Eh. I can see what you mean but Srummurd seems more turnupish & partylike... if that makes sense.

None of hose moving units really. I'm happy to count Wale as a current rapper though, one who ain't seen as an OG/Older rapper. Same with Future even though he's been around for a while.



Umm nah, most the examples involve rappers recruiting Drake for a single for some buzz. Drake doesn't use a lot of rappers for singles. Do you have an answer to the qeustion. I'm trying to figure out who this person is so I can give them their props :wow:
I mean that he's been working with everyone to get a taste of their fanbase just like Jay and Wayne did before him. He's usually featured on successful rappers shyt. Or rappers with a buzz. I mean him getting to kill one of Fetty Waps nicest singles did more for him than it did for Fetty who already had 2 smash hits.

So he shares his hitmaking abilities+fans and gain their fans + trending topic, radio etc.


Obviously it's just an interesting thought to play with. If Drake did zero features would he be as big? And would those artists not be as big.

Now that's a very hypothetical and unrealistic scenario. But you get the point.

white stimulus.

see post malone. macklemore won a grammy over GKMC.
nikkas calling eminem the goat when if he was black he would be monch, ras kass or az status in terms of success.
:mjcry:

Meanwhile Post Malone is where exactly. Macklemore released an album recently that was nowhere near the success the first one was. Eminem was a nobody before Dre scooped him up.
