Is Drake really losing favor from the public? He last three songs have more dislikes than likes.

For this to be happening to Family Matters is some straight up hate.

You still out the window on this breh?

Lucien got bills to pay! He ain't getting no time off. Prolly has to record a duo album with Sexy Red by August

Lowkey Kanye had one of the more important bars of this saga....

I felt it was solid. Even real solid in parts. But it was a bit all over the place too

Do u think it deserved HATE? U have criticisms which is cool. I have criticism for every single song in this battle. On both sides. But people are clearly just tired of Drake. Or really LOVE Kendrick.

Roughly a month. It dropped 9/11 and was platinum by 10/16.

So around the same amount of time as BP2 took

Surprising but not nearly as shocking as Drake.

It's not just being white, white guys have had careers in rap. Like you said Eminem, and Beastie Boys were huge.

But Eminem and Beastie Boys pretty much leaned into to his white audience heavily. Sure they had black fans, but not like Drake.

Drake really had street nikkas, white people, college kids, women, high schoolers, 9 to 5ers etc...all fukking with him. He had everybody fukking with his music. Every club, house party, outside function they playing Drake. Nobody playing no Eminem or Beastie Boys at no outside events, at least none that I'm going to lol. Maybe some white frat parties, but that's about it.

Come on now. You way smarter than that. There is no way Drake is more of a shocker than Eminem. Eminem blew up in an era where DMX and Jay Z were huge, No Limit was still ticking, and CMR was blowing up. You're telling me you saw the "My Name Is..." video and thought Eminem would not only go on to have two diamond albums and be mentioned among the greatest rappers of all time. This all with the content he had.

And the fact that you mention how nobody outside was playing Eminem further hurts your case.

A white boy who called black people the n word on record is still one of the biggest rappers ever and gets respect from all his peers. All of this shyt is performative at this point. Lol.

Look what I said on the last page about Eminem. Eminem pretty much is lifted by his race.

Nobody was playing Eminem at functions, he's not fully embraced by all types

Drake literally had hood nikkas to women to 9 to 5ers. In the last decade you couldn't go to a club or house party without hearing Drake outside. He was fully embraced by all walks of life in Hip Hop in a way Eminem never was. nikkas never played an Eminem set in the clubs or parties full of black people.

Eminem never held that type of weight among US as a whole. And you know what I mean by US.

Do u think it deserved HATE?

That's a good question and I think it depends on how you feel about his missteps. That 'free the slaves' line was God awful... I can see hating on the track just for that.

There are 11 Drake related threads on the first page of The Booth right now.

UMG ain't gonna let that happen.

Drake losing favor

U my everything might debut top 5 with the word around it and we're talking fall offs.

Since we're having this conversation what's the metric gonna be when Kendrick next project sells 2X less than drake when He "won" the battle right?

At one point Em was everywhere. Black people def fukked wit Em up until after the 8 Mile soundtrack.

I've heard a few different Em songs in the club. The one with Nate Dogg and the one with Akon come to mind. Lol

Yea unless something else incriminating drops Drake will be fine

His legacy though that's what interest me more ...how will we look back at his career and time on top
