Ten Worst Hip-Hop Songs of 2015
  1. [divider]5[/divider]“Hotline Bling” by Drake

I debated whether or not to include this on the list. It is a good song, catchy hook, nice beat and something you can dance to even if you can’t dance. Yet with all its pluses, this song is lyrically flawed. A song about a failed past relationship has been done to death and can still be done right but not when the person performing the song complains of how the ex has matured and moved on without them, especially since he admitted in the song that (1) they’re relationship was basically a booty call scenario and (2) he left the city first to pursue his career and basically expected her to wait for him.

Drake is asking this unknown unnamed girl to put her life on hold while he lives his. I am a fan of Drake especially since he bodied Meek Mill twice lyrical and I know he can do better. You can write a breakup song on many levels, usually the artists will either say how they’re at fault, how they’re heartbroken or how they’ve moved on but this is the first song I’ve heard where the artist is mad at the girl for not waiting around on .  In this case for Drake, who left the city so she decided to get her own. I applaud this unknown nameless girl. This song just makes Drake sound selfish.

For the most part of his life, Adrian’s biological father was absent from his life. Growing up with a house full of cousins, aunts and uncles, Adrian began his love of writing to document his surroundings. Attending a private school for 9 ½ years, it was there that many influential teachers help strengthen his love of writing via English and creative writing classes.

Leaving DC at the age of 7, Adrian and his family moved to Temple Hills, Maryland in Prince George’s not too far from where he had lived previously. Luckily, Adrian had taken part in many youth outreach programs as a youth that allowed him to travel and see the country, many kids he knew around his own age hadn’t even left the city. These experiences opened his eyes to other cultures and ways of living. As a teenager, Adrian had many friends who passed away before their time but he promised to keep writing to honor their memory.
