You're opinion (especially yours) does not equal fact. You still stan a subpar mixtape that only has 2 decent tracks by an irrelevant rapper.

Wayne discography shyts on Drakes and it's not even close, same with Ye and even Eminem got a couple good early albums. Drake isn't in the same category, compare his music with Britney spears, nsync and backstreet if you want a debate, they got the same amount of writers and subject matter.
Thats what Stanley does not understand. Drake has no catalog. Where is his Tha Carter, where is his College Dropout, where is his Marshall Mathers LP? It's been 10 years and he doesn't have a classic.

Forever came out in 2009. Since then Kanye has released

-My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
-Yeezus
-The Life of Pablo

No one on Forever has matched him in terms of quality albums. Let's be real.

to Kanye stans, yes.

Everyone else, not quite. Not saying y'all have to agree with me but once you take the stannery out of it, this shyt is actually debatable.

My brother grew up in Ye's era. College Dropout was big for the middle/high school kids. He loved that shyt. I haven't heard him play any Kanye in YEARS, and certainly none of that mid 2000s shyt. Meanwhile, my bro's always talking about how Drake is one of the greatest to ever do it. Quotin Drake lines word for word in random contexts.

His stannery aside, it shows a crucial point - Ye's audience outgrew his music. A poll was done on the Coli, where most posters are in my brothers age or below (the type that grew up to Ye's music) and they couldn't even say that Ye's first two albums are classics. And those shyts just came out if you compare it to something like an Illmatic.

10 years from now Ye's discog is gonna be looked at as a piece of kitsch from a bygone era.



Stan is a good song. Not a banger. and frankly, when was the last time you listened to Stan? Who's REALLY listening to shyt in 2016? Didn't Chris Rock make a joke about this at some point?

Drug Ballad and Dont Give A fukk are garbage. They always were.

Role Model is great. Top 3 Em song and a banger of sorts. OK, so Em has 1. Where's the rest? You forgot about Guilty Conscience. Let's give him 2. And then what...

Stop the madness bruh...drake has not made any collection of music fukkin wit ye's first two maybe three albums...I stopped at 808's(maybe that was his third:jbhmm:)...but nah, ye's discography is the only thing worth keeping Kanye "checkout worthy"...the music was dope. Drake not seeingtthat. Oh and no such thing as a "pop rapper"...he's just a pop artist...

Eminem, Wayne and Kanye are pop artists first, rappers second.

Where do you think Drake learned that shyt from?

Saying that, what makes them pop artists over any other rapper that has breached the mainstream? I haven't listened to Wayne's or Kanye's entire discography, so excuse me if I'm wrong, but at least they don't have a track which a chorus longer than a verse:mjlol:
Nothing screams pop more than that:francis:

I think Eminem had the best verse, followed by Wayne but Drake was the star of the song because he also had a hot verse and he killed the hook...

Drake's discography is as good if not better than Wayne's. I'm a big fan of both and I saw Drake surpass Lil Wayne in real time, back when Wayne was my favorite rapper.

Take Care and Nothing Was The Same are arguably better than any Carter album.

Real talk from a legacy standpoint Drake may never surpass those rappers but I don't think it's that blasphemous to say he's with them peak for peak.

2 of those 3 are :trash: the one good album there is possibly the most overrated and forced classic in hip hop history.

Since '09 Drake has easily put out better music than Kanye.

Damn hip hop fans have to realize how long Drakes run has lasted....longer than 2pac and biggie....think about that so he been at the top long enough for a generation to graduate high school and a four year university....so those who hold on to hip hop top spots like baseball writers better take notice Rakim is not the best of all time like the Source said he was ...and I'm not a Drake fan at all but i get it

Nikkas act like Drake doesn't have songs with no hooks where he spits for 4 minutes straight on all his projects.
