It's hard to actually figure out what you're thinking because you contradict yourself with every other reply.

First, you said the album lacked substance. Now, you're saying it does have substance but your problem is with his voice. Whenever somebody has challenged you on one of your observations, you contradict yourself or don't answer the question. You said it sounded like generic radio bullshit yet when Bombastic asked you to specifically say what other songs on the radio this album sounded like, you got didn't respond. Grow some balls.

Kendrick and Drake don't sound alike no matter how much you want them to.

Actually, "your" works in this case too. Also, if you have such a problem talking about rap with white people, you might want to get off a Roots message board.
