During an interview earlier this week, Jim Jones declared Drake to be the best rapper of all time, and he has a convincing justification for his declaration.
Capo asserted that Drizzy is the only rapper more deserving of the moniker of G.O.A.T. during his interview with Complex. Jones claims that Drake’s fifteen-year career in hip-hop is unprecedented.
“I would say he’s the greatest of all time,” the Dipset member stated. “I would just give that to him. And I mean, there’s a lot of people from the beginning and people that invented Hip Hop, I know.
But the greatest of all time, it’s a big statement, and the relevancy that he keeps showing year after year, hit after hit, record after record. Any song that he has put out has seemed to go multiple platinum. That’s never happened before in history.”
He continued: “I mean, there are a few other people that do astronomical numbers like that, but he really in it, you know what I mean? From all angles of music. It ain’t no place you go where they’re not going to play some Drake records to get the party started. He moves around here like the real Bruce Wayne. He’s my spirit animal, man. I just got to give credit where credit is due, and not taking away from nobody else.”
Jim Jones then compared Drake to JAY-Z, noting that while the latter is one of the greatest rappers of all time, he is not currently as dominant on the Hip Hop landscape. Jim claims that Hov “left music a long time ago.”
“What [JAY-Z] has done to this game is astronomical, he’s like Michael Jordan for what he has put on and what he has done since he came in the game and where he’s at right now,” Jim added. “But Jay exited music a long time ago. And that space, that void, I don’t know if it’s a void, but Drake has not exited, and he’s still going strong to this day, and it doesn’t seem like he’s stopping no time soon.”
He added: “But in this day, us highlighting our era really don’t hold no merit in what’s functioning right now… So, we tend to forget a lot of that shit from back in those days.”
