Drake is one of the worst people in not only hip hop but the entire music industry today.....and most people won't truly realize how horrible he was until a few decades have passed and it doesn't matter anymore

If the facts arent altered people are going to look at Drake as one of the biggest fukk boys in history. Or on the other hand in reality where the winners write history he is probably going to go down as a legend. Really interested in how it turns out

I've been already starting to realize it since thecoli brought me to senses. I can't look at him the same way anymore or listen to his music the same Because in the back of my head that "did he really write this?" Still lingers in my head. Which sucks because he has some real personal songs that are so relatable but it's not the same when you listen to those songs and know he didn't write him. Those aren't his feelings and thoughts your connecting to, it's someone else's he's passing off as his own.

I enjoy some of his music but it's obvious that he's not trying to have anyone pop off and be equal to or better than him. There's a reason he's still mad Weeknd is successful on his own, never gave Tory the "co-sign", doesn't really push Party's records that much, etc.

nikka like a chick with a bunch of ugly friends just so she can stand out and make herself feel better.

I agree this is the situation but disagree that this is actually how Drake thinks.

He doesn't deserve that much credit, its his CAMP that won't allow a bigger push to outshine their meal ticket. I mean look at Drake.. He came into the game real timid and still shows these characteristics outside of music. He's simply a corporate entity

I thought this was known?


Same reason why ILOVEMAKONNEN fell off after joining OVO.

The Weeknd was smart and saw through the bullshyt.

can ILOVEMAKKONEN fall off if he has never really fall on?

That's the point of Hip Hop though. To push someone who could potentially be your successor. Where would we be if artists of the past did this whole "don't push anyone with serious potential " shyt?

when did rappers ever push their homies with serious potential tho?

thats a rarity in itself.

rappers put on their homies, cuz they wanna help get their family/crew/hood eatin

if rappers only put on homies with potential, the rap game would be way different, in a good way
