Dont start discrediting the man now.

Yeh Drake lost mad credibility but to say he aint talented is a lie. U actin like his whole discography is ghostwritten(and even then, hes still got that charisma pause which is a rap skill).

Whoa kid, you're admitting that if Drake's whole discography is GW'd then he gets a pass because of his charisma? Then put him in the league with Will Smith, Hammer and Vanilla Ice. And this argument will be done.

Flow, song structure, written for you

vs.

7-10 lines inserted into a song where it's dude's song, where he's basically helping dude recite a story.

Come the hell on. Just admit the guy's a pop star and not the best rapper alive and it'll be left alone.

Drake is the best rapper alive

Das not wut I said. My bad couldve expressed myself better.

I didnt mean to say id give him a pass but that he would styll be considered talented on some lvl. Jus like Eazy-E had shyt written for him but he was still a great spitter in terms of voice charisma and delivery. Emceeing isnt jus writin lyrics.

Then put him in the same league as Eazy E bruh. And yeah, MCing IS writing your own shyt...dude freestyled with his phone first and ya'll backed him up with the written argument...I could almost let that shyt slide(back then when we used to do this shyt to fukk around nikkas would smack us if they knew that shyt, but that's another problem). MCing is flow, writing, etc etc...dude just put his own charisma on a song already made for him. Will Smith. Dr. Dre. Eazy E.

Honestly, this whole argument can be deaded simply by listening to 4 records:




pit this against the Quentin reference track.^^^^^^





^^^^^^pit this against Drake's puppethead/dummy reenactment.

Keep in mind 4 years had passed back when years meant something when ODB did his version.



It's all in the eyes, Chico.

Cruisin’
As someone else mentioned, why were all the reference tracks removed from all forms of media after this fiasco broke? I actually like Quentin Miller's 10 Bands more than I like Drakes 10 bands and Know Yourself. But if there is no shame in Drake using reference tracks, and it's bee common place in hip-hop, than why the removal of Quentin's material? Just an honest question, no need to come at me with snarky flat-top references. This isn't a Drake diss. That Quentin Miller 10 bands sounds dope to me.

OB4CL is a Raekwon album featuring Ghost. IIYRTITL is Drake's album not featuring Quentin Miller. If anything, this proves that Rae penned all his stuff on his own album, unlike Drake.

And I thought Kanye stans were the most obnoxious bunch in the Booth :heh:
