My Top Ten #fakedrake Lyrics

Drizzy Fake
Anyone who knows hip-hop knows that similes are either the 5th, 6th or 7th element of hip-hop, depending on what kind of mood KRS-One is in when he revises the list this week.
But just like all the other elements, the once-mighty simile is not respected like it used to be. Sure, young folks still love comparing themselves to things, but they also prefer to avoid the hassle of expressing a complete thought. So more often than not, nowadays they just blurt out two things that might be clever to compare, without bothering to formulate a sentence around them.
Although (contrary to current perception) he didn’t invent it, today’s top pop rapper Drake is a true master of this abbreviative art:
“Bout to set it off in this b***h. Jada Pinkett.”
“I can teach you how to speak my language. Rosetta Stone.”
“Your city faded off to brown. Nino.
Swimming in the money come and find me. Nemo.
If I was at the club you know I balled. Chemo.”
And yesterday twitter’s hip-hop community paid tribute to Drake’s fondness for abridged analogies, with an all-day onslaught of #fakedrake lyrics. Our secret panel of Terrible Fake Rhyme Analysts has compiled a list of the ten best:
# 10. Put slugs in your belly. Escargot. @bdetrick
# 9. If you pull one I’mma Draw Two. Uno. @igo2far
# 8. Like a good neighbor. State Farm. @ivanrott
# 7. I run this paper business. Michael Scott. @brokencool
# 6. I stay with a quarter in my system. Payphone. @stupiddopemoves
# 5. I was just giving her a ride home. Eddie Murphy. @brokencool
# 4. Just do it. Nike. @ivanrott
# 3. Rocawear chancletas. Camel toes. @bdetrick
# 2. [corporate slogan]. [corporation's name]. @IvanRott
# 1. You only move grams. Wheelchair. @bdetrick

why do you always suggest yelling?

I dont follow rap too much these days but it's hard to avoid on TV
the whole Young Money group thing, they all have the exact same flow (like Drake)
it's such a gimmick it's comical, not to mention the image aspect, it's really gotten out of control

I'm going to have to try...
"Got her to my station and I played her - Sony."

I'ma big fuckin moron. Drake.
