Toronto rapper Drake unexpectedly and suddenly releases a new project. What his reasoning was is up for debate, but what's clear is Drake's sounding more confident than ever on a series of somewhat minimal, dark, moody, trap-inspired pop rap beats with contemporary R&B change-ups.

They expected you to hate Drake because of past comments you've made and scores you've given his last projects, and they also hate Drake so they came here to watch you bash him and feel good about themselves because a popular critic agrees with them, but in this case he doesn't. So, they're being little bitches like haters tend to be.

When people like Lupe Fiasco and Eminem spit incredible and intricate verses he goes out of his way to try pinpoint one or two "corny" lines in the whole album...but then give props to Drake for a series of really mediocre lines? Okay...

@nonofya8022 9 лет назад

This is problem with you hip hop fans on youtube. Theres more to music and being an artist than bars. "Oh my gawd, Eminem has punchlines about punching pop stars and can rhyme five syllables". Lets be honest, he hasnt had a great album since TES.

@kvndmusic 9 лет назад

Nonof Ya Of course there's more than that, nobody said otherwise. I just pointed out that Anthony shits on Lupe for having one corny line among hundreds of great ones, and congratulates Drake for stuff way weaker than that (and you can't say Lupe's latest album didn't have the full package or "more than bars").

@chingonr 9 лет назад

Exactly...and that is the problem with Anthony, he's inconsistent and I'm not sure if he's really listening to the albums especially when the album came out that same day. Any one of Lupe's albums are ingenious and takes multiple listens but here comes Drake with his mainstream mediocre lyrics and it's a better album than someone intelligent like Lupe. I don't understand, but hey it's just his opinion right.

@samuelgriffin6084 9 лет назад

Because Drake has better flow than Em's had in over 10 years, and the entire album is better than 3/4ths of Lupe's discography. And Drake does drops some nice lines, and unlike Lupe and modern Em, he can switch up his delivery in a ton of different ways. And everyone gives Lupe credit like he's some kind of genius, when really he's just a slightly above average wordsmith who's unbearably pretentious about his hip hop skills. The thing is, Em and Lupe are selling themselves as lyricists and offering no other versatility. And they aren't really offering much at the only thing they're trying to do. Were as Drake is presenting himself as a rapper, singer, and pop artist and killing it by being competent and balanced in each aspect. The criteria for what makes a successful album isn't the same for Drake as it is for Em and Lupe, and it shouldn't be. You're comparing apples and oranges.

@chingonr 9 лет назад

Samuel Griffin Reading your comment makes me question if you have heard any of Lupe's or even Eminem's albums because Drake can't touch both of them in any way as far as making music, the only thing Drake is good at is making a chorus and singing mainstream bs for the simple minded folks and females such as yourself. I rarely hear Lupe and Em on the radio, yet Drake is on 24/7 in like every single station non stop, what does that tell you? Especially when he's signed with Lil Wayne gtfo with that bullshit. The only reason people fall victim to Drake's music is because you don't have to think about his lyrics or read into his lyrics because any dumb fuck can understand it, yet rappers like Lupe, Em, Nas, etc, take multiple listens and even rap genius. So to say Lupe is a "slightly average wordsmith" is a slap in the face to real hip hop and i highly doubt if you have heard Lupe's music and i don't mean the ones on the radio.

Wu Tang I just don't understand the logic is all. Plus I post comments like this cause I know that everyone reads the comments in his reviews so I might as well say what I'm thinking.

@chingonr 9 лет назад

Wu Tang Except Anthony has thousands of subscribers that will be on the Anthony wagon and listen to anything he recommends, for example in his Tesuo & Youth review he mentions that the song 'Deliver' was kind of corny not sure his exact words but he used that as a way to critize the album yet 'Deliver' had like triple entendre, obviously he missed that point of the whole song 'Pizza man don't come here no more' was also a play on word for 'Peace of man don't come here no more', i guess my point is is that Lupe speaks the truth and never talks about money, hoes, etc. yet Drake, a mainstream rapper who is known for selling out gets a better album score and not to mention this is considered a mixtape as well.

I got more enjoyment from picking out stubborn nostril hairs than i did from listening to this album. Drake is like the kid at skool who gets offended real easy then runs home so he can write a facebook status consisting of shit poetry about how his life sucks. His lyrics are about as hard hitting as a water balloon. Rappers like ice cube tore the music scene open with razor blade flows, not afraid to cause some damage. While drake is the kinda rapper who would bring a cheese sandwich to a knife fight. THINK about it!*

My ears can't take when Drake holds long notes like on 6god with the "bEeEeeEEEEntlyyyyYYyY" *shivers* I cringe just writing it. I was being a bit harsh when I first went into the album because it's drake and yeah, the dude doesn't have much variation to the substance of his words but sometimes you just want to listen to something catchy and fun and how did you say?
