Video has got me comparing the two and I honestly cant think of a good reason why Drake won't see himself as the new Jay.

He has the wittiness of Jay in his lyrics

His flow is as good and in my opinion better than Jay

His catalogue is as good as Jay Z's when he was at the same stage


So is Drake right? Is he the new Jay?

I'm sure there are other similarities between the two that I have overlooked but I will let ya'll bring it up :jbhmm:


:what: hell no at this

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
higher level then jay ever was musically

and im a bigger jay fan
He is a pop star singer, as far as hip hop goes, he will never reach the top 20. When it is all said and done, if he can stay consistent with the singing and decent songwriters/lyric writers, there is no reason he can't eventually have his own lane, but Jay-Z's whole persona and career path is a lot different, can't really compare the two because Jay was always considered more than an artist from the jump, independent style, while it's pretty well documented that Drake has 3 or 4 bosses in his pockets at all times.
You write it for him, he will perform the fukk out it, so like I said, he can have his own lane in the industry, but Jay is different.
When you are talking about levels in here, there are levels to levels. Fame, and popularity, he probably already surpassed Jay. Talking hip hop, will never even be in the conversation as Jay

fukk outta here nikka

Take Care isn't a classic and even if it was
no way in hell is it up there with BP or RD in anyway

Only on the Internet is Take Care not regarded as a true hip hop classic :mjlol:

If we go track for track, I cant understand how can anyone not put the album up with BP and RD
