Drake, Kid Cudi And Wale Are ''The Gangsta Killers'' In Upcoming GQ Magazine 'Man Of The Year' Edition
''Have you been listening to hip-hop this year? If not, we’ve got good news: The gangster persona is finally dead, and these are the kids who killed it. One song at a time, they built a new era in which duct-taped kilos, exotic firearms, and freaky girls are out and real life is the focus.
That can still mean trumped-up egos and battle raps, but it also means family, drama, vicious hangovers, and regular chicks who will make good love to you, then stomp out your heart. (Weed? Weed is always in.) Wale is as famous for his live shows as for the slick-witted lyricism of his debut, Attention Deficit.
Kid Cudi is the cutup who scored with the stoner anthem “Day N Nite” and his album Man on the Moon. And then there’s Drake, who found himself turning down multimillion-dollar offers after his single “Best I Ever Had” exploded. (It helps that the girls like Drake. A lot.) Drake’s debut, Thank Me Later is easily the most anticipated album of 2010 So what do these underdogs thing about being cast as gangster slayers?
“The dope boy is going to be a fixture of black culture as long as “thug” is a legitimate option alongside a job” Drake says. But I’m not going to rap about how much crack I’ve sold.” Cudi also laughs at the idea of talking tough. “Anybody from cleveland will tell you I wasn’t in the streets” he says. “Ask them! They’ll say, ‘Scott was the goofy class clown.”

Comment by G.regular on November 16, 2009 at 8:30pm - And I agree on Cudi being the best of the 3, Man on the Moon has not come out of my car's deck since it came out. The dude just spits right from the heart.

- Actually Josh I've been following Kid Cudi since he put out Day N Nite about 2 and a half years ago, which led me to listen to Wale. And as for Drake, I live near Toronto and have been watching him even longer. The lyrical line was sarcasm lol.

Co-sign with Asad
It least there will be some sort of realism instead of this gangsta facade. Can niggas finally evolve? You know paint a lyrical picture not from a gangstas prosective, i've been hearing the same song thing since I was 4 and that was 20 years ago.

wale's good, drake makes hit songs
but kudi is the best BY FAR. Serously, just listen to his album, its the best of 09.
also to the dude below talking about lyrics, he's obviously only ever listened to drake out of all 3.

- THIS COMES TO SHOW HOW RETARTED THE WORLD IS BECOMING. AND PLEASE DONT EVER INCLUDE SLAUGHTERHOUSE IN THE SAME AURA AS THESE FAGGOTS. HIP HOP HAS DUMBED IT DOWN SO THESE NON LYRICAL BITCHES CAN RAP AND MAKE OTHER MEN GAY AND DUMB AND LISTEN TO SIMPLE LYRICS. SLAUGHTERHOUSE, G UNIT , RE-UP GANG AND ANY OTHER LYRICAL BEAST IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST BEFORE ANY OF THESE 3 WOMEN
