....Not even close. T/S coulda' compared that fakkit to PM Dawn or sum ? like dat'. Just had to troll on Friday huh. FOH

I'm not trying to discount the innovation, because that much cannot be denied. The holy trinity of rap (Rakim, BDK, Kool G Rap) are immeasurable in terms of their contributions to the game, people are still "biting" off their flows years later, and they might not even know it. But still, how can someone hate on Drake (whos lyrical abilities mirror that of Kane) and yet call Kane one of the greatest? The ? doesn't add up b. The people in this thread acting like the comparison is completely far fetched are not being honest with themselves. Because track by track the best Drake raps compare nicely with BDKs best work as well.

Just because they have similar content doesn't mean that they're equal skillwise. They both have dope flows, but Drake just raps... he doesn't do much else. BDK told stories, created concepts, made different rhyme schemes. What does Drake do different or better other than sing and speak on relationships? -
Perfect thread to sum up why I rarely visit this site/section..

The funny thing is you could actually make a good Drake/BDK comparison if you start looking at BDK's 3-5th albums. Dude really wanted to be a rap singer and turned off his fan base. If he had come out today he'd be the biggest star in rap since Em.
-
They're about even. Both underrated but as of right now I might take Kane. Drake isn't far off though.

SMH, this is ridiculous.

This thread is Hip Hop blasphemy to the fullest...

Most of the ? in this thread I guaran-damn-tee have never listened to much BDK.
@BlackGerald you're all on my nuts but you've yet to add any sort of constructive insight. Only displays of your feelings. I've peeped your game tho, you're probably one of those "back packer" "real hip hop" "Diggin in the crates" type of ? . You would rather listen to Slum Village in the club than listen to Drake.
You get no points for your supposed hip hop knowledge ? , Unlike you I go based off of what I listen to, not prehistoric ideas of what is good and what isn't. How about instead of catching feelings you do as the title says, and debate bar for bar BDKs verses over Waynes.

From Wayne on Stilletos on Dedication 1
You ? is sleevless man you can't hang with us

Oak Wayne is right up in the spot where he is suppose to
B! Got Hova at the game and now he coachin’
Me! but I’ve been the champion happy as I ever been
Lampin' in the hamptons like what the ? is a hammock
The chef up in the kitchen like what the ? is a sammich
I'm like we gotta find middle ground we need balance
Challenge me rap beat to my advantage
I'm outstanding like standing outside up in the twister and walking not damaged
Standing outside up in the blizzard and walking hot headed
Serving nicklebacks and Iraq bet I will not panic
Swerve the nickel black if I wreck bet I will not panic
Cop another one the next day and drive it crazier
The seats will be lazier ? 'll be gravier
Nina Sarafina my girl so then I baby her
Wavin’ at her at 2 crazy four gazee's I'm 2 brazee 3 brazee's
Deep we got 380's and P 80 9's 9's M-10’s and M 1's and 12 gauges
Shell cases money put up for jail cases they`ll make it
My momma say tuck yo chain son they'll take it
I hit em' with one of those stale faces like
I’ll be damned momma they know who I am momma
I'm still yo little boy but to them I'm the man momma
? wit yo boy man how hollygrove the hood ?
Throw it in yo face till you get that understood -
What are the comparisons tho? You just put up two songs and said that they are pretty much equal.
Is the content similar, subject matter, flows, song writing ability or what about lyrical capability similar?
I don't see it and I'm a fan of Drake.
I do agree with the stigma of old vs new tho. -

Drake and BDK are similar in the fact that they don't have the greatest lyrical abilities per-say, but their flows are on point. And Drake has great verses that match up well with BDK's great verses.
And the ? catching feelings, mainly that ? @BlackGerald (who should be on suicide watch right now) are further testament to the stigma attached to comparing the old versus the new. -
Wait, so now Drake AND Wayne are being compared to BDK? Jesus Christ, this is child abuse...
It's been stated here already, but let's not forget BDK was a pioneer, and that's not some half assed compliment. He fathered both of their styles, and they still can't come close, no matter how similar they sound. Again, Drake and Wayne rap... well (sometimes for Wayne). But that's all they do. Rap. Wayne might tell a little story here and there, but that was the old Wayne. But can they make songs with stories like No Damn Good, Mr. Welfare... or joints like Children R The Future or Young, Gifted and Black? As limited as you say BDK is bar wise (? btw, BDK was the punchline champ at one point), Wayne and Drake are that much more limited in song content.
Also, are we really gonna compare a dude that held his own in a cypher with Biggie and Pac to a dude that "freestyles" from his phone and a dude that did... whatever the hell this is?

Rakim is to Em / Black Thought / Big Pun (lyrical), as BDK is to Big Poppa (charisma) , while Kool G is to Pac / 'Face (street) , as Slick Rick is to Nas/3 Stacks (storytelling), but......Drake is just Ja Rule 2.0 version.
-
Why did you bold some of those Wayne lyrics? Is that supposed to be the elite ? ?
-
-
You can't even get these cats to admit Drake is nice so of course they gon be aggy when you compare to BDK.
-
Drake ain't got nothing f#cking with this and the jury is still out on Lil Wayne and those 'ghostwriters' rumors...

Drake has a "playing it safe" style because it's a business and he has to keep making the same type songs to rake in that dough and stay current. I would like to see if Drake can make a song like "Lean On Me", "Young, Gifted and Black" etc. but it's not possible. -
