Drake is the most overrated rapper of the past 15+ years.

Not to mention OP was just posting about how he literally is broke and has NO women.

That shyt isn't healthy...but he's over here hating on artists who don't speak on social issues. :snoop:
This has nothing to do with this post nor does it really matter in the context of this post...but since you really don't have anything else to say to refute my opinion I'll let you cook.

See your thread about being single contradicts your being unable to relate to drake ! You sound just like him talking about I need someone to cuddle :to: at least he's honest about it. Your general problem with drake what , that he's not a more concious rapper ? That he's not tupac? There are rappers who rap about the subjects you want to hear man , it would be easier to listen to them wouldn't it?

LOL.

Motherfukkers are so dumb lol, namely Backcrack lol, so simple lol. Don't tell me missed the references in The Ruler Is Back too? Lol.

Plus there is a difference between substantive content and positive, even conscious bars. Drake is fukking hollow, like his shyt is often extra meaningless, shyt is so dull, he doesn't even capture my attention in the bars, I have to force myself to listen to them instead of enjoying it. He makes hoe music like Common said, for hoes. Shallow, pointless, meaningless, pathetic. He makes dumb 13 year old music. Even in his bars he ain't hitting like that, Jay was saying shyt even in Takeover even though the subject was a diss record it still had substance, Drake is so often so fukking hollow, terrible artist, terrible human being, just terrible in general.

nikkas out here writing dissertations on rappers y'all don't like :heh:
I don't like Drake either but you know what I do about it?
I don't listen to his music :ohhh:
Crazy right?
nikkas need father figures instead of looking for rappers to be them.
I don't look for anything out my rappers but music
These nikkas ain't political activist so stop expecting them to be.

I agree with this. I don't like Drake's music all that much though recognize he's a dope MC when he wants to be. But I don't get complaining about having social commentary. That's not his job. He's an entertainer not Marcus Garvey. Stop looking for people to do shyt that's not in their job description.

shyt Redman is one of my all-time favorites and all he raps about his smoking weed, bytches and hood shyt

I will say, Drake mastered the art of being a commercial rapper, at least for this era

1) He's a good MC, so he already has a leg up on his comp
2) He makes very relatable records. I personally don't care for them but women love his music (All races) and so do men. He speaks for the IG, Twitter DM, try to bag a bartender/stripper, trips/flying bytches out generation. That's all these kids care about and relate to (And sadly, a lot of grown ass men), so they fukk with it hard body.
3) He picks good beats and makes good hooks

Nobody, just me
I'm not a fan of Drake, but this thread is super corny. Substance will not make you a good artist. That's is why I appreciate these new artists alot more than other people will. Alot of artists can make great music with little to no substance.

I fukking love Kendrick, but I will still zone out to Gucci.

Why is there a debate on this? I wonder how do y'all dweebs who defend Drake's soft ass music look like...pluckin brows chapstick lifestyle or some shyt like that?

The fukk. Drake is the logo of the soft ass hip-hop, the president of Soft Jam Records, r&b thug, cornball, etc etc.


Just cos that thot you fell in love with bumped Drake that one night you almost got head from her in your Camry, doesn't make Drake a good rapper.

FOH

true, but 90's babies overrate everything to a mind numbing degree. in hiphop these days mediocrity is championed so long as you can hide behind a beat that sounds good to these kids high on their "kush" ( no matter if said beat is only slightly different then half the other beats on the album)


remember when "Odd Future" was the new wu-tang?

kendrick and young thug are the only cats worth a shyt

i wouldn't let his lack of social awareness take away from acknowledging the skills. everyone cant be the GOAT . As far as the music goes he definitely built his own lane...can't name anyone that sounds like him so props for innovation. work ethic is top notch had the amounts of hits in one year that some have in a career. flow is on point and the content is somewhat relatable and intelligent but the bar is low right now. smart enough to know he has to dumb his stuff down for $$ but can be sick at times. i think people relate struggle lyrics with depth or something like that and they don't like the singing but I thought that was called versatility...idk man

He's talented no doubt.

But he tends to make that "I know we're broken up and it was my choice to leave you but now I see you happy with someone else so I gotta pop back in your life to confuse you" music

As a man I can't really rock with it
