Maybe you're right about migos but no way about Kendrick. Swimming pools and maad city were hugeeeee, not even hating lol.
But the question is what caused people to even check for the album? Drake put Kendrick on Take Care and then on his Club Paradise tour that started in Feb 2012, Kendrick "critically acclaimed" album didnt come out until October 2012. There's no better example of stimulus. Yes K Dot put out good music but it was Drake who gave him the exposure to his audience that actually purchases albums.

Versace was already poppin bruh. We knew that track before Drake hopped on it.

Similarly with Kendrick...ppl were already up on Section 80 and Swimming Pools was his first song. Drake, again, came after
My last post applies to this as well. I'm not disputing "poppin" songs, we're talking exposure and having a undeniable impact on a lesser artists careers.

Hov kills one verse and nikkas is hype AF.

Drake gets songs in the top 40 and he does his thing on all features whether on the hip hop or R&B tip. Like Wayne said "shyt gon be alright if we put Drake on every hook".
Do you know the meaning of Murk? It means to murder. None of these verses mentioned above did he murder anything. Not to say they weren't memorable but he didn't murk shyt.

He did murder those especially Versace and Stay Schemin', he also murdered Tony Montana Remix and was tailor suited for Poetic Justice. He bodied Sh!t Remix too dude always came correct on features. Talk about his hooks on I'm On One and Aston Martin Music too.

1. The motto was not a feature
2. He breaks the Internet at least once a year with his rapping features

2012 Stay Schemin and poetic justice
2013 Versace
2014 We made it, Tuesdays, recognoize and My way
2015 Rico

I could think of more but the point is clear
Rico was written by Quentin. The last time Drake murdered a feature that we can attribute to him is Versace.

Are you from the South? In most of the country people didn't know who Migos were until the remix.

Nobody was up on Section.80 that shyt was great but it was an underground release. I was one of the few people in my circle who knew about Kendrick because I had heard his Empire State of Mind cover years prior. Ignore his feature on Double Platinum selling album Take Care and the Club Paradise tour. A$AP Rocky has spoken on the impact that tour had on his career.

Quentin has 4 lines out of a 16 bar verse on R.I.C.O. breh.

Touring with a bigger artist always helps a smaller artist get exposure . But that's not a stimulus . That's good management and the smaller artist doing well enough to earn new fans.

A stimulus is like I mentioned with Bleek going gold off the strength of a Jay cosign or GUnit going plat cause of 50.

I see that we just dont see eye to eye on this and thats fine, because there's absolutely NO WAY anyone can compare any album Memph put out to anything G Unit put out in the GRODT era because the G Unit album, Banks album and Buck album were all classics in their own right. The only difference is I dont consider it stimulus because they were signed to 50, thats just good business. Drake does shyt for ppl he's not making a quarter off.

I haven't heard a :ohmy: Drake verse in a long ass time.

I haven't heard him spaz in a long time.

I noticed when it comes to him people use the term "murder" in the weirdest way.

Like how he "murdered" Meek on Amen or Kendrick on Poetic Justice.

And then you look at the verses and you don't see where the murk is. Where the wordplay is.

I think it's just easier to say he makes music that's easy to listen to. But as far as him having just this flat out amazing verse? It's been a long time. Can't remember the last time I was thoroughly impressed with a Drake verse like I was with that Hov verse on on DDA.

Prolly cuz never in his god awful musical career has a verse that's even 1/billionth as GOATly as the GOAT Hov's DDA verse been spit by Drizzy Vanilli aka Do Rogue And Kopy Everything aka Queen Aubrey & Her Woes of The Writers Block Roundtable aka Kike & The Ghostwriting Gang aka Drizzy Cochoran & Associates LLAC (Limited Lyrical Ability Corp) aka Aubrina The Teenage Snitch aka Aubrey Herpburn aka Aubrey Onasis The First Ladyboy aka Kosher Cell aka Kirby Graham aka aka Simp Doggy Dawg aka Swag Tsung aka Kike Moist Dee aka KikeRS-One aka LL Kike J aka JewPac Shakike aka Piss Stain Papi aka Pisstikal aka Pissy Elliott aka Pissy Smalls the Notorious D.E.P.E.N.D.S.

nikkaz in here talmbout he murdered Versace when Kosher Cell could barely get Quentin's adlibs down pact while Migos effortlessly bodied him with they own :mjlol:

shyt, the GOAT Hov has a career worth of verses better than anything Piss Stain Papi has ever paid someone to conceived of for him, much less something he's created himself
