Drake and Future will be known as legends for whatever it is they do.

When you look at MC's, tho. Kendrick will be the one most highly regarded. Cole probably next.

Gibbs, KRIT, Wale will probably be given more credit than they are today.

Yeah Drake is successful, one of the reasons why I would consider him a legend...but do you really think outside of serious Drake fans people will be eager to hear a lot of those songs again?

Nelly was a successful rapper too but nikkas ain't fiending to play Hot In Herre or E.I.
Nelly was had 1 massive album and was downhill from there. After 3 years, dude was a joke. Drake is on a damn near 10-year run. A whole generation has grown up with this dudes music in their ear for almost a decade. He is a legend. This is like old heads in 96 who grew up listening to run dmc and melle mel, swearing up and down that tupac isnt a legend and makes trash music. The music aint meant for old asses.

Drake is in that Lil Wayne legend category. They both have stupid long runs and undeniable hits but when you look at their actual discog it ain't even sniffin top 10.

Kdot the only one who got a legit discog that can put him top 10 all time

Y'all really think Cole and Big Sean have classics? Or that they have impacted the game in any way?

I believe they're both exceptional artists though, I will say that

Sean's flow has birthed too many MCs to name. Did a good portion of Graduation.

DSP is a mainstream recipe for a rapper in the modern era and I Decided is a great concept album.

He doesn't get his due because people think he doesn't sound like a man but they can mess with Danny Brown, Vince Staples and Kendrick.

As far as who people will look at as legends in mainstream


Kendrick
Cole
Drake(love him or hate him)
maybe Future(I don't get the hype, dude sounds retarded but has a good fanbase)

Sean could be a reach but they all have huge fanbases, Chance is being groomed to superstar status so I could see it happening
I could see it happening with Chance...people still gravitate toward positive music so he has a chance:lolbron:


I liked Coloring Book and I'll be checking out for any upcoming project he has

Next to Freddie Gibbs I think Big Sean has the best flow game in rap

The only problem is, I don't be feeling his songs

Truth be told I'll probably never listen to his first album again:manny:

The second album I never gave it a proper listen so I can't tell you how I feel about it

Dark Sky Paradise is a dope album and I'll mostly likely listen to it again:feedme:

I haven't heard is new album outside of the singles but I liked those songs so I'll be listening to that album pretty soon
