Why would anyone take that literally? It's rap music, everyone embellishes.

It's a silly concept. People actually respect rappers more if they've been involved in gangs.. lol.

At the very least though, many rappers are from grimy hoods. It's known Drake is a suburban Canadian who was on TV as a teenager.. so he get's made fun of for it. Same with his "Started from the Bottom" shtick of course.

 

[TheOGB]

Sometimes I can't look at Drake and not think of Combofiend

I don't hate Drake, and many of the jokes are childish, but some of em are goddamn hilarious. That apple one was great. And the wheelchair pics are fucked up in one sense but I fucking die everytime I see it because I used to love Degrassi.

Even Started From The Bottom is something I interpret as a tale of him working from a very young age and now being one of the top Rappers. Which I suppose is what he aspired to be from a young age.

The bottom doesn't have to be destitution.

 

[Red_Man]

This is really funny, good on him. Handled it well.

 

[Casimir]

He was massive creepy who kept pressuring a female interviewer from a big time magazine into having sex with him.

Article about this:
http://www.msjamerica.com/2012/03/drake-repeatedly-asks-gq-reporter-to.html

Drake enters some numbers into a keypad on a bookshelf and—presto!— it swings open into his massive, paisley-swathed sleeping chamber, complete with a California king bed..,

...for which he must purchase custom sheets.

What? Authors really shouldn't comment on things they don't know anything about.

 

[GraveRobberX]

Damn the first page had many dead bodies, GAWD DAMN!

Even by joking on Drake it's still killing people... in the wrong way =/

 

[Effnine]

This whole "dead" thing can't die soon enough ... just about as annoying as everyone saying: "Right" or "I know, right"

 

[Mistel]

There's an obvious metal gear solid joke but I can't put my finger on it.

 

[Yekshemesh]

all Drake threads will now have this

He wanna be a basketball wife sooo bad

LAWD!! Cause you a good girl and you know it.

 

[MercuryLS]

These are my favorites.

 

[Mariah Carey]

Huh?

Er... I'm going to have to go "Huh?" right back. Of course ridiculing a man for being soft is sexist. What's hard to get?

Not trying to white knight the guy if it really is all just good-natured ribbing, but seeing it over and over again is uncomfortable.

 

[MercuryLS]

Isn't most of his music wistful relationship songs tempered with the usual rap artist lines bragging about his wealth? It's not like he's constantly rapping about dope dealing and burying bodies.

Drake is too corny, Kanye raps about relationships too...he just does it with more taste most of the time.

 

[reKon]

Drake threads always deliver. Those jokes are still funny too. It's also funny when borderline stans like Ken Master rush to Drizzy's defense.

I still enjoy his music and he can spit, but all the jokes won't get old for a while.

 

[Courage]

Eh, there's time for the corny lyrics and there's time for the simpler more emotional songs. Kanye also has a handful of corny lyrics regarding relationships (put my fist in her like a civil rights sign). It all depends on how they're executed and how they're contextualized.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Drake the type of nigga is probably my new favourite thing.

 

[JDSN]

Is he half Kardashian?

DAMN

Chasin’ love, lots of bittersweet hours lost/ Eatin’ Asian pussy, all I need was sweet and sour sauce

My apologies, are you into astrology/Cause I’m tryin’ to make it to Uranus

Kanye in general has some of the corniest lyrics around.. Drake to me as a person is corny, but his raps aren't as corny to me.

I said most of the time. Stuff like Runaway, Blame Game.

 

[nns3d]

haha that was pretty funny. That's cool of Drake to do something like this.

Nah bro, both of them are guilty for this.

Marvin's Room has the corniest, most desperate lyrics in this industry, but it works for what he's trying to do with the song.

 

[riotous]

He certainly has more deeper lyrics than Drake.

I just think he also beats drake in corniness lyrically.

I guess I just disagree. Can't think of anything remotely as corny as many of Kanye's lyrics in Marvin's Room.

It's kind of a corny song in general.. but he aint talking about eating sweet and sour sauce off of an Asian's pussy.. lol.

 

[MormaPope]

Drake threads are the best.

 

[Courage]

Drake is only a dumbass when he disses Ye for the "swaghili" line when he does the same without the lame wordplay. At least Kanye embraces the ignorance.

 

[MercuryLS]

Can't argue that Kanye has is share of corny ass songs too. I wish Drake would go back to make his mixtape-type stuff.

 

[MormaPope]

People hating on Drake is old

He gets to fuck Rihanna on a daily basis, and your girlfriend does not look as good as her. Stay bothered by the King of Rap.

And Obama gets to fuck Michelle, who has more political power than all of your spouses combined times 10,000. Stay bothered by the King of the Free World.

Right? I can't even

 

[Kikarian]

drake the type to be fatherless when he has a father

looooooooooooooool

dead

 

[nvrndr]

He can be funny when he's the subject of jokes but other then that....eh.

The only rapper worse than Drake is Rick Ross, and thats not even something worth noting anyways.

Are you talking about rap or like. The people?

 

[nvrndr]

Their music. Although I guess you could say the person too.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

This is it.
This killed me.

 

[221BakerStreet]

Drake the type of nigga is probably my new favourite thing.

I didn't know there were so many. I second this though. This is now on the top of my funny list.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Drake the type of dude to let you use the good controller when you go to his house.

 

[Ashhong]

These are my favorites.

Omfg this is too funny
