    It does have something to do with Drake because the original debate started with someone saying everyone flopped besides Drake.

    If you’re not saying Bia is a big artist then why bring her up? My original comment was that barely any big name rappers dropped this year.

    And you gotta stop it with this BIA is a mainstream artist. Her label has tried to push her and failed but she is not a mainstream artist. That’s why this whole BIA s*** is really laughable to me cause I’m from around here she’s from, she could walk downtown nobody would know who she was

    My original post was not in defense of Drake, nor did it even mention Drake. Your mind is just warped and twisted to believe anytime I post anything, it must have something to do with Drake and that's on you, not me.

    My original post didn't even quote you, nor was it a response to you. It was a response to Fader saying barely any mainstream rappers had dropped albums this year. That's why I listed off a bunch of albums by mainstream rappers released this year. I even directly quoted what he said below the list. You jumped in and quoted me twice like I was attacking you when I wasn't even talking about you.

    And no matter how much you wanna make a case against it, BIA IS mainstream. It's fine if you don't understand what the word means but stop insisting it only means someone who is massively commercially successful because you couldn't be more wrong. That woman has multi-platinum hits to her name. Songs that also did well on multiple radio formats. She has mainstream access and exposure. Her albums flopping doesn't negate any of that, especially in a climate where most albums are flopping and I could give a damn that you're from her city. None of that negates my point.

    Summer went from 166k with her last, to 64k 😬

    It's all downhill from here.

    Bia is less successful than multiple underground rappers but because a label unsuccessfully pushes her that means she’s a mainstream artist? lol that’s laughable.

    Divine is being disingenuous.

    In any other context, she would clown most of the artists she named for not being successful.

    Now all of a sudden they’re mainstream acts because niggas is talking about Drake

    Carti album doing really well. His fanbase gravitating to different songs on the album which is why some make the album smaller than it is

    Not true. Cardi’s album did this first.

    Pretty much any tour that grossed an insane amount of money either lasted for years or did a lengthy number of shows

    Out of the 16 tours to ever gross $500M+, only three of them did so with less than 100 shows

    It’s one tour for three separate albums, and he has not been touring consistently since 2022 there were numerous breaks in between the legs:

    He didn’t do any shows from December 2022 to June 2023

    Zero shows from November 2023 to October 2024

    Literally only four shows in all of 2024 (October)

    Zero shows from November 2024 to May 2025

    And then zero shows from September 2025 to April 2026

    You making it sound like he’s been touring every single month since July 2022
