Before some of you scoff at this idea, Drake has an knack for copying and reiterating what Jay Z does. Jay did Tidal and sold it, I could see Drake taking all this time to learn how to make a better Tidal that actually would compete. Idk. Far fetched stuff but I find the sheer possibility of this super fascinating.
It's a big undertaking. First of all the big names still have a hard time making a profit worthwhile. We've see a lot of places like Datpiff and Mixtape websites s*** down. MTV shut down, no one wants to buy Complex, etc. No one's really going to the theaters anymore, there's a huge discussion to be had about people not paying for art anymore and that has a lot of factors on why that is
But to stay on topic I could see Drake wanting to, for controls sake but will he actually do it? I have a feeling 100gigs was more than anyone has suggested. That in itself had a lot of planning and might have been a big undertaking for Drake. There's a reason we haven't seen anyone else try something like this. It could have been a test run to see how he would handle a small scale multimedia website with music + videos
It was probably very expensive and it's only been a day and a half. It's not cheap to maintain that especially without ads, not even Spotify could survive without them. I think 100gigs will be down by the time we get the album and Drake will have used the experience as a way to judge if he really wants to get into this. Even if we assume he's a billionaire a streaming platform is going to eat a huge chunk of that fortune before he ever starts breaking even
F*** a new album, give us all these loosies
Is that a CLB loosie?
yo but real talk what's the move behind drake taking downloads OFF? he knew the moment he posted the link that people were gonna spread the content like wildfire across every platform.. so what gives? he's not the type of guy who wouldn't want u to download it all of a sudden, it definitely feels like he/his team is uploading more stuff and downloads are temporarily paused
This is what I thought as well
I believe him and Future The Prince still executively produce Euphoria
Ahhh true but HBO doesn't really care about music streaming would they? who knows tho. I just think all this beef s*** is pushing him into a headspace where he says f*** these platforms i'll do it my own way. And he talked a little bit about it on THP6 referencing to streaming data. then he double backed on the streaming plays/bots on the stake chat. AND he posted that robot ig story too.
yup i posted the total gig count earlier, i think @LongLiveHipHop was on top of that even before me. Interesting. He wouldn't call it 100gigs and put up ~87 gb. Huge difference. Something has to be getting uploaded rn + that audio file IG story pretty much confirms it. I'd be shocked if nothing happens tmw night.
100GIGSFORYOURHEADTOP
85.6 GBs
40 Folders
1,020 Files
1 file (46.8 MBs) is __VLC%20FOR%20MAC.dmg (MAC file so I don't know)

Thoughts on boardwalk empire? Going to borgata next week to vibe for weekend and rewatching. First szn was so good lol

Very levelheaded take. Love this. You're right its probably expensive as f***. Ngl though, the website layout is beautiful. Funny, the website originally kind of gave me the Okliar website where it had the Kendrick alleged Hard Rock EMT video LOL. Feels like the same designer/website developer made both sites
But fasho, we'll see how it plays out, I feel like he's in a period of A/B testing things and seeing what works and what doesn't. No one knows the long game he's playing other than him.


F*** a new album, give us all these loosies

Just not the same after pretty boy got offed end of season 1
That said it stays good till about the last season
Season 3 jumps the shark and gets over the top but has by far my favorite villain of the whole show. This mf gyp rosetti is a sick man with sick thoughts but he's the shows goat
