Drake feat. Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem - FOREVER

Best verse in order:

Eminem
Drake
Kanye
Wayne

All of them were good though.

Did anyone else notice: Eminem's verse sounds like he's talking about the ones that went before him on the song: Drake, Kanye, Wayne

He talks about them leaving to fill up stadiums, should he rap at their tempo or go all out, etc.

 

The album was a complete letdown for me. Though Soundtrack 2 My Life is an instant classic in my opinion.

"I got, 99 problems, and they're all b****es..."

 

Give it a few more listens, and see what you think.

This track is awesome! All of the rappers have great parts in this song. But Eminem out-dones all of the others. Eminem is just killer with his part.

This rap song is one of the better I have ever heard. Kind of reminds me of this song below, another great rap track.

If that first sentence is true for the Drake song you might need to listen to some more rap. I have no idea how you could compare that with the Nas song...and I'm not even a big Nas fan.

 

Just a personal opinion. Both those songs are really heavy and strong, with great beat and verses. I admit, I don't listen to a lot of rap. Only a selected few great ones.

Other songs that I consider amongst the best I have heard.

Outkast- Aquemini
Ouktast - Get up, get out

(Don't laugh) Some of the Jurrasic 5 songs from their first 2 albums

Again I don't listen to a lot of rap since because much of it today is crap anyway.

 

Hmmm.. Content wise that song is solid, but there wasn't any lyrical acrobatics (eminem/nas/raekwon/ghostface) or clever wordplay(jay-z/wayne) in there. I think Drakes cool. He's not a gangster, he's not a drug dealer. He's just a guy from Toronto who wanted to be a rapper. Now he is one and that's pretty much what he raps about (groupies, relationship issues w/ his girl, money, success). He's definitely overrated, but he comes off as being more or less honest in all of his music which is refreshing.

**side note**
Has anyone heard anything from J.Cole besides "A Star is Born"? I thought he did a great job holding his own on that song.

I like everyone's verse but Eminem's. I think it's more because of the vibe of the song, than anything against MM. Who is one of my top 20ish favorite rappers. I know for a certain demo. MM is the greatest thing ever. And before anyone attacks me, Eminem has said himself he knows the demographic that mostly shows up at his shows. Not that this means anything more than the purpose of defending what I said earlier. And don't get me wrong I think his Marshal Mathers LP is a fantastic album. Though my favorite rap album is Illmatic-Nas.
Also kinda unrelated and random, a lot of movie references in the song...Finding Nemo, Curious Case of BB, Superbad, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Space Jam, Silence of the Lambs/Hannibal.
