Drake ft. Lil Wayne - Ransom

Contributed by M. Burmy

Listen to More: Street, Mixtape, North of the Border, Collaborations

Today, Toronto rapper Kardinal Offishall will release his fourth studio album (and worldwide debut), Not 4 Sale.  With the LP already garnering positive reviews,  it seems as if this release could kick-start an industry takeover.  Proof of such a spark is evidenced by the interest of Lil’ Wayne‘s Young Money Entertainment in T-Dot actor Aubrey Graham, also known by the stage name of Drake.  On the lyrical clinic Ransom, Drake and Weezy trade bars over Boi-1da‘s 5 1/4-minute beat (so complex it could be split into two different tracks).  Incredibly, each rapper matches the other’s power, but you haven’t heard the alphabet until you’ve heard Weezy rap it near the end of his verse!  To hear just how global hip-hop has become, look and listen for the Toronto natives in the months to come.

J Worthy, I hope Wayne wrote this cuz if not, he got murdered by someone on his own label. Drakes flow is ridiculous and he outdid Weezy. Weezy was fly on it too, but Drake shines and its bangin!

They finally got this on the Booth. T.Dot!!!!!!!!! Y'all ain't been on Drake yet....WELL...it's time to get on! All Things Fresh. This guy finna take the game over. "Same yellow n*gga that used to play up on Degrassi"! Heard this a week ago and it's been in rotation heavily ever since. J. Worthy...you must be crazy. Drake ghostwrites for other rappers. Both of the rappers wrote their own lyrics. Drake did smash Lil Wayne. He's a beast. But Wayne's verse was hotter than a lot of stuff he's been spitting. BDF44, I agree. Drake smashed this, so Wayne had NO CHOICE but to come hard or go home! But this boy Drake is my favorite rapper in the world right now. He's about to takeover...forreally though. Boi 1da dat piff as well.

J Worthy: u owe Drake an apology for saying Weezy writes for him...nah, just kidding!

Ever since i heard 'Brand New' earlier this year and then 'I Can Take Your Girl' ive become a firm DRAKE fan. NO ONE, absolutely NO ONE in the history of music syncs into rap and singing as smoothly and effortlessly as he does...and he does both ridiculously well....DRAKE's the future of the 'Rappa ternt Sanga' genre!! btw, he killed wayne on this track....

Drakes definitely not bad but I liked Waynes verse better. Drakes lyrics might have been better but waynes flow just makes me pay attention and get into it for some reason. Regardless of who hit the beat harder, the song is crazy

This dude Drake is Nice! I really really like this beat! Production is nice and tight on here by Boi 1da! Drake has a good ass flow! He even spits like Weezy a lil on this one and it is welcomed! DRAKE IS SICK on here, man! The more I listen to it the more I see he has some serious skillz! I like how the beat changes with the high hats as Wanye comes on! Wayne Ripped this right here. I think Drake did a little better, but Damn, they both killed it! HOTNESS! CLASSIC @*#$!!

Drake is finally gettin big. I been listening to the dude for about 2 years, and he never disappoints. This mixtape "So Far Gone" gonna be amazing. Not a big Wayne fan, but i dont mind him on this track even thou his lyrics kinda wack. Drake kills it, and Wayne does it nice. Look out for more by Drake and go check out hsi apst stuff if you havent heard it before

This is CRAZY!!! Its amazing how Drake has progressed since the first mixtape "Room For Improvement" that i heard from him, to "Comeback Season" and now to the new one thats comin out, "So Far Gone"...He beat Wayne out on this one and Drake definitely wrote his own verse...He is a BEAST!! And if u people didnt see the VMA's tha otha night, Wayne spit a verse written by DRAKE over his misunderstood song..Tha verse that Wayne spit was from Drakes song called "Money To Blow"...if u dont believe me go to youtube and find waynes performance and then find Drakes song...

honestly, this is probably one of the worst wayne verses ive heard yet, it basically sounds like crap. drake was nice, but seriously, id like to see wayne maybe, MAYBE try to come with better lyrics and stop just spitting BS out. he repeated himself way too much, which only means that he cant think of anything else to say. many rappers better than wayne today.

I absolutely love Drake. Everything I have heard from him has been pretty hot. From his first mixtape to now. And you know he got it goin on when hes up with Wayne and really doin his own thing. Most ppl are done over by Wayne, but not Drake. He's tryna get his stuff together in the US, cuz hes already kinda big in TO, and this just may be the song to help him with that. But yeah, the beat is hot, as all Boi 1da's are.

Drake is a copy cat!! He cant even think of his own lyrics. The first line of this song came off of Jadakiss's song ALL FOR THE LOVE (at around the 2:08 mark). Is it a coincidence the first line of the song is the same as that. Hell no? He knew that was Jada's line and he straight copying him. I know phrases like "It aint trickin if you got it", many artists use but this first phrase he straight copied Jada. What u guys think
