I thought everybody knew The Motto is Drake's one good song because you can just pretend he's some Thizz 3rd-sringer/HBK affiliate?

Started From The Bottom sux because he sounds like Drake and, as everybody should know by now, it's impossible for Canadians to make rap music (or any kind of music, in fact) that diplays id, sounds cocky, or is remotely sexual.

he's not overdramatizing his life & the video reinforces that. the lyrics are about being a middle to lower middle class high school dropout from a single parent home & becoming a millionaire strictly through hardwork, talent & dedication. the reason you think the raps are wack is b/c he may or may not have worked a minimum wage job at a drug store in canada pre-recession ? :rofl:
My bad dude. You are right. Middle class is the bottom. I clearly don't understand the struggle. Carry on, Drake. Carry on, Garth. Drake's World. Drake's World.

Song should be called "started from the middle".

Also, I don't think he's wack either. If anything, my feelings towards him are indifference to dislike. Also, from interviews and random shizz, he seems like a stand up guy and pretty chill. I just don't care for his music really. Sue me for not liking the music of your national hero.

that's what i'm hoping and wondering too. probably will have Lil Wayne on it, he's an opportunist (remember when Weezy put that weak ass verse on 'Miss Me' for Drake's album, then when the album fucking blew the fuck up, he jumped on that 'Light Up' remix with Jay-Z and dropped a WAAAY better verse from the jailhouse? He didn't do any other jailhouse verses, did he? :killacam: )

did anyone see that article about how Drake supposedly did not start from the bottom? just recently came out

i ain't mad at the homie at all, but i still wanted to read that piece

I can't hate on the song, with all the love he's shown for TO here. Great video. Hook was a bit overbearing in spots, but I'll overlook that.

There have been talks of an official remix to Drake's "Started From the Bottom" in the works. What's been going around on the Internet is that the song will feature Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Wiz Khalifa and Riff Raff. The latest addition is Kanye West, which will pretty much solidify the epic line up.
There hasn't been word on if any of this is true or not. But, this "Started From the Bottom (Remix)" could very well triumph all the other ones.

"some nobodies started feelin themself" - Future about 'Tony Montana', maybe others too
"a couple somebodies started killin themself" - Kanye supposedly throwing wild shots @ Drake on 'Otis', Common embarrassing himself trying to punk Drake, Chris Brown
"a couple albums dropped, but they still on the shelf/
I bet them shits woulda popped if I was willing to help" - :copy: Big Sean and his 'Finally Famous' lp, putting the nail in the coffin Drake started closing with 'I'm On One'

Rap is fun to listen to

There WAS beef when Future wanted Drake for the 'Tony Montana' video and Drizzy sent a tweet that was something like "give n!ggas a steak and they want you to cook it for them too" or something to that effect. Plus that other Drake verse seems like it was recorded long ago or around the first verse, like Future got Drake when he was "cheaper", LOL.

That being said, I heard another interpretation that's even more interesting and possibly true.
Some people keep saying Drake and the Weeknd had a falling out cause the Weeknd didn't sign to Octobers Very Own. And say that the "fuck a fake friend/ where your real friends at" of 'Started from the Bottom' and the two lines before "some nobodies started feelin themself" was also directed at the Weeknd, cause the three lines before it are revealing: "got us watching our words like theres wiretaps on the team/ cause I show love, never get the same outta n!ggas/ I guess it's funny how money could make change outta n!ggas..." :killacam:

It could apply to the Weeknd who hasn't made music with Drake in a minute...

That's the thing about subliminals, they're like adjustable shoes that could fit on many motherfuckers sometimes :ironmike:

:nut: watch out now, slavemassa

We don't need no Willie Lynchism round these parts

Drake is one of the greatest for sure, and think he could out-rap and outsell Jay-Z this year if he doesn't sing so much

But... Ice-T and Ice Cube laid the light skinned foundation all rappers dance on now :rofl:
