Any emcee looking for a model of success need not look further than Lil Wayne. Accordingly, 2 Chainz made sure he paid attention to the Young Money head’s advice.
“The thing behind me and Wayne was that he always believed in me as a musician, as well as being a cool dude,” said 2 Chainz of Weezy in an interview with AlLindstrom.com.
“And everybody thought he was the illest nigga in the world. So that’s where my confidence kinda started. Just derived from him. It’s like, ‘everybody fucks with you, and you fuck with me!’ So that’s where our relationship came in.”
2 Chainz revealed the effect of Wayne’s advice. “He used to say encouraging things that I’m sure another rapper, [if] that didn’t get that, they’d start figuring something else out.”
“Me even being around him, seeing what they have, seeing the things you can get from puttin’ words together, it kinda kept me inspired.”

BIRDMAN AND WAYNE ALWAYS SUPPORTED 2 CHAINS
Because he’s their buttbuddy
dude give up, you’ve completely blown your credibility here.
LOL ofc his inspiration is Wayne,
THE NIGGA FUKIN TRIES TO LOOK LIKE HIM,
NOTHING CHANGES = BOTH UGLY AS NIGGAS
JAY Z KILL THESE BITCHES FOR US.
I excused your last few comments. But no. Get your own name you flaming Faggot. Be original.
HA! Now I know you aint God bc of that language…Now you be original…
A wack nigga cosigning another wack nigga. Shocker. Everything Lil Wayne has released since Tha Carter 3 has been hot garbage and 2Chainz has always been wack since his Tity Boi days.
Nigga y in the fuck r u fucking hating on these niggas.
for real nigga, you jackin off in ur moms basement to some pinky porn. YOU DONT KNOW SHIT BOUT SHIT. Shut you’re faggot ass mouth.
^^^^^ five bucks these guys are the same guy
ya i bet it is.
thats a weird way to make yourself feel validated.
that, along with fuckin’ Birdman being an inspiration(of all people…) it’s only a matter of time until YMCMB picks him up
niggas even look like each other
I should have expected a bitch being influenced by another bitch. I mean, look at this fake, punk, chump, cunt, retarted, imbecile fucker picture, bitch looks just like Gayne!!!
It’s a shame. Because of that bitch, nowadays any nigga with dreads is called Lil Wayne. But I have to rob, stab, rape, shoot, cut, burn, flense, bomb, and hang anybody that compares me to that flaming faggot.
Bitch, u really aint shit tho. I wish I knew u in person, I would nickname u Lil Wayne.
NIGGA U JUST ACTING AND I’M JUST LAUGHING LIKE HA HA HA WATCH FLY RIGHT BY YO ASS MOTHAFUCKA U SO LAME I’M LIKE NA NA NA LAUGHIN AT YO BITCH ASS LIKE HA HA HA
Garbage begets garbage
No wonder he sucks.
oh a shitty rapper getting inspiration from another shitty rapper how great!
fuck you faggot hipster ass nigga. You aint shit
boy ur a hipster …only hipsters listen to those faggots Wayne,2 Chainz etc
if the headline of this is true ,,the game is more then fucked up
SMFH ..Where do i begin…HIP HOP IS DEAD..until WUTANG drops another double cd..ATLEAST we have NAS droppin soon..Thank god these southern bamas cant RAP..if this was slavery then yeah they superstars..cuz they just being slaves..
Lmaoo Wu aint saving SHITT you hear 8 diagrams? Only Wu member still consistent with it is Ghostface he never had a wack album
Now now…true, Ghost has had consistent dope albums, but c’mon man, that Wizard Of Poetry In Emerald City almost lost me. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a HUGE Wu head, but for real, a lot of cats used to tell me to give it up, and that album damn near made me do so. The Wu can make an album, one of great substance. But I’ll be real, this day in age with RZA’s progression in producing, the only way we can get that dusty 36 chamber sound is to outsource to other producers. And it won’t appeal to the younger fans with whom don’t, and don’t get me wrong, don’t appreciate a full joint with straight bars. I have yet to hear a song that can topple Triumph to this day, no hook, 10 personalities (how dope would it be if Dirty had at least 16 bars on that???)…But I digress…
Sure 2 Chainz states Wayne as an inspiration. Who knows, maybe there is a very supportive side that a few personal cats have experienced with him. We can’t blast him. Not a huge YM fan, but you can’t knock a dude for giving props to where props is due…
Hip-Hop isn’t dead–but the mainstream a bunch of zombies. Go listen to Hopsin, Slaughterhouse, Schoolboy Q, Papoose, Tech N9ne–you’ll see it’s not dead. There are a lot more talented artists out there, but you have to look past what is on MTV & the radio.
Im sick of everyone claiming Lil’ Wayne is the best of all time. grow a pair and stop supporting this wannabe rock coke head.
…No Body Said That GTFOH
Everybody acting like wayne has been garbage since he started rapping. Wayne was one of the best rappers. His old shits were crazy but dude just got lazy. Y’all need to understand music is business and everybody is in for the money. Cousious rappers dont sell CDs so why would he want to be one and starve himself. I agree wayne hasn’t made anything worth listening since Carter 3 but don’t sleep on him. He still spits good verses every now and then.
Did everyone forget about Duffle Bag Boy? Classic. Some one will say I’m wrong though, fuck it.
that was when wayne was half-decent
im the guy thats gonna say ur wrong. duffle boy was not classic. shook ones is classic, ambitions as a ridah is classic, follow the leader is classic. duffle bag boy is forgettable
I ho
I feel sorry for this clown to believe in Wayne that much, Wayne sucks a Godzilla’s dick his music is pure garbage he looks gay and sounds gay… Next time this clown is gonna say wacka flocka and soulja boy are like Biggie n Pac… Shame.
suck a dick bitch. you gay
no, no i agree with the 1st comment
fuck all you fake hipster ass niggas sayin hip hop dead. The past aint comin back, get your nappy ass head out ur ass. It’s niggas like 2 Chainz and Wayne keepin this shit real. Hip hop is alive and well. It’s a new era faggots quit bitchin. If u want shit to be how it use to be listen to ur old cassets and jack of to them, fuck you haters. suck a dick and choke on that shit. 2 CHAIIIIIIINZ
faggot
lol @ the first comment…Lil Wayne real?? go to a hood and scream Lil Wayne’s real see what happens…Clown ass muthafuckas everywere
Hip hop is dead. Have you seen the sales chart the last decade.
Far as listening to old music. That’s what most are already doing.
pussy
Hip-Hop ain’t dead, But Wayne is washed up & 2Chainz is garbage. Hip-Hop lives underground (mostly), I respect a couple mainstream artists.
real nigga represent
fuck u and wayne..i can’t believe people listen to these faggot for music
2 chainz is a very smart rapper, hes doin wat wayne did in 07. gettin on everyones album and remix. thats probably the reason for his popularity right now.
anyone agree?
noo hes doin what 50 did in 02.
And he thinks we care because?
I don’t get today’s version of the game. You had to actually be nice before and not just nice but original. I salute anybody gettin’ to the money but real talk this shit should still be about lyrics..line for line.
no shit, trash respects, trash.
that doesnt surprise me. 2chains nor wayne have done shit i listen to
Wht he really mean to say is “I pretty much bit lil waynes swag n style all the way thru the industry an thts y im who i am, because I am him”
A bitch getting influenced by another bitch. Nothing new in that.
So THAT’S why you suck so much
LOL!
Wayne is changing lives. What an inspiration to the world. Maybe him and the Pope should start hanging out, compare notes, see who has the bigger influence.
the chorus on the no lie song is fucking horrible…good job at a first major single titty…
**GASP** Lil Wayne inspiring “2 Chainz”…I’m shocked!
Ignorance inspired by ignorance
