the "big three" being cole, kendrick, and drake is simply how it shook out culturally

future was hot, but he was in stark contrast to their styles. people didn't compare him to them, for whatever the reason was :manny:



reading this thread reminds me that for some reason the coli is very critical and dismissive of cole. this is a quote of mine from 2021
only on the coli do I see this wave of cole negativity

sales and fan engagement/feedback dismiss all the pushback on him being up there

I was in highschool from 09-13 cole was way more loved and well received than kendrick and his first two albums weren't even that great :mindblown:

FHD came out when I was in college and he was super hot then. all his songs with miguel from 10-18 were radio hits couldn't escape those songs if you wanted to.

he slowed down when for your eyes only came out, was hot when KOD came out for about a year

how is someone being at the forefront in his own lane for 7-8 years out of a decade not mt. rushmore worthy... of that decade??:mjtf:

In 2012 Future had multiple hit records and a platinum album, he also had writing credits on Beyonce and Rihanna smash singles. He's been a star as long as Kendrick and Cole have he just reached another level with the 2015-17 run.

That album didn't go platinum until 2022.

Imagine if I tried to put Missy Elliott up there with Nas and Jay Z and used her credits for Beyonce and Aaliyah to make the case.

Another thing I've noticed is that these "award shows" play Future every time he drops a project. He either gets cheated or not even nominated.

That first paragraph is my whole point. Cole Should've been the first one to throw Drake out of any top rapper conversation for committing the biggest rap sin. I understand fans these days don't care, but when a lyricist like Cole doesn't, it's concerning

B/c Cole been in the studio with Drake so has many rappers who have attested and vouched for Drake's pen.

Making a song and writing verses aint the same thing. they all use writers to make songs. Yall act like we aint seen video of Ye crafting Jay's Lucifer. Half of the beef Drake has had in the industry is due to him not giving songs to nuccas. Thats a fact

:manny: If it has to be a big three then realistically Drake shouldn’t be there. Drake gets by on having the best machine behind him.

Cole is the best lyricist
Kendrick is the most creative and artistic
Future is the most consistent at making music

Drake is?????

good at all three categories

Nelly made a diamond album but he wasn't seen in the same category as Jay or 50 or even TI or Ludacris in the early 2000s. Too much artistic difference to really be in the same category. It's really :mjpls: the way rappers/Hip-Hop is only seen as 1 thing in the first place, but that's another story


Well tell what sounds...
like a toy ideal slash mecca envy based story then....




Have at it,...eh.

Every song and genre of popular music made since racks is future.

Bop is future
Country is future sonically meets Katy perry and juicy j
Drill is the house o matic meets u phi u house music type nikkaz mad at bop.
Mostly all of rap is future moving forward
Mostly all of pop music moving forward is future.

Mostly all amateur homebody sheltered future wannabes are future biters.

All of pop is generally future.

All the production is what if I made racks. Or some other element from a future record.

After that artist already bit racks.

All song writing in general in any genre is future.
Drake is a bite.
on future as far as direction and sonic composition.


To the point. No one in the general population. Even knows about weezy prostitute flange at this point moving forward. That is how powerful and industry changing rocks is. That future flopped trying to make anything originally.
that did not followup racks in pluto.

all of music in general.
that is pop.
has or is a direct bite of some element Of racks.

Ppl always trying to force future into that line up :mjlol:


Future is actually bigger than them.

The other artists are the gw plants.
Or a jayz troll joke on Nas.
World music version of ghost written weezy formula

All of music in any genre is a bite of some element of racks.

Or trying to be slick and bite another element of a future record. So it can not be looked like as racks.
