Uh dumbass drake and lil Wayne are in completely different categories! Drakes a singer who can also spit a lil! Wayne's a rapper and not a very good one!Different fan base! Whereas 50 and banks nearly sound the same there for a while and both gangsta rap, same sorta beats! #SK

The comparison don't really work because Drake was a well known child actor who had built his own fanbase of women, children and suspect men well b4 actually signing to YMCMB.
Their was no label speculation as to where Banks would sign,, he just dropped some Hot97 freestyles wit the rest of the crew and created a buzz in a time where niccas wanted to hear rappers actually rap and not just sing, whine, and make a club record.
50 set Banks up lovely,, made sure to drop an album of his immediately when he could've been focused on just himself. Banks went on to have big singles and a double platinum album.
YMCMB in 2012 is what G-Unit was back in '05,,, a rap crew that had been at the top for close to 2 years and had begun expanding to the point where they were taking on a lot of dead weight.
We know how that worked, or didn't, for the Unit,, so we know what to expect in the coming 1-2 years for YM.
