest reason why I’m sitting here right now, rapping and doing what I do. I’m a huge Wayne fan forever.”
Busta Rhymes
“Wayne is one my biggest inspirations, because Wayne’s got a unprecedented work ethic. Wayne’s consistency is unparalleled as well. I don’t really find moments that I feel disappointed in whatever Wayne is doing. I definitely feel like he’s an alien. He doesn’t do shit that seems humane, as far as his ability. That man is one of the gifts to the game.”
Cam’ron
“Wayne’s my man. I’m proud of him, he worked hard. You know with a lot of people, Wayne’s been doing this for years. Wayne had a record deal before I had a record deal, you know what I’m saying? Even though Cash Money been our for 12, 13 years so you know, for him to come up for where he came up. I’m proud of him.”
DMX
