i'll stick with :patrice:and add :what:

you act like hip hop fans are not excited whenever a big name drops. this ain't exclusive to drake.
when cole dropped his last project, it was huge. and so was k.dot's album.
what i'll give you is that drake is more popular and that is it.
:skip:drake making a more artistic album than kendrick!!

as far as the coli goes, drake ain't the only one hated/stanned on here,so miss me with that!!
i've seen your countless threads on kendrick
(an artist that you apparently don't value, but still went out of your way to find out what his album sounded like just to bytch and moan about it)

mixed reaction from fans and haters (some of his fans not feeling this was a surprise)
mixed reaction from critics will follow(nothing new about this. drake makes safe music.his music will never be loved universally.fact)
:camby:

Don't play dumb. Drake is THE biggest rapper in the world and has been for at least 5 years now. You already know more people give a fukk (heads and 'unwashed' alike) than Cole and Kendrick. Stop it. Anticipation for Drake vs Kendrick/Cole occur on totally different levels.

Drake has a fair number of songs that shyt on Kendrick's discog artistically. Which is why the Sprite commercial hurt and confused feelings. Drake is an album artist just like Kendrick is an album artist. To pretend otherwise is to be delusional.

Kendrick makes dumber music than Drake, and that's the cold truth. Miss me with the rest of your santana.

Impressive numbers in this day and age but dude has pop crossover appeal so it's not surprising. If a rapper like Kendrick or Cole had these numbers, I'd be more impressed because they arent commercial in this day and age. Think back to how raw 50 was when GRODT & TM came out? He was massive where most of GRODT was about killing killing, money hoes and more killing of murder inc. hell Wayne built his buzz of off rap features in 2006-2008 before he caught everybody off guard with lollipop in 2008. Drake is pop rap at its finest

Does everyone realize no one buys albums anymore?

Everyone in my office, who is 24-35, streams spotify or apple

Buying albums is a thing of the past

But getting a billion streams off of one song (hotline bling) is absurd

Getting 630k worth of sales in one day is absurd...and I believe that is not including hotline bling

Give the man his props, he has the game in the chokehold, commercially
