The industry is really crazy. It’s all marketing and gimmicks. And it’s even worse now with social media dj the internet tied into it. I know sumn was up when 4Batz did a deal wit OVO of all labels. Like them niggas don’t got enough artist they could share some engagement bots for

Business is business I guess

still don't negate my point tho. market cap is around what I said before. he got paid 500 million and you assuming he put all that back into them to own 0.63% and you believe he is calling shots over there?

What do YOU love? Do you decide to search or does it come to you, Kenny, I search for your music goat I remember flows in idle moments, they can buy your s*** and change public perception oh God man, but I search for it it's not the game we love anymore

@op add that article to your op

He's not really snaking anyone though lol

Him sending a cease and desist to French aint a big deal

These Drake Stan’s gotta be the biggest d*** riders in history

The implications some of this has are crazy and y’all really just saying “BOSS S***, KENDICK LOST”

BOSS S***. KENDRICK LOST

Stop there's a billboard article saying this now?! Lmaoo

Oh right. That’s my whole thing with drake promoting artists.

You can make strong argument he’s doing for the money and not because he thinks that music should be in the forefront

I can't respect these f***s , there's a principle

wilding

Hov did the same thing but he sold his friends out in the process

im crine so basically every single drake lyric that people used to say "WE DONT KNOW WTF U TALKIN BOUT BRO"

every single one is coming true

lyrics really DO begin to piece themselves together over time periods

Never said he put it all back. But he’s a revenue driver for them so yes he gets to call some shots.

Lebron sells out the arena so he gets to call some shots

yall this nigga has lost it

Because drake is the perfect person to live vicariously through and the whole illusion of capitalism is that you can make it to the top so you can be the one taking advantage of those on the bottom

I’m convinced that if 4k footage of Drake whipping an enslaved child came out they’d be like “Nah he’s really the goat for that, Y’all just jealous”

The title of the article:

Even If Drake Loses the Kendrick Lamar Battle, Here’s Why He Already Won the War

I ain’t read the whole OP yet lol so imma come back and give my real two cents. But if I was an artist that worked wit Drake, and I find out he got cut in on a deal where he’s profiting off my work without any collab or input from him. And I’m signed to his label.. I would feel a way

Insane

From "Baby divides the pie" to evil industry puppet master is amazing I must say

It’s the same reason upper level sales people get paid 300k and end up become ceo. When you bring the money in you get to call shots
