Drake's always the weakest part of whatever he's a part of. I swear, I've gone from being a casual fan to hating him, to having hope when IYRTITL dropped, to hating him harder and more fiercely than anyone else in the goddamn hip hop world. He's a goddamn joke.
Re: Lil Wayne. This dude just makes me sad at this point. I broke my "no music videos" rule and watched the clip for "No Problems" from Coloring Book, and Wayne is just systematically erasing his legacy. That was his best verse in forever, but looking at him, flexing and boarding and acting like the same old Hot Boy kid, with that wrinkly face and the elephant in the room that is his dwindling (ok, nosediving) relevance is just pathetic.
Seriously, I think he's using all this label drama to cover up the fact that he's DONE, and doesn't have another good album in him. He knows it. But he still says shit like "I got problems bigger than these boys/my deposits they be on steroids" ... Yeah, I doubt that.
My favorite part of the video, and of his verse, is when he says "I get so choked up, when I think of old stuff/ movin on.." It feels like he's actually being honest for a split second, and I like his delivery of the line in the video.
That line about "if that label tries to stop me there's gon be some crazy Weezy fans all up in the lobby"'is wishful thinking. When was the last time you encountered a real live hardcore Weezy fan? And if "that label" really is getting in his way, they HAVE stopped him, and I don't see anyone rioting in the streets, or even bitching on message boards.
Wayne is done. His voice makes any hip-hop song sound ten years older than it is. He's having seizures all over the place, probably due to his steady diet of sizzurp and Xanax and percocets. Fucking idiot.
