These new fans don’t know that Drake didn’t like how Hotline Bling won a rap Grammy
If DRAKE HIMSELF feels like some of his catalog shouldn’t be counted as hip-hop then I really don’t get how the majority of his fanbase tries to act like all of his songs are
Not talking about you @NoFace
also lets not act like because Drake’s most streamed songs are not rap records, that he couldnt do a versus strictly off of rap records alone lol
yall be letting stans trick yall lmao
He could not pull off 25 rap records that beat Jay’s best 25 rap records. He just couldn’t man. Jay’s catalog is elite and it’s literally all rap music.

Drake with a handicap (none of his biggest songs) would still beat most in a Verzuz and I think that’s insane
Jay has arguably 7 classic albums and all of them are 100% rap. Even if you wanna say Drake has 3-4 classics, half of each album is not rap music
God’s Plan is hip-hop sure but it’s so poppy and elementary that it feels comedic to even count it
Nice For What - yes
In My Feelings - hard no
Life is Good - yes
Going Bad - yes
Yes Indeed - yes
Nonstop - yes
Love Me - sure, but this wouldn’t be played in a Verzuz, Drake legit has two lines on the entire record
Jimmy Cooks - yes
Wait For U - absolutely not
Tootsie Slide - maybe but same situation as God’s Plan
Laugh Now Cry Later - sure, but it’s extremely melodic, there isn’t a real verse on the entire record
you telling me In My Feelings IS NOT hip hop? cmon Fader, bffr rn lol
Wait For U is prolly more R&B leaning but its elements fit under hip hop still. its a tweener
Like we really gotta tie one hand up behind his back to make it a fair fight. Are you listening

Drake vs. Kanye would be more interesting because they’ve both explored genres in their careers. Drake would get washed by Jay
Crazy that if you got rid of the features it’s
God’s Plan
Nice For What
In My Feelings
Nonstop
Toosie Slide
Not making a point just interesting

hov has 4 classics

Kanye washes Drake indescribably. I don’t think Drake would win a round
I concede on the Drake vs Jay actually you all brought up good points and songs. It’s clear Jay is understated on here
hov has 4 classics
He has minimum 5

I think Kanye would still win too I just think it’d be more of a fair fight

Dude I’m starting to think he wrote all those songs for other people and had to do them himself eventually
We know about God’s Plan
There’s just something about them

nah im not slighted at all. i remember that Grammy speech and i agreed to a degree. shouldnt have been in the rap categories at all, def should’ve been in the broader category

I would say it’s hip hop but a lot of Drake stans used to say that song and Nice For What were Bounce and used to use that to add to Drakes versatility

Where is the rap verse on In My Feelings
i said its HIP HOP, not rap lol
you confusing my point here
I think Kanye would still win too I just think it’d be more of a fair fight
Yes I agreeeee
I would say it’s hip hop but a lot of Drake stans used to say that song and Nice For What were Bounce and used to use that to add to Drakes versatility
yea he def was influenced from the sound, EYE wouldnt say he has done bounce entirely but the song has bounce elements, which is drastically different from what others are echoing
but that song is every bit of hip hop
