Ak is right. Current hierarchy (purely from lyrical standpoint)
French >>> Meek >>> Drake >>> Jay >>> Lil Baby >>> Kendrick >>> Nas

Other than the boat rocking on some Aaliyah s***, I deadass have no clue what Drake is even talking about for the first few lines at the beginning of Middle of the Ocean
I doubt anyone else on here knew before looking it upBut this kinda an issue for me with Pusha T too. I can't keep up with all the luxury brands and items being named, I'm in a third world country

I'm the Gotham City heartbeatI send the label bills, bills, bills like the other two women standing next to B, that s*** was just—
Independent women is lovin' the new appearance
Matter of time before I go net a B (net a b as in bag a Beyoncé, net a B as in become a billionaire) like a Paris/apiarist (a bee keeper)Like, "Honey, you gotta know that I never wore Mike Amiris or never hopped in a Urus"
I got my head in the clouds, I’m seriousssss (In other words he not whipping the cars Niggas who just got money drive because he too busy flying on his air Drake private jet so he really got his head in the clouds like the ntws cover, also the pj is covered in clouds, also cirrus is a type of cloud)
That ONE scheme (and trust there are many more that are just as fire in that verse) is harder than anything Hov spit on Marcy me
Y’all niggas just sheep man

Disagree about it being better than Marcy Me and everything else on 4:44 (you said Drake snapped harder on those two songs than Jay has since the Black album) but I'll give you credit because there's some s*** here I didn't catch
And err, f*** no. You're wrong in your edit. Don't assume s*** about me. I'm not even a Hov fan like that

Or maybe you think wordplay is the only mark of elite lyricism, so this is less of a “everyone is sheep” thing and more of a you thing?

It would be fun to break down how they both use flow, rhyme and figurative language to convey certain topics side by side tho. They’re incredibly elite at this
