Is Drake the biggest rapper/gangster rapper in the history of rap? [level 7 discussion]

[10bandz]

If Tupac is a Gangster rapper, so is Drake.

this line is kinda the center of what I'm getting at. Drake has spent a lot of time around Cash Money AND Rap a Lot and all the gangster shyt that supports those labels on a street level. Drake may not have had to fall into the gangsta shyt if he wasn't around that element but fact of the matter is, having the support and close ties to criminal elements and effectively being the capo and financier of his organization, the nikka is a de-facto mob figure.

Lets get past the fact that he didn't grow up in the hood, we're discussing the adult that voluntarily entered that lifestyle.

he came into that circle as a full grown cacnadian suburbanite

having gangsters with their hands in your pocket doesn't make you a g

can't celebrate a nikka for being a plate

in the history of entertainment you had all types of stars tied to mob figures but you continue to be real with yourself & stay in your lane

only thing that comes from the fake flexing is drama he's not equipped to handle

He holds multiple titles at once, he's a rapper, a pop artist, and r&b artist.

I'm more of a Young Thug fan but my personal favorites have no bearing on this thread, I'm speaking objectively.

nikka; what part of he SAYS HIMSELF he’s pop now?

He’s not a big rapper. He’s a big pop artist. Just because you hold two jobs, don’t mean that makes you successful in both of them because you are successful in one of them.

That’s like getting promoted at McDonald’s and then saying you also the manger and Burger King

Lets not pretend like being a plate is somehow one sided. If he's paying gangsta nikkas it's because those gangsta nikkas are on the payroll, it's a partnership of sorts. don't act like nikkas who are paying gang members are just being extorted without getting anything out of the deal.

difference is, Drake is at the top of pop and rap so.

he's the manager of McDonalds AND Burger King.

So if Taylor Swift start rapping today or tomorrow, and her fans buy her shyt (which the ya will) that must mean she’s at the top of the rap game, right? In your logic anyways when it’s clear she made her biggest fans from pop, just loeo he did. Pac didn’t have to sing one not to get to where he was

Drake main fans are women. They love when he sings. Stop

Think about, with Drake's level of money, he can order professional hits of every street level gang. Drake aint being extorted, he pays a retainer fee to the streets the same way he would to a lawyer and both would go to work for him to clean shyt up.

 

[It is a mystery]

What is a level 7 discussion?
I don't know if i have the proper qualifications and clearances to be ready for this
