Is Lil' Wayne The "LeBron James of Rap" ?

Denmark Vesey (Over there --> on my blogroll) calls Lil'Wayne the "Greatest Poet Alive".
In response, I stated that he isn't even the greatest rapper alive.
IMO - Rakim, Public Enemy, Gang Star and BDP were better.
But in clarifying his view, Mr Vesey says that those listed were the Oscar Robertson of rap - while Lil' Wayne is the Lebron James of rap (read: I'm hella' old.)

Oscar Robertson?
Man, at least give me Magic, Dawkins, Gervin and David Thompson...


Lebron James
6' 8" 250lbs.
Entered the big time immediately after high school.

(Thank goodness he doesn't think that he's as good (?) a rapper as Shaq.)
Best player in the league.
Had Gisele feeling moist.

Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.

5'6" 140lbs.
Entered the big time after getting his GED in NOLA and dropping out of college in Houston.

Okay D.V. - I guess the Lebron=Weezy comparison works.

If;

Lebron =Lil' Wayne

Does;

Fiddy=Iverson?

Kanye=Tony Parker

Jay Z = Jordan

Eminem=Steve Nash?

Or

Public Enemy= Daryl Dawkins

Rakim=Gervin

Beasty Boys=Bird

Boogie Down Productions=Reggie Miller

Oscar Robertson?
