UPDATE: Views number 1 *8th week

[Rembrandt]

Breh I'm not even saying to get rid of all that. I'm saying it technically shouldn't be here. But it is, aight cool.

But we don't really need a thread talking about "Drake still selling, The Coli is out of touch!"....when The Coli at large just don't care enough to to notice something like this. Adele sold a lot and is everywhere too....should I shame people for not knowing that, or caring about it?

To expand on the Wrestlemania analogy it would be like a thread in The Film Room claiming everyone is out of touch because they don't care Wrestlemania 32 broke records. Nah....just nobody in there cares about that shyt. Nor would they care who watched it, or potentially know anybody that did.

Fred.

that's a terrible analogy. you're a weird drake hater. let me know when Wrestlemania makes acclaimed films. For that analogy to work, it would mean Drake has never rapped or his catalogue isn't full of rap songs.

So besides the 3 biggest songs off the album....the rap songs are bigger. Sound logic there.

Fred.

on a 20 song album that gets hate for not being a "rap" album, it is.

 

[Tommy Sheppard]

Only songs I have heard from the album in Brooklyn is one dance and controlla.

you can same the same for anybody in any city who dosent listen to drake, those are 2 of the biggest songs out right now.

I really don't hang around many females, I'm out there handling my business 90% of the time, if it's not that then maybe I'm doing sports or reading or trying to come up or better myself in some sort of way.

The last black female I spoke to though was listening to Chance the rapper. The last black woman I spoke to was talking about Kendrick and is a Erykah Badu fan, idk I'll ask her next time I see her, she's in her late 40's so iont even know if she'd give af about drakes ah. My mother is black as well, and I haven't heard her mention Drake once, she hasn't even listened to Take Care, sooooooooooooooooooooo idk what you're talking about breh.

I'm not sure you're making but just for the banter..

"I keep up. I think right now, who's got the current swing with the youth: Missy Elliott and Drake. Everybody else is ok."

Slick Rick.

I mean fair enough, but what he eat's don't make me crap.

I don't follow trends, I don't follow the youth, the youth follows people who worship drugs, the youth loves po'ing up. I don't, I like hip hop and I enjoy the banter in here, but 90% of the new music that get's made, I don't listen to it.

The youth is lost, congrats to Rick though. I always wondered how he kept money with a career like his.

He doesn't have acclaimed albums so what point are you trying to make?

His shyt is B- on down to D+ on Metacritic. He's about as middle of the road critically as you can get.

I'm talking about his latest album. The biggest songs off it aren't rap. Critics are comparing him to Taylor Swift and Beyonce. Come on The Coli....fools are asking why rap fans aren't doing cartwheels over it. It's not rocket science.

Nah. I'm saying besides the joints that dropped before the album and had more weeks to stream, the rap singles are performing better.

You got 8 rap songs off of Views charting and you wondering why the album should be discussed in a rap forum? Don't see your logic my nicca

Damn near his entire album is charting because of the new streaming rules.

If any of those rap songs hit #1, that's a different story. Which ain't likely because the first #1 in his entire career wasn't a rap song. Neither was his second closest, which was "Hotline Bling".

Fred.

 

[DeVanteSwing]

drake has an ovo camp that streams his album on repeat all day

 

[( ິΦᆺΦ)ິ°˚(✿ *҉ manko｡✧)]

I guess when the music is skippable af and boring, you gotta make threads about sales instead

 

[JordanwiththeWiz]

So many flavors in this album from Bangers to Simp anthems to Slow jams to shyt on em joints shyt just fit so many moods you can't box this joint into a corner

 

[Saiyajin]

yall make this too easy

Kendrick lamar is shorter than Ellen ???

Chart position /= topic of conversation.

Even songs like 2 Phones and Don't Mind are higher than Drake's songs and are barely discussed.

There isn't much conversation around Flo Rida's "My House" either.

I don't think anyone would say he's right about Missy so why would we say he's right about Drake?

 

[Ms. Elaine]

Did they update the album and make it good ?

they didn't ? why are you still making threads about that average album then ?

Are you trying to mock "haters" while being exactly as obnoxious about a non hip-hop album ?

Did Drake stans actually turn into that annoying-ass "sales means quality"-ass taylor swift fan-ass crowd ?

most of you dudes actin more female than that tryhard tranny @Ms. Elaine

Congratulations, you played yourself, bruh.

You think I'm a man and yet you stay thinking about me. [/QUOTE]

Drakes a pop artist, views is a Pop album doing POP numbers

What pop album/artist is selling like Drake/Views?

 

[Ms. Elaine]

Because this is a rap message board. I don't understand why this is so hard to grasp. Half the album had no rap on it. It dropped and got compared to "Lemonade" for Christ sake. Yes it's popular....no a rap message board has no reason to care about it being popular, any more than an Adele album. Which outsold "Views" with no streams....and no, I don't care about that, either.

Fred.

Don't you ever get tired of humiliating yourself?

You keep saying that this is a "rap" forum and yet you keep stalking a dude who you claim is a pop artist.

Your very presence in these threads is a continual self-ether.

Adele? Swift?
