Time Magazine Says Lil Wayne Is Like Bob Dylan, Says He Is the "Undisputed Champ"

    In the new issue of Time Magazine with Mark Twain on the cover, there is a full-page article on Lil Wayne. The article called "The Best Rapper Alive" chronicles Weezy's life, talks about his recent crazy sales of his new album Tha Carter III, plus gives a inside look into how Lil Wayne plans and carries out releasing music. The article goes on to compare Lil Wayne to Bob Dylan twice saying his voice is "like Redd Foxx covering Bob Dylan"  and says Lil Wayne's creativity and level of music out put is like Dylans. Finishing up the article, it says "Wayne claims his rhymes are stream of consciousness, but even if they aren't, they sound as though they're hitting the air for the first time, unfolding with an electricity that's - forbid the sacrilege - Dylanesque."

    Calling Lil Wayne "the undisputed champ," it quotes three of the Weezy's songs, including "Dr. Carter," "Don'tGetIt" and "Phone Home" as examples. The issue is on newsstands now.
