He is being truthful. Drizzy did bring lyricsm back in a pseudo-intellectual way tho.
Char. the God says it all the time, I hear drake say things that have never been said before. Also, the relatability of all his lyrics is infinite. Everybody has emotions, and most of his music tend to border on that topic of emotion.
Dudes ability to not be back in a corner is insane. He could release any type of music and not lose credibility unlike 99% of the game. If meek dropped a love song, he'd instantly lose his G card. The fact that you can't really define drake works wonders for him in this generation. top 10, IMO.
