Forget Lil Wayne; 10 Rappers Who REALLY Need To Retire

Lil Wayne made headlines recently as retirement talk was discussed in his upcoming cover feature of XXL.
However, while Lil Wayne knows that he can't continue to rap forever, he may need to tell some of his fellow emcees the same thing.
Not just based off of age but skills as well, it's time for some of these rappers to hang up the mic once and for all and move on with their lives.
Peep the page #'s below to see which emcees we think need to start looking into their 401 K.
Nelly

"I was thinking bout her, thinking bout me. Thinking bout us, what we gonna be."
You should probably start thinking about calling it quits my man.
I know at one point you were "#1," but now you're just embarrassing yourself at boxing events.
Maybe you can move to Florida with Ashanti and do some more fitness tapes.

Yung Berg

When you're known more from being the punching bag of Hip-Hop than your actual songs...it may be time to hang up the mic.
Some people aren't just cut out for this game..and THIS is a clear indication you aren't.
Lil Kim


I'm not quite sure who took Kim's calendar away from her but someone make sure she knows it's the year 2000 and irrelevant.
I'm glad that you got your name out there by picking beef with the most popular female rapper out right now, but you're too old for this.
Making sprite cans disappear in your mouth at 36?  It's time to delete that paypal account!
 Bow Wow
I know you think you are too young to give up on Hip-Hop but Hip-Hop may have given up on you my dude.
You've had a hell of a career and one that is longer than most of the rappers out here will ever have.
But when we talking gun play and gang banging now, NO ONE BELIEVES THAT! We've watched you since you were like 9 homie! #cmonson...
Get that movie money!
LL Cool J

The album "Exit 13" came out 3 years ago and I hope that really was your exit LL.
You've starred in tons of movies, tv shows, and have even wrote children books, why are you still contemplating rapping?
At the age 43 most parents are nagging to their children about the "crappy" music they listen to, and you're still trying to make it!

Diddy

One hot verse doesn't allow you to have a 15-20 year career in rapping.
While you've also explored into singing and using Major Lazer drum kits with Swizz Beatz, what are you really trying to accomplish?
You're in Forbes magazine and changing your name to "Swag" because you think that's cool?
Rev Run is letting his children take over, try the same.

Shyne

I shouldn't even have to go into details about this one.
Although Diddy may or may not of screwed you over (most likely may of) you are a free man now with endless possibilities.
Go enjoy life Po, Mazel Tof!!!

Soulja Boy

When you start stealing people's style and lyrics, it may be time to call it quits.
Keeping yourself relevant from social media through rants, cooking videos, and whatever else you can do to draw attention, it seems you're headlines are always negative ones.
Although you were one of the forefathers of the "Getting signed off the Internet" era, Hip-Hop has moved on and you should too.
Birdman

At 85 years old, you have a gigantic star on your head and for some reason you're still rapping.
You are head of one of the most successful labels in Hip-Hop today, and obviously making enough dough to buy a 7 million dollar car every other week.
So why you're still rapping is always going to be a mystery to me PLAYBOY!
