Drake did good, Eminem dropped the fuckin ball completely and Wayne, we already know he fell off
How exactly did Drake do good and EM dropped the ball! Em dropped the second highest selling album of 2013, 4 songs in the top 20 first person to do so since the Beatles did in 1964. And MMLP 2 was given positive reviews from 31 music critics his best rating since The Eminem Show. Also MMLP 2 was praised for it’s Technical skill and lyricism. But I’ll take it your a Drake Stan which tells me about your knowledge of Hip Hop and Lyricism!! Waiting for my favorite rapper Nas to drop next!!
they also concluded that the general public have the i.q. of a door knob

drake continues to prove time and time again that he is the king of this rap shit. Eminem only beat drake in sales because his album is full of pop records like the songs with rihanna and pink. ALl the ctitics praise drakes album over eminems. NOBODY IS ON DRAKES LEVEL DRAKE IS THE KING OF THE RAP SHIT AND EVERYTHING PROVES IT NUMBERS, STATS, CRITICS, everything is going in drakes favour. WHY CANT YOU DELUSIONAL INTERNET NERDS JUST ADMIT THAT DRAKE RUNS THIS RAP SHIT. Why do you feel that your opinions are more justified than actual music critics. WHY?
Still wrong about everything, Drake stan.
