Nah he's not Ye either. Ye was a legendary producer before he even dropped an album. His hip hop stripes have been set and earned for a little minute now. He has credits on legendary albums well before college dropout.

Ye's rap career was like dessert for a lot of music heads. Already was a legend.

I think he's something else. Maybe like the MJ of our time unless Abel laps him.

Or maybe just his own type of legend. But a legend all the same.

Like it or not Kanye West is a lot of peoples favourite RAPPER

We ain't talking favorites. We talking legends. Kanye was a hip hop legend before he dropped an album. You said legend status. Not "favs". I'm a Kanye Stan genius.

Drake was not cracking that class even if he wrote every single word. To me those guys are set in stone for a long time
Weird cause for me he would have had a claim of at least top 15 assuming he would have dropped a classic. Like I said all his albums pre views rank from high 7 to low 8, combine that with the longevity, features, influence, OVO, if he had stayed on the straight and narrow, he'da had a shot for sure.

Plus he has classic records. Plenty actually.

You're talking from a :flabbynsick: / geek perspective. To the average person (especially young) Kanye a legend because of his rap albums.

The same way Kanye is a legendary Hip Hop artist Drake will be for this generation.
Drake doesn't need to be with Nas etc. This nicca has put out RnB albums pretty much. His lane is his own.

We all know that's not what Drake was going for, nor what he could have achieved.

The persona he crafted was a stroke of genius; he remains the single most popular rapper we have ever known.

It's amusing to think that a scamp like Meek Mill blew the lid on something that was nearly a masterpiece.

All Meek did was tweet some shyt. His music did nothing, its not even a hip hop accomplishment. He just leaked some gossip.

Drake wouldn't swap his legacy with Meek Mill.

Drake legacy will be unique. Drake was never liked by purists by the way. Mount Rushmore my ass :pachaha:
See a doc breh :dwillhuh:
