In a recent interview with AP, Stunna spoke on his new album Pricele$$ and says that Drizzy could be bigger than his son—in about two decades.
Up-and-coming rapper Drake is becoming more popular. Do you see him being a bigger star than Lil Wayne?
Birdman: Drake is already a superstar.
But as big as Wayne?
Birdman: That’s 20 years from now. Hopefully, he’ll be bigger. That’s what we’re striving for. We ain’t tripping. We’re working hard for him to be bigger than anyone else. We want the best for him.
Father knows best. Right?

20 Years from now…. SMH… I give it 2 years and Drake will be bigger than Wayne! Weezy only generates interest among pop culture now, and that comes and goes, but real hip hop heads don’t fuck with him, let alone his music… Dude is a fake blood & a fake thug & a fruitcake!! At least Drake does him, and doesn’t put up a front!
I give that tool drake 2 more months before hes completely gone haha
Drake is boring+ annoying, wayne is good but became full of himself
Birdman is awful, worst rapper. Young money blows and all they rap is money and girls. THEY ALL SUCK
LMAO…dat nigga said 20 years! That’s like Drake coming out in 1989 and just NOW getting hot. LMAO!
20 YEARS?? WTF?!?! MAN, SYZZURP IS A HELLUVA DRUG!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!!
No one can say shit until his album drops.
DO i think he will sel? yes
Do i think hes good? yea hes ok..
DO i like him? FUCK NO!! But i cant knock his talent cuz the dude can rhyme..and obviously he will sell..
@PITRI
He might not sell as high as you would think, After seeing Brirdmans cd do 33k and Jay Seans do 31k I cant see Drake doing over 200k
*DEAD* at Birdmans picture LMAO
baby cracks me up. does he actually DO anything on the projects, or is he like the bankroll? he says “we” like he made wayne what he is – granted, he believed in dude, but weezy grinded on his own, from what i’ve seen.
drake’s EP does over 200
for 6 songs on it
so a 15, 16 new song
on a full first solo album
he can be GOLD for sure
for real 400k easily !
if he has great hits (radio rotation/good song for that)
over 500k for damn real, he can be platinium status next year
the only new artist that can be plat is him !
trust that
Is Drake really signed to Cash Money?
I see missing publishing checks and unpaid royalties in young Aubrey’s future.
drake is this generations mase
@dmc but look at his ep..that even sold..

@PITRI the buzz was has died down quite a bit since then, people are already being annoyed be his voice and his content
2 decades man more like 2 years 2 decades drizzy will be jiggas age contemplating retirement
Drake gives stupendous head
That nigga Drake’ll be 42 by that time!!! WTF is Birdman smok…nevermind, don’t answer that. question…
I see his buzz fading off in 2 years..wtf, 20?…..I don’t care who you is, it’s clear that you WON’T sell in these times. It’s over for that, why try? I say, just continue to make music, and not focus on what people are gonna sell, like wtf is that even still a discussion piece. Sellin’ cd’s hasn’t been big since 2003. Drake in 2010, sellin’ 500k would be monumental. But i still don’t see it, all luck to the kid

Ight ima hand it to you just like dis I dont think drake will ever be as big as lil wayne is…..Drake hass not been through as much as weezy has and drake may become big but never bigger than lil wayne….Like Wayne says he is the best rapper alive no dought he doin his thin and he aint goin any where no time soon…..So yaw people hatein on li wayne need to stop and yaw just mad cuz he makein more money den you can pull more girls den you and is Sexy as hell and dose his Job right…….Lil wayne is the best rapper alive. Go Wayne I love ya <333
Yes, I believe Drake has the potential to be the best and biggest name in Hip-Hop. Only time and consistency will tell. Hip Hop is evolving rapidly to the point where many have fallen off simply cuz they can’t keep up. Drake brings something very new to the table. As he put it himself “The game needs change and im the mofucking cashier.” Even Wayne is runnin outta style and material. Why you think he slowly crossin over to rock? Shit cuz there you don’t have to work as hard with developin concrete and clever lyrics. You just throw some shit together. Lol.
I love Wayne. Don’t get me wrong. He’s an amazing talent who’s contributed much to Rap but I still believe what I said earlier.
