Old cats on the cold do not reflect the relevant fans of today's hiphop, sorry to inform you on this.

That Rakim, Jay, Pac, Nas or Drake for that matter are great rappers is not a fact. It's subjective, opinions.
And Drake cannot compare to Ras, Pacs or Nas's greatness.

Their shyt organic.

Drakes was manufactured.

Which leads to the point of old heads, which is correct.

The youth of today could really give to shyts about hip hop.

Long as its catchy, its considered dope.

Stop it!!
They ARE pushing Drake to be more than he is.
That's a theory, I'm not that deep with my hate to reach that conclusion. I don't think most normal people would come to it either.

I wouldn't place Nas in the same category as Rakim either. Rakim is the father of emceeing as we know it. Nas is a great rapper from another era, perhaps greater.

Imo it's just hiphop bars of the past 30 years from 3 rappers labeled as he dopest by their peers. Every rapper out names Drake as their favorite rapper, along with Kendrick and Cole. They might've had K. or Cole but seeing how Drake already has a deal with them it was probably an easy choice.

are you fuhkin nuts?

I really think some of y'all are mentally disturbed.. Ol delusional, not in touch with reality ass nyggas

Drake is one of the biggest artist out right now. The thing is people don't buy rap albums but they still listen to rap music.

That's your opinion, what the fukk does has to do with anything is a mystery. And I believe that the youth of the 90s fukked with anything that was catchy as well or Kriss Kross wouldn't outsell Nas, Mark Wahlberg would not be a rapper, Puff Daddy would not be one of the biggest rappers, Hammer would not move more than Rakim, Krs and Ice Cube has done in their careers together. I'm not even going to start talking about all the one hit wonders.

There's wack rappers with their lil followers but they are neither respected nor moving major units unless you drop like 4 straight bangers like Fetty Wap.

Do you know it was lil kids buying that Kriss Kross shyt?

It was new, diff and very much a gimmick that JD was able to captilize off of.

Dont confuse hip hop fans with a popcorn demographic.

What happend to Kriss Kross after the fact?

They fell off.

Marky Mark was a plant to.

Whuch eludes to the reasons again you think Sprite just so happend to put Drake up with PUBLIC OPINION of who is considered the greats.
