    Everyone's list will be subjective.

    Two common hip hop phrases "Ether" and "Renegade" spurred from Jay-Z taking L's but Jay's still on most people's GOAT list.

    People who already ranked Drake high are still going to use his career and music to solidify their stances while those who didn't rank Drake will continue to do so.

    it obviously hurts his ranking.

    But not by a ton given that duppy and push ups are excellent diss songs

    The Kendrick beef is more hurtful given the unfounded but highly offensive allegations made my Kendrick. Pusha got him with the kid reveal but having a baby mama isn’t actually a bad thing

    Drake is my favorite!

    he dont do well against cerebral niggas

  • He is on that lower mid tier for all time
    Rankings. You can’t ignore his mainstream success and hit making ability.

    Only Internet dorks think Push had a W in anything in Drakes hottest year

    And Kendork still hasn’t replied he waiting on the album to drop I guess, they do anything for clout

    He’s still in my top 10

    Would you still consider him a top 10 rapper of all time?

    Or does it not affect his legacy at all?

    it affects his legacy a little bit

    I think just the way his character keeps being brought into question is what will do the most damage fr.

    Losing a rap beef has never really been on its own "Career Ending"

    Ppl will say Ja Rule but I think the world was already kinda moving on from him & his sound even before Wanksta and Back Down dropped. his follow up album R.U.L.E. was decent but not enough to carry him after such a huge L. On top of that, the whole Murder Inc was fighting a Fed case, so it's not like 50 had anything to worry about in the sense of street retaliation.

    But back to Drake, I think its more so that the world sees Drake a bit differently after getting defeated in a way where it seems like Kendrick is the Chess grandmaster. Alot of Drake's future content about not only being the best rapper, but about being tough, will lost their sting.

    I would say he's still a top tier rapper, his impact on the musical landscape is pretty undeniable. Plus, it will probably be a few decades before the world gets an artist matching his commercial sales.

    but if it turns out that there's undeniable proof Drake was out here with underage girls or even scouting them, its over

    He actually gains respect for engaging for me. He had everything to lose and didn’t back down or duck any smoke. It’s an asterisk the fact that he lost but his catalog obliterates pretty much everyone in his generation so he a legend no matter what.

    What top 5 you smoking on kendrick?

  • Oct 23, 2024

    Which beefs?

  • Oct 23, 2024

    It’s not like drake is getting out rapped in any of these beefs. So, it doesn’t affect anything at all.

  • Oct 23, 2024

    Drake exposed one of the most hypocritical, PR driven artists of all time

    What’s Kendrick gonna do? Go back to TPAB music after we’ve all seen his true values behind the curtain 🤣🤣🤣

    Go for a chart topping album and be exposed as an even bigger clout chaser?

    I hope Drake continues to let Kendrick play himself. He’s leaving a huge stain on his legacy ffs
