Freddie Gibbs: "Drake is probably the best songwriter of our time right now"

[ManBearPig]

nah bruh. im pretty objective when it comes to this but were talking songwriting not just bars.

To be a great songwriter you can be on any kind of song and fit seamlessly.

I've heard Lupe & Kendrick both fail @ this. Especially with the R&B guest verse.

Kendrick on "how many drinks" & "crime" were both

Drake could make the necessary adjustments to make it fit

Talking out your ass

Freddie one of the most overrated artist out there

fixed. too many nikkas cling on to his gangsta image in hopes of living vicariously through him. he cool, but not that nice to me. pinata had dope beats tho

 

[MINT]

Drake can't write a good song to save his life

 

[blackslash]

An example of his almost unmatched songwriting

Days in the East



all those rhyme patterns and cadences

"girl ur so mature ALREADY"

"girl u would prolly lie on the stand for YA BOY"

 

[intilectual recipricol]

Drake definitely is the best song writer now...
that muskrat worth is an average songwriter and rapper. As for Frankie, he aight.

 

[Non Sequitur]

i love how gibbs haters literally gloss over the fact that he's addressed that issue multiple times in his songs

Oh, he "addressed" it, did he?

Well, that's all I needed to hear

Millennial generation is 1985 - 2005. Won't know if jes the best until the next 20 years past. We got to get through some Michael Jacksons and princes first. Then see if he stacks up. Or its just a bunch of fake hype causedby millions of internet marketing g dollars with fake account profiles on msg boards.

 

[Statik]

he learn from the best Kanyetothe

Freddie one of the most underrated artist out there

refute what i said tho. Lupe & Kendrick are better at rappity rap bars but not at songwriting.
actual songwriting has a longer reach than rappity rap bars.
has either lupe or kendrick written an r&b song?

I have no idea how "gangsta" Gibbs is but it's as hell to throw out "he's the son of a cop!" when his dad resigned when Gibbs was 9, due to a police corruption case:

Police Scandal Rocks Indiana Steel Town as Officers Are Accused of Drug Thefts : Crime: Dealers say Gary vice unit members stole narcotics and money. Such corruption is not new to the city, which has seen the department shrivel in size. - Los Angeles Times

Fred.

Drake hasn't released an outstanding album yet so nop, he isn't a good songwriter.

 

[Mindfield333]

Take Care & Nothing was the same were straight imo...

but, people who actually rap and make music also feel that drake is a great songwriter...

their opinion holds a lil more weight than a cat on a message board.

But opinions are opinions

 

[Drake is God]

There is no doubt in my mind
