This is true, but this also brings me to the Ye aspect of it. If you look at it that way, Drake and Ye are no different from each other.

I don’t know how many f***ing Fat Money references there are from the Donda/Donda 2 era?

I’m not even trying to be super pro Drake here but I’m trying to think back to the references that have leaked for Drake and I can’t think of one that was outright meant to be a song for someone else’s project since Take Care. The only thing you can apply that to is The Weeknd and Take Care. It’s common knowledge that a good chunk of Take Care was supposed to be on HoB/Thursday/EOS (Crew Love namely being that there are multiple references for that). The only other song I can recall Drake outright taking is Wednesday Night Interlude but even then he just left it as is and made it a PND interlude on his project.

i was wondering the other day:

how long do you think drake hasn’t written his music?

were all those raps on so far gone given to him too?

how deep is the rabbit hole?

For Jay-Z there is
Lupe writing on the black album
Kanye feeding him ref tracks IE payroll
future doing stuff on the joint album and shining and drunk in love which yes all involve beyonce but lyrics end up where they end up...

For Nas there is
stic.man
Jay electronica
QM doing ideas...

These moments / examples are all off the top of my head and they are 2 of the greatest rapppers of all time.

One day hip hop will grow up, I think. It's 2024 we global.

I think Drake has written a sizeable amount of his music. I don’t think we can take away his ability to write completely. He’s a good writer and he’s proven it before.

I do think however, that his versatility in flows and deliveries is definitely in question after this. Who knows which pockets and creative choices really came from his mind when Yachty writing Jumbotron and Cash Cobain writing Calling For You for example.

Cash Cobain confirmed it was AI. Let's not start ignoring facts to fit the narrative. The Yachty and Vory songs are on 2 songs when he's dropped 60+ in the last 3 years

I’ll just say this

Think Drake lost the ability to claim #1 OAT after 2015 (fair or not) that has done irreparable damage to his writing credit. From there the last two beefs combined with the amount of tracks floating out there is really starting to make it hard to objectively place him in the top 5. He’s still my favorite artist and I have no doubt his most intimate work was through him, but I can’t argue as people decide to knock him further and further down the list

I think part of it though is that Kanye even if he doesn’t write all his lyrics, still seems to be very involved in the overall vision and production of his albums. Nobody is out here really calling Ye one of the best rappers anyway.

Stans of Drake shout from the rooftops how this man is the greatest rapper ever but it’s hard to stand by that statement when Drakes contributions seem to be questioned. And it’s not like he’s really a producer either, although he has earned a credit here and there.
