Drake isnt hip hop - Yaasin Bey

[Bolzmark]

Nah, Quentin has some serious bars.

I've had to come to terms with that.

Fixed.

 

[DatNkkaCutty]

What happen to this nkka....and why does he sound sassy now?

 

[jadillac]

Fixed.

Nah, I've been studying this too much lately. Literally.

You can listen to his lyrics and hear specific things he mentions that no one else could write.

The stuff like Hiotline Bling and some og the QM stuff, you can tell he probably didn't write those.

He sounds the same as he always has

Bunch of ny rappers have a lisp or funny sounding voices in general

 

[The God Poster]

As someone who enjoys Drake music I get why he switched up but that SFG-Take care version. And everything in between will always give me nostalgia.

Them memes was just too much for him

Switching up also made his career longer

 

[Gains]

went the actor route, then after started doing shyt like this..

Yes , Mos has done his share of activist work

 

[CashmereThoughts]

i have a special hate for Drake, half-breed makes horrible music.

I’m a well documented drake hater. His music is not horrible. It’s mediocrity that has been successfully market as greatness

 

[CashmereThoughts]

This is such a disingenuous take.

Does Drake make pop songs? Yes. But for every Hotline Bling and In My Feelings he has plenty of traditional rap songs. It’s 2024 not 1993. If that’s the case any rapper post 2008 is a pop artist. Rap is popular music now so expecting artist to move the same way they did 30 years ago is ridiculous. You either adapt or find yourself coming across as an out of touch hater.

Notice they were talking about Hip-Hip and your talking about “rap”. The fact that you dont understand the dichotomy explains why his point went over your head.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

he makes better Music than Mos Def

You are out of your fukking mind

Imagine being this corny

 

[TEH]

I would rate Drake's best verses much higher than Mos Def's.

Put the lyrics side by side let’s see

this track just screams Saturday morning eating a bowl of ya favorite cereal.. with the sun poking out the blinds.. knowing ya whole day is ahead of you

 

[FukkaPaidEmail]

I thought he was going to be on some hater shut ..but Drake is pop

Same with Taylor Swift , Beyoncé and any other megastar in music

 

[419scam]

He's right. Drake isn't hip-hop, he's pop-hop

Hip Pop

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

And Drake gave this nikka props on Away from Home “And Mos Def gave me like a rack for performin”

Mos Def made Kanye used them backpack nikkas to get on and once he blew he ain’t fukk with them nikkas since lmaoo
