Drake will stall at a milli, WTT will still be bought from years to come and i dont like Kanye or Jay anymore but like any hiphop fan we gave that shit a listen.

no one trying to listen to Drake, just from observation.

WTT will sell more.

At one point Ja Rule, Nelly, Lil Jon,etc were outselling people and 5 years later they were done. Greatness is about consistency, quality and longevity, not being hot, you can name a 100 hot artist from the last 10 years who never had longevity.

15 years from now MBTDF is still gonna be a great album, same for College Dropout. Meanwhile Take Care will be Rule 3:36 status

So what you trying to tell me is that even though Drake has clearly surpassed Kanye in sales he won't have longevity in the game because you are comparing him to artists hes clearly better then? I want to know if that makes sense to you from your perspective because when I think of Lil Jon I think of someone who's claim to fame was producing and riding a sound(crunk music) until it was just no longer relevant. I don't think of Drake when I think of Lil Jon I think of Andre 3k, I think of Pharrell when he was on everyone's hook.

I mean if you want to bring up Nelly and Lil Jon at least know the circumstances behind why those individuals fell into the background.

Unless Drake starts beef with someone who just so effortlessly gets everyone to cosign him like 50 did with Ja I really don't think this YMCMB train is going anywhere for a while.

Drake will most likely fade due to people stealing his style for his spot. The Emo Rapper spot is becoming more and more available by the date. Next thing you know Kendrick Lamar is the new sauce. And somebody else is doing a A Drake impersonation for fame.

Kanye is harder to be because he has the metro-sexual lover of music feel that helps him out.

He's bigger popularity wise, and the fact that he isn't as arrogant helps him out. Plus Kanye doesn't really make songs for the bitches like that (unless you wanna count 808's)

Drake is not a better mc than Ja Rule, people might think of Ja as the female friendly song rapper but Venni Vetti Vecci is a dope ass hiphop album. Where Ja Rule fell off and where Drake will probably fall off is, he is extremely redundant and never switch his style up. Clown Ja all you want but talk to me when he makes a better album than VVV.

Drake is no where fucking close to Andre 3000, Outkast is probably the most diverse group ever and made efforts to switch their sound, flows, and be genre-less. Drake ain't nothing but a one trick pony so far imo, dude style never changes.

The reason why Ja, Nelly, Lil Jon,etc fell off is because they became redundant and predictable. Until then, Drake is heading down the same path. What Ice Cube, "a new nigga will replace you next year".

these type of threads must be created by people that only started listening to rap in 2007. they have a short attention span!!!

Drake got the YOung money machine behind him, Kanye came up the hard way even financing his own video Through The Wire,, back in the day when his label wouldnt give him a push!

Drake is not in the same class as YE ask the question in 2014 and we'll see if its relevant

Kanye is way more popular than Drake, has Drake had a rollingstone cover yet ? the mecca of entertainment magazines (nas never had one)

Kanye is known globally for his music, euro culture fashion, and diva behaviour ........ Drake is not even that big in north america yet alone globally. Only big thing Drake's been associated with globally is the rihanna 'whats my name' track and thats it. He aint even the biggest in his crew.

1. lil wayne/nikki minaj
2. lil wayne/nikki minaj
3?

because Jay Sean is known more globally (from the uk) than Drake is, and Drake is not a head liner nor a dude who has paparazzi appeal. Kanye is like a paparazzi's wet dream.

Kanye gets the 'puters putin' ......... Drake's album is all on youtube and still people not checking for it.

Does this really mean anything?

Wiz Khalifa had one.

Kanye is known globally for his music,

Drake as well.

euro culture fashion,

He dabbles in other things.

It's like saying Diddy is more popular because of Ciroc.

and diva behaviour .......

Which has done anything BUT help his sales. Check the drop from 808s to MBDTF.

Drake is not even that big in north america yet alone globally.

He's debuting gold, off of projections from TWO DAYS of sales.

Only big thing Drake's been associated with globally is the rihanna 'whats my name' track and thats it.

Ahaha.

He aint even the biggest in his crew.

First true thing you've said.

Drake is not a head liner nor a dude who has paparazzi appeal.

Rihanna opened FOR DRAKE.

Kanye is like a paparazzi's wet dream.

Because he loves to shove his foot in his mouth.

Drake's album is all on youtube and still people not checking for it.

Possibly cause they're obviously out buying it.

Put it this way: Club Paradise (not on the album nor is it a single) has more youtube views (8mil) than Monster (6mil) that has a triple feature, was a single, and had a contriversial video.

Enough said.

1. Wiz is bigger than Drake, globally has a song with (tinie tempah - major uk star)

2. Drake is not known globally and he does not dabble in any other things than music, and was known for playing a wheel chair dude and bitching about tuna sandwich (stop making facts) and no where near Kanye's level of other activties. i think diddy 20 years in the game is known more than ciroc again dont make up facts.

3. Is Drakes first even double platinum ?

4. Rihannas has never opened for Drake

5. Still find more people listened to WTT than have listened to Drakes shit, and you can take this on board or off it.

enough with making facts, Drake is number 3 or 4 maybe in his crew and he wont get any bigger.

Has Drake ever pissed off every white person in America and TWO United States Presidents? If the answer is no, then close this thread.
