Drake isn't the best rapper, nor the best singer. But I'll be damned if he doesn't make the best music of any rapper-singer :yeshrug:

Drake or Lauryn Hill.

Drake doesn't have the best vocals but he's a good song writer and has a ear for melodies.



:dwillhuh:

Dude has like 5 tones he can use his voice in, and they all add different elements and vibes to songs.

He has his normal rapping tone
The singing tone he uses on all his singing tracks
The deep voice he uses on hooks like on Uptown and Up All Night
The raspy voice that he used on In The Morning, and the transition on Connect.
And this new screaming shyt he uses on Know Yourself and his newer shyt.

How is he not the most vocally gifted rapper of all time ? :dwillhuh: Who else can use their voice in that Many ways while making quality music?

So there's no influence?

Jeffrey Atkins is Aubrey's daddy...

Drizzy should change his name Aubrey Atkins :dead:
No, there's no influence.

If anything, Ja influenced 50s style.

Even Ja and Irv said on the Breakfast club what Drake is doing is nothing like what Ja was doing.

Drake is harmonizing and being melodic. Ja did what every rapper does as far as singing hooks and some verses here and there he just got some huge hits out of it.
