I'm Canadian and understand Drake's significance to the game but this will always be true. The Blackberry freestyle then the ghostwriter exposure pretty much solidified him a performer/ entertainer rather than a rapper
If the Blackberry freestyle wasnt a clue..

I doubt if having ghostwriters will make Drake any less of a artist in todays realm of hip hop.

Like..the only people who are going to bytch about Drake ARE the traditional hip hop heads..

And will only be behind closed doors.

You cant call people out now days without being labeled a "hater".

We've seen cam freestyle plenty of times before though.
just sayin though... gotta keep everything 100.


but lets get something out now regardless...ain't no one freestyling off the top no more anyway. In Fact over half the time dudes that were"freestyling" in the 90's and 00's were spitting writtens too.

so who gives a fukk

thats true...but no one was expecting drake to come freestyling off the top. but damn...at least have a verse memorized or somethin. tht would'v been waaaaay more acceptable than what he (and troy ave) did. im just pointing how the goal posts shift when a certain artist isn't as favored as the others.

And my point was that if we gotta go after one we gotta go after all...or none.

You're comparing two completely different situations....that honestly you should be able to tell the difference between. People do this all the time to give Drake a pass.

Reminds me of the Twista thread....dude said he had 2-3 songs towards the end of his career ghost written, more or less for fun....."oh, it's the same as Drake"....nevermind Drake had ghostwriters on his very first mix tape.

If people don't care about ghostwriters or reference tracks :manny: but the same people that claim it don't matter will come up with the most bizarre comparisons to justify it. It either matters, or it don't.

no, the situation is still the same. The circumstances around them may be different. But I'm saying why is OK to be selective for some rappers and not others.

I ain't stannin for Drake, and check my history, I NEVER have stanned for drake, IMO this isn't about Drake.
Its about fairness.

The over "stanning" and over "hating" in the Booth is just nonsense.

and lets dead that "ghostwriters" stuff. Its stupid and overused.

Many many rappers in current day and in history have used writers to help with their music. full credited writers. Not ghostwriters, no one was hiding the fact that the writers were in the credits.
