As you can see Drake is a modern day Lauren Hill, but with a penis


Nikki, Wanye and Drake should make a Fugees type group album :myman:

Drake is a very rare talent & though most Hip Hop Elitists don't respect him he is one of the best overall artists to come out in the last 10 years only 2nd to Kanye IMO unless I'm forgetting someone...

:what: Lauryn is an all-time great singer, has 2 classics, Grammy for Album of The Year.

Drake is a simp fakkit who uses tons of auto-tune to "sing", can't play any instruments, and is a simp fakkit.:rudy:

Yea, I think reason people, well, dudes at least don't like him is because of all the simping and other suspect things he does in regards to women, which is understandable :ehh:

If he made LL/Ja Rule type songs with his raps and tone down the simping he would be alright IMO.

Drake sucks at singing unlike Lauryn Hill

I like him but he's just too damn corny and forced a lot of the times

Just because Drake sings and raps doesn't make him comparable to Lauryn Hill. That's like saying Chris Brown is a modern day Michael Jackson because they both sang and danced.

Lauryn Hill is a LEGENDARY artist, a once in a lifetime type of talent who was a singer, rapper, producer of the highest order at her prime. Drake is a very good rapper and decent singer who has managed to become successful, but he has not transcended the genre the way Lauryn did. The Miseducation was a classic from top top bottom, just an undeniable work of genius. Drake hasn't attained that.

Agreed, he really acts like a white person and but he tries to force that nikka persona.

Eminem acts like a regular white person and he sold more records than anyone in Hip Hop history, a white rapper has a song that's #1 on the billboards without being signed to a major.

Drake acting like his regular cac self wouldn't really hurt his success in music :ld:

While I enjoy Drake's singing, to compare him to Hill vocally is hilarious to say the least :heh:

:whoa: They both may sing and rap, but they're on different levels and in different lanes

The comparison isn't as far fetched as it sounds. Drake just doesn't have the depth that Lauryn has in terms of songwriting ability. He's really a talented dude, but I would love to see him expand his subject matter. I guess that may come with age.
