Drake Takes ‘Pride’ In Writing Down His Lyrics

Posted by @TeamOnSMASH - May 7, 2009

Drake isn’t ashamed to say he writes his rhymes and also says look out for upcoming collab with KiD CuDi and tracks Wayne and Kanye & Wayne and Jeezy, before his album Thank Me Later comes out.

    I have a strong feeling that he’s indirectly expressing his opinion on wayne’s style.

    there is nothing wrong with writing rhymes but fucking going on rap city or whatever the fuck that shit is nowadays and busting out your PDA for a freestyle..i cant think of anything more corny

    joe banks why the fuck would you take your time to write some dumb shit like that out? “i never seen a college in my life” go fuck yourself

    He isnt talkin bout wayne or expressing his opinion indirectly at wayne at all… cuz if u see whole interview there is just one segment where he talks about waynes style of not writing and he just says hows he’s jealous of wayne cuz he can come up with shit in his head and never right anything down and he acknowledges kanye, jeezy, and andre 3k

    I’m happy to hear a rapper say, he takes the time in writing lyrics down!
    If you listen to ‘Paper Trail’ you can hear that TIP’s lyrics were much better than his previous album. U could hear that paper trail had lyrics where he thought about instead of just sayin shit on the spot.

    I completely agree with Drake!
    And Im expectin alot from this guy in the future! He could be one of the greats but ofcourse hes not there yet…
    But this guy knows music to well to drop something fake I think.
    Im expecting a (near)classic album from this guy!

    People who still dont know why his buzz is so BIG should listen to his lyrics.

    ‘Successful’,'Ignorant shit’ and my personal favorit, ‘SAY WHATS REAL’
