    The fact drake had songs ghostwritten for him automatically makes this false. Like jay is 50 years old and drops dope verses without people ever questioning his pen. Drake can never do that which means he not in the same bracket as jay as a lyricist and thus is not better than 90% of rappers as a lyricist

    This isn’t a controversial statement in the real world. Only nerds online don’t like drake.

    Jay isn't "90% of rappers" so I dont see how that proves anything. He'd be in the 10% that Drake isn't better than.

    Bun B even said a lot of the top 10 OAT Rappers had ghostwriters. Gillie has stood firm in saying he wrote stuff for Wayne and Cash Money too but that gets glossed over.

    The myth surrounding Ghostwriting (if you dont write 100% of it you arent a real rapper) is bull. Most big artists get hooks written for them, references for how to flow on songs, etc at the bare minimum.

    Its about what can be proved or not. Drake having writers has been proven. Just off that you cant put him in the same convo as jay or pac unless you have proof they had writers. The gillie s*** was never proven and even if he did, that was before wayne’s prime anyway

    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

    This man can't decide if hes a hater or a lover
