Funk Flex Gives Drake His Flowers And Here’s Why
Funk Flex Gives Drake His Flowers And Here’s Why! During a recent sitting with HotNewHipHop, DJ Funk Flex recently spoke about the popularization of the more melodic style of hip-hop over the past decade.
Though quite a number artists are very good with the melodic rap style namely; Young Thug, Lil Uzi Vert, Post Malone, Future and Travis Scott, Funk Flex holds the view that Drake is the God father of the rap-sing style.
Despite Funk Flex’s harsh criticism towards the Canadian rapper over the years, the DJ admits that it was the 6 God who changed the game. During his interview with HNHH the DJ discussed the evolution of the game and Drake’s role in shifting the sound. Flex gave Drake credit for fathering the current rap-sing style.
“Drake has really fathered this amazing style of singing and rapping. I think when it comes to Drake though he has a clearer line of this is when I’m rapping and this is when I’m singing. I don’t think they mesh as hard together in his music, but I do like it,” Funk Flex explained.
Flex explains how he’s always been a top fan of the “What’s Next” hit maker “I have to be honest, he’s not made too many songs I don’t like,” he continued. “I never want to take away from a person’s creativity. He has not made many songs – I think, when we talk about Drake sometimes you have to say, ‘Well, I like this one level ten, I like this one level nine, I like this one level eight.’”
The Toronto rapper excited his fans after he linked up with Dreamville rapper J.I.D over the past weekend. As to what the pair was up to, nobody knows exactly but many people are hoping some sort of collaboration is in the offing with Drake finishing up CLB and J.I.D readying The Forever Story.
