    Honestly starting to think that the beef has not only bruised Drake’s reputation as a current artist, but it’s made more people accept that his catalogue is just flat out one of the best in terms of just the volume of great music and memorable moments

    Drake still brings in an enormous amount of daily streams. More than any rapper (besides this recent Kendrick drop) and the general consensus I’ve been seeing even among the people who have been hating all year has been “his discog is undeniable but I don’t care about his new s*** and he’s weird.”

    I think that for some listeners, after the shock of everything that happened to him this year wears off, he’ll just kind of settle into “great artist, sociopath though” territory

    fr tho drake is probably just trying to wait for this s*** to blow over to pop out with a hit in x amount of months
    could be a couple, could be looking towards a year

    depends on how serious kendrick is about rallying the troops and trying to really take that number 1 spot in all facets. if he just goes away after the superbowl it's business as usual

    there wont be a "new guard" in rap

    label execs have been pushing rap out of the foreground for years now

    just look at the trend since 2020, rap lost 50% of its consumer base in just 3 years, insane

    Why don’t the percentages add up to 100 or am I slow. This is saying 58% of songs to make the chart in 2020 were hip hop?

    If that were his strategy he prolly should be dropped that embarrassing lawsuit sooner. Now he gotta wait all over again, he’ll he might as well wait till after superbowl at this rate

    I’m guessing the remainder is made up of genres with super small percentages and adding them wouldve crowded the graphic

    it's arrogance bro how do you think that gambler got in this mess in the first place
    he wanted to up the numbers on his next contract and thought if i smoke this kendrick nigga they gotta give me a higher payout now look what happened

    bro just filed a pre-action telling the world "this song not really like that fr yall stop playin"

    he's delulu bro of course he's gonna wait til after the super bowl to do something.

    for me it all depends on what kendrick does. this is his all eyez on me moment and this is the beginning of the hard work he needs to do if he really trying to make drake irrelevant frfr

    The statistical evidence is the album’s worth of songs and features that Drake dropped this year that made absolutely no noise whatsoever

    The only thing he can really do is what people been saying he should do which is put some f***ing effort into dropping the best album he possibly can, put all his talent and resources to work, keep the features and the filler to a minimum, and really talk to the people through his raps over classic fleshed out production

    Never gonna happen though sadly, what a waste of talent smh

    If he’s not gonna be a full time Gods Plan melodic rapper, he needs to let go of the monotone air flow/pitch where he uses one airflow and expression an entire f***ing line. It’s the core reason his raps didn’t hit in the grand beef ring. Get back to 5AM in Toronto, Nice For What. Stop f***ing around nigga, RAP like you actually give a f***. Jesus Christ act like you’re the biggest guy
