David Bowie is a rock artist. Kendrick is a rapper. David Bowie said Kendrick influenced black star.

This is a bad argument

Is that not what a sample is?

I don't think y'all know what influenced means

Ye has been jelaous of Drake since find your love blew up

“ ‘Ye has been an influence to me but not too much— not in my drum programming. I just think he hit something for me on “Say You Will” that I fell in love with and I think I’ve been running with it a little bit. I’m not afraid to admit that. “ - 40

When the producer and the rapper are influenced by the same person

lmao wtf was he talking about

I think if anything Ye showed drake that he can easily move from pop to rap and still be successful. kind of gave drake the comfort to not conform to one genre. after that drake just took off

anything related to this old ass vid should be removed

he created rap and r&b

How can a different genre influence another. I guess Kenny Chesney influences Lil Wayne. Nelly was making duets and experimenting with singing way before Ye.

Are you stupid? People draw influences from other genres all the time

i bet there are stans itt capping for this too

“ Kanye's 808s & Heartbreak was not the driving influence on the tape (aside from "Say You Will"). "I wasn’t listening to 808s & Heartbreak when I was making So Far Gone. I was listening to Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks and The Smiths and stuff like that."

@02Shaq

You can be influenced by literally anything no matter what it is then shift it in your own way lmao

There’s nothing to cap for. Drake said it himself on multiple occasions

nah I feel like probably later on during the yeezus phase cause ye was being rebellious and still wanted the popularity

that kanye created rap and r&b? source??

yall cant be fr right?

Exactly

People confused this with Kanye birthing Drake’s entire style which is true

Drake has been singing before Kanye made 808s

That's not what he said

Are you stupid? You just said that you can’t draw influence from separate genres and then show me a quote of Drake saying he was influenced by the smiths.
You’re not even being consistent

There’s literally an 808s beat on the albUm bruh. Just stop

That Kanye was his biggest influence

ah s*** @BlackSlug here now we wait for Quadra .lol

that's not what kanye said in the video tho

ight y’all instantly lost with this one
