So there weren’t varied sub genres before or inclusion of global sounds before?

We literally just discussed this. G-Funk. Boom Bap. Down South. Hardcore. Horrorcore. Funk-inspired. Reggae-inspired. Jazz Rap. Rock-Rap. All this shit has been around since day 1 bro.

Honestly, the fuck are you talking about?

So because Drake is popular and brings the most basic dumbed down accessible version of what you’re calling “varied genres” and “global sounds” that means he’s the first to do it?

Reggae and Dancehall influence wasn’t in hip-hop until Drake huh?

This is what I mean when y’all give misguided praise in relation to “influence”.

You know you sound dumb as fuck right now right?
