I`m not one of these nostalgic nikkas but will there be another MC on the Level as Hov and Nas?

drake does not have any of hov's skillset.
even if he bites sprinkles of jay's shyt for his voice overs.
on top of that,..
jay never employed melody the way that drake does at all.


on top of the fact,..jay never had kitten soft rap failed rnb writing ass nikkaz around to do rap, like drake either.

I was speaking more in terms of status and place in the culture. He is the new HOV.

You cant really compare Drakes impact to hov yet. Drake is basically HOV before he released Blue Print II.

I would say HOV's prime is Big Pimpin/Best of Me part 2 days.

I think Drake as a Big Pimping type smash single in him.

Understand me sayin Drake cant be the new Hov isnt a slight against him..but its an acknowledgment of him having his own style

Rappers like jay and Nas matta fact..i should say that in the generations before Drake

Rappers werent about applying melodies in their raps forreal

Drake has an odd and very well put style where he turns his rap verses into melodies that almost seem R&Bish but what it reall y is.. is that he has this superior talent of writing verses and creating new catchy soothing melodies

Prime example of this is his 305 to My City verses

Those 2 verses when u listen to those verses u almost forget its a rap song but in actuality he is actually rapping...Drake has formed his own style...i dont think its fair to call him the new jay

Drake is on the way to creating his own legacy


OK i feel ya

Smh nikka try and discredit jay at all cost, like from from 96 to like 2005 jay music wasnt shytting on nas, I will give nas the upper hand from 05 to 2013, but jay has made some greay music in that time also

Any thread that talks bout jay and nas it turns into some fukk shyt, straight up

And that faggit ass fat nikka urban love to talk about jay busines and then he claims thats all jay fans talk about

Me personally I love nas music, and I would never try and discredit one of the greats in the culture, I feel he is second to only jay, and thats no slight on him, on any day I can go back and forth on who the best, but 6 out of ten times ima chose jay




But to get to the question of the thread, I truly dont believe so, I think since every thing is public 24/7 its hurts the artist, they dont have this greatness or mystery about them, I feel its rappers who can drop music as good, but I dont think it will be a rapper who means more to the culture as them
