    (actual eminem lyrics below)
    Is it gay to play putt-putt golf with a friend (Yeah)
    And watch his butt butt when he tees off (Yeah)
    But uh, I ain't done yet
    In football the quarterback yells out hut-hut
    While he reaches in another grown man's a---
    Grabs on his nuts but just what if
    It was never meant, it was just an accident
    But he tripped fell slipped and his penis went in
    His teeny tiny little round hiney and he didn't mean it
    But his little weenie flinched just a little bit
    And I don't need to go into any more details but
    What if he pictured it as a female's butt
    Is that gay


    but I bet you call Eminem a lyricist

    Anyway, rappers who pride themselves on lyrics have a right to feel this way. It's kind of a longstanding principle to write your own s--- dating back to when Rapper's Delight was supposedly lifted from Grandmaster Caz's notebook. That has no bearing on whether Drake is a good writer or not. It's about integrity.

    This is dope. Eminem has way more cringey, forced punchlines these days. Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house.

    People think being lyrical and technical are the same. That's where the confusion comes in. Drake can be very lyrical at times.

    Drake can obviously write. He's written a few songs for other artists. Royce's point is can he be considered a lyricist if he got help. It all depends on how much 'help' Quentin gave Drake.

    You're literally parroting me one verse. I can do same to Eminem and discredit him as a lyricist.

    Drake a amazing lyricist? Nah. Is he a good entertainer yes very much so. I enjoy a lot of Drake but I can never really say he can spit.
    In the end though, who really cares? Just take it as it is.
