    You tweaking bruh

    You letting the internet interfere with your judgment of actual raps

    You may not be a fan for whatever reason a lot of KTT users are on that, but nigga hell naw Future can’t rap anywhere near Cole’s level are you high

    Internet not interfering lol only have ktt

    I just think future just fills out more big 3 qualifications in that era. From monster to 56 nights to beast mode to ds2 to HNDRXX to the WIZRD it’s just hard to deny plus on every hit for a decade.

    Kendrick and Drake still dominated that era

    And futures best era was 2014-2017

    Yes things got weird in the mid 2010s due to melodic rap taking off while Kendrick Cole and Drake were still dominating. Doesn't make sense to directly compare them

  • Notice Jay had his hand in all 3

  • Hov, the rest don't matter

    Ye, Wayne, Ti

    Drake, Kendrick, noticeable gap then Cole

  • Corporate Mór

    Notice Jay had his hand in all 3

  • You could divide the 2000s in like 3 eras because it just doesn't feel right if 50 isn't in there

    2000-2003: Em, 50, Jay
    2004-2006 50, Kanye, Jeezy
    2007-2009: Wayne, Kanye, TI

    Huh?

    Future came up at the exact same time as Drake, Kendrick, and Cole, give or take a year or two

  • In an ideal world, Future would be recognized as the third member of the 2010s Big 3, but (white) people's aversion to trap as a subgenre, Southern accents in rap, and disdain for black hip-hop music without a social message is why he's not a part of that conversation

    I'm still confused though because Future is still very much a part of the Kendrick/Drake/Cole class more than he's a part of the Thug/Travis class

    Future was on the 2012 XXL Freshman lineup, one year after Kendrick was on it

    Pluto dropped before GKMC and had big songs on it in Turn On The Lights and Tony Montana. (Tony even dropped in 2011 and Drake hopped on the remix that same year)

    I will never respect a big three with TI in it lol

    too young to comment but no where have I really seen it depicted as Nas Em Jay being super hot at the same time

  • Future was on the cover of The FADER in 2011 back when that was still a big deal, how is he not a part of the Kendrick/Drake/Cole class?
