metDrake is a better artist because even prime Jay had him making poor music decisions like mimicking the shape of rap in the 90s with Reasonable Doubt (still an amazing album), a dump of unique ideas wasted on a double LP filled with filler like on BP2, hopping on trends like autotune, EDM and trap like on BP3 and WTT and poor marketing ideas utilizing social media and hopping on new trendy s*** like Twitter with Magna Carta.
We've seen Drake reinvent himself with almost every project with a few exceptions (Scorpion) where even then he brought a respectable production lineup and experimented a bit. Drake's vision is overlooked when looking at the artist side of things. Drake albums will still sound fresh in the future while albums like Vol 3, BP2 and Dynasty will sound dated, no shot at Jay-Z's sharp pen, he's still one of the best rappers of all–time.
agree w many of those criticisms of jay tbh.
but also...
drake didn’t even start rapping decent until NWTS.
and he didn’t rap with real confidence until IYRTITL.
he has R&B records that are great but also are a struggle to watch him perform.
Artists who provide us with a lot of consistent content are NEVER perfect, and that goes for both Jay and Drake.

Cajun FriesGreat choice and he could hold his own against prime jay in that mode i dig it
Jay was a damn beast tho i feel ppl forget about it
And even so he got effortlessly smoked by Biggie every time (RIP)
Biggie was really one of the best man. He had it all, people are still playing catch up with him today. His vision, ear and artistry is just a blessing

Jan 13, 2021What do reference tracks of less than like 5% of his catalogue have to do with the other major portion of his own writing ability and credibility.

Dreams Money Can Buy was way before NWTS and so was The Resistance, 9am in dallas, Barry Bonds Freestyle, nah man that's just not true.
The part about a lot of consistent content never being perfect is true though.

He started rapping "decent" since Comeback Season. I can link you several songs on each project before NWTS that show his sharp pen, he started getting "decent" on freestyling during Take Care and mastered it shortly after.
Take Care is a classic rap record, NWTS showed his improvement and maturity on a rappity rap level. He's always been confident, but he was in a new type of boastful bag on IYRTITL. His r&b s*** is just a plus, he definitely does on studio albums than live singing-wise.
And obviously these two aren't perfect, no one is.

I just put on 9 AM in Dallas and immediately cringed.
he started rapping WITH HIS CHEST (like a confident artist, with mic presence, with a strong voice) on NWTS and followed it up with IYRTITL through to now.
