....since the last time that he overdosed.
Shouts to Neekee , for getting this right. BONUS POINTS!!!
But in case the rest of you (all three) don't know where these lines are from, it's from this video; Forever by Drake, featuring Kanye, Lil Wayne and Eminem.
Everyone is weighing in on who they think has the best lyrics. And I am in no way, shape or form, a hip hop head. But I know what I like.
And I think that Eminem has the best "flow" (???), hahaha. I like how he picks up the beat, he rhymes quick. I think he has a tremendous amount of talent. Too bad he feels the need to dumb himself down, i.e his forst album and all the slim slady shit, where he raps in that high pitched voice making him seem like an idiot. He has the same affect that Ghost has singing reggae, hahaha.
Then I like Kanye's next. I know he's an ass, ans he totally contradicts the point of the song, but I feel where he's coming from. He's cocky and he's used to people letting him get away with the shit that he says and does. But he's human. I feel like he's trying to warn Drake, with all this fame and success he wants, be warned mang, be warned. But 'Ye is sort of a complainer. His first album had Spaceship, and he was complaining about working and not getting any reconition. Now he's getting attentiona nd he doesn't want it anymore. Meh, it's Kanye.
I feel like Drake and Lil Wayne's verse are weak. And again, this is only my opinion. Drake is like dumbing it down and not really singing about anything. He's way too cocky, and yes, he does have reason to be sure of his talent, but honestly, he needs to chill. I don't really like any of his songs, to be honest, other than this one, and I think it's because of Eminem.
Lil Wayne, is just himself. Half the time, I don't have any idea what he's saying. And I do like his songs, but they're more for the beats, and to hear Robin Thicke, hahaha. I love me the sounds of his soulful crooning.
But yea,my take.
I don't really have anything to write about as you can obviousky see from my last two posts.
Ok, that's it.
Bye.

I have to comment on this. I have some strong feelings about all four of them.
Eminem - he has talent. Dre signed him after he called into a radio station and rapped on air for him. Very few rappers have talent like that. He flow rivals that of Twista. The speed & complex verses make him a force. he is also smart because he can manipulate people. He is capable of being both commercial and hard core.
Kanye - should stick to writing. His flow is alright at his best and awful at his worse. He is intelligent and cocky both of which are equired for longevity. He is not a rapper though. He relies more on publicity to sell his albums because if it came down to the actual quality he would be a B list rapper at best.
Lil Wayne - drinks cough syrup for the high, that says it all. He is trying to hard to be old school rapper. He wants to be a hard core rapper that is reminscent of ODB. But unfortunately he falls short. ODB had his demons but he was talented. Lil Wayne just has the demons. Cash money records does not produce any quality artists.
Drake - a newbie. He probably won't be here in 5 years.
I will never leave Hip-hop, Gangsta, Rap or any of that genre 'cause I love the music. . .but lately I'm starting to like what Trance, House and the like are doing. . .also, I am awesome :P
