The fact yall think Drake never writes

Even Kanye writes or freestyles atleast to form a concept or flow

Stupid as sh*t lol Drake literally came in the game writing for Dre and others

Ye is on video giving lyrics to Jay, but these dudes gon make some arbitrary distinction between the verse and the hook

04:45 PM

i forgot what song it was but i was playing a Jcole station on my apple musi and some random 21 song came on and i ssid to myself "Damn this sound like drake.." (in terms of flow) I didnt even know it was from their new album.

I still havent listened to that bullsh*t.

Drake last few albums were weak to me but when I really take a step back and look at it, he’s one of the most talented, most solid and well rounded guys hip hops ever seen.

As for writing, dude has penned hits for goats and is known inside the industry as one of the hardest hiphop & r&b writers. He gave hits to Beyoncé, Kanye, Alicia, Wayne and others. The people with the budgets to go to drake, go to drake.

He’s maintained his spot at the very top of the food chain for longer than damn near anyone else.

He’s kept the same team eating around him - 40, chubbs and the rest of the ovo ngas. Made all them fools millionaires. No major defections from the squad. No former best friends calling him out for cheating them or leaving them behind. Not a single big name artist I can think of can say they held it down for their day ones since day one. Ngas grow, discard old ngas and get new ones. Instead Drake picked a team he could grow with.

He’s maintained loyalty to the people who put him on even tho he’s become much bigger and more influential than all of them - Wayne, Baby, the Prince family.

And for a soft Canadian actor, he’s stood his own against Meek, Common, Pusha and been trading back and forth subs with Jay and Kendrick for years. His beef resume is solid.

Weird as it sounds bro may go down as the most solid big name hiphop artist of all time.

I really wish y'all would stop putting Drake in the hip hop genre he's a pop artist

Drake's writing team is working extra hard this year

They need to unionize and demand more recognition

Bro is worth maybe $300m w/ 30-40 employees.

The “Drake” brand is not longer a person. It’s a huge company and I wouldn’t expect him to write every bar at this point. Just like I wouldn’t expect it from Jay, Nas or anybody else.

Rappers saying they write 100% of every song on every album is one of hiphops dumbest lies. It’s up there with rappers saying they write their lyrics in their head and never put pen to pad or type them.

This unrealistic sh*t is not expected in any other music genre. Music is collaborative.

Nobody writes 100% of their songs, rappers usually get help with the hook

I believe jay n naz write their raps, and it's easy to hear someone style in his verses, if Jay z wrote a song for drake, people with good ear and knowledge of Jay z style will easily tell you jay wrote that

But I understand your doubts tho, rappers lie all the time

I mean… tell me where I’m wrong. I’m open to a different opinion if you have one.

In my opinion, he lost the battle to push because his kid & adidas deal was outed via Kanye backdooring him. As far as bars, he stood his own.

As far as being solid, dude has the same team around him for a decade+ and I don’t know of any ovo, mob ties, young money or cash money people saying he did them dirty in that timeframe. I also can’t think of another artist at that level that has that type of track record for being solid. Most had to snake a few people/ deals to maintain their position.

Paint the picture you want homie. I can paint an entirely different picture of a racially ambiguous Billboard darling who found rather uncreative formulaic way of topping the charts for sure while completely sacrificing every ounce of artistic integrity when it comes to hip hop and being a true emcee.

Talented no doubt, but heavy on the high quantity low quality music, almost zero willingness to challenge himself musically (talking hip hop not the hnvm bs) and almost no real substance.

Either way I guess it's up to the viewer and what they ultimately view as HIP HOP. In my view Drake would never be close to my top guys in terms of Hip Hop from Pac, Nas, on down to Kendrick n Cole.

But to each his own though.

Sidebar: he got OBLITERATED by Pusha T in every way including lyrically, no excuses or caveats to that. Mans was dissected like a frog in high school
