While many may disagree with Akademiks or agree to varying levels, you can’t deny that the comparison is at least understandable. They’re arguably the two GOATs of their generation; how could we not indulge the thought exercise? Akademiks defended an equal pen game between the two rappers when asked about Drizzy’s lines on “Circo Loco.” The Her Loss track alongside 21 Savage caught Drake in some heat for dissing Megan Thee Stallion and dismissing her side of the Tory Lanez shooting story.
Drake rapped “This b***h lie ’bout gettin’ shots, but she still a stallion” on the track. Moreover, he threw a few additional disses in there that many believe to aim at Meg. “She don’t even get the joke, but she still smilin'” and “Shorty say she graduated, she ain’t learn еnough, Play your album, track one, ‘kay, I heard enough” are key examples. Akademiks told Vlad that Drake is at the level where no double entendre of his is unintentional. This puts him next to Hov in Ak’s mind.

DJ Akademiks and 1st grade child at the back of the short bus at same intelligence level
I been saying this
Drake has never been RD, Vol 1 lyrically but he pretty much as nice as Hov post Vol 2
I mean, in a way, kinda.
It sounds blasphemous but Drake lowkey has an all time pen game
Nope lol
Drake got a great pen at his best but it’s not better than Jay or Nas.
Only s*** that make it seem like Drake bars seem like they not as hard as Hovs is the content
Drake be basically rapping about f***ing hoes being a yrn and running the rap game
Hov be basically rapping about being a former d*** kingpin, being an old rich nigga and running the rap game
The coke raps hit harder than the lover boy raps 🤷🏽♂️
That’s the thing about Hov I love, he was like Drake and Benny the Butcher in one nigga
Drake stans about to act like this is true but I don't expect the mfs who interpreted what Kendrick said on Father Time as a diss against Drake to know much about lyrics, so that's okay
Lmao Drake will never be lyrically the same as Hov
Drake is dope but his bars are simple ass s***
Hov got creative and cool bars 20+ into his career
Drake peaked 7 years ago and his stans pretend to like his newer weak s***
