Thats not what you originally said 2words and this “throw something at a wall to see if it sticks then dance around that point” gimmick you keep doing gets the f*** old.
You (and everyone else) bringing up other rappers to muddy the waters and broaden the term “getting help” means like y’all don’t know the goddamn difference between flows/styles versus getting ENTIRE VERSES penned for you.
Your broke ass study bars for a living right? Study that one.
When the entire verses is songs like Mob Ties idk man
And a big thing I believe is, being in this generation we have access to these drake references but we don’t have the same access to the creative process of others
Nas had whole verses written by Jay Elec I’m not disqualifying him no matter what the case
Never said that never happened I’m just saying that wasnt the original point lmfao
I also said niggas never wrote for wayne lmao
It’s almost as if
The higher ups have all come together as a collective to try and end his run and send him a message
so Drake is simultaneously one of the most valuable assets to his label and music industry in general but also the “higher powers” are all collectively plotting to end him
Ok so Nas disqualified too
So far we got Nas Drake and Ye disqualified
Post your top 10
i never considered ye a rapper rapper, who would?
i dont got a 10. my love for music is too disparate for the list s***. i have favs thas it
that nigga is a deluded 50 stan don’t even bother lmao
I was a hot boy fan before i was a 50 fan what is your point?
This would be it for me imo
I get recording reference tracks for the most marketable songs that need mass appeal to keet quotas or whatever
But if i hear a ref track for any of his timestamps, tuscan leather feel no ways type tracks
@edumist how tf that mandem morph into top 5 worst users in the span of a month behind drake
drake does things to the brains of relatively normal people that needs to be studied
Only thing that'll truly break my heart is if I find out he isn't penning his most personal/lyrical songs. He can get assistance for all these other vibey tracks as much as he wants because it's clear what he's really going for are the flows and cadences. And even if he wasn't using any of their lyrics but only used their cadences, that'd still count as them co-writing those songs with him so it's really whatever.
Isn’t a big part of Drake’s skill his ability to adapt his flow and cadence to so many different styles and sounds? How does finding out he’s using writers for that not affect his reputation?
Yall see that?
Deflection from the topic at hand
If leakth.is was around in the 90s then who knows what we would’ve got
niggas dont even be listenin to who they put in they top 10 fr but claim it anyway
like nigga you do not listen to scarface like dat
the issue is people thinking stuff like this at all what are we doing
wym? his backing vox are on the song thats why i said that haha
reeses reeses dont be reeeeediclus is like. 100% pure PND, nobody else does s*** like that. as a fan of both of them i was not surprised at all that pnd wrote most of this song
i dont rly care if someone is helping drake write his r&b songs, i def understand the issue with something like mob ties where he also said he wrote it after he was mad at the pusha situation
but i think its just a philosophical divide, some people care and its rule number 1 for them, others dont care at all. people are never gonna agree about the importance of writers in the studio and at most its just a point for them to use against whatever artist they wanna argue against
there is no moral compass it’s industry standard since forever
the thing is no one is going around calling people like Taylor Swift or Bruno Mars or Lady Gaga one of the best rap lyricists of our generation, etc
Hip hop has its own rules
Exactly. If Drake wants to use writers, that’s cool.
But you can’t simultaneously use writers and call yourself one of the best writers/lyricists of all time
This would be it for me imo

Check out no Sundays on we still don't trust you
Gotta give drake his props for this one though 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wtf yall yapping about on Nasir name, stfu on Nasir
who are you??!!!???
i personally dont care about nas
but that nigga puttin s*** on nas jacket fr talkin bout jay elec wrote it
Isn’t a big part of Drake’s skill his ability to adapt his flow and cadence to so many different styles and sounds? How does finding out he’s using writers for that not affect his reputation?
This is where the whole versatile argument is shaky to me. Not saying he doesn't do the pop songs well, he does, but...it's just funny
i personally dont care about nas
but that nigga puttin s*** on nas jacket fr talkin bout jay elec wrote it
That nigga yapping, leave a mad man be, that's Nasir, you gotta realize there are sick people itt, it's Nas, the greatest rapper of all time, Nasir, talmbout Jay elect, it's Nas
niggas dont even be listenin to who they put in they top 10 fr but claim it anyway
like nigga you do not listen to scarface like dat
That’s part of the whole idea behind arguing that people like Ye and Drake should be welcome in the conversation tho
They’re who people actually listen to. No one cares about the help or “they’re not rapper rappers”
To more casual listeners, the idea of them not being top 10-20 and putting people like Scarface over them just because he wrote his stuff would be crazy
And I’m starting to come around and see validity in that. It’s hard to argue Scarface over Kanye and Drake. And same for a lot of “goats”

i dont care if niggas have their s*** written for them fr
i care when you lie and hide behind the s*** like you did
