Drake is wack.

Here's why:
1) Poor rhymes.
2) Lack of music theory.
3) Poor lyricism.
4) Jewish

Replace best with soft and I'll agree.

Drake the type of dude who plays GTA, picks up the hookers, and drops them off in a better neighborhood, after telling them "here's $500, go make yourself a fresh start. You don't have to do this anymore."

Seriously, Hold On I'm going Home was a R&B song and sampled a R&B record to make the loop for the melody. He did more singing than rapping, just stop it.

Homes you could have at least made up your own joke...

Greatest hip hop artist of his generation, and it's not even close.

Since 2013, Drake has dropped an album + a plethora of hit records while Kendrick Lamar is still somewhere performing ***** Don't Kill My Vibe... :| Come on now. They're not even on the same pedistal.

Real talk? Nah, his lyrics are garbage without a bit of thought put in.

For laughing at (in a good way) as light entertainment? Yeah sure, he's okay. Naw new friends naw new friends.

I can never tell if all you rap fans are being sarcastic or not. Do people actually like Drake or is it like some kind of in-joke? Do people actually like Kanye West or is it his ego that everybody finds hilarious and makes him famous?

I genuinely don't get it.

Drake lost his rap cred when he made that annoying ass song called Versace.

Kanye can make really good music sometimes. Drake is pretty average most of the time though

I wish I could appreciate it :/ feel like im missing out, I listen and the lyrics are just like- lyrics i'd hear in parodies of songs.

"Leave-a-pretty-girl-sad reputation, start a fight club, brad reputation"

"I wanna **** you hard on the sink
After that, give you somethin' to drink
Step back, can't get spunk on the mink
I mean damn, what would Jeromey Romey Romey Rome think?"

I looked up this jeromey romey romey rome and it's a reference to a realllllly obscure sitcom from the 80s. UM?!

really? thats good wordcraft to some people? xD

Drake makes music to be rich and popular. Kendrick makes art.

OT: J. Cole, Tyler, the Creator, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Logic, all better than Drake. Drake is a musician. These men are hartists.

His lyrics and subject matter are subpar to Kendricks

I'll agree with you on that to a certain extent. But whether you want to accept it or not; fact of the matter is, Drake is still running the game. Regardless if he isn't the best lyricist out there. Rap has become more then just lyrics... either you accept that or forever bitch about how every mainstream artist sucks. Anybody can write good lyrics down on a notepad, but the same can't be said about hopping on the mic and making actual quality music. And that's what Drake does on a constistent basis.

Cole and Kendrick, who are among my favorite 3 rappers. You can say these two have more lyrical ability then Drake; but you can't say that Drake isn't capable of holding his own in comparison. He already has. So that's where consistency weighs in. Kendrick Lamar. Drops his debut album late 2012. 2013...? A single verse on Big Sean's Control track. Half way through 2014...? Nothing. And the same goes for J Cole. I'm not even going to go out of my way in listing everything Drake has done in the last two years, other then dropping damn near two classic albums. He's simply the better artist.
