im not really a fan of either of them dudes but u a damn fool if u think gucci is more popular than drake... 75% of gucci fans will never buy a real album...
Its not a popularity contest....Hov is more popular than both of them...but he's not in the running at all.
I like Drakes work more than Gucci's but if you look at the outlets Gucci had to work with (basically none)...he had GREAT year...
Seems to me like you're ignoring your own initial question and only attempting to big up Gucci, which is fine, make that thread, but don't pose a question, get an answer with credible numbers and facts supporting that answer, then not honor or acknowledge the answer because it doesn't suit you.
Like I said before I'll give the year to Drake on the grounds that Gucci's buzz started alonnnnggg time ago. But to act like Gucci wasnt on the radio just as much as Drake this year is just silly. Gucci's buzz is just as big as Drake.
Drake worked with Mary/Gucci worked with Mariah
Drake has Digital Girl (which was a cool video but not that big of a song)/ Gucci actually made mario's Break Up a hit
Drake worked with Lil Wayne/ Gucci did also
Drake had a radio hit from a mixtape song (best I Ever Had) /Gucci does too ("Wasted' mind you with no record label push on the radio just a street buzz)
Drake has a hit with Trey Songz/ Gucci has "Beat It Up" with Trey Songz (not as big as successful but Gucci's people dont know what to do with that record)
Gucci has worked with R&B artistcreated buzz for his other artist (Waka, OJ all with radio hits)
Drake has the priveladge of being BET/MTV's golden child no doubt the boys is talented and most def more lyrical than Gucci. However Gucci has done wayyy more with less he started from the ground up with no kinda cosign. BET wont even play "Wasted" but they played "Best I Ever Had"
Out of the 2 Drake deserves Rookie of The YEar well thats because Gucci aint no dam rookie
well said good sir
