i agree with this. i think he's corny, but i won't deny that drake is exceptionally talented on the mic. right now, i'm siding with drake in any battle that sparks off with just about any rapper presently doing it. he's nice like that. you're right. nikkas can criticize his personality and not listen to his records (like me, for instance), and still acknowledge dude got skills.

come on breh

now you bout to give the haters a reason to post in here. They can't deny his talent so now they're gonna focus on this, instead of addressing the topic of the thread. You just opened up Pandora's box. Great job.

I kinda came around to Drake, dude is talented, but that was never in question, I listen to dude mainly like a pop artist, as a real rapper, I can't take him that seriously. I'd rather hear him do the singing, 'A Night Off', 'Take Care', 'Real Her', but I love 'Enough Said', his rapping his tolerable, but I like the R&B songs more, or shyt like 'Over My Dead Body'.

That said, dude is a nerd, whatever you want to call it, and theres a certain aspect of his personality and image, I at time, find extremely unlikable. And I see why DMX, and other 90's era rappers don't fukk with him, even dudes like Mase had a little bit of edge to them, even it was all bullshyt. But, it's not even close to true, saying he's not talented. He's not a lyricist though, he doesn't have the have bars, or the heart imo, to be put up there with AZ, Cormega, Jadakiss, Styles P, Beanie Sigel, Mobb Deep, but he's something in his own right, definitely.

Wow surprised by the responses in these thread glad to know my Coli-eagues keep it real.

If we're just talking about music I think Drake is good and has potential to be great. I liked Take Care, Comeback Season, and So Far Gone. Thank Me Later was :ehh:

If we include all the non-music shyt he's done than yeah he's one insecure corny muthafukka but I'm a fan of music not soap operas so to me anything out of the booth is jokes just for laughs :heh:


I'm a fan :manny:

I think he's talented. He's not the best lyricist or singer, but he does make good music.

What I dont understand is why threads like these are being made or why all his fans get all offended on Twitter and shyt...then start labeling and talking shyt about his naysayers. Like this post by Premeditated. So nikkas must be broke if they don't like Drake? :what:

If you fukk with dude's music, it shouldn't matter what the next nikka thinks. This shyt is insecure and needs to stop.
I'll hate on his fans that constantly :cape: for this guy before I hate on him. ALL rappers get hated on and made fun of. Drake is no exception.
