paroles de chanson California's Hero - Drakeo the Ruler

Drakeo the Ruler is a West Coast rapper
Who's been called one of the most singular artists
To come out of Los Angeles since Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar
Drakeo first earned a boatload of attention for his music
That featured a laid-back easy style, distinct delivery
Off-beat cadence, and more coded vernacular than you can shake a stick at

If you're not familiar with Drakeo the Ruler
He's arguably the biggest underground rapper out of California right now
Who do you hear with Drakeo?
I don't hear anyone with Drakeo, I hear only Drakeo
You know?

And, like, I mean, there's a cottage industry of rappers trying to sound like Drakeo
We all know them, we don't need to mention them
I mean, some of them are pretty good actually
Like, I mean, there's
There's some really great songs
That are just people trying to sound like Drakeo

Drakeo the Ruler is one of the most influential artists in L.A.'s rap scene
Before Drakeo the Ruler would be accused
By the state of California of murder
And faced the possibility of a life sentence
Only to ultimately be acquitted of all charges
And still have to cop to a plea deal to get himself out of prison
Before Drakeo the Ruler would push past his comfort zone
And team up with Drake to release "Talk To Me", an anti-love love song

Drakeo the Ruler has been one of the hottest
Rappers to come out of Los Angeles since his release from jail in 2020
I'm a celebrity and they were just always like
And most of these niggas, I went to school with and shit like that though
So it's not like nothing like
Not like another rapper that would come to jail, like, and PC up and all that
I ain't never did none of that, I know a few people who did though

He fought a murder case involving a well-known gang member
Drakeo's strong work ethic, unique approach
And wordplay helped make him a legend in L.A.'s rap scene
And I think Drakeo really taps into the noir tradition you know, of nervous music
And, you know, I interviewed him, and he was like
"How am I gonna drive around in a hundred thousand dollar car
With people trying to kill me? It's a nervous lifestyle"
