WHY AM I GETTING TIRED OF HEARING DRAKE?

Now, before some of the Drizzy stans start pissing themselves from anger (TJ), lol. This is not a hate post towards this cat, in fact...I was lumped in the category along with many 15-16 year old girls who followed Degrassi (pause), and who knew that Aubrey Graham was a rapper, way before Lil' Wayne started nut-hugging him on award shows (The VMAs).

This had to be around what...late 2006 perhaps? Drake began putting singles out, mostly with fellow Canadian artists (Voyce, JD Era, Kardinal Offishall) linked with DJ Smallz, one of the South's elite DJs, and made Room For Improvement. 2007 came with Drake getting ready to end his stint on Degrassi as the infamous "Wheelchair Jimmy"...and a second mixtape was released entitled "Comeback Season", where he bodied popular songs such as Kanye's "Barry Bonds", Lupe's "The Failure", and more, not to mention high-profile collaborations with then partner-in-song, Trey Songz (no pun intended), surprisingly Rich Boy, Phonte of Little Brother, 9th Wonder, and more...

I thought to myself, man....this kid is TRULY the future of this rap game...then he ran into Lil' Wayne...

I'm not saying Lil' Wayne is the career-killer like some people I know of (Diddy)...but I just don't like when people act like every verse he spits....or sings...is the hottest shit out right now...I don't give a FLYING FUCK if he is clever...it sure as hell don't make it entertaining.

And since then, it seems as if though Drake is about to follow in his footsteps, because he has been more hit-or-miss, rather than consistent, but that is just my opinion. His verse over Kanye's "Say You Will" was madness, and his remix of "Swagger Like Us" was ripped to shreds. Hell, he outshined Wayne himself and everyone else that appeared on Dedication 3...YEA I SAID IT!!!

I guess my problem with Drake is that...I hear new shit about the same shit...in other words...I wanna see what homie can do, when he has a topic, or he's talking about more than what he has, and reflect more on his life and whatever struggles he had growing up and shit...even though, I don't believe he has ever had any.

I guess until we see that, Drake to me, will be the cat, that with all the co-signs, verses, mixtapes, and credentials he has...he will have to take himself out of the "one-dimensionality" that he sometimes pigeon-holes himself into...

This ain't me hatin...but I'm just sayin...
