nikkas tryna get cozy at Universal with the meme-flood "vibe force" social media tactics.
That's planned. nikkas got emails and instructions + a stipend.
Nobody that works for the other side would do so. Fanbase is too adult/straight/busy.
Persians, office coffee fetchers, and male hairstylists need that extra hundred bucks

I like Pusha T a lot, but some of you hate Drake so much that you’re making Push take a bigger L than he should.

I’m 100% confident that this won’t be a repeat of Meek being completely bodied by Drake because Pusha will come back with a banging ass response. This battle has staying power.

The problem is the idiotic hate being thrown at Drake by stans of rappers that were humiliated by Drake. I swear some of you seem mad because Drake smashed your favorite rapper’s girl, or ended your favorite rapper’s career during a beef :russ: .

Damn near every rapper has gotten help writing (Twista, Ghostface, Cube, etc...) which has been explained by Cassidy and others as part of the business. Between making/spending millions, touring, movies, business ventures, and smashing the finest women walking this planet, do you really think they have time to sit down and write all of their rhymes all day? :martin:

You were prolly goofy AF as a teenager too breh:yeshrug:
This isn’t about me or you Breh. It’s about Drake, and whether he should be taking shots about drug dealing at people who were actually drug dealers.

And pusha t was a dancer at this same age let's not forget. :yeshrug:
Was he a drug dealer at some point?

Pusha wasn't moving keys in high school so for this to be a real argument is pretty flimsy tbh
All rappers exaggerate Breh. The question is whether they have a connection to what they exaggerate about (like Prodigy) or whether they are out and out frauds (like Boss or Rick Ross)

An eternal win? The truth is that Drake is a pop artist that wants to be respected as an emcee. The problem is that he's been exposed as not being an authentic emcee. Had he just embrace his true status, then he wouldn't catch the flack that he gets by true hip hop heads. Because there are plenty of rappers who do not write their own shyt, and fully admit it from the jump about it. And they are respected as be. However, Drake was the one that been fronting about him being lyrical and match up with anyone, and performance-wise he can hit up any wave that is out, the problem is to which Push made mention of it, is that while they "riding waves, he got his sandals on", meaning Drake and people like him be following trends while he's his own original, he's a rap-god. He can walk above those "waves". Also, made mention by Push which is very accurate in comparison, Drake is more Will Smith when he won that first Grammy, He got it due to his pop success whereas true emcees put in that work, like Jay-Z worked hard for years to get his due. And there's nothing wrong with being a pop artist, but if you pretending to be a true emcee and it's exposed that you are not. You cannot try to battle for clout, your pop fans and Drake stans would not care, but the REAL HIP HOP HEADS that you're seeking approval will never stand by it, because the first thing they'll question is whether you wrote it or not. Drake's respect as an EMCEE is forever tarnished. For those who love the hip hop culture, that's the biggest L to have. His disses may come and go due to the popularity of fans but their short attention spans. Take Meek Mill for example, he got clowned, but now his fanbase is bigger than ever due to other situation that he made it out from. People would let an old rap battle be bygones, but viewed as a fake emcee... that'll forever sting. Ask Vanilla Ice. Ask MC Hammer. Ask any former pop rap artist that fell off because the pop fans don't care anymore.

And the vast majority knows Kanye don't always write his own shyt. He admits to it. He gives credit for people like Rhymefest, or Kid Cudi, or even Pusha T for sharing responsibility. With Kanye, people aren't seeking for him for his lyricism, but for his music. So when Kanye collaborate, it isn't with the mindset that he's an elite emcee, but that he's a genius producer that happens to rap, but the music always be top priority. Drake on the other hand is a wave rider who have a team with him to work on his bars, or conduct reference tracks, or sell him their own songs and material. For those who are true to the fundamentals of hip hop, that isn't a cool look for anyone who claim to be one of the best emcees in the gang. So someone like Pusha T who grew up on those fundamentals, he frowns upon that. That's how the whole Cash Money beef began to begin with due to the Clipse refusal to accept Lil Wayne biting their steez and jacking Gillie the Kid's lyricism.That's been part of the culture. Even as far back with the beef between LL Cool J and MC Shan, beefing on who stealing who's beat. Rap used to be about pure skills and originality, and not it is not that anymore. Everyone want to rap mediocre and ride waves and Drake is one of the biggest wave rider out right now hopping on so many feature and imitating their style on those songs instead of having an original voice.

Drake is only mainly respected in the pop society. And that is ridiculous to believe no other rapper can't see him except Jay-Z. That's a lot of super-elite MCS that you are dismissing.

Also, you cannot be a hypocrite for tell the truth. Pusha didn't contradict or lie on Drake. If anything, Drake is the hypocrite by admitting he has/had help in writing as if there's nothing wrong with it, but turn around and cry that Kanye does it too. It has nothing to with Kanye, but Drake want to throw him under the bus, because Drake know never to question Pusha's pen, so he want to make a Straw Man argument.

That is a very week logic. So you are saying that every single artist, no matter what genre, are into the music business purely for record sales? Record sales are basically the LEAST profit an artist gets from any song or album they release. It's damn sure not for sales. Many of them once they reach that comfort of success are doing it for the love of their craft and want to share it for their fans. It's not for record sales. Rappers in particular make more doing TOURS. Getting signed for a deal in 2018, labels aren't going to depend on regular sales, but how their artists known and it is through a lot of touring, a lot of making connections, sponsorships, merch, and support and backing. All that neither here nor there, Pusha T is an executive who runs and oversees GOOD MUSIC. He's the one that sign deals now. Again, he is at a comfort level where he can wait like several years before dropping an album and not worry too much about sales because sales never been huge, but their legacy was bigger and more important. Groups like Gang Star except for only ONE TIME never had an album that at least went Gold, still one of the more respect, known, and greatest rap duo. Legacy is way more important.

Fabolous?? Fabolous is nice but his career was hardly EVER on some hard street shyt. His success was making himself marketable for woman. Nothing taking from him, but you are talking apples and oranges. The Clipse, Pusha T rap about the STREETS. That is the M-O. They dropped a classic and near classic album with the Neptunes. Pusha's current album is well praised by everyone. That's not lackluster no matter how you want to believe otherwise.

Who shat in your bed?

Wack. How you call your shyt a freestyle when you sounding like you straight up reading it off the blackberry? You know he aint write it. Why are we even giving this guy burn? He should tape himself in the studio actually writing the verse first and saying it because as far as I'm concerned, he more than likely ain't write it.
sounds like he ...wrote it?
