    Drake hasn’t had a solo hit since 2018 let’s talk about it

    Toosie Slide is what? What's Next is what? Search & Rescue is what? Focus on celebrating Kanye finally getting at hit after 10+ years

    So it’s Kanye’s fault that he released an album when the entire industry is down? As it has been for the past year?

    all of these are relativey recent and to act like there was some major change is delusional.

    No, they didn't. They were all chart/radio hits that have sold millions of units in the US.

    Kanye gets his first hit since Obama's first presidential term and now his fans won't shut up. Yikes lmao.

    Who cares? He's still the one driving the traffic on all those songs, like he does on every song he on and more importantly, he's the lead artist on those songs and he never stopped scoring hits, which is the point.

    Kanye is getting his first hit (solo, co-lead or feature) since over 10 years and you're here trying to talk s*** about Drake and his hit-making abilities. Do you know how stupid you're coming across right now?

    He’s a name brand at this point. Whatever he drops will have traction.

    I’m just saying he hasn’t had a solo smash record in years. The biggest songs on CLB & For All the Dogs are not big because of him

    More like 7x Platinum eligible. Most of his songs from this decade are still under-certified.

    Drake is the platform, that doesn’t mean he’s the reason the song becomes a hit (2018-now)

    You're a clown for that last sentence. Slime You Out is SZA's only #1 debut and it just so happens to be a Drake song, the person with the most #1 debuts ever. First Person Shooter is J. Cole's first #1 hit and first #1 debut and it just so happens to be a Drake song. IDGAF is Yeat's highest-charting song ever and one of his biggest hits yet. Rich Baby Daddy is Sexyy Red's highest-charting song and one of her biggest hits yet. The common denominator on all those songs is Drake.

    You're crazy for saying his biggest songs aren't because of him when the featured artists on those songs can never reach those same heights by themselves.

    That's not what I said, dimwit. You seem to lack simple reading comprehension.

    Why can’t those artists reach those heights by themselves? Because whose name isn’t attached? Meaning what?
