Who Is About To Takeover Hip Hop: Drake Or Kid Cudi?

Drake & Kid Cudi

Both artist are backed by major artist, with Lil Wayne praising Drake’s abilities and Kanye West co-signing Kid Cudi’s music. Kid Cudi’s track, “Day N Nite,” was a major success and he has more potential hits with, “Sky May Fall,” & “Pokerface.”

Drake, “So Far Gone,” mixtape is one of the most popular tapes of the year. “Best I Ever Had,” & “Successful,” off the mixtape are actually getting radio play across the country. Drake has been getting exposure while appearing during Lil Wayne’s recent tour & in Young Money’s, “Every Girl,” video.

With that said who do you see taking over the Hip Hop game? Do feel they are over rated or the real deal? And if not one of these two, what other young artist has potential to blow up?

  6. Ghana is the WHole of AFRICA Says:

    Drake= Waynes GhostWriter not versatile and looking like jason kidd 2.0

    Kidi Cudi=the poor man’s lupe and a weirdo

    Thank you that is all.

  7. ESKIMOE Says:

    Kid Cudi and Wiz Khalifa

    drake is eh

  8. swizzle Says:

    Drakes buzz is crazy Cudi is cool too think Drake more due to his female fans and cudi dont say crazy shit in his rhymes like that but that next nigga is Pay$0z

  9. Cutta Says:

    I do think both will do extremely well tho…Kid Cudi’s “Poke her Face” is my shit.. Drake has alot of good songs just off his mixtapes that are getting him maddd attention. I just think Drake prolly has more support behind him to push him ahead of Kid Cudi.

    @#6..stupidest comment ever..Drake not versatile?? dude sings and raps and one of the few who can ACTUALLY DO BOTH GOOD, and how could he ghost write for somebody who goes straight from the dome u idiot…and kill ya self with that Kid Cudi remark. It just proves that ur just on here to hate on a nigga. go play in traffic blindfolded.

  10. Tmtjg Says:

    Drake’s So Far Gone is depressing. I fucks with Cudi plus Ye is my nigga.

  11. djdjek Says:

    none of em will be taking over Hip Hop, imo.

  12. chris penn Says:

    i got a better chance on a good comm up then them posers…….lil wayne and kanye needa keep they entoureges on the low cuz they makin em look bad….nicki minaj could murder these cats real talk……….wheres all the jr writer hype on his new shit coming out…….instead we gotta talk about the charlie brown and the black dude from family guy….strait cartoon characters.strait out a book

  13. me Says:

    i hope you werent saying wayne goes straight off the top lmao what a joke when asked to freestyle he spits shit that he already released

  14. chris penn Says:

    wayne is a mixtape artist…almost every song he has .got a previously used line in it hahah

  15. 2cents Says:

    I wanna ELROY a shorty! Man I’m on that stupid fruity ish…lmao! PSYCH! Sounds so homo… but thats something else this radio ish is retarted…

    as for Drake and Kid… I would prefer both jus work and entertain their market! People who TAKE OVER tend to be too d@mn deep in the pocket! DRake is mad versatile and Kudi is jus on some other ish whether real or manufactured but I like most the stuff I’ve heard from both… don’t see either gettin too big though as hip hop artist! They may go POP and sell out the window but thats not the same imo!

  16. AV Says:

    Cudi, hands down!

    Drake appeals only to the hip hop audience but Kid Cudi has a worldwide (!) Top 10 hit with “Day & Night”. Nobody knows Drake for example in Europe but Cudi is biiiig over there. And people worldwide rather go for Kanye’s music than Wayne’s music. And from the point of style/swagger/attitude I believe that Cudi is not only hip hop (he’s just fresh) while Drake is definitely hip hop.

  17. 2shooters Says:

    lol..
    Outta The New Niggas Neither..
    I Actually Think CH Is Better Than Both Them..
    Drake Is A Wayne/Kanye Clone..
    And Cudi Is Yayayayaya..Ya Know..lol..

    The Features Could Net Them More Sells Than CH Tho..
    Yuck More Ye/Wayne…….Smh..

  18. ReBeLR Says:

    I guess I’m the only non Drake fan. Cudi got my vote.

  19. ballermal Says:

    Im guessin Wale aint in the argument….FUCK THAT. Lol Wale is the nicest lyrically if anything him and drake are on the same pg both clever witty and talented. I can listen to cudi all day cus im a stoner but as far as HIP HOP goes just wait for the Back to the Feature mixtape by Wale and I think yall remember why he was gettin all the early hype b4 these dudes.

  20. Crnblz Says:

    None these niggas was getting love on this site when they were bubbling underground.

  21. Crnblz Says:

    with that being said, there’s room for both. just like there’s room for Wayne & Kanye. Cudi & Drake are too different artists with different lanes. this was a stupid question. i get the point of it but it still was stupid lol.

  22. -trackstar Says:

    DRAKE IS OVERRATED JUST LIKE HIS CAMP

  23. BigD Says:

    Drake be rappin to slow sumtimes and spit punchlines like he’s the 2nd coming.
    Im not really on the Cudi shit yet besides poker face n day n nite. he dont even sound that nice tho 2 be honest. What about J. Cole? Nickelus F? Wale? Nipsey Hussel?

  24. Superman - Hip Hop Says:

    Kid Cudi is nice. Drake is weak. When that Cudi album drop imma cop it.

  25. Leonidas1 Says:

    DRIZZY DRAKE ROGERS!!! HAND DOWN!! CUDI IS COOL BUT HE DOESN’T HAVE THAT MASSS APPREAL LIKE DRAKE. THAT WHOLE “SO FAR GONE” FELT LIKE AN ALBUM DUDE IS BOUT TO BLOW UP IN A MAJOR WAY.

  26. ElonSkee Says:

    - Kid Cudi
    I’ve listened to day and night like 3 times… sky might fall 0 && pokerface 20 times…

    - Drake
    …. you dont wanna know how much his stuff be on repeat

  27. hernani Says:

    i think drake´s about to takeover hip-hop
    he has everything a good rapper needs..
    “so far gone” is the sh*t!

  28. king Says:

    what about J.Cole, Mickey Factz and Fred Da Godson

  29. flsh522 Says:

    cudi is nice, drake is nice, but im REALLY gettin tired of niggas recyclin drake shit on EVERY mixtape dat he has out!…and oh ..DO NOT SLEEP ON wale, wiz khalifa, and big sean (anutha artist under kanye’s wing)

  30. Bro Says:

    Neither. Hip hop is dead

  31. sdot2722 Says:

    Drake has a better chance than kid cudi but drakes about to become really commercial they already play 3 of his mixtape songs on the radio. And all he talks about is women, problems with women, and money. Another thing i noticed about drake is he starting to talk about smoking weed and stuff since he started hanging out with wayne. Be urself drake you aint no weed smoker.

  32. sdot2722 Says:

  33. sdot2722 Says:

    and drake doesnt seem that nice now that everyone including my 13 year old cousin knows about him now.

  34. Ayo Says:

    *daps up #24* YES BIG SEAN IS A PROBLEM I CANT WAIT TO HEAR THAT “Donald Trump” track whoooooo (big sean > drake) Ok so drake was cool back in ‘07 when he put out “brand new” not hating but now he’s gettin stains so I’m not feeling fam *pause* maybe cause he’s fuckin with yung money that’s my reason. G.O.O.D Music is about to take over along with the homie CH

  35. napoleon Says:

    CUDI, HANDS DOWN. DRAKE IS AVERAGE. CUDI IS HIP-HOP BUT STANDS OUT.
    I’M NOT GONA SAY TAKE OVER HIP-HOP. CUDI WILL BE UP THERE THO.

    I THINK DRAKE WILL BE LIKE SOULJA BOY, ONLY LITTLE TEENY BOPPERS LIKE HIM. WHILE GROWN FOLKS & TEENS LISTEN TO CUDI, CAUSE OF HIS SOUND

  36. lotus42021 Says:

    Neither of these lames asses it will be charles hamilton

  37. daffysci Says:

    YAll niggas is crazy.. ever since CH came out with that Barbara Walters shit he’s been dead in my book.

    Cudi is okay but he needs to stop thinking he can sing.

    Drake is fire.. Who else gets this much love off a mixtape? When that album drops hiphop will offically be his.

  38. nessnice Says:

    only 1 dat has a chance is drake, cudi aint doin no more than 30k first week and hamilton has no chance at all he just local… drake has national appeal, just on the strength he has 2+ songs spinnin on national radio, thats put him 1000x ahead of hamilton who has put out 30 mixtapes in the past year and manager to get only 1 song played on NY radio, bk girl. Cudi has 1 on national radio thats been playin for the past year, that i think ppl only took notice when jim jones jumped on it, wheres the follow up??? point being, drake has accomplished more in 2month with the release of so far gone that cudi or ch has not been able to do in the past year while they had the spotlite on them (freshman 10) and now drake aint even in the same class as them, hes like a freshman playin varsity on the verge of goin pro. like em or not he got next…

  39. G-Roc Says:

    look at all these wayne dick riders voting for drake, cudi got my vote, and drake mixtape was ass get off his dick, download that lloyd banks mixtape 4-30-09

  40. dreny Says:

    Neither.kid cudi is boring and nicki manaj and j mills are better than drake. so there u have it.

  41. Brandon B. Says:

    @nessnice i definately agree, niggas need to clarify, drake is taking over based on the fact that he doin what he doin in a matter of 2-3 months whereas these cats have been on it for a while. Now im a Big Sean fan and Wiz Khalifa is hot but they just not there yet. And im from NYC i just dont like Charles Hamilton, his voice annoys me.

  42. Hi Hater! Says:

    Drake…EASY!!!! every university he’s going, every girl knows the lyrics to “Best I Ever Had”

    Nigga can rap AND sing! Plus Kid Cudi is wack (uh oh, get mad stans!!!)

    Drizzy Drake!! Im Waiting For The Album

  43. PIGGY ROSS AKA THE CAPS LOCK MONSTER™ Says:

    NEITHER IS ”TAKING OVER HIPHOP”,THEY BOTH WILL SELL ENOUGH TO BE CONSIDERED ‘SUCCESSFUL BY THE HIPHOP COMMUNITY.WHO WILL SELL MORE IS THE REAL QUESTION.

    ALSO,PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO MICKEY FACTZ,IF THE MARKETING AND BEATS ARE GOOD,HE’S GOING TO MAKE A SPLASH.

  44. LaMa Says:

    I think it will be Drake…cause he’s more versatile than Cudi…Cudi doesn’t have as many great songs as Drake..he needs to step it up…Another rapper that’s in the underground scene that should be heard is Jae B…he has hit records that needs to be heard…go google him

  45. NEGRO PLEA$E Says:

    #25 I agree. I’m not feeling, or impressed by either one. Neither one are about to takeover shit.

    The only new school cat im feeling is B.o.B

  46. Lil Lee Says:

    First off Drake is just a Lil Wayne clone and a fag off Degrassi and Kid Cudi is tha truth from cle.
    Drake is way overhyped and tries to be Wayne too much period he should be himself (fag). I think its a shame you guys pick Drake over Kid Cudi but you guys should here his “Higher Up” song. I see Kid Cudi all the time he’s a real dude he hangs in cle all the time.

    Go here for new exclusive Kid Cudi ft. Lil Lee

  47. Hip hop Says:

    They both aint got shit on that dude Payso!!!!!!!!!

  48. eric2009 Says:

    yeah Payso is the best!!

  49. AJB4 Says:

    MY ONLY QUESTION TO U GUYS SAYIN’ THAT DRAKE WILL BLOW UP… TELL ME WHO’S THE LAST PERSON TO DROP AN ALBUM OFF OF YOUNG MONEY

  50. DineroeJ Says:

    Drake all day. Have u seen how fast his concerts sell out. Cudi reminds me of FABO wit his weird dressin ass. Plus u hear more drake verses being recycled than wayne nowadays.

  51. josip Says:

    Charles Hamilton ain’t shit, he’s pure garbage who spits brainless random rap.

  52. That P.R. Kid Says:

    i personally think drake by far. jus becuz his swag on a track is wayyyyy more official than cudi’s. and idk but cudi be on sum real weird shit sumtimes. like he jus be on sum other shit! but drake jus might have it a lil more cuz of his female following.

  53. outta757 Says:

    both are talented in different aspects of their own music.

    Drake- has a smooth delivery when he’s spittin, and can do his thing lyrically at times.singin def. helps him because it allows him to expand what he wants to do with different songs.n i think all the girls are feelin him right now too.so that would help album sales n all that.

    Cudi- is just completly different all together.which is cool cuz his music is a reflection of that.his delivery is ill and he can spit.n he sings too,so that allows you to be a little more creative.i think people are quick to jus hate on him cuz they dont take the time to try to listen to his songs.i have a couple of his tapes n im feelin a majority of music.

    i think both will do well. Wayne and young money behind Drake, and Kanye behind Cudi.that will draw a lot of fans for both just from the following of wayne and Ye. and Wale nice too.

  54. king Says:

    i fuxx wit both of them but drake is dat nigga….idk why niggas be hatin but drake is dat nigga

  55. seyi Says:

    Drake hands down is the better lyricist but i think cudi will have a better base i mean the guy has a track for Transformers 2 and did kanye’s 808 and people forgot about his classic mixtape man on the moon which is a lil better then so far gone in my opinion. Drake is neck and neck with cudi but wat im saying is the cudi has that edge beacuse of his songs which attract a different type of audience….and by the way i think good music is way more talented than young money

  56. The Light Says:

    Yo all of the Hate not necessary at all, Cudi has versatility as far as songs go, Drake Lyrics are nice. Hip Hop needs the Versatility from the both of them to balance it out

  57. G-Roc Says:

    S-K-Y-Z-O-O Is better Than Both Them

  58. The Light Says:

    outta757* Co Sign
    Co Sign

  59. daffysci Says:

    #49 he’s with interscope.

  60. Ed Says:

    Cant wait for that Drake album, but Cudi is cool 2.

    Peace

  61. outta757 Says:

    #49.tyga already dropped.most them dudes wit young money got solo deals with other labels.so it aint like young money holdin em back.unless they signed to cash money.which i think millz and mack maine is.

  62. twan508 Says:

    go back to the top…read ESKIMOE’s comment…number 7…

  63. AJ Says:

    Factz and Drake for ‘09

  64. BBC25 Says:

    I Like Em Both

  65. Lil Wayne2010 Says:

    Yo i fucks wit drake but i just heard this Payso dude….wow…dude might be the next one up and im a yung money fan but i think Payso is Better then Wayne and drake ….honest opinion

    Drake still my nigga though

  66. M. Burmy Says:

    Both of them will be the ICONS of their era…Drake has a good balance with his music, as does Cudi…Both have also been getting major spins even before their major deals!

    I say they’re two of hip-hop’s new breed! As are Charles Hamilton, Wale, Bobby Ray, and quite a few others. This is the best class hip-hop’s gotten in a while…You fake gangstas just hatin’ because YOUR REIGN AT THE TOP IS ABOUT TO END!

    What’s taking over hip-hop again? ART, that’s what!

  67. MrWillDoIt Says:

    Drake easy. Cudi doesn’t say anything–what do people see in him?

    Day N Nite was a dope song, yes. But So Far Gone is the best album this year….and it’s not even an album!! Every song was dope.

    Drake Drizzy Rogers, don’t forget the Rogers!

  68. Brave Kid Says:

    Co-Sign #57, Skyzoo is the greatest

  69. gem Says:

    I DIGG BOTH ARTIST I WANNA COLLAB WITH BOTH ! I BELIEVE THEY WILL BE AMONGST THE ALTETE WHEN ITS ALL SAID AND DONE WITH HARD WORKK !
    IM DROPING MY SINGLE “SHES TOSSEN” PLEASE LOOK OUT FOR THt im BRINGING SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFF 2 THE TABLE TRUST ME STAY TUNEDD….

  70. danga1181 Says:

    DRAKE got it….Cudi is cool but has some weird rhymes. Drake is that nigga showin ya’ll that Canadian cats can spit. The only thing is my dude can never get in no beef or they will start showing clips of him when he was on that shoiw Degrassi…lol.

  71. FuTuRe Says:

    Drake is nice as fuck…I cosign dude because he’s real and looks like a humble cat. Just got him featured on this joint “Keep Dreaming” so look out for that. But Kid Cudi is not even all that to me. Dude is kinda boring if you ask me. But I feel nevertheless that the realness is coming back to hip hop. Timeless music is what we need tho…

  72. 2shooters Says:

    What About Yung LA? Aint I?

    Dude Gotta Futuristic Type Feel To His Records..
    To Bad T.I. Gotta Go To Jail Tho..

    His Style Even Rubbed Off On T.I..

    http://www.imeem.com/people/kQRTrv2/music/edB-KOUh/ti-turn-my-beat-down/

  73. dj fresh2def Says:

    Kid cudi is way more marketable for me. His style is fresh, his songs are cool and new. Drake just sounds like all the other trash i have heard out right now. If people have good taste they will probably cop Cudi’s album over drake’s.

  74. coolie Says:

    >>>>>>>>>>LISTEN<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>> O YEA AND CORY GUNZ IS NEXT TO!!!!!!!!!!

  75. yardie Says:

    cudi already have a top 5 billboard hit

    so he’s ahead right now

  76. yardie Says:

    oh yeah sky might fall might be another hit ..especially if it makes the transformers soundtrack

  77. djmokey350 Says:

    drank aint nuthin his lines are juss like waynes no reall meaning cudi actually can rap about real life even in his freestyles but i give drake

  78. JUICE Says:

    YB THE ROCKSTAR (YA BOY) GUNNA TAKE OVER HIP HOP!

  79. JOMOMMA Says:

    hope both can do well.. drakes my niggg tdot stand up

  80. ya boy Says:

    Umm to the nigga who said j millz is better than drake. Ummmmm wtf. Millz is terrible. Straight horrible

  81. Gooooooooood LOOKS! Says:

    i love how nowadays if you dont like someone, its hating LOL

    nigga drake is garbage. Cudi is refreshing music its a new style. i’ll take that

  82. doda18 Says:

    both are hot were do people come up with the wierdo thing they are hip hop artist and u ant go make a buzz if u are the same and we woulnt be talking bot niether if they wasnt different

  83. TheRockwell Says:

    G.o.D. Jewels > Drake x Cudi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  84. beans Says:

    never heard any songs from cudi But my nigga drake so far gone heart brake drake best 2 mixtapes of 08-09 so far next to all the coke waves of course but THE REAL NIGGAS TAKIN OVA THE GAME RIGHT NOW IS FRENCH MONTANA AND MAX b

  85. the real gangster Says:

    DRAKE is doo doo!!! and kid cudi got kanye as a label mate G.O.O.D.music/universal records
    he alredy has a hiphop top i-tunes seller day&night and he has more buzz than DRAKE he is on MTV DRAKE is not!!!!!cudi is on the radio DRAKE is not .he has a lot of great mextapes and he is in magazines and his album is coming out in 09′THE YEAR OF KID CUDI!!!!!!!!!!!!DRAKE ant on his level.

  86. alex951 Says:

    eminem is taking this shit back fuck all these other rappers, what happen to wildin out and being violent, what happen the ruff rugged and raw beats and videos? music is shit now!!!!

  87. downtown504 Says:

    Drake is killin it right now. Kid cudi is nice too. But cudi will def get more play because he’s with g.o.o.d. Wayne and co. Have a bad rep of not putting out artist. Drake should get his own deal. And ch is wack. Wale psyaco go way harder than ch

  88. bMore_6*_gaNg Says:

    YOOOOOO, YUNG LA WILL B BETTER DEN THESE TO FOOLS

    SURE, DRAKE HAS POTENCIAL, BUT KID CUDI, UMMM NAW!!!

    GRANDHUSTLE NIGGA

  89. STAYzFRESH Says:

    DRAKE IS NEXT TO BLOW I SEEN DUDE IN CONCERT N HE JUST GO IN PERIOD DUDE CAN SPIT AND HE CAN SING BUT KID CUDI IS STRAIGHT TO BUT I FUCK WIT DRAKES SHIT MORE

  90. M527 Says:

    J. Cole

  91. esKwire Says:

    i’ve given a solid listen to both & it’s drake by far. so far gone is the best album to come out this year (and its not an album) and comeback season still goes hard. cudi would be a better artist if he’d stop singing, his voice is terrible & f’s up his songs. and by the way, drake is not signed to yung money, he’s just associated with them. he has his own deal with interscope

  92. ElonSkee Says:

    ^^^ didnt flex say interscope aint getting airplay no more lmfao at NY bumpin drake every 5 minutes

  93. NewKidHouston Says:

    CuDi is deep with most all his songs… even the upbeat ones have something deep, drake is better lyrically, its all preference but ‘I will be coping both of CuDi’s albums this year: Man on the Moon and The Almighty GloryUs (w/Chip tha Ripper)
    I would definitely have to say CUDI tho, just me, both are dope though

  94. nessnice Says:

    actually drake is still unsigned…

  95. z-ro Says:

    NEITHER IF Yall HADNT NOTICED THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE AKA Z-RO IS FINALY GETTING TV EXPOUSER

  96. MILKY1 Says:

    yeah what the other guy said SKYZOO

  97. bushwick pure Says:

    these niggaz is both fuckn hot trashhhhh….lol kid cudid is actually from bushwick nigga usto get slapped up then moved to the chi i guess

  98. noelle Says:

    They are both cool, but the only Drake song I liked was Replacement Girl. I mean…how can you go handicapped on Degrassi???

  99. noelle Says:

    And just be fine in a wheelchair ?

  100. chitownnigga Says:

    nobody cuz wayne got this shit foreva.LOL!! naw but drake iz the next best thing hands down!

  101. Loco Says:

    Y’all need to quit sucken who??????? dick!. Kid cudi is the truth, but y’all wouldn’t know it until he makes millions, and people start jackin’ his 808’s with autotones, with fat beats, and starts a new genre. So ya keep listenin’ to WHooo?? mixtape, maybe ones of his tracks be cool by next summer. no promotional money tho.

    p.s. tell baby to kiss Wayne again. Go DJ

  102. ZooYork12387 Says:

    @32

    how the hell you know drake dont smoke weed? thats such a dumb assumption since you dont know shit about what he does in his life, not like you know the dude or anything.

    Drake is gonna do big things, the amount of female fans he has as it is be up there. He got a lot of male fans too. for someone to go from degrassi to hip-hop and have even the slightest buzz let alone airplay from a mixtape is amazing. Drake can sing really good on the hooks and go hard on the raps in the verses.

    Kid Cudi isnt bad, just dont wanna talk to much about him since ive only really listened to day n nite (LOOOOVE that song tho) and Pokerface (like it alot, not as much as day n nite tho).

    Asher Roth seems to have a lot of buzz but he aint taking over hip hop but hell do good, G.Malone been around a lil longer but I feel hell do good. Charles Hamilton seems like a dud (mad talented tho), Wale is good, Corey Gunz is next in line to be great tho imo, the dude has skill.

  103. SMH Says:

    Kid Cudi New Mixtape was Better Then So Far So Gone In my Opinion So I Would Have To say Kid Cudi Plus He Had A mainstream Hit IN “Day N Nite” But Both Have Great Music.. Better Than Most Of these Dudes Out There.

  104. sk Says:

    Drake cuz he has the females and “best i ever had” is technically not pop at all. Plus Cudi already “quit” if Lupe took 2 albums to blow Cudi has no chance. He don’t have the ethic. Drake had 3 mixtapes I’m not searchin for Cudi shit but I don’t think he’s been trying as hard. Drake is not a Wayne rip off he’s adaptable on Wayne tracks aside from that his shit is not like Wayne from content to delivery.

  105. Alkada Says:

    DRAKE by A LAND SLIDE! It’s not even close!
    And allow me to say, I AM NOT A FAN of Lil Wayne and I rock w/Ye, but the boy Drake is the illest fresh new original MC out there right now!

  106. champ21 Says:

    yoo payso is the truth man im glad ppl said that dude is a monster

  107. drizzy1316 Says:

    FUCK WORNG WIT YALL WHO SAYIN CUDI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DRIZZY GOT THIS SHIT ON LOCK…….. AND IF U THINK OTHER WISE…..FUCK U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  108. TGTHAHUSTLA Says:

    DRAKE HANDS DOWN!
    I HAVENT INVESTED THIS MUCH CONFIDENCE IN AN ARTIST EVER. I HONESTLY
    THINK DRAKE WILL BE CONSIDERED THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE IN JUST A MATTER OF TIME.
    HE HAS INCREDIBLE SONG WRITING ABILITY PLUS HE SINGS AND RAPS, I FUXX WIT CUDI YA DIGG, DATS MY NIGGA, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THIS HIP HOP SHIT…DRAKE GOT IT ON LOCK!

  109. pacodatharlembaby Says:

    CHARLES MUTHAFUCKIN HAMILTON THE NYCEST OUT OF ALL THE NEW CATS HARLEM STAND THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  110. Jobe Says:

    On sum real shyt, Drake is gonna run outta shyt to say eventually and sooner then people think. He aint gon rap about degrassi, he aint gon rap about the streets, he aint gon rap about drugs, and he aint gon rap about his issues cuz lets face it, and he aint got shyt to complain about!!! Its juss gonna be money, women, and money. I for 1 will get tiered of the same song wit a diffrent tune. Kid Cudi, dont listen to him dat much. from wut i did hear he real creative wit it but who cares?!! aint dat nigga quittin rap anyway??!!! Look out for J. Cole./ J. Cole = Potential.

  111. Tyme Tha TyRant Says:

    Drake and Cudi nice if u ask me cuz i dont really fuck wit eitha of em but Drake went off on dat everygirl track n who aint bumpin “Day N Nite”? so yea big ups to both dem niggas. and im wit dude on da hatin situation jus cuz u dont like an artist dont mean u hatin. im from da south niggas up north dont fuk wit our music like dat n we dont call it hatin, u jus become 1 out of another 100 sum ppl who dont like dat artist. Gucci da perfect example mayne. but fuck allat check my shit out http://www.myspace.com/tymen21

  112. Cole Says:

    Drake and Cudi are both fucking sick in my opinion, I think Drake has more mainstream potential though. Wale, khalifa, big sean, couple of the other new cats are pretty dope too.

    Smh at them niggas hatin on drake and cudi and feeling c. hamilton.
    come on man be honest… c. hamilton is the weakest dude in hip-hop right now.

    On the real, I think Drake might take this one cuz we all know women buy albums and guys download most of them.
    Drake and Cudi have mass appeal world-wide. Cudi for touring wit Kanye and Drake cuz of Wayne and the fact that he did that TV show Degrassi (which honestly was poorly acted…by pretty much the entire cast).
    Cudi’s got more flare, while Drake’s got more swag just like there team leaders Yeezy and Weezy respectively.
    On the real I can name you like 10 Cudi songz, can maybe 3 I can recite lines from and most of which I got tired of after a bit (especially day’n'nite cuz ppl been playin dat track a year ago and now all these late comers are jumping in on dis) where as I download the Drake mixtape the day it came out and I still pump 80% of the tracks on a daily basisplus some of his older shit from earlier ones(nobody can forget Ransom). Plus correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Cudi say he wanted to give up rhymin and go into acting? Hopefully he changed his mind.

    No should dismiss guys like Charles Hamilton, Wale and B.o.B. (i prefer Wale out of those 3). But it is clear these two are the definitely the most marketable.
    A lot of ppl been waitin on Drake to release and album since Replacement girl back in ‘05 or somethin so he’s super anticipated and he only got 1 video out and just officially released his first single in like 4 years. Cudi’s got like 3-4 videos I bet you, ppl only know of like 2 Day’n'Nite and the crookers remix.
    The laid back relaxed swag is heavy in da streets wit The Cool Kids, Fabolous and Asher Roth and to some extent guys like Jay-Z and T.I.
    Some of the ‘hardest’ negros I’ve ever met in my life be on dat Drake tip

    I think if Drake could come out with better videos i.e. Breast I ever Had, excuse me, Best I Ever Had and Cudi would tighten up his lyrical belt, i.e. A Kid Named Cudi followed up by that silly ass effort Dat Kid From Cleveland, then both have the potential to be the greats of the next generation.

    yo that nigga cudi is crazy

  117. James Says:

    I’m gonna go wit Cudi on this one, just because he is on some next shit. He’s just himself, he not talking bout he a gangster neither. Plus the bitches like Cudi(not sayin they don’t like Drake). that whole a kid named Cudi mixtape was the shit. I used to like drake but now he seems commercialized, It might be also that i’m a stoner, When you are high or drunk Cudi music put you right where you need to be. AUGUST 25 LIVE ON DECK

  118. montinique Says:

    Hmm..I really think that if we had to say whos going to take over at this moment…its Drake. But if you want to say who will last in the game the longest that might just be Cudi. They are both talented but Drake has more appeal in general where I see Cudi fading out somewhat in the future. Although I think that five years from now Cudi will still be in the background putting out music where Drake wouldve went in another direction to test new things.

  119. Gunzzz Says:

    Drake forsure. His lyrics are insane.
    Kid Cudi is ill too though. but i don’t think we should
    even categorize him as hip hip. his album
    is crazy but its somethin else. definitely some next shit.
