What we do know was that Drake heard this song at some point. We can agree to that.

That said, isn't it more likely that he heard the song when it was poppin' and on the charts in '94?

If yes - then this song wasn't as "regional" as some of y'all are saying, since Drake was living in a whole other country.
If no - then this song must be important enough in retrospect to reference in Drake's opinion to gain credibility with "real" fans.
If not that - then Drake tried to pull a fast one here.


Which is it?

man, no offense but youre taking this thread backwards. just go back a few pages and re-read. lol.

This thread started out backwards.

Like I said, that post I quoted was a good place for it to end.

of course you would say that.

because you stopped reading there.

not to mention that youre also taking stuff out of context and arguing about stuff that i never said.

No, I would say that because what you said in response to that was unsatisfactory to the validity suggested by that question. You weren't saying anything of note.

And you still aren't.

You'd be better off quiet on this.

the irony of that last statement.

you didnt read anything. if you did, then half of your previous post wouldnt have consisted of you arguing about stuff that i never even said.

I made a special trip to go back and read you alleged "dejection" of that question...2 days ago.

it was weak then, and it still is.

And know that this isn't an argument - it's me telling you you're full of chit. I'm not trying to convince you that you aren't. lol

Drake could've at least shouted him out knowing this new generation won't realize where he sampled the flow from.

And how many rappers do this? :upsetfavre:

Did Mase shoutout LL when he used the "Can't a young nikka get money anymore" I didnt even know that was an LL line until years later b/c it was before my time.

Did Wayne shout out Rakim when he bit the "Thinkin of a Master Plan" verse.

The list could go on, but y'all like to single out Drake. :yeshrug:


And Is this a real single, or just some mixtape stuff? If it's a real single then 4-Tay should get a check, but for some mixtape stuff he needs to just fall back.

The nikkas you named are superstars. Rapping 4-Tay can walk in any mall in America and not have to worry about an autograph seeker. Can't you see the difference?

as other have stated before, but the question has gone unanswered and simply ignored. If "playaz club" was so "regional" and had no "impact" or "influence" how did a half jewish kid from Canada name Drake know about the song? :lupe:

so ue saying Drake should've shouted him out to give him more fame? I'm not sure what ur trying to say....

Again, is this a mixtape song or what? It coulda been something where they were just messing round in the studio and then later YG decided to keep it and release it. I'm just asking....

you knew them IF you are old enough to remember the songs...but if not then it's no different from this situation

I'm saying people don't know who 4-Tay unlike the other guys you mentioned so if you steal a line from an album that went triple platinum it's a lot different than stealing from an album that was only really big in the bay area.

It's one thing to take a line and another to take 5.
