Purely from a technical rapping standpoint Drake, especially in recent years it has shown in Ye’s side
However Kanye has a certain rawness to his voice that Drake can’t match
Like lbr Drake can suffer from sounding too robotic at times imo in his tone
I think as he got older he lost control over his voice. He sounds messy and slightly unhinged on the mic now
it's weird because when kanye records demos he sounds like his old self but when he has to turn those demos into real songs his voice sounds more weak and low energy. compare the LP1 version of remote to the released version of remote, he sounds a lot more bored on the latter version. i think he takes finishing songs as a chore and doesn't enjoy it as much as freestyling them so the passion isn't there sometimes.

I agree
Drake easily. He has a voice made for rap. Kanye has a decent rap voice early in his career but his s*** is awful now
I was the friend in question and yes I would say you’re correct just like me
Kanye is more expressive with his voice but if you wanna talk about overall tone/cadence then it’s Drake
I just mean like how they sound, I guess I could add parameters like breath control, pronunciation, stuff like that yeah
then it would eeeeeasily go to Drake
Ye for sure. More charisma. Never complained about Ye sounding uninspired or monotone. Just off beat or rushed
ye and he’s always had it. his verse on life of the party is sooo good his voice is great on that song
Drake always sounds too dorky for me to take it seriously when he's trying to go hard. Ye is less technical but comes off as more believable/raw
I wanted to say Drake first but then Ye's whole rapping style during WTT/CS era came up in my mind and I think its Ye. His voice is just more raw and powerful when he actually wants to use it.
Drake has been better in the last years for sure tho. I think Ye doing christians albums is why he can’t really emphasize his voice like that really lately because the songs are more soft
people are talking about technical rapping ability have no idea what technical rapping ability actually is if you're saying DRAKE. lmaoooo
drake can never rap on a song the same way kanye did on diamonds from sierra leona, gone, jesus walks, all falls down, we don't care.
honestly choose any song from 03-13 and it probably holds up
