From the few songs I've heard of his, his word play is weak, he rhymes the same words in a row through out a song which is amateur shit, has a pretty monotonous, what I'd call retarded flow.

This is so true tho
Maybe if you're like a 60 year old who hasn't kept up with modern music.

Every rapper is a bad rapper.
Yet it's the most popular genre. Yet they're constantly getting awards and influencing our culture. I bet you're one of those people who listen to obscure rock music alone in their room.
What's wrong with obscure rock or obscure music in general?

Popularity =/= quality

The general population doesn't actually know much about music on a technical level and if its good or not. Fucking Justin Bieber is even more popular than Drake would you say Justin Bieber is a better musician than Drake?
I've already addressed this, slash. I've already addressed this.
yeah you've addressed that popularity = quality and that's incorrect
I didn't say that. I said popularity is linked to quality and is a means to measure whether something is good or not. Like I told Jim, it's not possible to quantify something subjective like this. The best I can do is point out the amount of fans, the sells, and the awards given to an artist.
Fans and sales don't mean shit when you completely lack originality and innovation like Drake.
Son, you people can take shots at Drake all you want but we all know he changed the game.

I wouldn't really consider him a rapper lmao, he's a guitarist. Not like he's been relevant within the past decade though.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
actually, pop music is the most popular genre

that's why it's called pop music
This is true. Second most popular.
Actually, I'm pretty sure in America that that's country music.

Nah I still think rap beats it, even in the south.

What do you think of Kendrick?
I haven't listened to much of his newer stuff, but I think he's a pretty good lyricist and puts some actual emotion into his rapping. Rappers like him who came from actual poverty in the hood tend to have a more advanced form of wordplay to tell their story.

Check out that TPaB for some real shit. He really went above and beyond with that one.

Did research, I stand corrected.
Hip hop appears to be at the top of the most polls and statistical graphs.
I don't really consider hip hop artists rappers, more for the association the genre has with pop music.

He definitely isn't a good rapper.

He's a decent RnB artist tho.
