It's time to put some respect on Wale's name, this man is consistent as hell. Say what you will about his albums as a whole (even tho everything is a lot is hard af), this man knows how to work his poetry skills when talking to the ladies. The beats are always high quality, often times sampling classic R&B and his flows match the production perfectly. This man is poetic as f***, coming up with basic but complex ways to illustrate intimacy between two people from the comfort that comes from quality time and conversation to actual sex. I still laugh when I think of the Joe Budden's line from the BET cypher where he says he'll shoot you and have Wale read a poem at your funeral. S***s a joke but the drop of real honesty in there is not many people do poetry better than Folarin

I wont even go in depth on how he also collabs with the best, from SZA, to Ant Clemons and more. If he ain't the best rapper making songs for the women he's at least top 3.

And before anyone comes in here talking about Drake, he sings to women and barely raps to them at this point. Not to mention his raps towards women tend to be pretty misogynistic over the last decade(or taking straight up shots). Wale always been respectful on his tracks

You can dismiss Drakes raps as misogynistic but women seem to actually like his songs waaaaaaay more than Wale. If we’re talking about “songs for women” isn’t that what it’s actually about?

CB on ''Angles''

Heaven On Earth is also very good

Probably not the best but he’s up there

Is the new album good?

Was listening to his new album and thought the same

Drake probably has the more notable songs like Jungle (but that’s him singing) but Wale is way more consistent with quality lyrics

Not to discredit Drake, but he has way more exposure than wale. Wale is never making hits like Drake did no matter what part of drakes career you look at. Just because more people know drakes songs doesn’t mean he’s better than wale at it.

You could make the argument that he’s more accessible but like I said, Drake is much more into singing and melodies were as wale just straight up raps

Also just cause women like his s*** doesn’t mean it’s not misogynistic

Yeah hes really good at it. Hes very smooth but doesn’t have the like disingenuous playboy kinda thing going on that someone like Jack Harlow has that makes me really struggle when he raps about/to women (and obviously Wale is just straight up a better rapper/writer)

I love Wale Appreciation

Not even including his mixtape joints too in OP he’s definitely one of the best in the lane

Wale’s also misogynistic too my boy

I remember getting clowned on here 3 years ago for saying that Wale had a decent female fanbase from my experience(just Black and Hispanic girls though).

lol

he's one of the best fs tho. in that lane

B****es don’t care though cause the dude’s ugly.

Drake out here putting out trash, but b****es love it cause he’s got a pretty face.

Nah I feel like a lot of wale’s fan base is women

People on here don’t know s***. I’d argue his fanbase is probably primarily women from what I’ve seen

Def not my experience at all.

But I don't think he appeals to White girls much though.

Do women even f*** with Wale like that??

I feel the only ones that care about Wale are early 30s men

From my experience, Black and Hispanic women f***ed with him when he was at his peak. I got put onto Wale's music from girls from my high school lol. But he lost commercial relevance over time so I'm not sure if that's the case anymore.

I don't think White women ever f***ed with Wale like that though even at his peak.

We ain’t f***ing with Wale after the whole pizza scandal

Drake exists

No black person is ugly
unless they are a coon
y'all better not reply with Coondace Soft Shoe to this post

Future is another rapper that has a strong female fanbase but it's mainly Black and Hispanic women.

Where Drake shines the most is appealing to suburban White and Asian girls on top of Black/Hispanic girls from street areas.

That's why Drake has the rep for being the "rapper for the hoes." But, if you remove suburban White and Asian women, he doesn't have the grip as much as people think.

In fact, I unironically know just as many BW who are stans of J Cole as Drake.

face it chuds, women find this irresistible
