    Old Kanye(College dropout-Late registration) was better than Drake but New Kanye isn't really better than him anymore. Hes a better artist though

    The question is bar for bar who is better, not who is the better artist. No way in hell is Kanye a better lyricist than Drake

    Yeezy has said more important and relevant things than Drake but technically Drake is better.

    Kanye as a MC is 10 times more diverse than drake. Drake can only tell stories of being trying to be successful or songs about missing a girl or kissing up to a girl that probally got him in the friend zone.

    Kanye can lyrically go oin on ? from a girl in college (all falls down) to the diamond crisis in africa (diamonds remix), to being loyal to surviving a crash (through the wire). And that is just taking his first 2 albums where drake is right now. Ye has quotables in songs for days while drake depends on lame hooks for days with limited quoteables that sound like recylced lil wayne lines.

    If you take a random sample from yes first 2 albums and Drakes 2 albums kanye has more bars that hit harder. Also comparing bar for bar allot of drakes lines all sound the same which makes his lines hit light busch light where its watered down and easy to drink. But ye bar for bar comes outta nowhere with ? and has more diverse subject matter which yes is artistic but make the bar hit harder on some strong whistkey ? .

    And drake steals and recycles lines as well

    you could say the same thing about drake. ? sounds like a wayne clone and he has his fair share of corny lines too. Yes youre right ye comes with wack lines at times but drake stays out lameing kanye as far as punchlines. And thats when he decides to even rap at all cause hes obsessed with using computer effects to make people think he can actually sing.

    You just started listening to Drake this week or something?

    I guarentee there ain't a Kanye verse as good as What I'm Thinking Right now.

    I for one co-sign the notion that Kanye > Drake as an artist.

    But you ? are either biased as ? or just out of your minds to say Kanye better lyrically. Drake's flows alone stomp mudholes in Kanye's and walks them dry. Kanye has Drake on punchlines cause he's witty but even then, there isn't a huge advantage. And let's be real. Kanye in the past 2 years and some change has had some LAZY as ? verses. A lot of him and Jay's verses on WTT were Dom Kennedy lazy.

    Besides, in another thread a ? said I can't have Kanye as my favorite MC due to the fact that he had ghostwriters in Rhymefest and Consequence. Well allow me to invoke that clause again. Unless we're envoking we're invoking the age old IC golden rule "We're not allowed to use common sense, logic and objectivity when discussing Drake. Blind hate only."

    kanye ain't really nothin to be honest. just good at making beats and has a flow thats not terrible to point of not being able to listen, but not good either.

    but i guess he is a better "artist"(which i think a lot people on here think picking good beats automatically makes you a good artist).
