Twitter goes into meltdown thanks to a raging debate of who is the biggest rapper in hip-hop industry between St. Louis-native rapper Nelly and Canadian spitter Drake. Drake's fans say that Drizzy is bigger than Nelly, while others are crediting the "Dilemma" hitmaker as the top rapper in his genre.

For the most part, there are lots of arguments about who is more successful. Those who grew with Nelly's massive hits quickly point out the success of his debut album "Country Grammar", which became the ninth rap album to be certified diamond. One fan tweeted, "Nelly hit the whole US like a bomb in the early 00s and there's no diminishing the moment, regardless of where he ended up since."

Meanwhile, Drake's fanatic fans believe that the Canadian rapper has become more than just artist, and his sustained years of dominance become evidence of him having the superior run in the music industry. One user wrote, "Drake literally been the top rapper popularity wise for 6 years straight..dont disrespect that run by comparing it to Nelly."

There are also debates focused on whether Nelly's success opened a way for artists like Drake. Team Nelly argues that it clearly did, while the pro-Drake doesn't think so. A user tweeted, "Without Nelly do we really see a Drake? Nelly literally pioneered everything Drake is doing." Meanwhile, a pro-Drake wrote, "Drake just had the highest grossing rap tour ever and we really debating if at any point Nelly was hotter than he is? Go on."

Some neutral users share their thoughts on the never-ending debate. "Drake v. Nelly is an odd comparison. Nelly hit higher highs with 'COUNTRY GRAMMAR' and 'Nellyville' but Drake's cultural impact is much bigger," tweeted one commenter.
