drake might be the most manufactured, forced hype ever. his raps are cool. not a fan of the singing though.

He should not talk so much about his non-existing album, but just make it happen!

[...] You know you doing well when a) you have 2 Grammy Nominations without an album and b) CNN starts pretending they care about hip-hop just to get some shine off you. Congrats to Drizzy, 40 and Boi-1da. Props to NahRight on the find. [...]

His attitude says a lot, he holds himself proper in front of the camera and represents for some of the people he started things off with, nuff respect.
Tdot Stand up.

Lol, that’s going to probably go over a lot of peoples head if they didn’t see the hot97 “freestyle” video. But he basically said he was nervous and wasn’t expecting to have to “freestyle” or “spit” on Flex’s show. I’m still waiting to hear him actually sing live. I think he is very talented overall but until he steps his live game up he won’t live up to all the hype he has been afforded. Did anyone hear the song he wrote for Alicia Keys?
It’s a not hip hop but it is nice!
