To make pop hits? I'd probably have to side with Chuck on this one.

His ability to move units is better, maybe, but in terms of the quality of the music... Fuck, no

You're seriously going to compare Drake's chart toppers with songs like All Falls Down, Through The Wire, All of the Lights, i, Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe, just to name a few?

I like Drake, namely Take Care, but come on now.

Tree, I think he has a point, people do listen to these webzines despite the fact that they too are also chatting shit 95% of the time.
they make shit up for clicks and people click

doesn't mean anything actually happened in the first place

In terms of ability he is obviously not on par with a Biggie or Kanye or Kendrick


while technically not any different, phrasing it "they're not on par with him" gets the point across better ; )

i is a fucking incredible song breh, I'll give you that the in studio radio edit is kind of tame but the live version on the record is the tits. But yeah I get what you're saying.

Quality is subjective anyway, temperature. Drake is the better cross-over artist, does Kendrick have better bars than Drake? Generally speaking, yeah. But can Kendrick appeal to the broad fanbase Drake has? No. They're two very different beasts, one is a hip-hop/rap artist through and through, the other is a mix of the modern 'urban' musical culture, primarily rap/hip-hop, r'n'b with his take on 'pop', too, you could say.



You're not gonna catch Kendrick dropping something like Hotline Bling and moving units, you're not gonna catch Drake dropping something like i, either.

You know that Drake is a rapping chameleon? He has this ability to basically copy other peoples' flows - or whatever flow/delivery is hot right now. So criticising his flow is basically the same as criticising almost every popular rapper's flow in the game right now.



Also, So Far Gone was the last Drake release that can justifiably be compared to 808s & Heartbreak.

which goes back to what i was saying in that drake isnt very comparable to kanye or dre like the review says because he brings a heavy rnb and pop influence



no one would say kdot isnt the better rapper though, but they def respect each other given their work together

I wholeheartedly agree that Drake is the more popular artist but confusing quality with popularity is a slippery slope where you just end up espousing the argumentum ad populum fallacy.
