no but can possibly be in contention of being the best but not greatest

Decided to name my top 5 today and had the same exact rappers

Yes

NO

Nah

Better than drake and Cole and that’s not just talking skill just overall artistry. The same case people be making for Kanye I can say the same for Kendrick. Cole and drake doesn’t have a single album on the same level as GKMC and TPAB s*** even Section 80 if we being real tho 2014 and IYRTITL can be argued that’s just for section 80 tho. Only reason why people even put drake in the same league as Kendrick is because drake has an amazing ability to craft hits he’s the most accessible out of the 2 but he’s been on a decline album wise since Views. He just doesn’t take risks like that he doesn’t test the game y’all hear drake rap monotone over a slowed 90s R&B sample and say he’s the greatest rapper of all time

He doesnt need to be an amazing writer. Like I've already said, he is a producer first and foremost.

Mans has like 5 classic albums and the most influential hip hop album of all time under his belt mostly thanks to his amazing production skills. Honestly, when do you ever hear people praise his lyrics?

Drake, despite having writers his entire career (from Nickelus F to QM) never even managed to put out one undisputable classic project... and all Drake has is his pen. He has no other skillset.

Therefore, #6 is being generous...

Kung Fu Kenny???

Yeaahhhh,, nahhh...

But this sensei here through

F*** no
But as far as crafting works of art, yes

You guys are using wordplay, flow, lyricism, "technique" to try and discredit him when he has all of that Also, to everyone saying Drake??? post some performances that compete with these

Then you still got tracks like Momma, BDKMV (a song the general population doesn't even understand, they just hear the hook and vibe to it), Sing About Me, FEAR, THat Part remix

Not saying he's the best ever but some of you are trying way too hard to discredit him. @Darkest_Angel had to sneak Drake into his list by saying ChampagnePapi

imagine having drake in ur top 10

1. Biggie
2. Hov
3. Kendrick
4. Andre
5. Kanye

But hey thats just me

greatest of this generation

better than Kendrick for sure

No but he's up there

So you telling me Kendrick better than Kendrick 🤔

Dude, the topic is about questioning is the Kdot the greateast RAPPER of all time, and you put out a top where you are specifically pointed out that Drake has a questionable pen.

My question is why haven't you pointed out the same about Kanye, as I assumed that you compare them as rappers and not as overall musicians/artists. Otherwise I can't understand either how Hov can be on the first place. Is he better artist then Ye? I don't think so.

Drake just works differently, he has many hits/classic songs, and instead of making 10 songs long tight project he would rather release 20 songs.

no!
K Dot >>>>>>>>> Kendrick

Nobody ever said we were specifically talking about their rapping skills lol you must've got confused.

They are all rappers.

And yeah I do believe that Hov is better than Yeezy.

Yes.

The title quite literally says greatest “rapper”

They are all rappers.

But when dude brings up KanYes pen it’s suddenly “and he is a producer first and foremost”

No, definitely not.
