Freestyle Friday: Drake vs. Kanye vs. Wayne vs. Eminem

by Kevin on August 28, 2009

email

Drake, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem recently collaborated on a track which leaked the other day called “Forever.” In honor of the song, I thought it’d be fun to put all four emcees up against one another for today’s Freestyle Friday!

We’ve been doing this feature for a couple of weeks now, but if you don’t remember how it goes, hit the jump for a few rules and then jump in on the comments!

The idea of Freestyle Friday is to battle one another with your favorite verse from either of the two competitors (or in the case this week, four). You’re essentially battling other commenters in this thread by using the words of Drake, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, or Eminem.

Before we start, let’s see if we can keep the thread in order by following a couple simple rules:

1. Please don’t drop the lyrics to a whole song. No more than 16 bar verses!

2. Please stay in some kind of order…. Kanye, then someone else, then someone else, etc. Don’t post a bunch of Eminem verses back to back. The idea is to go back and forth. It’s possible that more than one person may be trying to drop a verse at one time… we’ll just keep moving on.

I’ll start this thread off with a verse from Kanye:

“Ay yo I’m sittin on top of the-
It’s more than a feeling ain’t it?
I be killin dame it, I’m illin and I’m illin’ -
Eh eh eh meet Mr. Popular
Go get your binoculars
And see Penthouse 3 where a n***a be
Spittin fire on the PJ in my PJ’s
Fire Marshall said I took it to the Max like TJ
Yea people I said Marshalls we play
I guess I’m like the Black Marshall meets Jay”

-Kanye West, “Kinda Like A Big Deal”

    ” Noooowww
    This song is dedicated to the one wit the suit
    Thick white skin and his eyes bright blue
    So called beef wit you know who
    Fuck it he just let him kill all of our troops
    Look at the bullshit we been through
    Had the niggas sittin on top they roofs
    Hurricane Katrina, we shoulda called it Hurricane (Geeoorrggiaa) Bush
    Then they tellin y’all lies on the news
    The white people smiling like everythin cool
    But I know people that died in that pool
    I know people that died in them schools
    Now what is the survivor to do?
    Got to no trailer, you gotta move
    Now it’s on to Texas and to (Geeoorrggiiaa)
    They tell you what they want, show you what they want you to see
    But they don’t let you know what’s really goin on
    Make it look like a lotta stealin goin on
    Boy them cops is killas in my home
    Nigga shot dead in the middle of the street
    I ain’t no thief, I’m just tryin to eat
    Man fuck the police and president (Geeoorrrggiiaa) Bush
    So what happened to the leverage, why wasn’t they steady
    Why wasn’t they able to control this?
    I know some fok’ that live by the lever
    that keep on tellin me they heard this, stole this
    Same shit happened back in Hurricane Betsy
    1965, I ain’t too young to know this
    That was President Johnson now
    but it’s president (Geeoorrggiiaa) Bush ”

    “I’m cancerous, so when I diss you wouldnt wanna answer this
    If you responded back with a battle rap you wrote for Canibus
    I strangled you to death then I’ll choke you again
    Then break your fuckin legs till your bones poke through your skin
    You beef wit me, I’ma even the score equally
    Take you on jerry springer, and beat yer ass legally
    I get you blunted off of funny home grown
    Cause when I smoke out I hit the trees harder than Sonny Bono
    (Ohh no!) So if I said I never did drugs
    That would mean I lie AND get fucked more than the President does
    Hillary Clinton tried to slap me and call me a pervert
    I ripped her fuckin tonsils out and fed her sherbet (bitch)
    My nerves hurt, and lately I’m on edge
    Grabbed Vanilla Ice and ripped out his blond dreads (Fuck you!)
    Every girl I ever went out wit is gone lez
    Follow me and do exactly what the song says:
    smoke weed, take pills, drop outta school, kill people and drink
    And jump behind the wheel like it was still legal
    I’m dumb enough to walk in a store and steal
    So I’m dumb enough to ask for a date with Lauryn Hill
    Some people only see that I’m white, ignorin skill
    Cause I stand out like a green hat with a orange bill
    But I don’t get pissed, y’all don’t even see through the mist
    How the fuck can I be white, I don’t even exist
    I get a clean shave, bathe, go to a rave
    Die from an overdose and dig myself up out of my grave
    My middle finger won’t go down, how do I wave?
    And this is how I’m supposed to teach kids how to behave?”

    Let the champagne splash, let that man get cash,
    Let that man get past.
    You don’t needa stop to get gas,
    If he can move through the rumors, he can drive off the fumes cuzz
    How he move in a room full of nose?
    How he stay faithful in a room full of h**s?
    Must be the pharaohs, he in tune with his soul,
    So when he buried in a tomb full of gold.
    Treasure. What’s you pleasure?
    Life is a, uh, depending how you dress her.
    So if the devil wear Prada,
    Adam Eve wear Nada,
    I’m in between, but way more fresher.
    But way less effort, cause when you try hard,
    That’s when you die hard.
    Ya homies looking like “Why God?”
    When they reminisce over you, my god.

    I used to like lil wayne and this was one of my favorite verses from him.

    Weezy bad
    Na really I’m good
    Sound like a T-Rex live under my hood
    betta know the tech live under my seat
    put ya in tha ground
    now you live under my feet
    all white diamonds on the front of my teeth
    and you better put O in front of my G
    the bullshit they talkin doesn’t come to my knee
    Im like a linebacker don’t run it by me
    my two best friends will accompany me
    and right now they are in my dungarees sleep
    one name Mack one name Nina
    they hit ya make ya do the Macarenna
    where ya tool
    you gonna need it like a motherfucker

    I sit back with this pack of zig zags and this bag
    Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
    The most meanest mc on this — on this earth
    And since birth Ive been cursed with this curse to just curse
    And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
    And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
    All this tension dispensin these sentences
    Gettin this stress thats been eatin me recently off of this chest
    And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)..
    But at least have the decency in you
    To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
    In the streets when Im eatin or feedin my daughter
    To not come and speak to me (speak to me)..
    I dont know you and no,
    I dont owe you a mo-therfuck-in thing
    Im not mr. nsync, Im not what your friends think
    Im not mr. friendly, I can be a prick
    If you tempt me my tank is on empty (is on empty)..
    No patience is in me and if you offend me
    Im liftin you 10 feet (liftin you 10 feet).. in the air
    I dont care who is there and who saw me destroy you
    Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
    Ill smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
    Im tired of all you (of all you)..
    I dont mean to be mean but thats all I can be is just me

    To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers even us cripples
    (Jesus walks with them)
    To the victims of Welfare for we living in hell here hell yeah
    (Jesus walks with them)
    Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly
    I know he hear me when my feet get weary
    Cause we’re the almost nearly extinct
    We rappers are role models we rap we don’t think
    I ain’t here to argue about his facial features, But here to convert atheists into believers
    I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers
    The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way I need Jesus
    So here go my single dog radio needs this
    They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
    That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
    But if I talk about God my record won’t get played Huh?
    Well let this take away from my spins
    Which will probably take away from my ends
    Then I hope this take away from my sins
    And bring the day that I’m dreaming about
    Next time I’m in the club everybody screaming out

    Fuck hell, Satan sent my ass to the sun
    I wasn’t born I was hatched
    And dumped in the trash
    With a note attached saying
    Someone please whip this brat’s ass
    I never gave a rat’s ass or a flying fuck
    Driving drunk in a fire truck with the siren stuck
    Slammin the brakes
    Skiddin out cuz the tires suck
    I went to pull you off my dick
    And got the pliers stuck
    You better run cuz I’m probably the only one
    Crazy enough to shoot your ass with a knife
    And stab you with a gun
    I like fire, you might see me start it

    Since I’m in a position

    And they listen
    I ain’t no politician
    But I’ll kick it
    With ‘em a minute
    ‘Cause see they
    Call me a menace
    And if the shoe fits
    I’ll wear it
    But if it don’t
    Then y’all will
    Swallow the truth
    Grin and bear it
    Now who’s these
    King of these rude
    Ludicrous lucrative lyrics
    Who could inherit the title
    Put the youth in hysterics
    Usin’ his music to steer it
    Sharin’ his views
    And his merits
    But there’s
    A huge interference
    They’re sayin’
    You shouldn’t hear it
    Maybe it’s hatred I spew
    Maybe it’s food
    For the spirit
    Maybe it’s beautiful music
    I made for you
    To just cherish
    But I’m debated disputed hated
    And viewed in America
    As a motherf***in’ drug addict
    Like you didn’t experiment?
    Now now, that’s when
    You start to stare at
    Who’s in the mirror
    And see yourself
    As a kid again
    And you get embarrased
    And I got nothin’ to do
    But make you look

    Ah-head of my time, sometimes years out
    So the powers that be won’t let me get my ideas out

    And move to Oklahoma and just live at my Aunt’s house
    Yeah, I romance the thought of leavin it all behind
    Kanye step away from the lime-

    In the “One, Nine, Nine, Nine”

    Dealerships asked me Benz or Rover, man

    We could get up off this cheap-ass sofa

    Sometimes I can’t believe it when I look up in the mirrow
    How we out in Europe, spendin Euros

    I know I got it, I don’t know what y’all on

    Won’t sell ‘em no dream, but the inspiration is free
    But if they ever flip sides like Anakin
    You’ll sell everything includin the mannequin

    Hold on I’ll handle it, don’t start panickin, stay calm

    He’s able to spill raps long after his killed, that’s a real MC

    You still agree, as long as there’s still this hunger and will in me

    Spent a hundred thousand on mine to feel different
    What’s the real sense of it?
    Bling bling, I know
    And did you know I’m the creator of the term
    I just straightened the perm
    Aint let it sit too long, they just makin it burn
    And make a movie of our lifestyle
    But they earn like a dead body burned on a mantlepiece
    That’s why I try not to lie on wax like this candle grease
    And I be’s the little nigga
    Cooler than anti-freeze defrost on your window pane – Lil Wayne
    But in Hollywood it’s Litt-le Wayne
    Don’t make me nut
    So that’s why I got a pre-nup
    I do

    Outkast- Hollywood Divorce (feat. Lil Wayne & Snoop Dogg)

    In my mind I’ma fighter, my heart’s a lighter
    My soul is the fluid, my flow sparks it right up
    Arsenic writer, author with arthritis
    Carpel tunnel, Marshall will start shit-itis
    Hard headed and hot headed, bull headed and pig headed,
    Dick headed, a prick, a big headache I’m sick
    Quick witted, for every lyric spitted there are 6 critics
    Who wait for me to slip with it, so quick
    This dynamite stick buried the wick, it’s gonna explode any minute
    Some lunatic lit it and it’s not Nelly
    Do not tell me to stop yelling, when I stop selling I quit
    So stop dwelling an I am not felling
    You fuckers are not ready, cause I got jelly, like (Beyonce’s) pot belly
    This is Destiny, yes money I’m of running
    So get off of me, I’m not slowing or softening
