    It's like if Pac was depressed, living in Houston, and sang better.

    Well Drake ripped off enough of Houston in his day that I think it's a fair point to make.

    I f---ing knew either you or WPG was gonna come in with something earlier than 808s, lol. But I meant it in terms of popularizing it/making it "cool". I would hazard a guess that most people who are Drake fans have heard 808s but not that Z-Ro album (myself included).
