Drake had a pocketful of remarkable verses in 2012. But the one he delivered on Rick Ross’ Rich Forever reigns supreme. With a chip on his shoulder the size of the Grand Canyon, Drake put the emo rap to the back burner and delivered a “sweet” response to Common’s diss. Over The Beat Bully’s mellow drums and synths, Mr. OVO came out swinging: “It bothers me when the Gods get to acting like the broads”. No one was safe. Not even Kobe Bryant’s wife Vanessa. (“Kobe about to lose a hundred fifty M’s/Kobe my nigga, I hate it had to be him/Bitch you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym!”) Good ain’t good enough, but you’d be hard-pressed not to give Drake his props.

Fuck Harvey Levin and anybody that loves his celebrity news website. First you prematurely pronounce the impending death of Lil Wayne (Weezy Forgives. We Don't.) and then you try to link the horrific actions of one of the Boston Marathon culprits to our culture? "DEAD BOMBING SUSPECT: HEAVY INTO HIP HOP" You don't say? It's 2013 and most kids are into rap music. We've been penetrated pop culture, you cock suckers. "What's interesting... hip-hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women." So our music is at fault in this tragedy? Let's be clear the only bombs my culture cosigns is DJ Funkmaster Flex's sound effects. Thirty Mile Zone is prone to post anything to get traffic. Fuck dude and his coffee cup. Get you a Rap Radar cup and drink with us in the winner's circle.
Yo Mister Cee, the people feel threatened! Soliciting prostitutes is illegal and this is the second time your private affairs have been publicized. Get some help...and a room! —B.Dot
got it right
Drake >>>>>>>>>
mad sights dick ride this verse…but not ONE Kendrick verse??? how can you do that, seriously?? theres so many good ones!! “Blessed” “Push Thru” “100″ !!!!! Rap Radar what are you doing!?
The only excuse you could possibly have is that there are too many too choose from, oh godddd
oh my god… i take everything i said on the Big Sean comment thread… place it here.
youre an idiot. you have no idea what you are talking about.
“I’m Elliot Wilson and This isn’t the truth”
Take Care was amazing and this verse was also amazing
Common still bodied him though.
ross is a pussy he knew he got outshined so he didnt put this on his album…. he didnt give drizzy a verse on diced pineapples either….. he must be embarrassed about what happened when drizzy had best verse on aston martin music
drake murdered that verse. regardless of what u think of him as a man, he murked that.
if u cant see that then u just dont like drake that much.
best verse of the year is correct on this one.
niggas be acting like drake dont spit, your in denial, he is soft, but the boy spits
Say what you want about Drake, but this verse was incredible.
Definitely agree.
hundo percent
Wow. Just wow. Really RR? This is better than both Andre verses, any of Kendrick’s verses, Ghostface’s verse, even more memorable than 2 Chainz verse on “Mercy”?
It was a good verse, don’t get me wrong, but WOW the best guest verse of the year?? That’s insanity. That is completely crazy.
^ yeah hes embarrassed.. thats exactly why he still pays for hooks features and appearances…Pause
Are the people on here actual hip hop fans or are yall just some in the closet justin beber fans I really dont get it.
Side note…… Dope feature, u can hate on drake for being soft or w.e u wanna claim he is but when it comes to this rappin shyt he holds his own, thats jusst the truth cant deny it even tho ya soul is burning to hate on him… haha pretty good top not BAD!
top 3 guest verse spots are on MMG songs… i might have to hear out mac diesel
Triplle beams dreams by Nas shit all over this Drizzy verse. Not surprised by YN’s choice though, he only rides with rappers that allow him to ride their dicks.
@ beaming ……………..truth!!!!!!!!!
Omg TRIPLE BEAM DREAMS DOE THAT SHIT IS FLAME
“Bitch you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym!!”\l
That verse was Dope.. How the fuck do you pay homage and diss a legend in the same verse lol
This verse is dope as fuck, but no love for Jay Rock’s “Money Trees” verse?? I thought that verse was amazing and it should’ve been on the list!!
best verse of the year hands down
Drake in 2012>>>>>>>>everybody else (except kendrick)
Even tho drake looks retarded he can spit! Lol
Wayne found him a solid rapper can’t hate. Still think andre 3k sorry verse should be #1
Andre 3000 verse on “16″ definitely should have made it.
Few things:
1) What a weak-ass #1 choice. Not surprised though.
2) Common still trashed him.
3) Lol at the irony in Drake, the Lord of the Bitch-Made, complaining about dudes “actin like broads”. Aren’t the opening lines of Lord Knows about going through chicks’ purses and checking their phones while they’re in the bathroom? Get all the way the fuck outta here with that embarrassing, pathetic shit. You should be ashamed to say that out loud, let alone recording it…all while ruining such a monstrous Just Blaze beat.
4) Kobe’s wife fired back at him, put him in his place, and he immediately apologized. She also made sure to point out that, despite how much rappers like Drake love to claim otherwise, Kobe ain’t friends with him. Barely knows the guy.
Dude has like 2 or 3 flows, and when he isn’t rapping the softest “I can fix you, girl” bullshit, it’s strictly about how young he is, or about clothes. Which is fucking insane, because have you seen how this dude dresses? The only way Drake wins has nothing to do with rap, or “the game”. He sells records because he’s a pop artist. Pop artists always sell records, and it is in no way an indicator of quality or skills.
And he’s not even the top-selling, over-confident, obnoxious, young, accessible Canadian pop lesbian–that honor goes to Bieber.
Had everyone saying “B*tch you wasn’t with me shootin in the gym” this past summer…
Makes sense, this was the best verse, all things considered. Crazy it is from the very beginning of the year. Things that early are usually forgotten or outdone.
Drake’s verse was really on point. Definitely one of the best songs of 2012 from last year’s best free album. Rick Ross, MMG!!!

……….NO WAY IN HELL U WROTE THIS SHIT!!!! NOT WIT YA SPELLING AND WRITING DISABAILITY!!!! WHO GHOSTWRITIN’ FOR U???
………..HA!!!! NOT SURPRISED DRAKE WON!!!! I’D GIVE IT TO 3 STACKS THOU!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Shoulda been
5. Ghostface- God Flow
4. Jay Rock- Money Trees
3. Kendrick- Blessed
2. Andre 3000- Sorry
1. Drake- Stay Schemin
This bitch ass nigga said “Bitch you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym” Then apologized to Vanessa Bryant like a fucking pussy for saying that line in the song.
Andre 3000>All them other rappers I can’t believe y’all niggas considered ASAP Rocky to have a good verse at any point in his career SMH
3 Stacks verse was easily tougher than this, not to mention Drake’s feature on Amen was probably tougher too
I thought this verse would go unnoticed to be honest but im glad its #1 cuz this shit went HARD from start to finish. Drake had alot of memorable verses in 2012 but this is definitely THE VERSE OF THE YEAR.
I enjoyed this verse the most, 3k was close tho
Top 10 albums of 2012 in my opinion. http://rap-critic.blogspot.co.uk/
You’ve also got to consider the impact of the verse “Bitch you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym” was one of the biggest rap quotables of the year, Drake did body that verse. Whether it’s verse of the year is an arguable opinion, but it definitely deserves to be on this list. You niggas really should give Aubrey his props though…
Nas got more than 5 better verses on his album than all of these top 5 verses. And his Triple Beam Dreams verse is better than all these by a landslide. Pop Radar!!
This couldve made the best beats tho!
niggas be hating, this verse was fire
The verse was cool but…
How you say “It bothers me when the Gods get to acting like the broads” and then say “Kobe about to lose a hundred fifty M’s/Kobe my nigga, I hate it had to be him/Bitch you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym!”
Ain’t that gossiping like a broad?!? Just wondering
that verse was definitely the best …
I’m not mad that this verse is on here,
but how did not one Kendrick Lamar verse make the list. He out-rapped everybody last year JCole, Drake, Ross, Wale, Ye, Jay, Meek, ASAP.
Still a good verse though. “You wasn’t with me shooting in the gym!!”
and LMAO @ mac DIESEL’s comment. That paragraph WAS surprisingly well-written.
To reiterate my anger that I posted at 3Stacks “Sorry” verse being #3, here’s my response to Drake being #1 (again) on an Elliott Wilson co-signed list
So Drake’s false bravado as a tough guy against a rapper who eats tofu burgers is a better verse than Andre 3000 “Sorry” verse?
Really?
(laughter)
“Pussy ass niggas on the internet”
if the shoe fits, wear it blogger
@p0is0nedkoola
Lester Bangs of hip hop
If your blog thinks that Drake is the best then you don’t deserve to see the Outkast reunion
P.S.
Nas “Triple Beam Dreams” verse was better than this verse
and that’s on the same mixtape as this over-hyped song
I guess unless Kendrick joins MMG , he’s gonna only get as much shine as the people demand you to post , huh?
smh
@p0is0nedkoola

Great hip hop apparently reigns UNDER THE RADAR
I rarely comment, but this is just insane. This verse is full of lies , false claims more made up shit that usual. Fail.
not only the best guest verse…but the best verse of the year
yes I said it HA!
Honestly drake couldve had the top 5 slots in this section
No one fucked with him this year..he makes kensricks verses boring to me..and i mention kendrick cuz everyones thinks hes god mc
Fuck that, Eminem should have had the best verse of the year. His verse on Our House was crazy. Better than anything else I heard this year except for Nas’s last verse on World’s an Addiction, and Joell Ortiz’s ENTIRE Fuckin Problems freestyle.
Best guest verse of 2012???? You gotta be fuckin kidding me. What a weak ass verse, all you fools are blind to the real hip hop all around you and you choose to only recognize the wack shit and praise it. SMFH
Common destroyed the remix
NAH… FUCK THE WHOLE LIST
BEST FEATURE VERSE 2012 :PUSHA T MERCY
I would have given the award to 50 on Hate Being Sober or any Action Bronson solo track.
It’s Tuesday and you know what that means…Here’s this week’s Post-Apocalyptic Bliss Tuesdays cut, entitled “Stay Steady Smokin’”, the first drop off my upcoming mixtape, How to Make Love All Alone, which is dropping on Valentines Day: http://youtu.be/878wB1D48xg
