It did the only criteria that matters for hit records: Damage in the Real World

Aug 5, 2025·4 repliesNgl...Nokia has to be the most gassed up hit record of all time.
It's good. Don't get me wrong. And it is indeed a viral hit.
But the song ain't even doing the same damage as Rich Baby Daddy, Rich Flex, Knife Talk, Jimmy Cooks, and LNCL from this decade.
Yet niggas here act like it's God's Plan 2.0 or One Dance 2.0 just because it went viral on Tik Tok or is arguably Drake's catchiest club hit this decade aside from RBD.
I don't know if it's the beef that's driving people to overhype it's dominance but, comparatively speaking, even Like This, Carnival, and Houdini from Eminem were streaming at a faster rate than Nokia last year.
Only 380 million Spotify streams in 6 months yet KTT2 gaslit me into thinking that this was Drake's biggest hit since Scorpion. In the words of Mark Morrison "You lieeeeed tooo meeeee!"

And there are millions of people in the country that have no idea what SOMEBODY LOVES ME is
Probably, doesn't take away its impact. There are country songs with 2 billion streams but you play that in certain cities and it's a non starter

Spot on. Nobody is saying NOKIA is a bad song, or that it wasn’t popular for a moment in time, we just want some honesty about its overall performance that’s all. The song is not as big as these online stans will have you believe it is

Ngl brah it’s just dead one of the best drake songs ever made and he fumbled the release. If this was the lead single to iceman at the beginning of the summer and not in February with a black and white video it woulda went insane. Copium and too quick of the draw, but overall an amazing song that had the potential fr. Like 10/10 song

Yeah...the song is good.
I just was shocked that it didn't dominate as much as I thought it did.
But yeah....So far, $$$ is looking to be a better era than Iceman.
Iceman seems so aimless that I wouldn't be shocked if it gets turned into a mixtape or playlist like More Life.

I like WDIM a lot but I hope the whole album won't be just tracks about him acting unfazed from the beef last year. I like Which One too but its probably better off as a loosie

The lack of domination came 100% from putting this song that is clearly out of place on sss, it was really like smoking too early in da day brah shoulda waited till the work was done
Ngl I think iceman is interesting, the singles imo are like cool (I really like the central cee song and think he shoulda led with that) but yea it is all over the place. Wonder what he’s gonna do, I just hope brah drop dat dope we need it

Ngl you right. He shouldve saved Nokia for Iceman

I guarantee there’s a genuine hit record too somewhere on Iceman, yet he chose to go with two commercial stinkers are the first two singles
Idk why him and his team have been so horrendous at choosing singles post-Scorpion. It’s like they used all the black magic in the world to choose the singles for that album

What did I miss shoulda been give me a hug

I have teared up listening to Nokia I can’t believe the entire world isn’t dancing to this song at the same time. I have spent a lot of my creative career indirectly into working for dreamcrew (or pglang) and I think I’m ready and the owls need me I’m finna go send some messages on linked in
We can never let this happen again.

I don't if Drake has a team who makes this decision or its him but his single choices haven't been good for a while now. Even with FATD

Whoa whoa, if it's one thing even the most hardcore drake stans will agree to is some.singles they push are the wrong choice, die trying should have been pushed
