This album is more pop than it is hip-hop.  Hell, I find it how people hate on Drake yet praise B.o.B.  Drake is more hip-hop influenced than B.o.B.  Note, I'm not saying B.o.B is worst than Drake or Drake is better just that B.o.B is a pop artist.  He shines when he does pop or rock infused songs with spoken word tendencies ala The Kids.  I enjoy those tracks more than we he's more hip-hop aligned.

^could be because Drake gets recognition as a "great rapper" & it's like "fuck that".

anyway, personally, i heard Nothin' On You & Airplanes 1 & 2 & that's all "Hip Hop", in my opinion.

[Action!]

Those are more pop orientated than they're hip-hop - especially airplanes.  I'm not hating, I enjoy Airplanes.  Nothing On You is just an R&B pop song.

yeah, but at least he raps the verses on them; Drake has full out songs of him just singing.

B.oB sings, did you not hear Satellite? 

I just find it funny and kind of ignorant people hate on Drake for being or creating "pop" or "r&b" infused music yet praise B.o.B for his music which is essentially poppy, r&b infused music with less hip-hop.    It just looks hypocritical and stupid.

I'd say B.o.B is more rock-pop than R&B-pop.
