^yah I wasn't speaking on Drake, just on rap artists in general cause I know at one point you were trying to convince me that Crooked I was the goat. Crooked I's skills should could for something. Like being a great freestyler, dropping great guest verses. But we all know he comes up with his best material when he's working with others, aka being guided. Being a great rap artist? Able to carry an album? I don't see it. I'll use another rapper as a sort of antithesis to Crooked I. Masta Ace. As far as rappers I'd put him in my top 20. He has one of the most solid discographies out there. But at the same time he's not spitting multis and punchlines every line. And we all saw how he came weak on that rap battle with Boogieman. Still as a rapper I'd put him way over Crooked I because of the classic shit he has dropped over the years.
@Meho, i don't hate all mainstream music; all i said was Crooked I is a better than rapper than Drake & always will be.i don't care if Drake drops 10 albums & Crooked I never does, if Drake always sounds the way he does now, i'm positive Crooked I will be the better rapper.he is appealing to his fanbase with what he's currently doing.he appeared on the Slaughterhouse album & his fanbase loved it; along with Joe Budden, Royce & Joell Ortiz's fan bases.if you can't hear a DISTINCT difference in "The One" & "Find Your Love", i don't know what you're listening to, man lol.sure, they make "an attempt" at a single, but there is a line that they simply won't cross.he's pushing a Hip Hip album with the lead single as RnB, not to mention Action!, "Find Your Love" is CLEARLY aimed at females lol.anyway, for the Basketball player analogy, it's completely different because then when i said he was the best people would say, "he can't make it in the big leagues", with Crooked I, if he made it to the NBA (mainstream appeal, etc.), it would only affect his music negatively because his style of rap doesn't sell in 2010, so i'm actually happy he'll be a street baller for life. Drake will sell because he got it in with Lil' Wayne who has the most fans, Eminem sells because he's white & Jay-Z sells because he buys half a million of his albums lol.so if Crooked I is just going to drop internet leaks & Slaughterhouse albums, but all of it is hot as fuck, it'll work for me.

You can't just make your own album and ignore all the weak/average Crooked I songs that have come out. If albums were made using that criteria then most rappers could be considered one of the best. The test of a rapper's ability is their own ability to be consistent, not you making an album of their best material while ignoring everything else. I might as well say the same about Snoop, even though we all know he is hella inconsistent. If we rearranged his music and took the best songs from each album we could give him a much more solid discography. But that would just be fantasizing, not looking at reality.By the way, even if I took my favorite 20 Crooked I tracks, it would just be 20 of the same type of songs, not sure they would mesh at all.
