lol clearly you haven't even heard a Drake song then... comparing Kardinal to Drake is like comparing Sean Paul to Fabolous .... its totally different... and people wont care if he's from Toronto, Toronto is the 5th biggest city in North America, the market is big enough to produce a rapper to be embraced by the States......
I've heard plenty of Drake's stuff or else I wouldn't be commenting on him. Im not comparing him stylistically to Kardi, Im comparing
market relevance. No Canadians have been able to make a impact on the hip hop scene in the States, we are very nationalistic when it comes to that sort ofthing. This ain't pop music, this is hip hop.

theese mags wont sell.

i dont mess with none of them dudes and if u take the names off, i bet nobody i know will recognize them either, cuz i didnt. only dude i recognized was Wale,and thats cuz im on NT. i havent/ dont wanna hear a single lyric from dude.

I disagree... and there is a first time for everything. It doesn't matter if a rapper is from Toronto, if an artist is good enough, the people will takenotice. And if Drake doesn't do it somebody else will. Toronto isn't a different planet, its got the same characteristics of a city no different thancities in the States, and in that they will be able to produce someone to make an impact on hip hop.

Yea you probably right. I commend them for doin' this though and puttin' sales to the side for a minute. Some might recognize Ace Hoodthough. They did this issue too early. They should've did it early '09 like they usually do. That's when label's start to push new artists.

 

[dukehead]

o wow..the LV and Nike Store is gonna be dope..I'm prob not gonna mess with buckland no more
Pardon MY post jack but got' damn I ain't realize it's that many OG CT head right cha'.

Buckland FTMFL!


-Gunz like a medical redshirt sophomore right now. He like Curtis Sumpter and Jason Fraser. Got all the talent in the world and ain't blow when they hadthe chance due to setbacks. They get a 2nd chance and put in serious work but will never be the player they were when they first came out.

-I'm sorry but if this the freshman class then hip-hop recruitin' like Coach K. Where the bigs and 5 star talent at? We dealin' wit'sugar-coated lightweight role players (Curren$y, B.O.B, Ace Hood) and 5 star players who got all the hype in the world but ain't gonna do %**% once theyhit the D1 level (Wale - my apologies fam but I just can't rock wit' you. Seem like cool peeps though).

-I'ma just keep Asher and Blu at the end of the bench and let them %@%%% fetch gatorade and towels for the starters

-Next freshman class better include Drake and that boi Illinois

[verdykt]

The Cool Kids got robbed, they have more of a buzz than half the dudes on the cover.
Them dudes are straight asscheeks. I tried listening to that Bakesale nonsense. Only album i've ever thrown out of the window.

My man went in, and dropped a bomb at the end like it ain't nothing

[hypebeast mcstreetwear]

+5 pages

 

[sole into it]

I can't even get down with Mickey or Charles like that. Lyrically, they're dope, I just can't get down with their voice, never really sounds rightwith the beat.

Wale = good money

.
Blu is crazy sick.

Props to XXL for doing this though.

how u gon type how u rap

dude types up a confused and cluttered diatribe on "why ppl should like me", people shouldnt have to have a "solid" reason for not likingyou. I dont like to listen to Bach..why, i have no idea, i just dont dig it. If they dont feel you they dont feel you. maybe its because you an ugly dude, ormaybe its because your from D.C, and the last good thing out of D.C on a national level was doin the butt. WHO KNOWS..but jesus no need to freggin pop upeverytime a wale thread pops up. cant wait for the album tho

 

[primesole]

I knew Wale would drop in on this thread, cant wait for the album

.

 

[freddyimperial]

Blu is the man. Factz is the man. Gunz is the man.

Everyone else. Trash.
