He has one lane and he cant merge into any other ones

I'm not interested in you judging really . You're clearly a stan alias not capable of being objective even if you hate Drake if you're objective you can admit drake quotes resonate the most in Hip Hop.

I don't think kendrick has ever had a track as quoted as say back to back. Just a random throw away not attached to a project.

All facts no debate breh. But as I say you're an alias so you aren't really trying to admit you're wrong regardless of info presented or what you know the truth to be in real life.

I'm wasting my time Matter of fact. Let me just mute you so I'm not tempted to engage the BS :laugh:
So no bars :sas2:? Why would it matter if I'm a hater breh?

Drake quotables vs anyone you mentioned wouldn't even be close.

Even drake haters know this.
I thought even the haters couldn't deny his bars? I don't give a fukk about who gets quoted the most, that just happens cause he's popular. I've never heard anyone talk about "Oh Drake killed this verse, Did you hear what he said?" Never. I'm just asking for you to post some of his best bars , If they're so undeniable I don't see why it should be a problem. Are you even a drake fan breh? Why you on his dikk like that anyway? :pachaha:You really gonna block me cuz I asked what drakes best bars are instead of posting a few :dead:

Kendrick is following the Kanye blueprint. Love it or hate it, each Kanye album sounds different. His first 3 albums had 3 distinct sounds. 808s and Heartbreak changed music. And then on MBDTF he basically brought all his styles together. While each Kendrick album has some type of narrative/concept, the MUSIC is different. Sec80 had a very lush sound that mixed jazz and boom bap. GKMC mixed live instrumentation with west coast vibes and trap. TPAB was a drastic shift to jazz and funk. And now DAMN. feels like a a melding of boom bap, trap, and some older sounds (reversed drums).

Drake is following the modern Jay-Z blueprint. Love it or hate it, most of Jay's modern albums have been incredibly reactionary to trends. BP3 was a collection of all the artists who are hot, and meshing their styles with Hov trying to rap like a young dude. MCHG was a wack attempt at trap. BTW this isn't the first time Jay has chased trends...he did the same on Vol 1 when he tried to make a Biggie album.
:yeshrug:

Who is Drake, as an artist? Is he Houston Drake? Is he Toronto Drake? Is he UK Drake? Is he Jamaican Drake? Which Drake is coming next?
:francis:

I know who Kendrick is. I know who Cole is. I know who Sean is. I know who Future is.

How is he progressing as a rapper?
By incorporating Dancehall into his music. And I'm not saying, it's good; I'm just saying that's how he's progressing as an artist. Also, he's less monotone than when he first started.

You guys realise that using a co writer for a song doesn't mean you don't have the ability to write at all right? Drake has written hit songs for himself and others.

He's an artist. You guys also realise how much goes into creating music. I'm not sure if you guys are actually stupid to think sh*t is so black and white or you just hate Drake. I'm genuinely interested to know.

Go watch a random interview of producers who've worked with Drake and how amazed they are by dude. I realise dudes ignore all that content but stick to stuff that suits there hate aganda :laugh:
Why is there 0 footage of drake creating music in the studio?

I can find footage of dozens of acts.

Shall we post drake reading off his blackberry again?

The irony is people are looking at drakes 2013 work as his peak....but wasnt he hated in 2013 on thecoli also?
People are quick to go back to old work when it doesnt matter anymore
I think drake has been making trap type rap that strays away from his ability
And i think he shown incredible growth as a universal artist
2013, refresh my memory. Was that when weeknd,pnd or qm was making his songs?
