Let's be serious... The only reason he is out at all is cause of wayne's cosign... without that he would just be up in Canada aye?

Probably on an underground scale dropping mixtapes
-
Still making guest apperances on Degrassi and dropping mixtapes
-
Without Dame Jay wouldnt be anywhere
Without Suge Pac wouldnt be a legend
Without Dre Eminem wouldnt have been as big as he is
Without Scarface Luda woulda probably signed wit rapalot and been on trae/z ro status and not have his career where its at today
Alotta people get cosigns but what you said about Drake is true and is true about alotta rappers -
degrassi: in the workforce
-
If Wayne never existed, a lot of ppl ipods would have a LOT MORE unused memory for other songs
-
Probably smashin one of those degrassi ? .. I know I would.
-
i knew drake before tha young money deal.....
-
prbably good, ? had a nice buzz off comeback season and could sitll make the same two hits that got him over "successful" and "best i ever had"
he'd probably be less commercial as he wa smore so a backpacker on some elhzi ? when he started but crossed over after meeting wayne -

Dame & Suge weren't a mega-star rappers so that means Jay & Pac built their own fanbases & built their success with much less help from the people who helped them get on. Scarface was known, but not a major mega-star when he put Luda on either, so once again Luda built his own fanbase & didn't ride straight to the top because of who he was associated with & even though Dre was mega when Em entered, Em was just that good that people who weren't even ? with Dre like that took to him. I can tell you right now that the if Drake had to come in the game and make it off of his own abilities & with modest help from someone in the game like Jay, Pac, & Luda did he wouldn't be getting the burn that he's getting now. Let Lil Wayne stop co-signing this dude or diss him & watch how quickly he's forgotten about.
Thats an ignorant statement bruh. Jay and pac were great rappers but had solid business minded ? around them...without dames pushing and marketing skills, jay probably would have fell off after his first two albums. Em would not have ever gotten on without Dre imo, unless another big name dude lik Dre gave him a solid cosign. Dudes get on not just because of music but by promotion and co-signs. If the dopest ? was always the most popular ? would have bought ten million copies og "Fishscales" and "The Estactic" -

Nah my b.. i meant 07.. i remember bein in my freshman dormroom readin Jay-Z & Lil Wayne were tryin to sign some dude from Canada.. he had a few joints out b4 comeback season -

This...... -
Drake would be signed with Jay-Z right now, and would be a bigger star than he is now.....

nah i really think it was 08. however i think the same thing because how much some of ya'll knew about comeback season, alot of people never even heard of that mixtape until after he got big. then people started going through the archives. no matter what anybody says, EVERYONE gets help from somewhere -

i thought the reaosn why he didn't sign wa sbecause jay an dame broke up and the orignal ROC roster wad done...i think he'd sign on to G.O.O.D. Music before a dead R.O.C. roster...seems like since he lvies off Ye's style he'd want to be closer to the guy that made it acceptable not to come from the hood and just make dope music -

Yeah Drake does live off of Ye's style to a degree, so the better move would have been to sign with Jay and get even closer access to Ye. Kanye is one of the biggest geniuses in the industry right now, and sells a hell of a lot of records. Jay has been way more successful than Lil Wayne ever will, so Drake ? up signing with YM. He's doing his thing now, but Drake is gonna take a long time to go plat. I bet you Jay called Drake and told him, "You know, Kanye sold 800K when he first came out......" -

no matter how much people keep hyping him up, j.cole's career is not looking very promising right now. i think he fits in perfectly with wayne and his fan base. there basically the same people. jay fans probly wouldnt be feelin this dude
