I thought Yelawolf was hott on the front of the mixtape and he looks pretty good on the new one too, but his black trenchcoat haircut concerns me.

there's just nothing remarkable about drake's look. he's joe schmoe, mr average. with eyes set too far apart, like a dolphin/like justine henin. no angles to his face at all.
yeah yelawolf's longer hair is really not good but he has a pretty amazing face beneath all that.
― lex diamonds (lex pretend), Friday, 31 December 2010 08:54 (thirteen years ago) link
conventionally average. he looks like a slob.

i think his lack of stylishness is part of his appeal to women tbh. it codes him as hetero-masculine in a jockish way (which offsets his otherwise wimpy non-aggressiveness) in a way he wouldn't if he was fashion-obsessed like kanye or whoever. i mean, you can get away with that if you're as suave and macho as t.i., but drake is neither of those things.
― The Reverend, Friday, 31 December 2010 08:57 (thirteen years ago) link
^^^ I think this is spot on. Lex i think what you see as "mr average" a lot of ladies would see as "dude next door" who'd maybe be able to fix their drain pipe.
― Tim F, Friday, 31 December 2010 09:02 (thirteen years ago) link
i guess, but he doesn't have that physically prepossessing alpha male quality of most jockish sex symbols (whether "fake jock" celebrities like, idk, channing tatum, or actual sportsmen)

slouching, unshaven, thick-necked, unstylish, pig-eyed. what no i cannot accept this as a sex symbol.
― lex diamonds (lex pretend), Friday, 31 December 2010 09:06 (thirteen years ago) link
ha, i'm going to draw a distinction here that doesn't apply to drake because he is neither of these things: kanye west is fashionable; t.i. is stylish
― The Reverend, Friday, 31 December 2010 09:07 (thirteen years ago) link
lex this may blow your mind to itty bitty pieces but women don't necessarily love their men super-groomed
― The Reverend, Friday, 31 December 2010 09:09 (thirteen years ago) link
i think his eyebrows have something to do with it tbh
― The Reverend, Friday, 31 December 2010 09:10 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah neither do i, necessarily, but there has to be SOMETHING there

drake basically just looks like a less flamboyant jersey shore dude

The latest signing to Eminem’s Shady Records label, Yelawolf will play his debut UK shows in Manchester and London this June.
Envision a humid world of slow-rolling Monte Carlos and slaughter houses; meth labs and rusting Mossberg’s, inked up arms and haircuts that look like they’ve been chopped by hatchets. Trunk muzik. Southern Pine trees, smoking pine, and pine boxes. Call him Catfish Billy or Yelawolf; just don’t go make him go pop the trunk on you.

Also this is way better and yeller than the billing would suggest. Gives me some hope that the Eminem helmed album won't be a disaster:

He's playing in London next month, kinda wondering if he's worth seeing live.

Saw him in London the other week and he's really got this total nailed-down intensity live. Like, total command of his voice, whether he's doing double-time or when he's being more dramatic, on Pop The Trunk etc. Also he managed to totally nail the bruised fake defiance at the start of 'Love Is Not Enough' - the whole "I got me, bitch..." when you can hear he's saying the exact opposite.
Also for all the lol Jesse Pinkman jokes, everyone in the audience seemingly looked like Combo or Badger.

Also he walked past us in the queue and said hello like 2mins before he went onstage. No nonsense.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 21 June 2011 10:49 (twelve years ago) link

There are no songs with him complaining about being compared to Eminem because he is white.

There are no songs with him complaining about being compared to Eminem because he signed to Eminem's label and clearly would have no problem with that.
