No. Pac, Em, Wayne, 50, Snoop. But comparing actual MCs to Drake is comparing apples to oranges anyway. 50 had a short run but Drake has never had that GRODT level buzz. Peak Drake was nowhere near peak 50.

Drake simply floods the market via riding waves and having songwriter camps. Check the stats.

Drake - 4 Number 1 singles. 161 songs. 24 Top 10 hits.

Nelly - 4 Number 1 singles. 36 songs. 14 Top 10 hits.

Fiddy - 4 Number 1 singles, 39 songs, 13 Top 10 hits.

Snoop - 3 Number 1 singles, 40 songs. 11 Top 10 hits.

Jay-Z - 4 Number 1 singles, 97 songs. 21 Top 10 hits.

Kanye - 4 Number 1 singles, 81 songs. 15 Top 10 hits.

2Pac - 1 Number 1 singles, 21 songs. 2 Top 10 hits.

Em - 5 Number 1 singles, 60 songs. 17 Top 10 hits.

161 songs.

Looking at the numbers. . . . Nelly is the most efficient and did it all without a cosign.

Drake's shot chart is looking funny in the light.

Pimp Juice's run was unprecedented.

no. Drake isn’t Em, Snoop, or 50 Cent big. But he is by far the biggest from this generation. But hip hop isn’t the monster it was in the early 00s. 50 cents fukking video game went platinum.

I think Drake is on his way tho. For the longest time he was missing that universally recognized big song (ie: in da club) but I think gods plan came pretty close


pretty close to what??

I don't even know what the bolded is.
