Nov 19, 2015 I'm very confused on why people aren't taking this objectively. Drake's not a bad rapper at all. I would actually say he's really good. Come on man. Stop bullshittin
Nov 19, 2015 i'm not someone who's nostalgic for early 2000s new york and listens to 50 every weekend. but he was a huge pop star who could also rap exceptionally well and made a classic album. drake is a huge pop star who can't and hasn't. putting drake above nelly is clinically insane. he is not in the same ballpark as nicki when it comes to rapping ability. kanye is one of the most consistent artists in the history of music, and he's consistent at a remarkably high level. drake doesn't have a single album as good as graduation, which is kanye's worst album. young thug and drake should never be mentioned in the same conversation. i also find it interesting the artists you referenced are huge pop acts and/or contemporary. listen to more rap.
Nov 19, 2015 "take it objectively" says the guy who just said Drakes a better rapper than Young Thug. says the guy who just got handed 100 rappers better at rapping than Drake, and ignored the entire list except for like 3 names.
Nov 19, 2015 But you placed the "huge pop acts" in your list....of course I'm going to single them out. That was enough to render that list invalid. 50 made great songs but Drake is a better rapper. Same with Nelly. Same with Nicki. Same with Thug (tho it's entirely different styles). I think you know rap, but you let your wack a--- feelings get the best of you. Only person who is arguable from the people I mentioned is Kanye, which is a no brainer. You're playin yourself.
Nov 19, 2015 Are you r-----ed? How does me saying Drake is a better rapper than Young Thug not being objective? You've discredited yourself with that lame a--- claim right there but f--- it I'll entertain you lol He made a list. I definitely stated that the people I mentioned were the ones that jumped out to me off bat. Why make a list then complain like a p---- when I call out the rappers that you (@WPG ) put on the list I didn't say Drake was the best, and i definitely said he's not top 10. But to say he's not top 100 is hyperbole, like I said. Yall can't be this dumb man I know you can do better lol
Nov 19, 2015 I just really don't see 50 in a pure rapping sense being better than Drake, but I can at least respect if someone else thinks it. Kanye is definitely comparable but my preference is Drake, that's all I can say for that.
Nov 19, 2015 how is it a hyperbole if he actually gave you a 100. you could at least do ur part and refute more than like 3...and even the few u did point out u didnt exactly explain why he was wrong. and even if we decide to entertain you and say drake is better than young thug and kanye and 50 cent at rapping, there's still 97 other people he named i dont think its a hyperbole if he said a 100 and at least like 80 of the rapper he named are better
Nov 19, 2015 i'm just pointing out that it seems like you don't know what you're talking about. because it's so insanely far from reality that you can't arrive at that opinion through any reasonable, objective means. drake doesn't have a single song within shouting distance of any of these: http://www.vulture.com/2015/08/20-essential-young-thug-songs-collaborations.html
Nov 19, 2015 Even if 80 are better than him, it still makes it hyperbole. I haven't listened to every single artist on the list at the same depth I've listened to Drizzy, and by that I mean entire catalogs, so instead of doing an in depth analysis I just picked off the easy ones. I didn't make a wild claim that was easy as h--- to refute like he did. If you're claim can be squashed in mere seconds and you gotta backtrack and say "well of course you'd pick them, they don't count" then it's bs lol And I gave you n----s like 5 songs as examples. How is that not me explaining myself?
Nov 19, 2015 That's the problem arguing with wpg, he listens to so many d--- artists. He could very well be right about those guys being better but a majority of ppl like myself have only heard about half of them.
Nov 19, 2015 Why? You put them on the list? I didn't make the claim, you did. I said you were wrong, pointed it out why, and you didn't like that. I put 5 up, and I'm talking about rapping. I'm a fan of Thugger, I really am, but I don't think it's fair to compare them in the first place. Howeverrrr, if you gonna claim he's a better rapper not artist than Drizzy, then I've gotta come at you for that. No comparison tho? Like really? That's why I can't take you seriously and should probably stop letting you troll me lmao
