    There’s been a very clear media bias in hip hop about drakes music for like 10 years at least. Maybe not everywhere but large media companies academies etc obviously show and have shown a huge bias. Kendrick has basically been held up as the “anti drake” his entire career

    That doesn’t mean that millions of people think Kendrick is Jesus Christ who can do no wrong just because they like him better, it’s just rap.

    Social media takes current events and exaggerates them by 100 million, you should never get emotional over engagement farming

    I would say more brother. I'm willing to bet 550k-600k. B/c Drake drops music regularly and there's no pent up anticipation that awaits his releases. His next one does b/c its off this rap beef that saw him 'take an L' and more so people feel created a dent in his reputation so its more so anticipation to see his response. Kendrick doesn't drop music often, he takes his time and off Mr Morales which didn't do that well streaming wise initially - this supposed 'W' has catapulted him into a different tier. Yes its temporary b/c he's nowhere close to Drake in stardom but for the moment, he's practically 'borrowed' fans through Drake haters to all tune in and push streams of his next album by at least 40%+ than his typical numbers. That's what the trends show. I could be wrong of course but regardless, Drake has to get back into that Views type of promotional bag.

    You right Kendrick next album will easily sell more than drake based off media being on his side and the anticipation of more drake disses from drake haters…

    Hate to say it but drake is anticipated but not as much as Kendrick next album

    That’s why drake releasing joke and dance songs is confusing to me because I don’t think him and his team realizes that lazy s*** for every album after views is not gonna work

    I absolutely don't think it's a reflection of an entire fanbase (I'm a Kendrick fan and have been for a decade) but I do think it's a reflection of a not insignificant and very vocal subsection of his fanbase, yes.

    Who? You think Joe Budden and whatever other viral tweet is a reflection of the everyday person just waking up and going to work every day?

    F*** that deadbeat. Drake is a clown if he ever links up with him.

    Lmao y’all don’t remember Drake said he was upset about the future stuff on FM? They definitely will leave it up and link in the future.

    Yeah, its nothing to do with whose the better artist. Its just a matter of how much 'fans' he's borrowed from the 'i hate drake' pool of people + his own fans dried out with no actual music from him. Those two groups of people is going to catapult Kendrick's album to secure his biggest first week sales ever.

    I'm assuming Kendrick's team leaked it to bait drake to put a bar or verse about Kendrick using a reference track and then Kendrick would just be like haha there's no reference track dumbass and it'd damage drake's creditability again. If there is a reference track and there's chatter about it, then it'd get leaked.

    Future didn’t call him a pedo or anything and might not even known about Kendrick’s plan.

    You also don’t remember Drake linking up with Meek after a worse stain on his career (comparing to future not Kendrick)?

    Idk it’s okay to not agree with me but I bet we see future and Drake link in the future. It genuinely sounded like Drake was upset about the future situation.

    No, obviously not, that's why I said vocal SUBSECTION of his fanbase.

    Nah the elimination of drake is enough for me but I’m from New York and we always take stuff more seriously than Canadians so who knows 🤷🏿‍♂️…. It just comes off as wild soft to me and man with no principles that’s all.

    You probably right but if it was me I couldn’t do it… my name and reputation is all I have and you tried to take that from me

    Maybe. Its possible but Future is much much closer with Metro than he is with Drake. So if Future was to patch things up with Drake, I'd assume Metro patches it up with Drake too. Future is 40, his music is going soon hit the Eminem/Lil Wayne cliff syndrome in terms of replay value and freshness in the next four years. Drake's always able to find new breathes of music, different pockets, new styles, and genres - he'll be fine. But I agree, it sounded like " damn you really let this guy convince you to turn on me? "
