I'm not really a huge fan of any of these 3.
Drake > Kendrick > Cole
Cole has a few standout cuts I like but otherwise his music is drab to me. The Game analogy of him being a fan and trying to replicate what he's liked from other already established artist rings true.
I'm not a fan of Kendrick vocally on most tracks. Musically GKMC bangs but if you don't feel an MC's voice you're not going to rank them highly. I do LOVE B Don't Kill My Vibe though, and respect his message. His voice is just naturally small. When he tries to get loud there's rasp instead of boom like a KRS/Chuck D/Pac. Not feelin it. For my taste he should stick to the mood music like Poetic Justice etc.
Drake has the most songs outta these 3 that I like, he's got a few different vocal styles that work for him and let him make a few different types of songs that I like. If Kendrick had his vocals he would destroy him though, cuz Drake makes cringeworthy lyrical/theme choices at times. Both of the other guys edge him out there, but I rank Drake ahead of them purely off vocal talent.
Big Krit > all of them

Kendrick really has no competition
Cole > drake
This is all that matters at the end of the day.
All 3 of them are mediocre/borderline trash but I can't hate on this order.
edit: You know what? These 3 are so mediocre that none really stands out from the other. If you really think about it. It's like comparing street meat vs Instant Ramen noodles vs McDonalds.
At the end of the day, none of these dudes got it
