    It’s not hating. She said she thinks her music is dope but doesn’t consider her a rapper.

    That’s not hate.

    imagine saying drake isnt rap anymore just because he also appeals to a pop crowd

    that would be ridiculous right? but thats how yall sound

    I would not compare Drake's """Pop""" efforts to Doja's

    *rooted in hiphop

    The lack of distinction here between rapping as a vocal style and hiphop as a genre is twisting everything up

    Rooted in hip hop takes both the vocals and the production into play.

    When you hear Drake’s albums you can tell that they’re pop leaning but they’re rooted in the genre of hip-hop.

    Doja’s albums are the opposite. Rap leaning but rooted in the genre of pop.

    it's almost like just rapping isn't enough to be put in an all time great list

    So what would she need to do to get in then?

    Yes, but Drake has maybe less than 10-15 songs in his entire discography that are THAT much leaning into pop.

    Compared to Doja where it’s more than half of her discography that’s leaning into pop that heavily

    Agreed, but him having songs like that and Feel No Ways doesn't compare to Doja's discography and the more blatant Pop stylings her music has had

    Her opinion is different from old heads saying “this Carti s*** is garbage and not hip hop” versus “I think Doja Cat is a dope artist but I don’t view her as a rapper”

    Side note: it’s wild how little straight up pop songs Drake actually has in his discography given how the pop title is used to dismiss him and emasculate him but that’s another convo

    THIS.

    The Drake comparison in this discussion is stupid as hell because less than 10% of his discography are straight up pop songs

    So what would she need to do to get in then?

    my criteria always revolved around quality (as in classic projects) influence, and technical rap ability

    all of the greats usually check two or more of these boxes
