This is how alot of top tier (commercial wise) music is made btw.

I wish more rappers study the industry and learn the creative process in reality because it shouldn't take a Canadian to come in and show how its done, that is weak.

It seems like its only TI, Birdman, Drake out of the rappers who have ears on the ground, effective talent scouts and a culture that gets people writing hits.... that aint enough.

Nikkas got labels with songwriters and producers in the minority instead of at least half or the majority smh... hustling backwards if you ask me.
nikkas hustling backwards huh? Even tho as artists hip hop was the most profitable artform of all time due to the artist being the one doing the majority of the work. Same for the producer. Yea. Let's throw that away and have to pay a bunch of other nikkas and make less money off our music than ever in the history of this genre. Lets throw away all the potential ASCAP money. Add all the 360 deals and the artist winning right? Smh.

Breh you're so disingenuous and full of shyt it's insane. Do you work for OVO?

First off the shyt you're constantly saying "no one cares" about Drake clearly cares about. If he didn't care about his standing as an MC....purely as an MC, completely outside of any bullshyt "entertainment industry" nonsense....why in the fukk would he lurk the underground battle scene? Why would he say he wants to battle? Why would he call out somebody like Murder Mook?

Murder fukking Mook. Not one of his peers. A random underground rap darling. The only thing he has to gain from any of that is credibility and bragging rights as an MC.

Matter of fact, scratch all that. If Drake don't care about how people perceive him and his music....and he's just an artist from "the sausage factory"....why did he get offended that Obama picked Kendrick over him?

Just say you're a casual rap fan and YOU don't care about any of this shyt.

Fred.
Even better why would Drake go do an interview and say "I don't want my fans to think I'm a product"
and all that other bullshyt if he didn't care how he was perceived ?

:laugh:
He was on damage control immediately after those reference tracks dropped.

WHAT? :dahell:

nikka did you conveniently miss the part about these motherfukka's putting their best songs on a USB for Drake to cruise thru the 6 with and pick his next hit :mindblown::what::camby:

Songs? It was one song and it was Hold On We Are Going Home. Listen to it again bruh. Don't see what the problem is here :yeshrug:

What's even worse about drake stealing music/rhymes/flows is his silly fans really trying to pretend that every rapper does it :russ:

Your just exposing yourself as a fan of drake, not a fan of hip hop.
What he's doing isn't normal, whatsoever
Please leave Jay Nas cole, Sean, Kendrick etc out of this foolish discussion. They do not Create music in the same fashion drake does :russ:

Compare drake with the puff daddy's and the Dr.dres when IT comes to making music. Like Homie said earlier, we shoulda known by the blackberry shyt.

:laff:

Look at this 40 year old white man mad about my stance on song making

I want to hear good music period. I don't know what drake cares about
So you really don't believe there isn't anything wrong about bragging being the best rapper(flow, lyrics etc)
And not actually writing it

Never the flow tho :troll:

And that's the most annoying thing about that nikka. He hates anything that came before the 2000s and ever since Drake got caught out there he tries to pass that shyt off on EVERY artists while always sayin Noone cares and rewriting history by saying shyt like writing never mattered or whatever other bullshyt he comes up with in his head. If the nikka would just keep it real and say HE doesn't care and stop tryna pass it off like this is how hip hop has always been and is supposed to be it would be fine. Like I said before I can't stand Meek but all this Drake shyt making me root for him off GP.

nothing too crazy, just jacked her cadence n switched around her hook on diamonds dancing. i made a thread as a joke about it, and even something as simple as that, the kirby stans were deflecting.

Its actually funny, its that thread where the whole "Kirby" nickname came from, cause people on twitter where calling Drake the rap game's biggest biter

:laff: Called this nikka the rap game KIRBY im gone!! :laff: :bryan: :deadmanny:
