Seriously the only dudes of our generation that have as many notable accomplishments as him our Drake and Kendrick. Don’t care if you dislike the music or not cause that s*** is opinionated at the end of the day.

Starts career off dropping 2 classic mixtapes.

First artist Jay Z signs to Roc Nation

Got passed the Roc a Fella chain by Jay Z

Debut album went number 1 one of the biggest rap debuts. Sold 200k first week tripled actual projections.

Dropped head to head against Kanye in 2013 eventually outsold Kanye 4 weeks in and got the number 1 album in the country.

2014FHD arguably his first classic album. Made huge impact making 6 figures per show. About 4 times platinum with no features. And iconic tracks from top to bottom. For example Intro, January 28th, Wet Dreams, 03’ Adolescence, Fire Squad, A Tale of 2 Citiez, G.O.M.D, No Role Modelz. Apparently, Love Yourz

4YEO honestly his best album as far as concept and substance wise. Yes I can see why people find it boring due to the laid back production. But it fit the Vibe and Ascetic of the album perfectly. Also his biggest selling first week of all his albums. And again platinum with no features. The documentary along with the album is actually incredible as well.

He kills every features he hops on. Notably Pretty Little Fears, A Lot, The London of recent.

He’s running Dreamville which has been an a extremly successful label.

That’s it I’m high af and don’t feel like adding anymore to this.

Wanted to add that he’s probably the best live performer in the game.

No

Ye, drake and Kendrick exist

Top 3 In the most mid rappers yes

They finna drag you OP

he has the talent but his albums (not individual tracks) are always kind of underwhelming based on what I've heard

Not as consistently good as Drake and Kendrick, although I'm sure there are tons of ppl who will say that the former isn't that consistent either

Drake
Future
Cole

Only KTT nerds hate on Cole for no reason

Easily number three. All those ppl that pretend it’s travis are delusional.

Drake album making hasn’t been consistent.

You a basic b**** that’s what you are

He’s top 3. People irl acknowledge it. These nerds on here hate Cole cause they think it’s the cool thing to do. Follow the leader ass clowns.

Kendrick
Drake
Cole

Drake, Kendrick and who?

Cole isnt even close to being top 5 let alone top 3

lmao the top 3 rn is uzi yb and baby

the man who outsold drake with a christian album

Kanye. Jay. Future.

literally add whoever you want to that 3rd space but its definitely not Cole

top 3 in what?

If that makes you feel better since you haven’t listened to it in 3 months

dude does literally no promotion and like almost no bundles then drops what is essentially anti-radio boom bap and sells like 300-400k, i don't know how anyone can deny how big he is outside of the internet circlejerk

JIK>>>KOD

Can we include Jay in the 'current' Top 3 when he very rarely puts out music? Interesting question because it starts to involve Kendrick and Cole as well. How active do they need to be currently to qualify?

He’s towards the lower bound of the upper limit

J Cole turned into one of the most genuine rappers imo
