If Drake wrote 75% of his raps, would you give him a pass?

Nah he’s definitely no longer in the GOAT talks.


He’s a popstar who’s only in the sales, streams talks. Great ear for beats, ghostwriters, delivery, execution etc.

The pen holds the most weight when we talking GOAT rappers
And that GOAT title belong to the guy who sonned your former boss to his face

His best work is from before the leaks, and that wasn't even well received. Him having good projects comes from his fans feeling insecure about Drake being popular but never having a certified album...so they tried to rewrite history. His most acclaimed projects has been received as a 7/10 album lol.
So the ghostwriting bullshyt ain't really changing much.

I'd give him a pass if the music was better than it was :mjlol:


I consider Dre a goat despite just being a producer, but thats because most of his albums are amazing. Drake? one of the worst discographies in mainstream rap.

If he WAS that Nygga, he would be doing THAT NYGGA things right now ...

Why he ain't putting his energy into exposing some of the Toronto to the world? I'm sure the got hella rappers in the 6.

Where they at? They should be under his wing

I'd give him more respect as an artist for sure, but with what's out there on him it's hard to give him the benefit of the doubt that he's writing 75% of his sh1t
