Lets be real here nikkas is scared of Baby. They'd be scared in the 90's too.

:russ:

You can't be serious. Nobody would give a fukk about Baby back then. People barely give a fukk about him now. People ran up on him in Cali looking for Wayne and he wisely hid in his car and let his security handle it.

This is all true but none of this would save him from an ass whupping back then, regardless of who started it.

If he kept to himself I agree he'd be fine.

explain











'


its plenty of others that made a killin being themselves and didnt fall under that umbrella and ate good some better than pac,biggie, and the wu


warren g was himself his entire career and moved more albums than biggie


u cant make the 90s something they werent, if you wasnt in no bullshyt you ate and move units with no problems


C+C music factory wasn't Hip Hop they were House/Dance with a hype man dude going "yes yes y'all" every now and then. They were also a one hit wonder. Snow is not Hip Hop and was a one hit wonder. Tag team were one hit wonders. Drake doesn't sound a thing like Outkast, Digable Planets, get real. There was an audience for that no question but Drake is as far from conscious/"Afrocentric" as he is from 90's Gangsta. Drake could definitely do New Jack Swing like Wreckx N Effect but the genre died a horrible sudden death by about 92 so Drake would have about 3 years tops to "run" anything in that lane.

If you're suggesting Drake could be a one hit wonder like almost everyone you mentioned I won't question you I agree but dude wouldn't come close to "running" the genre. He'd be AT MOST as successful as those Tootsie Roll cats :russ:.

hell no, and i don't even think drake is bad at all. rap music is just more tolerant of a soft dude like drake now than it was in the 90's. there's room for an artist like him now.

Drake would have been fine in the early 90s and late 90s. Mid 90s he could have existed, but he might have been the Bush Babees status. The mid 90s were grimey at the top. The world was just different and the rap at that time was a result of it. The world right now, no matter what conservative politicians or China tries to tell you is a much more peaceful place. Again, the rap reflects that. That was just a desperate era and the competition was reflective of that. I think a guy like Kendrick would have understood that. Beside, some Canadian like Choclair or Kardinal Offishal would have pushed him off the stage and he would have never resurfaced.
