Degrassi Star, I'm Over You

If you are a Drake fan, this blog might not be your favorite. - Management

I like Drake. He can rap his ass off. If you remember, I was a staunch supporter of his when his Grammy performance was censored to the hilt. With that being said, I'm kind of over Drake. I mean, seriously, he has a great deal of mixtapes that are better than a lot of the rap albums of recent memory. I just feel too much is being put on his shoulders and he's becoming part of the hype machine.

Need an example of his hype? His song, 'Over' is played on the radio every thirty seconds and its not that good of a song. Don't get me wrong, the verses are good. But he loses points for the "About to set this bitch off/ Jada Pinkett" line. Its amateur at best. He loses mostly because of the hook. He sounds like the retarded muppet on Crank Yankers. He has a good singing voice, just check out the background vocals on Alicia Keys' 'Unthinkable'.

Lastly, why is everyone quoting, "What am I doing? Oh yeah, that's right. I'm doing me."? He is not the first to say that. He isn't saying anything profound. That's an average line just as the "Jada Pinkett" one is. But everyone seems to think he is the first to say it. Ladies and gentlemen, I have one thing to say, hop off the man's dick. You're riding a tad too hard.
