Wayne's prime run technically started with C2 and The Dedication when he called himself the Best Rapper Alive and he replaced G Unit as the mixtape king. Then he started to become the feature king in 06.
07/08 was a continuation of that and 09-11 was when the quality dipped but he was still the hottest rapper with even his mid albums selling like hotcakes and C4 doing damn near a mil fw like C3.
I get what you're saying. Baby's really hot rn and doing a ton of features but Wayne just had all bases covered: the rap world, the mixtape world, the pop world, helping Drake/Nicki/Tyga blow and expanding YM, etc.
And this isn't even touching on his influence. Wayne's probably a top 3 most influential rapper of all time. Meanwhile, even Carti's more influential than Baby.
But I get it. There's some similarities.

Yeah, Lil Baby is not big enough to headline arenas like that, maybe give 2-3 more albums, (if he evolves as an artist) and he might be able to do it.
Kanye has toured arenas?
stadiums have more seats, like where they play football and soccer, so selling out a stadium is more of an achievement
Kanye definitely could sell out a stadium
Just couldn't do a whole tour of stadiums lol
S*** not too many people can
Beyonce, Rihanna tier right there

Wayne’s prime was really different plus it’s harder to compare the streaming era now to just pure sales from 10-15 years ago lil baby is cool and one of the hottest out but people need to calm down comparing him to prime weezy
He hasn't done nearly enough to even think to compare himself to Wayne. Y'all gassed him up.
Can Olivia Rodriguez
Probably in a few years if she continues this trajectory
But streaming numbers are fake so idk
and y’all claimed he bigger than Trav
You can’t really say that
Trav got white kids in a frenzy, white kids buying tickets
Niggas not buying tickets. Look at it as duck riding
Oh s*** forgot this KTT
carry on
What you think this was? "Chubbs"
Kanye just had the falcons stadium packed on short notice
Prime Kanye could def do stadiums with the right supporting cast on the tour
You're overestimating the reach of that song.
It reached #4 on pop radio lol...
If you add the memes, levitating, and the controversies, hes the bigger artist
