    Exactly. Dedicate the album to his memory and give rap fans some new music to lose themselves in this weekend. Lord knows we'll all need it. The whole situation is just sad. Smh.

    You guys have to remember that it’s 2 rappers involved here too. If 21 felt more comfortable pushing back drake will too and vice versa

    We will see

    releasing a project called her loss in 2 days isn’t very tasteful bro

    Respectfully, can someone explain the rationale behind pushing the tape back?
    Unless there are some particularly tasteless bars about killing someone over gambling on it, I don’t see how this is related to the tragedy.
    I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but I just don’t understand what the two situations relate

    Gives both guys time to grieve instead of doing press runs and PR and they don’t want to dominate the news cycle with their stuff while people are grieving and give spotlight to takeoff.
    Also from a business perspective the label won’t want to share the headlines or drop at a time that can be criticized. They’re gonna wait till people are over it so they are in a mood to stream/buy it and avoid any controversy.

    Because Drake is going to want to make the week about honoring Takeoff, not dominating the news cycle with his music.

    He’s also going to feel like the energy is not right to drop new music

    I guess that makes sense.
    I wonder what the move will be then.
    Smh, it’s really depressing that rappers are still dying like this at all, tbh.
    As hip hop culture moves forward and becomes more and more mainstream, we need to start holding ourselves to higher and higher standards regarding how it is conducted.
    I know the street life is intrinsic to certain types of hip hop and rappers, but once they make it, we have to put more energy behind protecting them and promoting safer practices imho.
    Like, whatever assclown who shot ‘em over a f***ing dice game shouldn’t be being accepted into the culture anyway.
    Idk if all of that was articulated properly, it’s just sad to see what’s STILL going on

    This makes sense and was a good explanation, thank you

    This makes more sense than that other post itt but I still could see them dropping this week

    We will see

  • Nov 1, 2022

    I would be surprised if this still dropped this week.

    Delaying the album by a week is more so a sign of respect than it is an assumption everyone will be over the loss by then.

    Drake’s Apollo show is next week so maybe he could drop the album and play some new songs at the show?

  • Nov 1, 2022

    F*** man. Can’t believe Takeoff is gone. This s*** is so sad.

    Album is so trivial in light of this happening, but fwiw I think they should push it back a couple weeks.

  • Nov 1, 2022

    Id be lying if I said the release date of this didn't cross my mind with the news but we shouldn't be worrying about it whatsoever. This is f***ing terrible. RIP Takeoff man

  • Nov 1, 2022

    Drake was close with Migos don't think it will be released on friday

    I mean they both knew takeoff and had a level of friendship with him who are we to tell them “nah drop the album for us” if they are still working on this and putting final touches to it this likely put a massive hold on it

    But if a friend of yours passed away, would you still want to release an album? Not even talking about how the fans and media will react, just from Drake and 21’s perspective they’re prolly grieving and dealing with this as well. They might not even be in the right headspace to want to drop this week anymore.

    I was actually thinking it’d be a nice gesture if they somehow made a song about him or if that’s too much, changed a song title and called it “RIP Takeoff” or something, considering they both seemed to know him, and it wouldn’t be hollow from them.
    Idk, the more I think about it, the more it’s feeling like this may be pushed back

    Just tried to listen to a rap song about killing ops and legit had to turn it off.
    I actually can’t see a world where this doesn’t get pushed back if there is any content like that on the record.
    It’s just the absolute worst way to meet the moment, and I think both artists are more sensible than that

    Instead of doing predictions, we should just wait what Drake and 21 has to say today or tomorrow

    It's kind of disrespectful to speculate about this right now
