Ten years from now, will Drake be considered a legend?

[360dagod]

Im 27 and Take Cares been one of my fav albums for a minute now...I didnt even like Drake for a while, growin up in the 90s where music was made that contradicted Drakes style. But being older now, Id rather not here all the violence and trash talk all the time. And girls aint tryna hear that either, i finally have girls complimenting my music taste now. Sh*ts crazy, that never used to happen

Are they black?

I don't think so, none of his music is timeless. He has that mindset like Khaled to make "hits" and not meaningful timeless music. I played NWTS once and got all I needed, I only even liked 2 or 3 songs. Also what type of legend? He damn sure won't be a rap legend with all his singing

I still like Thank Me Later.

 

[Tropical Fantasy]

yes even though he doesnt have a classic album. he legendary status will be like LL Cool J's imo

i dont even know what i'll be listening to 10 years from now.....how am i gonna decide this?

Are they black?

Negative. I dont want no problems bud

 

[Diunx]

Be proud about having the same music taste as girls brehs

10 years from now when he's fallen off everyone who hates him now will be talking about him with reverence like they do with Ja Rule, MC Hammer, etc..and all the artists that most "real hip hop heads" hated back in the day but love now. Nostalgia is something else.

Wait when did Ja Rule suddenly get props from everyone? I missed that.

lol...Im just saying...most really have bad taste...just how it is

I have opened up to some mainstream stuff, but women in my age group wont be complimenting me anytime soon...

Which means I'm doing it right

This board unfortunately

He'll still be around and will still have fans, but I won't be one of em. I tried to give his music a go more than I would for most artists because I like honest, alternative, mature hip hop. But his shyt is just so wack to me. Yeah he ain't talking thug shyt but his music is still incredibly shallow and contrived. I can't rock with that shyt.

The opinions here can be weird at times. Like the one about how Keith Sweat couldn't sing or that the Juicy beat was garbage. Or the one about Missy Elliott not being a good rapper.

I think he will be. Drake has some DIEHARD fans. He's tapped into that young suburban light-skin nikka demographic the way Eminem did with the alienated white trash demo.

probably TML was aight

Take care was classic weeknd footprints all over it

NWTS was great imo

the hits wont stop either

I think he will get his in due time..

50's influence on the masses has dwindled and if people are honest, they will give Ja his rightful props....

Whats crazy about some of ja's old stuff is it would still sound fresh if it was released today....

Suburban white girls LOVE Drake. He's on that Black Eyed Peas/Pitbull ( to both) status.
