I think CSM is missing the point on this one
Yeah, the verses are braggy, but you cannot deny that they are also inspiring, if explicit. Drake talks about, for example, how everyone around him got a record deal, but he got popular without one. Eminem talks about standing up for yourself. And Kanye...well, no comment about Kanye

LiI wayne was good, but noone else was that good.
People need to know that this song is awesome, and its actually clean for lil wayne and eminem, and there is something called the clean version that takes most bad words out. It still has a bit of violence though. But out of all the verses, Kanye Wests is by far the worst. Id say Lil Wayne saved the song, because Kanye west was poo in his rap, Drakes rap was dumb, and Eminems wasnt as high quality as his other songs.

Rap: Art, Or Trash
Rap is defninitely an art. You either love it or you hate it. Some view it as hate-ridden slurs against the world, others view it as masterpieces, painted by the rappers with their mikes and their minds. Are nude ancient grecian statues porn? No certainly not, so rap music should not be judged so harshly. You either appreciate it or you don't.

Doesnt really send a good message to young children like my brother. Not really a good song to listen to. Cursing that isnt really 100% needed.

Get it, but make sure you get the clean version.
Language: 5 uses of "f--k", 17 uses of "sh--", 2 uses of "b--ch", 2 uses of "n--ga", 1 use of "d--k", 1 use of "god--mn", 28 swears total. Messages: Here and there, there are racist references to people like Malcolm X and Obama, with one racist word ("n--ga"). Also, tons of insults are spread throughout the song (e.g.: "You're such a f--kin' loser"), with depressing statements (e.g.: "Life is like a f--kin' roller coaster/then it drops"). Role Models: It's a good song, yet not wholesome, especially when you pair together Drake, Kanye West, Lil' Wayne, and Eminem. Violence: "Pistol on my side/you don't wanna hear that thing talk" is the most violent reference in this song. Sex: Two references: "I stuck my d--k inside this life until that b--ch came" and "I had r--ed the game young/you can call it statutory". Consumerism: Some references to movie characters, such as Ferris Bueller and Benjamin Button. Drugs: Eminem mentions an overdose.

If you like to listen to awful music, this is for you!
There are so many problems with letting your kids listen to this its almost ridiculous. Everything about rap music is already terrible, as there are virtually no appropriate rappers out there, and its not really music anyway. But the fact that this track and others by the artists all with all of the swearing and random innapropriate words thrown in was allowed to be played on my middle school bus every day is insane. The kids are not that mature and the music is pretty much a vocal rant on nothing. I cant even figure out what the overall message of these raps even are. Theres so much insane sexual content and swearing that it makes me want to vomit. Please, explain to me exactly how allowing little kids to listen to this is a good idea. Everyone at school listens to this, and they love it, and the music has even inspired them to swear and curse and do innapropriate things on a consistent basis. Lovely. Again, exactly what was going through the minds of the people who let the kids listen to this? Am I the ONLY PERSON of my age who thinks this way? Well anyways, its terrible. Its actually not so much that I hate rap music in general, but I also hate listening to HORRENDOUS rap music even more. I would tell you more about this brilliant music, but when something is this bad, it shouldnt even exist. And yes, once again, not one of the people involved in this is a good role model either. I would rather listen to a person screaming than this music.

Worst Song. Ever.
If a parent wants to burn their kids' ears, they could let their children listen to this song. It's horrible! One thing I do when I can't understand what the rappers are saying is I go online to make sure I'm not listening to profanity. I was shocked when I saw some of the lyrics. "I'm shutting s--t down in the mall and telling every girl she's the one for me and I ain't even planning to call" Yeah, that's wholesome. Not only is there the 's' word repeated in the chorus, but Drake is pretty much saying he's the s--t and that no one can mess with how good he is in the bed and at rapping. Horrible song. Period. (Just in case we're counting, a curse word is said 32 times in this song, including ni---r, b--ch, s--t, d--n, and f--k.)

by two really good rappers(eminem and kanye) one ok rapper (drake) and one teribble, ex convict rapper who only has one good song (lil wayne). so coming from people like this, you can already guess that this is off limits, and it is. I heard the edited version and about every other word was edited out, and it could easily be explicit without langauge.
