Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar, who is the best rapper?

While their albums More Life and DAMN. Continue to dominate the global charts, a question we’re taunting: who of Drake or Kendrick Lamar is the best rapper?
Fighting Titans! Available since April 14, DAMN is without a doubt the record that everyone spoke, wanted to talk, had to speak. “Hyper politics” for some, “fascinating” for others, the fourth studio album of the rapper came from Compton (California) almost unanimously. At la rédac Music of melty.fr, we love it – and not just because the 29-year-old artist managed to get Rihanna rapped on “Loyalty” . Solid and complete, DAMN. Is a record that has marked the spirits and will stay in the annals. The biggest cardboard of the year – for the time being – it sold no fewer than 603,000 copies in the United States of DAMN . The first week (of which 353,000 in physics). And if Drake owns one of the 10 best-selling albums in 2016 , his album / project More Life has sold only 505,000 copies in the US (including 226,000 in physics). Certainly correct numbers which enabled him to land his seventh album # 1 in a row . That said, too focused on the com ‘and the figures in streaming, the Canadian rapper would be losing ground in the rap game and would have forgotten that what matters is album sales and world tours. Here’s why we think Kendrick passed Master Drake. His album / project More Life has sold only 505,000 copies in the US (of which 226,000 in physics).

Here’s why we think Kendrick passed Master Drake.

1. Too much spleen kills the spleen . The beatmaker Noah “40” Shebib wanted it: Drake is not just rap, it’s a whole universe. A universe turned towards melancholy, nostalgia and a little romanticism. Author of hits such as “Started from the Bottom” , “Hold On, We’re Going Home” and more recently “One Dance” , Noah “40” Shebib is the man to whom Drake owes everything . But if the titles quoted above have all been cartoons, we must recognize that to play too much on this aspect of the singer, one would almost end up being sick of it. Opposite, Kendrick Lamar is on an upward slope that does not seem to have an end. Inspired by his childhood, His encounters and politics, the Californian keeps on being in the snapshot , claiming and reacting to what is currently happening. A way of seeing music that begins to bear fruit! After dethroning Ed Sheeran in the Billboard Hot 100 , we really do not know what could stop him today. And it is no surprise to anyone if Kendrick is already perceived as the worthy heir of Tupac Shakur, Notorious BIG, Jay Z, Nas or Eminem.

2. Singles for Drake, albums for Kendrick . This is probably what will have to be remembered of this confrontation (which did not really take place) in the charts. King of the streaming, Drake managed to classify almost all his last albums in the Billboard Hot 100. An exploit that deserves to be noted but that is not also extraordinary. Spotify and Apple Music are certainly rubbing their hands , but in the first week, Drake’s singles are still plummeting in the rankings. While Billboard has unveiled his 100 best choruses of the 21st century , Drake can boast three singles placed in the Hot 100 ( “Passionfruit”, “Portland”, “Gyalchester” ). That Kendrick Lamar fans will rightly reply that their darling is fourteen, that is, all the pieces of DAMN . ! What’s more, Drake only won 3 Grammy Awards (versus 7 for Kendrick) and received only one personal nomination for the album award of the year (against 2 for Kendrick).

3. The showbiz is breaking the myth Drake . Just as Jul has just confirmed the release of a new album for this summer and unveil an unpublished extract , the Canadian rapper is extremely prolific. These days, in addition to his own tracks, it can be heard on the tracks “No Frauds” by Nicki Minaj, “Come Closer” by WizKid and “Both” by Gucci Mane. An over-presence on the airwaves that may well be causing its loss. Yet , becoming too accessible, the author of “Take Care” would gradually lose its charm . Note also that there is a very good chance that, It is on the next album of Taylor Swift and not only as producer: a featuring is to be envisaged! And as if that were not enough, her highly-publicized romance with Jennifer Lopez would have been only a means to be able to sample her “If You Had My Love” on “Teenage Dream” and after their breakup, the voice of Jennifer Lopez was replaced on “Get It Together” . Musical choices risky or even downright doubtful for the one who has always been at the top by collaborating with his tender and dear Rihanna … Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar seems pus reglo, offering tubes to Taylor Swift ( “Bad Blood” ), Sia ( “The Greatest” ) and Beyonce.
