he's an actor/singer, that sounds more like a lil wayne(with a lil kanye) mimic than a real MC who has honed his craft. his flow is meh..........i thought only girls jocked drake

as far as his music goes, he has catchy, good hooks, decent delivery, and a few good lines here and there. some of the **** he says tho is just awful, ie "u can have my heart or we can share it like the last slice." that **** is super cringe-worthy. fwiw the matamatics remix of Best I Ever Had is really good. yall shud ck it.

dunno i think drake is pretty reasonable esp. when he's got wayne to complement him in a song

i am not attacking him for not being ghetto or keeping it real. I even agree that some of his music is catchy.

but the fact is that he rapped versus off a blackberry that not only he did not write, but he did not take the time to memorize. Anyone who would do that takes absolutely zero pride in their work as an artist and does not command my respect.

as jay z once said, "hustle hard at any hustle that you pick". that bitch drake is slacking.

afaik he only raps about money and bitches and fame. I would guess he has some solid RL experience with all three

This remix is legit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqLwCPWXTUM, although eminem destroys Drake, Kanye, & Wayne in this song. Save the best for last.

agreed. Rap isn't smooth, isn't creative and his voice is monotone. Got some good producers, thats it.

Not an em hater, but this verse is weak. Sounds like the silly stuff pre-slim shady, i.e. sounding funky to sound funky, nothing really creative about it.

Welcome to the 1 percentile on that one. Are you a Wayne nut hugger? Hope not. Most overrated rapper in the game today.
