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.”

Jakez you're an idiot, kill your self. And Gangsta Rap is relevant to gangsta and street guys. If you haven't lived in the gutta then you don't understand it. I don't like these guys music because I can't relate to their bs raps.

NO DISRESPECT, I GIVE IT UP FOR THEM ON WHAT THEY'VE ACCOMPLISHED BUT COULDN'T THEY'VE DONE A BACKSTREET BOYZ OR N'SYNC TYPE DEAL... REALLY? IF YOU GROW UP ANYWHERE IN THE EARLY 90'S TO LATE 90'S, HIP HOP/RAP WAS ALL BASED ON THE STREETS. IT WAS FROM THE STREETS FOR AMERICA TO SEE... IT GOT THE KIDS OUT THE HOODS AND LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM. THIS UP AN COMERS LIKE DRAKE WERE ALREADY LIVING LAVAGE BEFORE RECORD DEALS AND IT WASN'T FROM MUSIC OR ACTING, MOMMA AND POPPA HAD IT GOOD.... I DIG THEY'RE MUSIC BUT I CANT SEE MYSELF BUYING OR DOWNLOADING THEY'RE SH*T. I'D BOOTLEG THE S*** AND BUY THE RAPPER THAT HAD IT HARD COMING UP...
