Nicki Minaj ( Thank Me Later, 2010)Дrake may have been putting on for his teвЂ‹вЂ‹am on Thank Me LaterвЂ™s вЂњUp All Night,вЂќ but his Young Money labelmate snatched the mic with her monumental guest verse. If his point wasnвЂ™t made clear enough, DJ Khaled swoops in on the outro: вЂњThey donвЂ™t want us to have a bigger pool than Kanye!вЂќ 43. The song really revs up in the second half, with a sinister beat anchoring his brags of - what else? - having the biggest pool of any rapper. вЂњSummer SixteenвЂќ (non-album single, 2016)Дrake had a chokehold on the year 2016, and the takeover began with вЂњSummer Sixteen.вЂќ Released that January, Drake (a decorated diss artist at that point) aimed his shots at the heads of Meek Mill and Tory Lanez. What A Time to Be Alive is mainly in FutureвЂ™s wheelhouse - recorded in Atlanta, executively produced by right-hand Metro Boomin, and is mostly about the cityвЂ™s grungy hustle - but Drake holds his own as the two join forces like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen to create a club-ready banger.Д¤4. ThereвЂ™s plenty of standouts on Drake and FutureвЂ™s What A Time To Be Alive joint mixtape, from the formerвЂ™s shameless outro on вЂњDiamonds DancingвЂќ to Future facing his demons on вЂњScholarships.вЂќ But вЂњJumpmanвЂќ was a special one, as Future helped ignite his friendвЂ™s inner trap king. вЂњJumpmanвЂќ with Future ( What A Time to Be Alive, 2015) The video makes this even more of a banger, with Drake throwing the dopest bar mitzvah ever. Executing a rare double-time flow, both he and Lil Wayne drop catchy bars (вЂњI learned Hennessy and enemies is one hell of a mixtureвЂќ) before leaning into a sarcasm-dripping chorus over a synthwave guitar. On вЂњHYFR,вЂќ Drake only focuses on his ex-girlfriends just for a moment before finally giving himself the freedom to have fun.

This is Drake at his hungriest and we havenвЂ™t heard him like this since. Weezy ultimately takes the lead here, but he gives his mentee the spotlight to show off his talents. Lil Wayne often brings out the best in Drake, and the potential that he initially saw in the post- Degrassi star is highlighted all throughout вЂњRansom.вЂќ Forget a catchy hook, this song is about straight bars. The one thing holding this back is the overt вЂњhashtag rapвЂќ that will keep it stuck in the вЂ10s era. After years of building his name with mixtapes and being part of the Young Money crew, Drake showed he had something to prove with вЂњOver.вЂќ The Grammy-nominated lead single of his debut album Thank Me Later showed it was evident the road to superstardom would become crowded as hell: вЂњI know way too many people here right now that I didnвЂ™t know last year / Who the f**k are yвЂ™all?вЂќ Atop a boisterous beat via and Boi-1da and Al Khaaliq, Drake affirms that he has his eyes set on taking over the game.
