The Drake/Kanye/Minaj simile usage without using like/as?

Example: I was drinking like a fish.........Nemo

Who started this? I always wanted to know. NO, I am not saying anyone mentioned above invented anything.

Drake brought it mainstream. And by mainstream I mean writing an entire verse (on a popular record) using that flow.

He took it from Big Sean, who had a mixtape track called Supa Dupa where he uses the flow for the entire song.

Where did Sean get it from? Who knows. I've heard Sean P & Mook use it. Killa Cam also. Maybe Sean heard it too & bit.

Obviously, nobody before Sean used that flow as prominently as Sean did. So you can say he's the pioneer.

I'm pretty sure somebody did it before Cam'Ron. Then Big Sean started doing it, then Drake/Lil Wa_n_ came through and beat it to death like Daniel Bryan. So you can thank those 2 for killing it destroying that type of flow.
 
Earliest examples that I remember

Killa:

-I stab a ***** over ice, Nancy Carrigan (Something on Killa Season)
-Make me put my arms up, touchdown
-I don't see a touchdown, arms up, field goal (More Gangsta Music)

Wayne
-Can't see me, Ray Charles (Bird Call)

Then Kanye had the lines on Graduation (possibly written my Medium Sean)

-D's mfer D's.....Rosie Perez
-Salty Looks....Lawry's

Then Small Sean came out with Supa Dupa and the garbage that we know as "hashtag rap" took off
