Yeah Drake's an emotional guy and his deep emotional connections with his emotional side provides him with some incredible Yolo-like sing-rap possibilities that could only be fully utilized with some female singing in the background.I swear I just heard the new drake/aaliyah song on the radio recently
So he chose Aaliyah, because she was a good singer and Drake's fine precision emotions understand her pain and the publicity he'll get after digging up songs of a woman that's been gone for 10 years.
Now let me moan in front of the mic and make sure you put some discreet autotune on it to further emphasize my deep emotions towards strippers and Houston.

Why do people keep saying Phonte? I think y'all are missing the keyword here, "successful".

you are confusing "successful" with "mainstream". Don't get it twisted, Little Brother def has/had a fan base. Had that ish with 9th and Phonte NOT happened they prolly woulda got a little bigger. That really cut their potential short. Foreign Exchange is a grammy nominated group (yea they didn't win, but they must have been doing SOMETHING right to get noticed) .....they get that international tour date bread. What is you talking 'bout homie?
Cee-lo rapped /sang well with a group.... dang near revolutionized "southern rap".... then he did by himself.... Then he was like "eff it.... I'm done rapping, lemme SANG on these fools" Made ANOTHER group.... St. Elsewhere and Odd Couple are two of the hottest albums of the 00's. DID YOU NOT FORGET 'CRAZY' WAS LIKE SONG OF THE YEAR IN '09-'10!?
Song was everywhere!!! Tell me something... is Prince going around making remakes of 'Thank Me Later'? OOOOOOOH, cuz he sang 'Crazy' live at a concert. Prince. I ain't 'eem gon' mention 'F*** You'
Sometimes I feel bad that I'm apart of the musical generation , man

Drake is wrong. It's that simple.
But, he probably DOES alternate between the two more "successfully" than any other artist we've seen. He's accepted for both of a very mainstream level. And he can go back and forth (no pun) better than any other artist. No one is allowed to do both as freely and smoothly as Drake. Most of these people you guys are naming have to almost completely stop one to do the other...successfully.
But, Drake's statement is wrong. (I didn't read the article, admittedly)

People who try and preach their opinion like it is biblical law are amusing. If you disagree say so and keep it moving. Quit trying to get disciples and followers.

I mess with Drake's music and all, but this statement right here is false bra bra.
I hope YMCMB ain't got him on that white stuff yet

I feel you. Just state your opinion and bounce. People beating their opinion over peoples heads repeatedly until they agree.
Reminds me of this Family Guy episode.

Are dudes really in here naming Ja and 50? You'd buy a album of Ja singing? Word. He certainly isn't the first, but very few have done it though. For him to be first anything is kinda crazy though when Phonte fathered his style, and he's pretty open about it.
