Through all of his success, drake is still the same to this day. I just watched rap radar, and came back to this, and noticed how little he changed. He blows my mind everyday. The goat. Untouchable

[@97JG]

There’s more pain in the rap radar though. Here he’s very hungry to write history. In the rap radar one he’s surpassed everyone’s expectations, even those of his own. He’s literally turned his idols into his rivals like Ye and Pusha T. The interview is in a fat ass house in his home town but in the video Chicago Freestyle where he’s counting his money and the song ends… it just looks like he’s made it to such a height that he’s untouchable 🐐

[@gabbiebrunette15]

I love Drake so much, like I don't know how to explain how much his music has affected my life. There's like a line with the right melody and it hits and I cry and shit there's those lyrics in every one of his songs that just speaks to me. It's gotta be crazy living in his mind.

it's crazy watching this interview five years later and hearing drake talk about how wayne is the icon of our generation and how wayne will have his face on shirts decades from now and how wayne will be remembered like a jimi hendrix/bob marley kind of cultural figure.....but little does drake from five years ago know that it's actually going to be him.

SSJ5 Gogeta A lot of the big artists you listen to have songs they didn't write, it's just part of the business. But you can't discredit this mans entire career because of that.

[@jacobross735]

SSJ Blue Evolution Mastered Ultra Instinct Gogeta bruh all rappers use ghost writers. I enjoy rap but it’s hard to deny they’re not very talented compared to other artists like rockstars who actually play instruments. Rap beats are all generated on a computer and they sample old music . The artist just needs to be able to spit that’s all. That being said I do still believe drake will be looked at as another pac 20 years from now he won’t just be a thing of the past like other rappers such as Dmx, Tpain, Chris brown etc

[@kokolatte825]

@SSJ Blue Evolution Mastered Ultra Instinct Gogeta there were always rumors of Jay-Z using ghostwriters as well. It never tarnished his overall image. It's unfortunate for Drake because it's a different time. I think it's silly if people really think this guy doesn't write most of his own material.
