"I've perfectin my craft using more sess
Tryna make some cheese off a single is a process
Get It? Craft. Single. Cheese. Process.
Sit back and admire the talent that I possess."

C'mon man just stop. Drake was a monster at one point.

fixed. and because of Drake's fall off (and eventually Wayne's). You HAVE to give Jay-Z his props as the best rapper alive, living legend...etc.

okay dude. Its clear you do not understand lyricism. Shout outs to you for your effort tho. Hip-Hop needs stans like you to keep the artform thriving when our top artist(s) dont give a f/k.

Cosign. When Light Up dropped, I saw the human in Drake (and previews of the Drake we see now) and the GOD in Jay-Z

Yeah that's the first time I saw the gap too. Once I saw the tracklising for TML I was like :gladbron:.

Then I heard how Hov started his verse with the triple entendre and :dead:

He got outclassed on that. Some real Mr Miyagi type shyt.

I think his mistake though was signing to Wayne. I think for him to really maximize his potential, he needed someone like Ye or Jay seeing him thru it and overlooking his music. When it was announced he signed to yM, i appreciated the loyalty, but I was hoping he'd go to Roc Nation or G.O.O.D. If Drake was on G.O.O.D with Kanye helping him out, he'd have plenty of classics right now. When you take into consideration his overall talent level. Big Sean and the other cats at GOOD dont got it. Drake in 09 would have been perfect under Ye. Perfect.

First off you know what it is if you heard drake
Making hoes wobble like a bridge in a earth quake
Never see me out cause I live in my work place
I give you the business so button up your shirt straight
Look at where I landed
You would think I planned it
I'm just doing me and you can never understand it
Chicks get hammered
Big dikk bandit
Money flowing like a slit wrist
No bandage
Blowing purple clouds nikka
I'm so sky high
I ain't cutting anybody slices out of my pie
Out of this world though
I'm so sci-fi
And I don't sit still I keep it moving like a drive-by
I just tell the truth and so I'm cool in every hood spot
Twenty one years and I ain't never met a good cop
Me and Wayne lean like Kareem doing hook shots
Cover me I'm going in to buck you when the hook drops

I'm still over So Far Gone being a top 5 mixtape
I'm still :mindblown: over nikkas not reading that I added the cultural impact it had in my opinion. It changed the landscape, broke through the new school, and started the career of the next ( i used to think so ) great

I dont know if you saw the Ninja Turtles movie but thats Jay-Z to Drake on that track was like when the Turtles fought Shredder. It wasnt even fair....esp. after Jay-Z's first 2 bars.

honestly, Drake wouldnt be cared about if it wasnt for the co-signs of Wayne, Bun B, Khaled, Kanye..etc....to be 100 with you. Drake always been a lyricist dating back to Come Back Season but he needed that mainstream boost and the kings of that was YM, plus they had the street cred to make Drake immortal after the tons of L's he took in his first year alone. Big Seans debut had the production that Drake needed to be solidified in the realm of BIG, Pac, Snoop...etc. but it didnt have the hype machine that YM has been so famously creating for its artists. Also YM/CMB is indie to an extent so that creative freedom is very necessary in an artist like Drake's case. There was really no choice for Drake either way. Universal had first dibs on anyone that created a buzz in the YM machine.

Post a verse on NWTS better then his going in verse :sas1:
After hours at Il Mulino
Or Sotto Sotto, just talkin' women and vino
The contract like '91 Dan Marino
I swear this got Michael Rapino boostin' my ego
Overly focused, it's far from the time to rest now
Debates growin' 'bout who they think is the best now
Took a while, got the jokers out of the deck now
I'm holdin' all the cards and nikkas wanna play chess now
I hear you talkin', say it twice so I know you meant it
fukk it, I don't even tint it, they should know who's in it
I'm authentic, real name, no gimmicks
No game, no scrimmage, I ain't playin' with you nikkas at all
My classmates, they went on to be chartered accountants
Or work with their parents, but thinkin' back on how they treated me
My high school reunion might be worth an appearance
Make everybody have to go through security clearance
Tables turn, bridges burn, you live and learn
With the ink, I could murder word to my nikka Irv
Yeah, I swear shyt just started clickin' dog
You know it's real when you are who you think you are

Waay much better than that dumb nikka hashtag/ simile rap drake was doing before that only appeals to other dumb nikkaz

This sht actually takes technique :banderas:

Actually, I'll give you that. That's his best verse on NWTS. And probably the only really decent one. but


Why do I feel so alone
Like everybody passing through the studio is in character
As if he acting out a movie role
Talking bullshyt as if it was for you to know
And I don't have the heart to give these bytch nikkaz the cue to go
So they stick around, kicking out feedback
And I entertain it is if I need that
I had a talk with my uncle and he agreed that
My privacy about the only thing I need back
But, It's hard thinkin in polite flows/
When Stephano Polato suits are your night clothes
And Jordan sweat suits are you flight clothes
And you still make it even when they say your flight close
Eyes hurting from the camera phone light shows
Life was so full, now the shyt just been lypo'd
Always said I'll say it all on the right track
But in this game you only lose when you fight back
Black diamond bracelets, showing you the basics
I can't live and hold the camera someone got to tape this
I make hits and like a bytch that's married, I ain't miss
24 hours from greatness, I'm that close
Don't ever forget the moment you began to doubt
Transitioning from fitting in to standing out
Los Angeles, Cabanas, or Atlanta South
Watch Hov's show, embarrassed to pull my camera out
And my mother embarrassed to pull my Phantom out
So I park about 5 houses down
She say I shouldn't have it until I have the crown
But I don't want to feel the need to wear disguises around
So she wonders where my mind is, account's in the minus
And yet I role around the fukking city like ya highness
Got nikkaz reacting without a sinus
Cause what I'm working with is timeless
And promoters trying to get me out to they club
And say I have fun, but I can't imagine how
Cause I just see my ex girl, standing with my next girl, standing with the girl that I'm fukking right now
And shyt can get weird, unless they all down
And so I stay clear, we from a small town
And everybody talks, and everybody listen
And somehow the truth just always comes up missing
I've always been something that these labels can't buy
Especially if they trying to take a piece of my soul
And Silvia be telling Taz damn Drake fly
And he just be like silly motherfukker I know
That was your bad, how can you pass up on 'em
He just take them records and he gas up on 'em
Wayne would probably put a million cash up on 'em
Surprised no one ever put your ass up on 'em
Oh they did Po, at least they tried to
And that's what happen when you spitting what inside you
But slip up and shoot the wrong fukking video
And they think they can market you however they decide to
Nah, before they told me to 'do me'
And don't listen to anybody that knew me
Cause to have known me, would mean that there's a new me
And if you think I changed in the slightest could have fooled me
Boy, and to my city I'm the Two Three
Drug dealers live, vicariously through me
I quit school and it's not because I'm lazy
I'm just not the social type and campus life is crazy
Understand, I could get money with my eyes closed
Lost some of my hottest verses down in Cabo
So If you find a blackberry with the side scroll
Sell that motherfukker to any rapper that I know
Cause they need it much more than I ever will
I got new shyt, I'm getting better still
Little nikkaz put my name in they verses
Cause they girlfriend put my ass on a pedestal
Future said cause it's Ye shyt you better kill
And I think this got that making of a legend feel
Problem with these other nikkaz they ain't never real
Yea, it's all I can say

is 4909304930x better than that Pound Cake verse

ANd nothing u post will be better than

You underestimated greatly
Most number ones ever, how long did it really take me
The part I love most is they need me more than they hate me
So they never take shots, I got everybody on safety
I could load every gun with bullets that fire backwards
You probably wouldn't lose a single rapper
nikkas make threats, can't hear 'em over the laughter
Yeah, that's cause I'm headed to the bank, nikka
Sinatra lifestyle, I'm just being Frank with you
I mean, where you think she at when she ain't with you
Wildin', doin' shyt that's way out of your budget
Owl sweaters inside her luggage, you gotta love it
Damn, this shyt could go on a tape
bytches lovin' my drive, I never give it a break
Give these nikkas the look, the verse, and even the hook
That's why every song sound like Drake featuring Drake
Tr8, Y pree? Why is it always me?
Got us watchin' our words like there's wire taps on the team
Cause I show love, never get the same outta nikkas
Guess it's funny how money can make change outta nikkas
For real
Some nobody started feelin' himself
A couple somebodies started killin' themself
A couple albums dropped, those are still on the shelf
I bet them shyts would have popped if I was willin' to help
I got a gold trophy from the committee for validation
Bad press during the summer over allegations
I ain't lyin', my nikka, my time is money
That's why I ain't got time for a nikka who's time is comin'
A lot of nikkas PR stuntin' like that's the movement
And I'm the only nikka still known for the music
I swear, fukk them nikkas this year
I made Forbes list, nikka
fukk your list, everything's lookin' gorgeous
Without me, rap is just a bunch of orphans
But if I stay in the shyt, there's a bunch of corpses
And me and my dread nikka from New Orleans
Stashin' money like hoarders off multi-platinum recordings
Eat it like I’m seated at Swiss, Sotto, and Joso's
Nothing Was The Same, this shyt for Easy and Cocoa
This shyt for Kareem, this shyt for Jaevon
This shyt for Julius, Milly Mill
Boy we do this shyt for real
All them boys in my will
All them boys is my Wills
Anything happen to pop and I got you like Uncle Phil
Weezy been on that edge, you nikkas just need to chill
If anything happen to papi, might pop a nikka for real
Comin' live from the screwface, livin' out a suitcase
But I'm feelin' good, Johnny got me pushin' two plates
My weight up, I refuse to wait up, I started a new race
It's funny when you think a nikka blew up after Lupe
nikkas treat me like I've been here for 10
Some nikkas been here for a couple, never been here again
I'm on my King James shyt, I'm tryin' to win here again
A young nikka tryin' to win here again
Man, what's up


That triple entendre alone puts this verse above anything else u bout to post :banderas:

Universal had first dibs on anyone that created a buzz in the YM machine.

He was in a rare case though. So Far Gone blew up before he even got signed. Drake signing to YM was a loyalty move. He wasn't entitled to sign anywhere. He signed that June 09, and he wasn't entitled to sign anywhere. He got all those features on SFG as a unsigned artist and no label paid for it. He just had connects. I still think he should have signed to Ye'. Long term it would have been a better decision. Ye was a huge Drake fan early too. I remember him saying Drake scared him as an artist. He was hoping Drake would sign to him.
