Whats wrong wit niccas? Why they always gotta disrespect the people that came before em?
I don't know how anybody could just up and forget Bone when making a claim like that. Did Drake really forget those cats(Bizzy especially), or does he question their success.

Reading the thread title, I thought bout Monch being one of the few cats who I think can legitimately rap and sing well. Tonedeff is another in that rare breed.

Neither of them gained mainstream success, so they don't factor into what he was saying. I'd throw in DMX as somewhat of a wild card. DUring certain parts of his delivery, his verses have a melody to it. he mixed singing and rapping together with his songs. Rule came along later and did the same, but still there has been nobody who really sounded like X.

Although DMX falls into the same category as Cee lo. wherein, his singing ability is questionable. You either like what he's bringing to the table, or you don't.

Props to Philly B for mentioning Phonte.[pic]

that's why i respect the diss record luda made for drake and big sean these fools always claiming they started !! but they need a history lesson. drake is particulary stupid, he also said ye and hov jacked the collab album concept from him and wayne when hov discussed doing an album with biggie way before that. dumb nicca even forgot meth and redman and hov and r kelly. 1st successsful jewish rapper 1st successful artist from canada that's all i'll give him other than that he aint pioneer !!

Drake's delusional[..] was even preceded by a whiteboy back in 1993
Album - 12 inches of snow = PLATINUM

Fixed.

Seems to me that Snow was one of, if not thee first solo artist to successfully rap and sing.
