Nothing on IceBuddy comes close Lyrically to this

Jay-Z lyrics hit on a different level. Way ahead of his time.

Here's the problem: Drake fans typically don't believe in having any type of pride in growing up or living in places like that. Those bars do not hit the same to them. Hip-hop is just rap to them.

Love this record but Make Them Remember is WAY BETTER than this lyrically. Ain’t one bar on here better than the double play bar or the Windsor knot bar. This ain’t better than Make Them Pay either.

That Windsor knot bar has been used plenty times before and better btw also not saying that song is even bad I think it’s one of the better songs on iceman but it’s the same monotone flow and victim and gaslighting bars.

A lot of punchlines get recycled and used in different ways. It still hit. So we flow shaming now? HOV uses the same flow ALOT when he’s rapping! I disagree with the victim shit. Drake has always rapped in these styles & angles but it’s only victim raps now cause it’s trendy.

I’m talking about this song specifically against the album

The flow is fine in the song. When Drake uses this flow he’s at his best. Also what bar on Where I’m From is better than that 23 & me bar? It’s several schemes & punchlines all the way through MTR. Where I’m From just can’t compete bruh.

@TheRocSupremacy Y’all need to stop entertaining these things. Few days back it was Nas they were trying to disrespect, now it’s Jay-Z

@TheRocSupremacy He never made a song as hard as this, either.

You know every Drake fan gone be on some recency bias shite. Has never been, nor will ever be on Jay’s level lyrically

The fact that this song is still referenced after so many years is insane. I dont see these “new” rappers doing that with Drake’s music. 🤷♂️

What did I just read 😭😭

😭

I'm not even a big Jay fan like that but just a creative you can hear Jay and pick up on a level of introspection that Drake just does not have

@JonD_Great Icecuck trash asl🗑️

Nostalgia kicking y’all ass. Surface level bars, great wordplay. Make them remember still got it beat.

“Surface level bars”

Quote a super layered bar. Not no shit like “when the throw vans come we throw the shit and run “

If youre gonna bring Jay bars you need records like lyrical exercise , Ignorant shit, dead presidents. Not where I’m from, where I’m from is a pretty straighter forward record. It’s a banger but it’s not sike bar heavy track. Damn sure ain’t as heavy as Make em remember.

@Drip___Baeless “Come and get me” I think is one of his most underrated songs. Along with “People’s court”

@TheRocSupremacy Those who feel that Drake is a better rapper than Jay-Z are those that wouldn't be able to read Jay's lyrics on paper like them folks that cannot read them index cards lol

Why would you set Jay Z up like this. Make Them Pay wipes this down

Jay was rhyming one syllable on most these lines💀 You could’ve picked a far better verse than this🤦🏽♂️

lol it’s okay honestly. Yall confuse nolstagia with GREAT verses.

I just took a loud watery shit that sounded better than anything drake ever spit.

@ThisIsJay216 @Drake CAN NEVER RAP LIKE THIS NIGGA.

Jay hasn’t had an album in years and Drake is still no where near him

😂😂 this man gave his own mother crack cocaine

Icebuddy is hilarious 😂😂😂

Jimmy Brooks fans don’t even know what Jay talking about.

Drake is a Jay Z grandson as Wayne is a Jay Z son

Subjective opinion is what you just did. All die hard fans will cry that his/her rapper is better. Ice buddy album is horrible and fixated on gaslighting, revenge talk, pretty much sassy. Nice lyrics though

Jayz is a ghostwriter. Drake has a ghostwriter. Argument over.

When you say “ lyrically” what do you mean? What’s the definition of that word to you?

bout time yall started posting about a Worth Competitor i got tired of watching yall pretend Kendrick could box with Gods

Drake would murder this beat

Make them cry is way better than this and jay not saying nothing lyric in this shit 😂😂😂

So glad no one agrees with you, been awesome to see ur down fall this week. Iceman going number one in two days 😂🤣😂

You could’ve picked something mores technically impressive ngl

Like what’s he talkin bout😭😭
