    Still the laziest song ever recorded. Drake pulled that chorus out the recycle bin.

    I could type "b-----r" into Soundcloud and get better results.

    Edit: Typed in "Ring" ha

    That's legit the first song I ever heard Future in. I thought he sounded like a mix between Young Jeezy and TPain back then lol.

    not as is, its overhyped filler on watba (which is unfortunately basically a majority of the tape lol)

    i think future couldve made it great though. he has a way of twisting phrases like diamonds on me dancin into something special. which u kind of get from the song as is, but not to its full potential

    Sounds like something a struggle rapper biting Drake would've written.

    I agree Future can make anything sound dope, but Drake's no slouch and even he couldn't make it sound passable. I'd rather Future spend the two minutes it takes to come up with something better tbh.

    At least SFTB had a great beat and was catchy as f---. Big Rings just hurts my ears.

    Big Rings >>> Started From the Bottom

    Started From the Bottom lacks even a solid verse. It's just an overall bad/lazy song that Drake should have kept in the vault.

    What? Started from the Bottom was the blueprint to IYRT. It was a very important song for him artistically. Big Rings sounds like he madlibed a hook he actually took the time to write on IYRT.

    The bridge alone on SFTB is better than any moment Drake has on Big Rings. It's a push on the hooks since they're both repeating the same phrase 10 times in a row, but there's no comparison on the verses.

    Man what a time to be alive
    You and yours vs. me and mine
    Are we talkin' teams? Are we talkin' teams?
    Oh you switchin' sides? Wanna come with me?
    Look at the smile on me, look at the owl on me
    I do not chase girls, but they run a mile for me
    Say she gon' ride for me, I'll buy the tires for you
    This game is different, you only get one shot when n----s gon' foul on you
    Man f--- 'em all, man we want it all
    Don't get too involved, we gon' knock you off
    And to top it all, I'm with all the dogs
    It's a new season and we still breathin'

    vs

    I done kept it real from the jump
    Living at my mama's house we'd argue every mornin' n-----,
    I was trying to get it on my own
    Working all night, traffic on the way home
    And my uncle calling me like "Where ya at?
    I gave you the keys told ya bring it right back"
    n-----, I just think it's funny how it goes
    Now I'm on the road, half a million for a show

    Boys tell stories about the man
    Say I never struggled, wasn't hungry, yeah, I doubt it, n-----
    I could turn your boy into the man
    There ain't really much I hear that's poppin' off without us, n-----
    We just want the credit where it's due
    I'mma worry about me, give a f--- about you
    n-----, just as a reminder to myself
    I wear every single chain, even when I'm in the house
    Cause we...
