This too.
It's like this.
Drake serves a purpose. So Far Gone raised the bar of where hip hop was going. To this very day, rappers are harmonizing, instead of rappity rapping. He allowed the genre to branch out of the box.
Yes the branch ended up in suburban homes, but so did NWA and em.
Bottom line, yes Drake is a goofy but he serves a purpose. Dude been in the game for almost two decades, while most of the mixtape blog rappers either phased out or went crazy.
Mos is the same goofy that starred in shyt movies and had that god awful rock album, when most hip hop heads wanted another hip hop album.
Don't get me started with the Gitmo stunt he did where dude was bytching and snotting all over the place because he wanted to demonstrate to be tube fed.
You my nıgga but I gotta stop you right there:
Mos Def is one of the originators of harmonizing in rap in addition to being super lyrical.
Mos Def experimented and put out a shıtty rock album while Drakes last album was ass cheeks and doodoo sauce. (Actually, he dropped a few wack albums.)
As an actor, Mos has accomplished waaaaaay more accolades than Drake could ever dream of including playing Chuck Berry in Cadillac Records, Vivian Green in Something the Lord made and an autistic genius working with Bruce Willis in 16 blocks. He also did the Italian Job with Mark Wahlberg which was a banger. Not to forget Brown Sugar with Taye Diggs, Queen Latifah and Sanaa Lathan. Dude is a phenomenal actor with a large body of work. He's also not a cọon that impregnated an ugly porn star and tried to hide it.
He's also pro-Black and has done a lot for the community including in Brooklyn for us growing up. He went indy in Rawkus records. (Side note, I almost had a gig by my art teacher working there.)
His parents are top professors with PHD's. and this nıgga is a genius in his craft and body of work.
Drake is a plant with a team of writers that's protected by J. Prince and his goons.
