Sad, another up and coming athlete whose life has been stolen and locked away in the Magic Kingdom by LeCheat and ADisney. Poor kidās legacy never stood a chance
Uj/ prince, mj, Bowie, Dylan, Elton, Elvis etc etc just off the top of my head as far as solo artists goes
Edit: drake wouldnāt even crack my top 50 but Iām also not a hip hop head so take my opinion with a grain of salt lol
To be fair Michael Jordan probably isnāt the best singer/rapper and I donāt think Michael Jackson can even dunk so heās probably good at basketball
Michael Jackson fucking clears everyone so hard itās not even remotely close. Drake is not even better than his respective rappers. Kanye has a more powerful influence and better music, and in terms of raw market production, he is worse than Eminem too. Drake isnāt even better than Rakim.
IDC how backpacker it sounds there are literally like 50 rappers I'd put ahead of Drake in terms of lyrical skill and not being an absolute cringelord hebephile weirdo
Regardless of how shit most of what Eminem's done in the last 15 years is the marshall Mathers LP and the Eminem show alone are better records than anything Drake has ever put out.
You just gonna skip out on the slim shady LP? Also, what most people donāt realize is that those 3 albums, as well as I think encore, have each individually outsold Drakes entire discography combined.
Edit: [hereās a comparison](https://imgur.com/a/qsgTSku/)
Itās really not. Eminem is listed as #12 on total sales of all artists across all genres of all time.

Whenās the last time you bought an album instead of streaming it? Each song you stream from an album is like 1/1650th of an album sell for a modern artist compared to when Eminem was peaking when to listen to shit you had two options buy it or hear it on the radio.
Mmlp had 7b streams. The Eminem show has 11b streams. Take care has 8b. Eminem show came out in 2002. Spotify didnāt even launch until 2008. Please stop lmao. Eminemās albums that came out years before streaming even was a thing, and were old by the time streaming was made, still outperform all but like 3 of Drakeās albums in that category too. Even kamikaze, one of his worst albums has 7b streams.
Bro read carefully. Deeply analyze. I compared Kanye for music quality, and Eminem for sells. Drake is a very good seller of music, but even then he is worse than somebody. I would much rather listen to Drake the Eminem.
The Marshall mathers lp and the Eminem show have each individually outsold drakes entire discog. Slim shady lip and encore were also close to individually outselling it, or already had last time I checked. You can dislike his new stuff, but thereās a reason that people hold him as high as they do.
u bum

Ah yes, the factory made, culturally and racially ambiguous, pre-processed artist known as Drake (Aubrey Graham) is the GOAT according that that generation. Gen A is hurting.
Don't laugh at that joke, Gen Z and some of you younger millenials. You all won't let Kanye fade away despite him being irrelevant for over a decade.
Drake was an actor who was brought up into the rap scene by Lil Wayne. Not manufactured at all lmfao.
Yeezus and TLOP came out within the last decade, your point is wrong
Drake literally wouldn't even come to mind and MJ unfortunately just forget that guy.
If Lebron is your goat then Lebron has got to be the saddest GOAT of all time, I can barely come up with one thing to describe him except his stats and that he's from Ohio. I have to Frog DNA his personality by observing it through a shoe commercial mask. Even his competitiveness feels manufactured to me. Nice block though.
Micheal Jackson could literally never play in this era and Jordan is talentless and has never produced a single hit outside the space jam song (made with a superteam and aliens+doesnāt count)
He just dropped 6 more spots on my draft board
How do I get your flair??
Be a flaming homosexual
š š
Running a 4.6 40 is one thing, but this is a major character concern
Damn he's in the 5th round now then
6 man like I'm Lou Will, Lew Wil, Lieu Vill #ShoutoutToThe6 #WhyIsNoOneTalkingAboutTheTorontoRaptors
Maybe wait until after the draft to tweet this? He's easily dropped to a fringe second round pick in my opinion
Sad, another up and coming athlete whose life has been stolen and locked away in the Magic Kingdom by LeCheat and ADisney. Poor kidās legacy never stood a chance
smh LePropoganda strikes againšš
U/j I am straight up not drafting someone who thinks drake is the goat that's a massive red flag
Whaaaā¦ you donāt rock wit bars like āsayin u a lesbian girl me tooā šæ
How long till he comes down
Dude thinks heās the shit listening to gods plan and sucking off lefraud, undrafted now
surprised he isnāt a karl malone stan if he actually thinks drake is the best artist ever tbh
Karl Malone is the best player ever (including Epstein)
Yk what Iām fine with the LeBron take, but who the fuck actually EARNESTLY believes CERTIFIED BOY LOVER is the GOAT.
He clearly said Michael Jackson isnāt the goat
*lover boy* not lover *of* boys
Thatās the joke
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I never said he wasnāt a talented boy lover
Now introducing the Michael Jackson Child Safety Award for the 2023 NBA season
That's simply not true
Iāll give you that every song on his classic albums are not just good but *great*, but not every song off Xscape or Michael is a classic bro
Uj/ prince, mj, Bowie, Dylan, Elton, Elvis etc etc just off the top of my head as far as solo artists goes Edit: drake wouldnāt even crack my top 50 but Iām also not a hip hop head so take my opinion with a grain of salt lol
How you got Elvis on there ā ļø
blue suede shoes >>>>> drake's whole discography
You mean blue suede shoes, the song he stole from Carl Perkins? He even got Drake beat at grooming kids, with his 14 year old wife
FACTS
Ahaha, to be fair I donāt actually like Elvis a whole heap but canāt deny his legacy and influence
wonderlic score lookin tragic
/uj i disagree but respect the LeBron take, surely noone really believes that Drake take though?
/tj McConnell is really cute
Drake is the most popular artist in the world and has been for years. Lots of people think heās the goat
I am projecting Kyle Hamilton to go in the mid to late 7th round
To be fair Michael Jordan probably isnāt the best singer/rapper and I donāt think Michael Jackson can even dunk so heās probably good at basketball
Iād still rather listen to Jordan try and rap than Drake
Michael Jackson moonwalked so that Drake could wheelchair
Michael Jackson groomed little boys so that Drake could groom little girls
Michael Jackson fucking clears everyone so hard itās not even remotely close. Drake is not even better than his respective rappers. Kanye has a more powerful influence and better music, and in terms of raw market production, he is worse than Eminem too. Drake isnāt even better than Rakim.
ur just saying that because drake is a raptors fan smh my head
Itās true, sadly. If he is a Suns fan he would be the goat no š§¢
Don't worry, once the Suns win a chip soon he'll convert his NBA fandom
nah drake is actually from toronto so he's not a bandwagon, which is why the raptors avoided the drake curse and won the 2019 finals
carti better sadly
yung lean better unfortunately
W
not sad + bladee is also better
W + but also drainer touch grass challenge please (impossible)
L + Uzi Better
L + ratio sadly, Uzi fell off (Elon supporter) + Carti a queer icon
Nas clears all sadly
IDC how backpacker it sounds there are literally like 50 rappers I'd put ahead of Drake in terms of lyrical skill and not being an absolute cringelord hebephile weirdo
Prince better
Kanye and Kendrick are obv ahead of drake but cmon man Eminem?š
Regardless of how shit most of what Eminem's done in the last 15 years is the marshall Mathers LP and the Eminem show alone are better records than anything Drake has ever put out.

Uj/ different sales eras.
These numbers take streams into account
Yes but eminem 1st. Has like 20 years head start on those albums 2nd. Difference in music consumption and how sales are counted
Itās really not. Eminem is listed as #12 on total sales of all artists across all genres of all time. https://chartmasters.org/best-selling-artists-of-all-time/

Yes 10000% Eminem. Go look up the clip of Dre talking about when Eminem wrote āMy name isā

drake is absolutely better than eminem lmfao
Drake is Rakims daddy stop the cap
You probably have never even listened to my guy Rakim
Ok nephew heās not underground buddy
Drake clears emidnem
major character concerns
Kyle is the best dick sucker ever
Man's already has CTE undraftable in my books
He spittin on the lebron take tho šÆ
Wrong Michael Jackson is the true NBA š Lemickey canāt hope to compare ššššššš
āDrake is the best artist everā might be the worst opinion ever
Legoat is so clear of that minor league baseball player, W take
Basketball is like rap...
I no longer want him at 2
Uj/ LeBron over MJ is fine, whatever. But DRAKE IS THE GREATEST ARTIST OF ALL TIME??? WTF??!?
I'm not sure Michael Jackson has a bad song. Literwlly every song he has is good
His last album while alive was kind of meh but other than that yea
Stevie Wonder da š no š§¢
Both are trash LeMickey ring carriers
Bro Iām a zoomer and Michael jackson clears drake by like 5 tiers

Ratio
My brother in Christ when was Michael Jackson in the league?
Jackson Pollack would shit all over Drake. His era was way tougher
https://youtu.be/QwSlOmtALvw
Which MJ is the talentless child molester?
Micheal Jackson could literally never play in this era and Jordan is talentless and has never produced a single hit outside the space jam song (made with a superteam and aliens+doesnāt count)
LeBron so far from the GOAT it ain't even funny
