Putting out 3 fire mixtapes is deserving of a record deal and fame...keep in mind two of those were way before he met Lil Wayne
Plus who cares about street cred? Thats for ignorant fan boys to discuss. Theres many different kinds of grinds. Being street isn't the only path.
Well, what I mean by street cred is he never had hard times. I know you don't really have to go through bad times to be a great rapper, but I like knowing that my favorite rappers that I listen to came from the bottom to get to where they're at. It makes me respect them a lot more. I respect that Hopsin can make great music, even though he hasn't blown up
As I've stated many times, Drake is alright to me. I can stand him, maybe even more so than C3 Wayne. But he's not really a great lyricist, he is extremely overrated. He gets a lot of unnecessary hate, though
