how long?.....

My prediction is 3-4 more years. Then his style will probably fizzle out and a new jack will takeover as the pop star of hip hop.

Difficult to say, could be longer than that, could be shorter. The thing he has going for him is that his style isn't too difficult to adjust to different kinda of beats/music, plus he sings on most of his hooks, too.

I really think it depends on him. How long he decides to make music and how long he can put out hits. It's not hard to fall off in the game. A lot of good artist fall off. Everybody's a fad in the rap game. Everybody has their time to reign. Jay-Z, Ja Rule, Lil Jon, 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, on and on it won't stop.

who ever voted 6 months needs to be slapped lol

no way drake falls off in 6 months


his lyrics are by far hotter than any other artist out (on a lyrical stand point)

the ladies like his look, and he sings

street cred + mainstream hit

this dude will be on top for a good while

Agreed, he's versatile which leads to major longevity for however long he wants to go. I think he'll be popular for a long time.

I don't know how long he'll be popular, but I question his ability to do big numbers. I think he'll debut #1, but Eminem drops the next week, and that will be the end of his reign on top with this album. I personally don't like his music, but to each his own.

Im tired of EM.. Thats just me.. EM never really won me over. Sure hes dope and all, but his attacks towards other people are kinda getting OLD..

Back on the original Thread..

Drake over Kid Cuddly any day.. I got into it with some one who said Drake doesnt write his own lyrics.. Some one please tell me I shoulda slapped him..

nah... he's stayin 4 quite some time... he's been out since 06

Best lyricist out?

SMMFH.

:nonono:

There are alot of rappers out there better than Drake...(Nas, Joe Budden, Royce Da 5'9, Illmaculate, Dumbfoundead, Lupe Fiasco, J.Cole, Eminem, Joell Ortiz) to name a few.

his lyrics are by far hotter than any other artist out (on a lyrical stand point)

"'Bout to set it off in this *****, Jada Pinkett"
"I can teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone"
"Two thumbs up, Ebert & Roper"
"Can you see me? Can you see me? / Get your Visine on"

...all in the same song. I cringe every time I hear "Over."

To each his own I guess. :dunno:

He's a major improvement over what the radio's used to play before him.

Baby steps, at least he doesn't rap about how hard he is. The average kid is the US can relate to Drake's lines which is a novel style of rapping. Listening to a bunch of frauds rap about there "hood" is sickening to the ears...

Smh at the Nas lost optioin.

Who knows? He's an up and coming commercial artist. He's also an actor as well I think he'll be around for a while.

Im a Nas fan. I just think its funny how people always say he lost. It was a joke.

Pull your head outta your arse and go listen to some more rap

Drake is FAR from the best lyricist

lol. But trust me there are legions of people I know who think Wayne and Drake probably invented hip hop haha. That's how it goes.

Kobe, its ray allen here. I'll be seeing you in the finals soon.

this mutha****er is ****in overrated, simplistic and needs to seriously improve his skill

He has less to do with how long Drake keeps making music, and more to do with who comes out in the meantime and makes Drake's style seem outdated.
