I see it like this. If a person cheats in a maths paper and score the highest marks that won't make him a mathematician. To be a mathematician you need to have indepth knowledge of the underlying concepts of maths, and you need to practice it regularly . So even if you don't score to highest marks ,which that dude got by cheating , you're still better than him in mathematics .Lyricism is kinda like that
"I like the IDEA of Drake" - Hopsin Say what you want about him but that might be the most accurate assessment of Drakes career, all things considered.
E Cash think you missed the point. Yes he can rap along to a reference track. But he stop writing his music and use a team. That's all good. But you can't claim to stand on ground that TRUE MC'S you couldn't even sound like someone else back then.
Real mc's(rappers for young ppl) dont use writers. Its the first commandment of rap. Its the thing that separates us from other genres. Dont give an excuse for people who are not that talented. If you nice, your nice hands down.
Britney Spears is a performer and songwriter. If she had the voice she’d be female Michael Jackson. Janet comes close but she doesn’t have the magic presence
I gotta agree wit Aries on this one. I'm 38years old & been listening to hip hop for 30years. I love the writers who can SPIT, that's what makes it something special. To me u can always get a "handsome/charismatic" person wit a great writer to make a PRODUCT! It's only an opinion but to me dats the unique artistry. Love the interview thus far🤘
Lewis Jones bruh when I found out about it I went wild. Like yes it’s a good sound but I never knew HOV can make a song about a cartoon character sound so damn good. 💯
This is how you tell a certain artist is on the same level as another Strip away all their popularity, all their marketing, and their "radio hit singles" till you have nothing but their raw talent as an MC. Nothing but lyrics, flow, messages, and songs that can move a crowd. You think Drake and Kanye can hang with that against Nas, Jay Z, and Em? There is a reason when it comes to making top ten lists that Nas, Jay Z, and Em always come up.....when does Drake and Kanye come up in anyone's top ten that isn't a mindless teenager?
Mike Illmatic who cares yall really...all them got our money..already .i mean if u in the studio and on your 13 bar you buddy say man say like instead of love...does that count or naw
Mc doesn’t equal artist...kanye is a producer and drake has 40 which helps him make music so what are you talking about...dosent always come down to pen and if u keep letting kanye rap and drake top 10 is a discussion mostly for kanye but not drake
It's more of a conversation than an interview. I prefer that type of content way more tbh. Interviews just seem flat unless it's handling something pivotal like the interview with Havoc after Prodigy's death. Conversations just get more content out if they're done right and it also allows new questions to develop naturally.
@@lyrics2challenged Eh, shut the fuck up. You may not like them but it's almost impossible to talk about the GOAT of rap and not have these men on that list.
Jay Pretli right, but they know the masses are so stupid that they will eventually accept ANYTHING that's forced on them no matter how trash it is. FUTURE is an example. when he came out everyone called him trash, but the radio constantly played him and now he's accepted.
Yeah, but the white man score card is precisely what works in hip hop these days...from a success level. MCs should be writing their own shit but they don't always
Everyone don't gotta have that nigga on every list. Any rapper for that fact. Your point is debunked with Em, who aint from NY. The truth is everyone in the title had a chipher, Pac would give you the least stank face bars. Point blank. No shade, just facts.
Aries Spears is truer than Lord Jamar , his ideas about ghostwriters and steroids are so true. He has the top 2 interviews on VladTV. I wish he becomes a regular guest like Jamar
big problem in rap today is the lack of messages/storytelling and its not even just mumble rappers there are actually talented rappers who do nothing but just spit bars seriously when was the last eminem song that had a message or told a relate-able story that can resonate with you
A quick note on Will Smith. He had some good songs (i.e. Summertime and Miami) but his "Men in Black" song got him a Grammy Award. Guess who he beat that year? Biggie's "Hypnotize." >:(
TheBigBadGRIM Well the shitty Grammys are known as being the most worthless of all the awards ceremonies. Tupac and Nas have never won a single one, but the likes of Kayne, Jay and Em have millions
Sai Teja_ Yeah and someone could argue Rihanna and Beyoncé do as well. So did Elvis and the Beatles. Ain’t rapping better though. This the genre this the culture this is all that matters.
When labels spend on rap ghostwriters it's no longer genuine. It's just words, words without soul. So we're left with empty lyrics, and hallow tracks. Rappers used to lose their careers if it ever got out that they had ghostwriters. Nowadays it's common practice. Most artists are just faces with no real talent or depth in character. So now what we get is watered down and it's not real rap I'm hearing on the radio, but stolen verses, and cheat codes.
Bruh it’s like Aries got a solid opinion and point. But at the same time the mindset this man has is the same reason why we don’t know any of his of stand up specials or know any movie he’s in. Even tho I’m a fan of Aries and his impressions. Honestly this goes back to my point of if you winning then you walking and if you losing then u talking.
Nas didn't write Gettin Jiggy Wit It... Nas already responded and said he was just in the studio with Will when he wrote it, and gave Will a couple ideas, but didn't "write" the song, Will did.
Kanye was massively important in Jayz career, he helped construct hooks and i beleive had some hand in the writing of Jay Zs work. Kanye isnt really an MC specifically but more a rap artist/producer/visionary.
I think most rappers have had help at some point at least once. You can't tell me Eminem wrote the hook or the bridge for I'm Not Afraid, same for Lil Wayne he didn't do all the writing for Lollipop.
I'm gotta disagree with Arie Spears ..... Kanye is definitely on Jay's, Nas, And Eminem's level .... Lyrically no ....but Body of Work, Influence, Consistency, Game Changing sound, and ECT ..... Kanye is their ...... I remember when he dropped " Flashing Lights " in 2007 ......it was so different and left field ...... The beat had people going crazy! Give Ye his respect
Don't underestimate the value of delivery in rap; it's about 30% lyrics and 70% delivery; That's why there are no many wack rappers selling records and so many great lyricists who are underappreciated
REES Wavy They have though, you think people were writing for drake or kanye in their early days when they were releasing mixtapes? No, or when they released their early albums? No, just because you get help doesn't mean you GG full tracks written for you. I heard that kanye will give someone a writing credit if they even create ONE line on an album. The point is people need to stop acting these guys have had full albums written out for them just because people don't want to give credit.
Listen Vlad this is our music real mc's can never be legendary without writing their own lyrics this isn't country, R&B, etc you can't make our music to what you want it to be Mr. White man!! Cause you love drakes music this is HIP HOP that started in the ghettos of the Bronx not Hollywood California B!!
At the end of the day I.T about money the more you have the more respect you get and they know I.T if drake ask any of these guys to join his team they would they just hate this man won’t give them the a chance!!!!
I wish people would stop comparing Kanye to Drake. Drake doesn't make beats. He doesn't have 25 Grammys like Kanye. And what sucks about it also is the fact, people still use the old clip of Rhymefest writing something for Kanye(yawn.. in the early 2000's). THERE IS NO OTHER PERSON WHO WROTE FOR KANYE. And the only thing Drake has done was write hooks for three songs. There was no rap lyrics written for Kanye. They were just hooks. Kanye writes and produces his own shit. I understand that Kanye hurt the feelings of most who doesn't like his political views. But, come on! Let's keep it real! Kanye is a legend. He proved to Jay Z when he signed him that he could rap! In spite of the constant hate! And the crap being pulled to remove his material from online, and the constant strategic removal of the views and likes on all of G.O.O.D. Music material! I hope Pusha T wins rap album of the year because it's obvious, that their movement is solid and a threat! #G.O.O.D.Music #YouCanWear350'sAroundMe
Nas didn't write for Will Smith. This is what Nas said. Alright, let’s clear this up once and for all. I hung out with Will in the studio. And watched him write it. It was a fun studio session, and I said a line or two or three to him. It wasn’t that serious. Will Smith wrote that song. But seriously, I watched him have fun making that record on his own, and Will is a true MC,” Nas says.
It’s one thing to be in the booth with your mans and he brings up a dope line and you use it, or to pay homage, it’s another to have active writers writing 85-100% of your shit.
Haha, i love his closing comment. "Gucci gang, Gucci gang, Gucci gang.....what the fuck are we doing!?" I feel him 110% on that. Shit is fucking garbage.
WTF?! Nasty Nas wrote "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It", for Will Smith?! LMAO! I never knew that! If that's true, that's random AF! Haha! Nas would be the LAST person I'd expect, to have written a poppy type of song, like that! Shit, that means, Nas must've made straight BANK, if that's the case!
Yeezy is going to go down as one of the top 20 based on what he stands for. Blasting Bush on TV. Snatching the mic because Queen B should've won that award.

Ask Aries Spears this same question right now, and see what he says. Drake is #1 in hip hop now and Kanye West is like #3 or #4 on the list, despite his antics

djvlad You should also ask him about what he thinks about New York rappers trying to sound like Southern rappers nowadays and them jacking Southern slang. And what he thinks about the New York sound kind of fading away. You really need to go in-depth with him on that.
Darren Mallett Really??? Who wrote for Jay??? And please (with all do respect because I'm not trolling you), If you're going to respond with the typically vague or rather shallow reply ... " Do the/your research... " than provide me with thorough and concrete info with valid sources. You know... something of gravity. Again, not being sarcastic or facetious here. #warning90sbaby
I wish ppl would atop saying "Rap is a young man's game". No it's not, if you look at who's really selling the most likely overall and the top tiers, it's all older MCs.
Prince, Lenny Kravitz, and Beck write their own music and play all the instruments . ..... however I completely understand cyhi's point. to become number 1 an artist has to become an institution. Hence the revolution. Hence good music. Hence aftermath. Hence Roc-a-fella.
You don't even have to mention Pac. He's the GOAT, above the scope of any rapper. Aries probably thinks 2Pac sucks. He's a joke punchline loving silly style dude.
Dre never had ghost writers, he had known writers. Dre never claimed to be a writer. We all know Cube & D.O.C. wrote all of Dre’s & Easy’s raps. We all know Snoop & D.O.C. wrote everything for Dre’s The Chronic” album. Ghost writers are unknown & the artists claims the credit. Dre never did that.
At the end of the damn day, rap falls under music. Ppl who only contribute bars might as well be poets. Ppl that only produce might as well make soundtracks for movies and such. True artists and the musicians that do it all
If you have writers, you are not allowed to be in the discussion of best lyricist. Period.
DangerousUrNot facts

Emcees write...period.
ew gross period
Jay-Z isn't an MC? He didn't write. Neither did Big for most of his career
Jay Z don't write
Emcees write (or memorize) for all non-emcees memorizing your own bars count as writing.
Kanye is a better artist than Jay Z Nas and Em but they are better MC’s

Say what you want about him but that might be the most accurate assessment of Drakes career, all things considered.

Hiphop is at a sad state right now.. your 100% right Aries. I find myself playing more 90s hiphop than stuff from now.
Real mc's(rappers for young ppl) dont use writers. Its the first commandment of rap. Its the thing that separates us from other genres. Dont give an excuse for people who are not that talented. If you nice, your nice hands down.
William Lamont Biz Markie wrote for Big Daddy Kane.
Several people sold songs to Jay
William Lamont Ice Cube wrote for Dr. Dre and Eazy E .... sold millions and back then EVERYONE knew and no one dissed them. Facts
It doesn't separate rap from other genres there is variation throughout many genres
@Loud Thunder good point, I guess I see now that performing other writers lyrics or collaborative lyric writing is more taboo than in other genres.
LMAO!!! Damn right Aries!! Gucci gang, gucci gang!!! WTF IS GOING ON?!!!
Yeah that shit so wack
"What. the FUCK. Are we DOING?" SO TRUE!
Terrance Greene the elites that run the industry are obviously trolling us
Throwboy its not us...
Hip hop is awful more than it's ever been. Aries is right!!
This is basically hip hop head 101...he didn't say anything that we didn't already know

Jermaine McClain and others write their own shit
Most of these ppl commenting are still in the remedial course😒

Who’s giving the interview?🤔 Aries or Vlad? They both got good questions
It's more of a conversation than an interview. I prefer that type of content way more tbh. Interviews just seem flat unless it's handling something pivotal like the interview with Havoc after Prodigy's death.
Conversations just get more content out if they're done right and it also allows new questions to develop naturally.
xenophontiacicidationarionism I love how Aries fires back though! It makes it interesting.
xenophontiacicidationarionism and I totally agree with what you’re saying. It’s hard to find interviews like this one.
No one on the level of Jay z eminem nas bigge pac they are the top 5 greatest hip hop artists of all time
No. They're the most basic used surface level rap list ever*
@@lyrics2challenged So who’s the greatest in your opinion
@@lyrics2challenged maybe there the most basic because most deserving?
@@lyrics2challenged Eh, shut the fuck up. You may not like them but it's almost impossible to talk about the GOAT of rap and not have these men on that list.
Black Thought, Lupe, Common, Krs-One, Rakim, etc
That’s why Hip Hop is in the state it’s in. The unwritten rules is killing the genre.
That's what makes it Hip Hop and not another genre. The white-man score card doesn't fit the criteria.
Aries-1, Cyhi-0.
Jay Pretli the white man actually handpicks our rappers...
True, but we don't have to accept the labels.
Jay Pretli right, but they know the masses are so stupid that they will eventually accept ANYTHING that's forced on them no matter how trash it is. FUTURE is an example. when he came out everyone called him trash, but the radio constantly played him and now he's accepted.
TRUE
Yeah, but the white man score card is precisely what works in hip hop these days...from a success level. MCs should be writing their own shit but they don't always
How could he not mention Big Pun and Big L with those Em, Big, Jay, and Jada
U can tell he from #NewYork he purposely left out #2Pac
Ralphion New York always hatin on PAC!!
Even though pac was born n grew up in NY lol
Everyone don't gotta have that nigga on every list. Any rapper for that fact. Your point is debunked with Em, who aint from NY. The truth is everyone in the title had a chipher, Pac would give you the least stank face bars. Point blank. No shade, just facts.
Umm... I thought he was from South Bend, Indiana.
Ralphion he is talking about lyricists and pac is not a top tier lyricist.
Man hes right. On this one.
The legends is on another level. But. What made them legends.

Aries Spears is truer than Lord Jamar , his ideas about ghostwriters and steroids are so true. He has the top 2 interviews on VladTV. I wish he becomes a regular guest like Jamar
Ahmed Alzahranu shud def be a regular
The last 10 second of this interview is the realest statement on the current state of hip hop.
I won't listen to any rapper I know isn't writing his own music
Night Rider faxxxx
So no lil wayne
You listen to ye?
Eazy E ?
big problem in rap today is the lack of messages/storytelling and its not even just mumble rappers there are actually talented rappers who do nothing but just spit bars seriously when was the last eminem song that had a message or told a relate-able story that can resonate with you
When em talks abt bring a poor kid that gets beats up and is underestimated thats almost every song
Love how Aries shouts out Jadakiss on every interview! Jada is top 5 DOA!
Thank you for ppl like aries im 26 and hate this new shyt! I miss real rap
I'm stealing that line, "Looking for the prize in the cereal box."
"Gucci gang Gucci gang Gucci gang what the fuck are we doing right now" PREEAAACCHH 👌🙏🙌
Rappin’ is different PERIOD!
A quick note on Will Smith. He had some good songs (i.e. Summertime and Miami) but his "Men in Black" song got him a Grammy Award. Guess who he beat that year? Biggie's "Hypnotize." >:(
TheBigBadGRIM will wasn't bad. his song "just the two of us" was underrated
TheBigBadGRIM Rakim wrote Summertime
Will smith underrated
Grammys are to be ignored. Who gives a fuck
TheBigBadGRIM Well the shitty Grammys are known as being the most worthless of all the awards ceremonies. Tupac and Nas have never won a single one, but the likes of Kayne, Jay and Em have millions
Aries always speak the truth
The very end had me dying. TRUTH!!!
Kanye makes better music than jay z
HighIncome moe yep
Nice trolling
@@joynerkt you fell for his trolling.
He also makes better music than em and nas
Sai Teja_ Yeah and someone could argue Rihanna and Beyoncé do as well. So did Elvis and the Beatles. Ain’t rapping better though. This the genre this the culture this is all that matters.
“What. The. Fuck. Are we doing?” Lmaooo
Aries always keeping it 💯
Singin is *definitely* a different ballgame than rapping. Aries is on some real sht!
Ending was the best. “Gucci gang Gucci gang Gucci gang - what the fuck are we doing???”
Biggie alone was 300 minds 😂
Theres levels and degrees to this man
I still love Aries. Some of yall don't like him bc of the 5150 drama. Both him and Corey are great comedians. I'm not picking a side
when he said u gotta reach deep in the cereal box and wtf are we doing, DJ VLAD made the Arthur fist

Don't even front like that song ain't fly as fuck. That whole Big Willie Style album is a classic. You must be a backpack fan to not like it.
DiverseLA Steve stoute admitted that Nas wrote it

Kanye was massively important in Jayz career, he helped construct hooks and i beleive had some hand in the writing of Jay Zs work. Kanye isnt really an MC specifically but more a rap artist/producer/visionary.
Rap now just isn't the same.
how is this not obvious af
You have to dig deep to find the talented ones in rap now FACTS
yeah I agree with Aries spears they were more talented artist s in the 90 compared to now
I think most rappers have had help at some point at least once. You can't tell me Eminem wrote the hook or the bridge for I'm Not Afraid, same for Lil Wayne he didn't do all the writing for Lollipop.
nas wrote gettin jiggy wit it?? shit, i missed that one, that explains why i like that song

" It depends on what you looking like. " The truth is in this revealing slip.
Bro drake be spittin. Not anymore but his take care days he was goin hard. He was brought in the game by Wayne he must’ve taught him something
Don't underestimate the value of delivery in rap; it's about 30% lyrics and 70% delivery; That's why there are no many wack rappers selling records and so many great lyricists who are underappreciated
Ask for that rematch Aries !!
Vald answered Aires like waiting on a Drake interview haha
I understand the ghostwriting thing but people act like kanye and drake can't write for themselves, they obviously can and have written great songs.
alfonso White Lol from Ghostface to Nas, they’ve All had writers ... kim, Wayne, ODB, Snoop, shit, Even Kanye did A reference track for Jay .
alfonso White so why not write for themselves
REES Wavy They have though, you think people were writing for drake or kanye in their early days when they were releasing mixtapes? No, or when they released their early albums?

I see it like this. If a person cheats in a maths paper and score the highest marks that won't make him a mathematician. To be a mathematician you need to have indepth knowledge of the underlying concepts of maths, and you need to practice it regularly . So even if you don't score to highest marks ,which that dude got by cheating , you're still better than him in mathematics .Lyricism is kinda like that
In that flashback the dude named nothing but singers.

6:07 on repeat, bringing tears to my eyes. LMAO
Ask Aries Spears this same question right now, and see what he says. Drake is #1 in hip hop now and Kanye West is like #3 or #4 on the list, despite his antics
Vlad made my eyes turn red in da blink of a eye wtf

djvlad You should really continue this conversation with Aries Spears and go more in-depth with it.
djvlad You should also ask him about what he thinks about New York rappers trying to sound like Southern rappers nowadays and them jacking Southern slang. And what he thinks about the New York sound kind of fading away. You really need to go in-depth with him on that.
djvlad kanye gets put in a different category because of his production... The only person in his category is rza
djvlad your wrong Jay Z did have writers.
Darren Mallett Really??? Who wrote for Jay??? And please (with all do respect because I'm not trolling you), If you're going to respond with the typically vague or rather shallow reply ... " Do the/your research... " than provide me with thorough and concrete info with valid sources. You know... something of gravity. Again, not being sarcastic or facetious here.

I NEW IT EMINEM WOULD MAKE IT EMINEM HAS THE BEST SPITTING LYRICS
no one's on the same level as #EMINEM
I think top 5 should go era and subsection of hip hop. For example, top rapper 1990-1999, top dj 2000-2010, and so on
Aries on point.
I wish ppl would atop saying "Rap is a young man's game". No it's not, if you look at who's really selling the most likely overall and the top tiers, it's all older MCs.
Prince, Lenny Kravitz, and Beck write their own music and play all the instruments . ..... however I completely understand cyhi's point. to become number 1 an artist has to become an institution. Hence the revolution. Hence good music. Hence aftermath. Hence Roc-a-fella.
Um 2pac?
Bunch of New York garbage
Eric Cartman agreed
tupac is above these kids: he's up there with bob marley, chuck berry, blind willie johnson, robert johnson, sam cooke and elmore james.
You don't even have to mention Pac. He's the GOAT, above the scope of any rapper. Aries probably thinks 2Pac sucks. He's a joke punchline loving silly style dude.
Best lyricists: Pac, wayne, big, and pre-sober Em.
Nas dam not get jiggy with it
SALUTE BROTHAZ.
Ain't no one better than 50
Talk about the real shit the zo Williams fight Aries Spears
“What the phuc are we do’n” - Aries Spears Lol ☝🏿
Bs Eminem is the biggest rapper in the world and he's never used writers ever
He’s not lying
Dre never had ghost writers, he had known writers. Dre never claimed to be a writer. We all know Cube & D.O.C. wrote all of Dre’s & Easy’s raps. We all know Snoop & D.O.C. wrote everything for Dre’s The Chronic” album. Ghost writers are unknown & the artists claims the credit. Dre never did that.
At the end of the damn day, rap falls under music. Ppl who only contribute bars might as well be poets. Ppl that only produce might as well make soundtracks for movies and such. True artists and the musicians that do it all
