At one point I kind of understood it as ok...he's their Jay. Like remember when a lot of dudes entire public image and persona was based around whatever Jay was telling you was cool/not cool? I def remember dudes dressing like Drake, bumping his shyt. 30 year dudes was out here partying with 18yo girls or bumping Drake from the whip trying to get them lmao. And he had tracks at that time that were in line with what a dude would want to fukk with. NWTS era type shyt that was bumping out whips.

But at this point, years into a clear musical decline where less and less tracks are for dudes? I don't get it at all. It feels like the final years of G-Unit stans who would talk nonstop about Soundscan numbers or who was hot/not based on sales. Remember when grown ass men would be hyping those wack ladies tracks 50 kept pushing out before he flopped lol? The music is borderline irrelevant at this point, he's just the avatar they live through vicariously. And I think this weird Twitch streaming era is perfect for this behavior, because it's just a bunch of dudes watching "cool" guys hang with bytches, ride in nice cars, go on vacations etc.
Remember the Curtissssss Stanleys talking about Animal Ambition like when the chronic came out lol. Did he ever even relase that shyt ?

Lemme hit you with a theory I told my brother. Ask yourself why is Joe Budden (pre-beef), Ish, Mal, Math Hoffa, and a host of dusty dudes always on the Drake bandwagon. Drake was the last mainstream rapper they fukked with aesthetically and he allowed them access to younger scenes, parties, hoes etc. He has a flow, had dope beats and was taking money shyt on records. If you were 32 in 2012 he was your last chance to relate to college age kids and fukk young girls.

These guys weren’t trying to hear Cole rap about losing his virginity or Kendrick rap about west coast shyt. Drake was the closest to Jay in terms of shyt talking, and the closest to 50 in terms of sales. And they could bump it while looking for (young) hoes. This also explains why none of these guys like any new rap and complain about the game being down because Drake is down lol.

My theory is that it's much simpler. I think OVO puts money into these streamer's hands directly. We saw during the battle how Drake was plugging in with the top streamers. Even that What's The Beef dude ended up having an OVO insider after he started blowing up. A few have talked about Drake sending them stuff or flat out paying them. So I think a lot of these dudes is on the payroll.

If not that then it goes kind of to your angle in that they look at Drake like that's how they'd carry it if they were to reach that superstar level. All the women, the gambling, the partying, using his power behind the scenes to fukk with his ops. While Kendrick is more low key and behind the scenes and ain't moving like that. Same with Cole.

Not just streamers but a good chunk of hip-hop social media pages on Facebook were on the payroll pushing Drake propaganda

I mentioned it a while back but I always got this vibe that he's not all that smart from his interviews. Like he's legit a dumbass and a lot of his decisions reinforce this. Or just having jealous bytch tendencies against kendrick. The fact kendrick was getting crowned the best rapper, Mc should've not effected him at all with him being the most commercially successful rapper. The fact he knew his truth that he didn't write his own raps and still had an issue with kendrick being labeled a better Mc etc shows the size of his ego.
☝🏿
Minus all the record label branding and marketing, crodie IS a legit dumbass. I mean straight up stupid. It's really obvious whenever you hear him speak in any unscripted situation, the boy's an idiot.
