ehh....I get where you're coming from but it's not realistic.
Breh, you know how pop works. It's a cannibalistic genre. It feeds off the authenticity of other genres and waters it down, but still needs a shred of credibility. Drake knows that if he doesn't have any credibility, he can't navigate urban pop. Up until 15 years ago, we actually believed hip hop would never get co-opted. and as delusional as we were, we were also onto something. The genre at some point was so damn real that it's taken decades to water it down.
Also, it's our/underground hip hop artists' fault that we allow hopscotching. If 'real hip hop' artists of today were actually making that potent, brilliant shyt, a guy like Drake wouldn't have survived this long. Remember that LL had to do tracks with credible hip hop artists to stay live. And LL can fukking rap. He can easily outrap Drake. My point is, the underground kept him on his toes. And the sound kept changing, which made it harder for the fake to keep up. Between 93 to 97 was a huge change in sound. Rap still sounds like it did in 2011 for the most part.
Underground rap is so garbage that, a lot of times, it's trying to be Drake. or some half-baked notion of what 'real hip hop' was 20 years ago. Both of these weak-minded underground scenes allow Drake to maneuver in and out comfortably.
