    This isn’t a knock on Drake because Will had a great career as a rapper. You can argue Will has more timeless classics in his bag over Jay. Will's rapping career didn’t last long because at the time hip hop was so geared into hardcore gangsta raps. Now, the rap game has changed so much that Drake can use Will’s formula in the second phase of his career and make it last.

    Also one more thing, he will never be Hov anyways

    Leave the street raps alone

    Honestly I wouldn't mind Drake taking a backseat on rapping after this album or the next and doing acting again

    He's already proven he's the best out rn, not much more left to do

    this is a real question, not rhetorical

    “Yea Drake should take a break from being the biggest rapper in the world to star in some movies”

    He really said Will got more classics than Jay?

    Well that technically means Rakim/Nas has more classics than Jay since they wrote for Will.

    He surpassed Will Smith music wise with So Far Gone. I won't expect Drake to ever go into acting seriously because he doesn't need to

    That was drake’s plan when he claimed he was retiring at 35 but something changed, probably did some focus group testing and realized he wasn’t gonna be able to break through to acting on Will’s level

    There was a story years back that Drake was only doing rapping short term and was trying to get back into acting but because he had been rapping, they only wanted to give him gangster and hood nigga roles, so he stuck with rapping.

    People on KTT should stick to critiquing music instead of giving career advice from their mom’s basements

    More timeless is a weird thing to argue cause either it’s timeless or it isn’t, most of RD and Blueprint are the definition of timeless. Will has a handful of timeless joints like that one but a lot of his stuff is well known to have aged kinda iffy, either being too much like the simple 80s rap style or just being kinda corny like wild wild west

    Drake will never be Hov.
    He doesn’t have tthe discography to compete.

  • Apr 4, 2020

    I believe that's his next move when he hits 40.

    More timeless as in EVERYONE recognizes Summertime over Jays most popular song. It doesn’t matter the age or generation, people love that record.

    If we’re talking generation I really don’t think the new generation recognizes that joint like that
