man, please :stopitslime:

oh, i know what singin' is, clearly many others don't though :sas1::pachaha:
just because "so and so" says somebody can sing, doesn't mean they can :mjpls:

besides, a lot (not all!) of those "professionals" (whoever you're referrin' to) that co sign him do so because it's all about playin' nice and politics in the music industry and or almost industry for that matter. they all, for the most part, are a team and in it to win it. it's all about connections. hardly anyone keeps it "real" and tells it like it is when they in the industry because they all tryin' to make some money and never know when they might need that feature. they tryin' to sell their product


compare nothin'. i don't care if you compare drake to frank or frank to drake, both drake and frank ocean are some non singin' muthafukkas. both are 1 in the same musically. i don't care how many people try to co sign them and make them somethin' they not. those guys can not sing :mjlol:
"Because so and so says"..
Yes because so and so says, other artistst, musically educated, people who work with music, people who work at labels and on. What type of credentials do you have to dispute them :dead:


You might not like his way of singing or his music style but that's another question. Drake is not a very good singer but he's a great lyricist and song writer.

bruh, just because they say so doesn't mean it's true :stopitslime:
what i'm tryin' to tell you is it's all one big family
short of someone really bein' honest or really not givin' a fukk about callin' like it is, many of them artists are gonna stick together and work together because most are all tryin' to sell music
it's a business and what a lot of folks don't realize and know is that it's a smaller than many think it is, it's a cash cow

a lot of these so called "professionals" say a lot of shyt but it doesn't always means it's true :russ:

and i don't like his style of singin', i have no problem sayin' that. he's not a good singer nor is he a great lyricist or songwriter either

great lyricists and songwriters are people like the followin' :wow:

sly stone
babyface
prince
stevie wonder
lionel richie
rene moore and angela winbush
jimmy jam and terry lewis

this has played a role in the downfall of singin' in this modern era as well

The club is the new church. Only young demographic I see on the church are black women. Everybody else, too busy getting turned up every Friday and Saturday night .
