If an artist is making music that is topically mostly touching on rich nigga s***, it is not relatable to the average person. That’s what was being discussed, not whatever it is you’re talking about

Seeing the behaviour some people have exhibited following Apple Music and Spotify revealing Drake as a top listened-to artist on both platforms for 2025 just further confirms how many miserable f***s really thought that Kendrick had managed to destroy his career

Wym? Thats an actual thing you did

Relatable in the literal sense but what rapper makes “relatable” music for people that are in school or work 9-5’s like 99% of people on here do…

That’s a non sequitur

Nothing will ever erase that stain, you made a megathread for a rappers kid

Literally nobody thought this

It's a) just not true that all Drake music is about his money, plenty of people loved $$$4U cos of how relatable it was and b) you don't know anyone on this forum IRL and what they do and do not relate to. If you can't relate to Drake music more power to you but going off one lyric and one blanket statement and hoping for the best doesn't dilute the relatability of his music for me, or anyone else who likes Drake

Drake said his new music isn’t relatable for yall.

But what does he know he’s literally the guy who makes the music

We are not discussing the same things than.
I say his music is more relatable. and you bring up a "Rich" bar drake said.

The theme of his music is relatable. doesn't have to be bar for bar.

and im not discussing his last "5 years" im talking about his entire discog.

It’s like nobody knows what a generality is any more

What exactly is the relatable theme of his recent music?

They’re arguing with the artist himself at this point

It's not a generality if it's based off one lyric and has more exceptions than otherwise don't backtrack now

It’s not based off one lyric are you crazy

It was one example

Also I mean you don’t know what a generality is because you think the fact that some people still relate to his music means that saying his music isn’t relatable is wrong

This is a very silly thing to say

Bean soup theory in action

well for some sexy songs 4u its an overall mix of

Nostalgia, club culture , love and desire.

It’s really not, y’all do that a lot on here

“This album wasn’t really loved by people”

“Not true I loved it and my friend did too”

Nobody said y’all didn’t

I don’t relate to old Drake either and that doesn’t stop me

I listen to Headlines and I sing along not because I’m a rapper that just got rich and famous, I sing along in the same vein of confidence

And I can give a hundred more where people do actually relate what is your point

You’re having like three different conversations

Drake actively s***s on the lifestyle that yall live.

Niggas be having a long time girlfriend, fiance or wife saying they relate to Drake. When he said in his lyrics yall lifestyle would make him miserable

"I said Drake's music is not relatable in fact he said it one time so no one is allowed to relate to his music anymore. Also when I made an encompassing blanket statement I didn't mean it also no one understands generalities anymore"

Nobody is saying that his music has to be relatable to be good, I’ve never agreed with that. Good music doesn’t have to be relatable.

What we’re saying is that Drake’s music recent music isn’t relatable, it has nothing to do with the quality of it
