Wrong and loud, as always with you

Y'all heard something?
- Oct 24, 2023
- Oct 24, 2023Mmm Hmm
The thing with Drake is
He's built up so much of a rep where he will always get play no matter what as long as the music isn't mysterious or massively different like HNVM or demo tapes was.
His core regardless
He will always sell above 300k
Even when he puts out horrible singles like way 2 sexy clb came thru with 600kEven a very divisive single like slime
Got him 400kDrake doesn't really need a smash anymore because he's Drake
As long as he puts out jack of all trades music he will stay in his anomaly bag
I wouldn't put em with Drake at all
Em selling less than 300k and that was in 2020
He's not hitting 300k + anymore unless he has a certified smash
But prob has a guaranteed 150k fanbase
Can't really say this about Drake because the music industry is drastically changing. We'll have to wait and see how well he sells throughout the rest of the decade.

Hotline Bling is a bonus song that was released a year before the album came out, but sure.
One Dance, yes.
Controlla is big but not on the level of any of the four big singles from Graduation.
And Too Good absolutely not.
What does it being a bonus song matter? Travis Scott released Butterfly Effect on May 15, 2017 and added it to Astroworld, which was released on August 3, 2018. Bad Bunny released Callaíta on May 31, 2019 and added it to Un Verano Sin Ti, which was released on May 6, 2022. Hotline Bling was released on July 31, 2015 and was added to Views, which was released on April 29, 2016. Of all 3 examples, Hotline Bling/Views has the shortest timespan.
Also, by every conceivable metric, One Dance, Hotline Bling, Controlla and Too Good are all huge singles. One Dance/Hotline Bling are Diamond-certified smash hit records that both peaked in the top 2 of the Hot 100. Controlla has almost 800M streams on Spotify and has moved almost 7M units in the US while Too Good has 1B streams on Spotify and has moved almost almost 8M units in the US.
How those don't register as huge singles, I don't know, but you've got it, as always.

You gonna sit here and act like Controlla and Too Good are anywhere near as iconic as songs like Stronger, Good Life, Flashing Lights, and Can’t Tell Me Nothing?
Is that really where we find ourselves right now?
