Lol remember when people on here said Drake only wrote a few lines on 30 Hours when it first came out he was involved, turns out Ye was the one that only wrote a line
Add this to @op since interview got taken down

my example is proof of how it isn't. he traded genuinely great writing for bars for the sake of bars
sometimes he still pops up with a verse that resonates like two birds one stone or the last verse on Race My Mind but its rare
hes still a great rapper im just saying his pen isn't transcendent like it used to be. also even in terms of flows, compare 'because she supported since hot beats ..' to post 2015 drake
It’s not rare at all man idk what ppl be listening to

Niggas are simply not listening. If you’re not a fan of his rapping then that’s one thing he’s been rapping at a pretty high level
I don’t really think Drake’s pen is getting worse, still moments of greatness. I think he’s just assembling albums a bit more cynically and dropping these 20 track projects that give a little bit to everyone. For the type of music fans that go on forums, these aren’t going to be very good, but I’ve heard Drake himself discuss how his experiences on stadium tours inform his creative process. For the purposes of stadium tours, Scorpion’s and CLB’s assembly kinda makes sense honestly. It’s not what forum guys want, but we don’t fill stadiums.
*I exempt H,M from this critique because I think Drake really loves that type of music himself when he’s in the club and released that thing knowing how it’d sell in comparison to a CLB

his pen has not dropped off at all
his albums are just constantly burdened with the responsibility of appealing to the masses
his best albums have been when he doesn't do that (nwts,iyrtitl, tc)

my og comment was that his bars are better than ever but his actual ability to write a verse that hits isn't the same, and I feel like you're just listing a bunch of verses that prove my point
I'll give you Is There More, gold roses and deep pockets though
champagne poetry is actually the perfect example of new drake trying to be deep and emotional and failing because he doesn't understand how to relate his ultra rich successful mf struggles to everyone else anymore, which is what he used to be good at
and songs like NFITI and 8 out of 10 are bangers but dont belong anywhere near a list of truly classic verses lol
Drake doesnt have a song as good as 24 or did he write that too
Drake wrote all the music ever
Drake >>> Mozart

So he could say "some of my best friends are Jewish" later. I hope Drake speaks on his antisemitism
