but colege dropout was 10 times better than TML......there was no auto tune there was no simp ass crybaby shit every song like drake did on TML and he sampled soul beats the right way which alllot of his own production. Drake from singing the contract to current day has over used autotune for multiple albums and has not fully comitted to rapping.
I don't disagree with the sentiment that College Dropout >>> TML. And that has nothing to do with this thread.
But you really can't critisize or blame Drake for singing or autotune when Kanye made an ENTIRE ALBUM with BOTH before So Far Gone even dropped. And on top of it it sold like crazy. On any given Drake project you won't find 5 all singing songs.
Even on Watch The Throne Kanye sang. So if you want to blame anyone, there you go.
Yeah Ja Sang, Kanye had a shitty autotune album, and LL was writing shit for the ladies but.....those niggas were rapping 90% of the time.
Room for improvement: No sang songs on 23 tracks
Comeback Season: 1 sang song on 22 Tracks
So Far Gone: 5 sang songs on 17 tracks
Thank Me Later: 4 sang songs on 14 tracks
Take Care: 5 sang songs on 18 tracks.
There isn't any majority lean on the singing at all.
And even when Ja Sang he wasnt using autotune or some annoying enhancer.
Because it wasn't available to him.
Let's not act like EVERYONE isn't using them. From niggas who can't sing worth a fuck (Wayne, Wiz, Snoop) to niggas who can (T-pain, Chris Brown)
Maybe it was mixed and mastered but it was more raw. Drake comes out here with mumble lackluster R&B which he cant even perform at a decent level.
If it sounds good it sounds good.
