Uncharted, it's not like that. Percee really doesn't spit for people in person that often unless he's doing a show. What we did do was chill at a tattoo parlor/art gallery that Perce and my man Mnemonic were talking about doing a music video at and listening to "Perseverance" while everyone else was smoking weed (Percee is straight-edge. I guess he's never been drunk before, done any drugs or smoked anything which is something we share in common). Mostly we were talking about different things. He seems to prefer taking back streets to freeways so we took like 1 hour plus to get to his house and we were just talking about shit. He was showing me videos of his family (he has 2 kids) and things like that. Man, this dude is the true definition of perseverance though. He lives in a gated community, paid for by hip hop and he still takes the bus 40 miles every day to get to Melrose to Fat Beats to sell his music like a street hustler all day every day.

Yeah, he's 39 or 40 (idk his b-day, but if he isn't 40 yet, he will be soon). What's crazy is his kids are only 3 and 1.

Anyways, on topic... Drake. I will be honest and say I haven't heard nearly enough to pass a completely fair judgment, but from what I've heard so far -- every track -- I've actually gotten him confused with Lil Wayne. That is something that I cannot respect. I was hanging out with Percee P last night and I ended up driving him home and this came up. He agrees that there is nothing more fake than an artist who bites his style from another artist. Even if it was Big Daddy Kane that he sounded EXACTLY like (of course, granted, I may actually think it's decent at first, but it wouldn't be impressive because I've heard it before) I still would be calling him out because it is fake to sound like another dude who is already out there. Does no one else see this? It's not just hip hop that has suffered this. I can't stand people in Jazz that try to sound exactly like legends. I mean doing covers is different but when you hear someone that is just copycatting a style it isn't orginal or creative and therefore I wouldn't call it art. Now, if you guys don't know already, I am open minded, so I'd be down to listen to some Drake tracks if you send me ONLY what you think I may like and I will analyze it lyrically and sound-wise, but remember, music is not just about the lyrics. I don't just hate Lil Wayne's lyrics, that's just a bonus reason. His flow pisses me off. As Joker would put it, it makes me want to eat rusty, AIDS infested heroin needles so if he has a track that sounds NORMAL and actually has good lyrics (and remember, I have a VERY high standard for what "good" lyrics are), send me the link. For me to say he's not wack though he would have to have at least 10 dope tracks and then MAYBE I'll say he's decent. I doubt it will happen but if it does I am open to it

Uncharted.... LMAO! I can't agree with your reasoning bro

Oh, and Meth, "Duffle Bag Boy" SUCKS! Now you know how much I HATE the song "Make The World Go Round." And seriously, "Untitled" had some shitty fucking pop melody ass beats.

u called Royce "mediocre"?!?! Royce >>>>>> Big Daddy Kane? Royce is shitting on BDK dispite him for being a legend

and if thats your reason for hating Drake then its RETARDED thats wat Ive been trying to say

since LL DMX and cube actors and rap dey soft?
i dont think so

Drake is whack as fuck and should get shot.

Oh, and Uncharted, my reaction to Perce about his kids was "well, better late then never" which was his exact same response when I said I unfortunately only found out about him in 2007 when "Perseverance" dropped.
