All,
Lil Wayne is not from the south. He is from New Orleans.

More importantly his style is entirely based on Jay-Z, DipSet and other New York acts.

dont forget philly.
while the ghost writing allegations of Gillie Da Kid writing the Carter are really up in the air.. there's no denying that his whole attitude and swagger changed during the time gillie was signed to cash money.
plus wayne says bol and thats philly slang

Yup, forgot about that. Only I can say in Wayne's defense even GDK said that he never really wrote for him, just taught him some techniques. But you are right, Lil Wayne pre-Tha Carter 1 was entirely different from him on Tha Carter 1 and afterwards, so Gillie definitely had a big influence being that he was there during that timeframe.
