where is his talent if the songwriting is lazy and he's not a top rhymer? talent is useless if its never manifested. i personally don't see it at all, apart from an ok singing voice (although that's largely ruined with autotune anyway).Killamike49 wrote:To be clear, i love btnh, i love wu, i love 50, Drake and lil Wayne come up with some funny shit sometimes, but drake has more talent.

In this case Drake's talent knowing what people want, and delivering it. Man's got a pleasant signing voice too. I totally understand why people don't like him though.aquemini wrote:where is his talent if the songwriting is lazy and he's not a top rhymer? talent is useless if its never manifested. i personally don't see it at all, apart from an ok singing voice (although that's largely ruined with autotune anyway).Killamike49 wrote:To be clear, i love btnh, i love wu, i love 50, Drake and lil Wayne come up with some funny shit sometimes, but drake has more talent.
