In the year 2017, almost everyone is a Drake fan. His reputation has exponentially grown from rapper to worldwide pop star. One of the most significant points in his career and maybe the most impactful was his beef with Meek Mill, where he was accused of ghostwriting. Due to these accusations, there has been a question in the hip-hop community if Drake is really as good of a rapper as he claims.

That being said, here are seven times Drizzy proved that nobody should question his lyrical ability.

1. "Fear"

Drake raps about his humble Toronto beginnings and his rise to fame, as well as all of the complications that come with it.

2. "Say Whats Real"

A classic freestyle from Drake's breakthrough mixtape "So Far Gone" over a Kanye beat that will make anyone forget the original.

3. "5AM In Toronto"

Coming off of success from "Nothing From The Same," Drake shows up with bars fired at anyone who thinks they can compete with him.

4. "30 for 30 Freestyle"

A calm, conversational freestyle over a melodic piano, where Drake reflects after winning his rap beef (while at the pinnacle of his career.)

5. "Weston Road Flows"

One of the best tracks from the polarizing "Views" album. From the beat to the flow, Weston Road Flows is Drake at his best.

6. "Lord Knows"

From arguably his best album "Take Care," Drake paired up with Rick Ross to deliver what may be his best rap song with legendary Just Blaze production.

7. "Tuscan Leather"

The is the intro to "Nothing Was The Same," and after hearing this track, I knew this album was going to be serious. Drake rapped six minutes straight to start the album.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
