Drake has successfully put himself in that Hov category where in a few years, everyone’s top 2 will be Hov then Drake

Just off the commercial run and people feel like to be “objective” they have to concede it

It’s all propaganda though. Drake and Kendrick are both barely cracking top 50

N2Deep
After Dark
is there more
u with me
flights booked
middle of the ocean

drake could have a revolving top 10-20 of different songs depending on the mood

definition of multidimensional there’s no argument unless you literally just don’t like the music and atp there’s no discussion to be had lol

Who's your top 5? Legit curious, not being a hater

• He’s worked with French Montana

sales
popularity
the idea of “scaring the hoes” and somehow music that women of the nightlife prefer is better because of that lmao
and most importantly Drake is racially ambiguous visually (like Michael Jackson in the 80’s) and doesn’t touch on any social issues while Kendrick unapologetically is gonna talk about black s*** which all plays into both of their appeal with certain demographics lol

Back to scaring the hoes Kendrick sometimes makes music that you can’t just throw on the aux.

Drake is the ultimate safe rapper and on top of that is better than good/great so it’s all of the things that make people love safe inoffensive rappers but he actually relatively nice.

I don’t rank him or Kendrick above one or another but that’s the answer op

Where we gonna have to disagree but I see why Drake is more accessible to most ppl. Just think his topics are very surface level

Name all the Kendrick songs from the past 5 years you consistently spun

You can tell he doesn't actually listen to his music because you're barely scratching the surface here. Drake might be the most versatile rapper in the genre's history. That's a skill Kendrick doesn't have

I agree, that's my most played album by him

Kendrick got the longest charting rap album ever, the most critically acclaimed rap album ever, one of the highest streamed rap albums ever that won a Pulitzer, a soundtrack to one of the biggest Marvel movies ever(Black Panther) and an album that initially sparked the highest grossing rap tour ever.

And he's more skilled as a rapper and has more substance to his music than Drake's.

This "objectivity" you're speaking of is not as set in stone as much as you think it is.

the thing about this tho is that its kinda weird for niggas to be at home playing drake party songs if that’s what you’re implying lol

They would be the deep cuts on both sides

Morale is a miss relative to the others

2pac had no misses, his 5 albums are washing Kendrick’s 5 and it’s not close. Ghostface and Scarface have basically no misses in much bigger catalogs too, none of their albums are beneath Morale

I consider Kendrick half an artist at this point because he and drake are both just giving you one extreme. Too much of anything isn’t good. Their predecessors in rap were just much more balanced. In Kendrick’s early career he had balance but he leaned too far in one direction

Will y’all ever stop this man lol?

No one is talking about Is There More the way they do about Look What You’ve Done lol

More Active

More Diverse music

Because why not?

Hey I’m easily a bigger Kendrick fan but let’s be honest. No one wants to rap like Kendrick, want Kendrick to be on their song for a hit. Also when it comes to charting I can list a whole bunch of records for Drake. Kendrick and Drake have probably the same amount of classic albums but Kendrick shooting a higher percentage cause of his low release rate

Because we love you & we love this conversation

Scarface
Nas
Ice Cube
Ghostface Killah
Black Thought

Kendrick’s entire brand atp is that he is deep, more people hate drake for being accessible i feel like even his own fans who want less trap beats he rapping over

cake, cake cake cake cake cake

Yeah ok

Well i meant between damn and mr morale but yes also those

And I can argue for and against this. Drake is the most versatile rapper when it comes to jumping on new sounds, new waves and he can switch his rap style like no other. But he ain’t that versatile when it comes to subject matter. His sound is versatile, his content isn’t
