If I like an artist, I like ‘em. Hype doesn’t deter me unless said artist blows. Some people might say that about Drake, but I don’t really care to hate on him just because everyone else is pushing him. You can’t deny his craft and wit. Wrote about him recently in a piece to come. In the meantime, this beat, by Tha Bizness, knocks. As someone who always had my nose in the books while everyone else’s was in the dirt, I can so relate. A bit of modesty with a small pat on the back and a dash of keep-it-moving

Look at where I’m is, it’s only just begun
‘Cause I was stayin’ home when they was havin’ fun

Drake, “The Winner

Okay I do it for the love
Bunk bed flow, always one level above
If I’m in your starting five, you will never need a sub
And I’m never lookin’ down, so I always know wassup
A lotta people sayin’ fuck me
Problem is, they be tellin’ everybody but me
But I always got a Starbucks verse bein’ brewed too hot
Please, please double cup me
They never gave me support like Chuck Ts
And I never trust a nigga sayin ‘trust me’
Nick Cannon and Will never did it this ill
So you tell the house band, don’t you dare interrupt me
