"California's Hero" lyrics
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 LA'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 LA'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"
