His ability to craft cohesive, well written lyrics that can connect so many people so deeply puts him above "rappity rap" lyricists who can't connect with listeners and only impress rap nerds.
It's what made Jay, Pac, and Wayne goat lyricists. Plus, he's got quotables for days (just like the goats I named)
Make fun of him all you want for being a "simp" or a "pop artist", but the fact that he's made you know him so well that you can even make fun him just shows how real and raw he is
Drake a GOAT
EDIT: Thread dead after 5 and a half pages? HA! I like Drake too but fr "above 90% of rappers as a lyricist"? You niggas who agreed exposed yaselfs
F*** is your dumbass talking about?? If you knew anything about music it’s the melody that “connects people” with drakes music. People aren’t quoting this mans s*** like he’s a good writer. They quote his hooks or 1 bar. F*** outta here man
Idc about yall shambles. Brave is the GOAT
F*** J Cole
Why f*** J Cole? If we look at the numbers we have to admit he makes lyrics that connect with people right
