a lot of people like to dance
drake dance album flops
makes you think
This is why JIK didn’t sell well
Kanye’s fanbase post 2010 has been overrun by white hipsters. The most dangerous kind of people because they can hide their passive racism behind a thin veneer of faux-progressivism. So there’s two things going on here.
A) they prefer “artsy” hip hop because that is more comfortable for their white, indie music sensibilities. JIK is a raw gospel album - a historically black genre of music - and isn’t quirky enough and doesn’t have any Bon Iver features so naturally they want nothing to do with it. B) Even tho they’ll never admit it, they prefer their black entertainers to be wilding out making fools of themselves - as long as it doesn’t offend their liberal proclivities. They can’t stand seeing a black man search for meaning and positivity in his life. This reaction is further exacerbated because it’s explicitly religious music. I’m an atheist but many of these edgy types think religion is a purely evil thing which can’t possibly be a source for some people to grow, change, and better themselves which is false.
So it’s a combination of casual liberal racism and people simply not being actual hip hop fans (which is a byproduct of said racism)
No it’s cause it was s*** and recorded on an iPhone mic
he 100% will if drake doesnt drop a full album again this year lol
doja cat if she drops this year will be (and yes she’s a rapper)

Damn right on the nose
Oh NOW you want to listen to him? But when he called More Life a playlist you were dismissing his words? Got it.
Lucky me, people that don't f*** with me
Are linkin' up with people that don't f*** with me to f*** with me 🗣🗣🗣
Drake said it best
they always forget about that
It'll be very interesting when Drake's next rap album drops. That's all I'll say lol.

this is something i say all the time about the hipsters on this site and i get crucified and hung for it
Posting in threads like this is such a dopamine rush bc u can say the dumbest s*** and get 10 likes still
CLB didn't either and doubled what Kendrick's big comeback album did. Levels are clear to everyone.
Bro CLB had nothing but gimmicks leading up to it
Kendrick legit had nothing until Heart 5
MMATBS and HN is a good comparison you just lost
Some of yall really don’t have nothing going on in your lives and it tells, I’m glad y’all finally can happy with something
I’m out, boutta bump drakes album with real people

It almost sold 300k and this is very good for a gospel album lol

Drake said it best
Ain't u a Wayne stan tho? U linking up with the 6 boyz cause he was on young money lol
Kendrick fans should hold tight. By the end of the year Drake will outstream Kendrick easily and having his album come out earlier with proper promo etc is gonna be a bad look when the other guy dropped a whole other genre.
TAKE OFF THEM FABRICTE STREAMS AND THEM MICROWAVE MEMES
First Drake album with no memes and it flops, coincidence?
will drake do a rock album next?/w_600/machine-gun-kelly-mainstream-sellout.jpeg
For Whom the Bell Tolls soon

drake family
No it’s cause it was s*** and recorded on an iPhone mic
Kanye’s music has always had messages of finding one self and revealing injustice towards black people and he still got the attention of said white hipsters
