why is drake popular?

[evasive]

People (not from the hood) relate more to Drake's lyrics more than any other rapper. He raps/sings about women/relationships because it's a universal topic.

Think about it.

How many people relate to these rappers rapping about busting guns/selling drugs?

Dude what do you expect?
They are trying to change Hip Hop and make it more feminine

Is it a coincidence that the most feminine artist that isnt' really a rapper but more R&B yet won hip hop album of the year signed to Young Money where Lil Wayne wears women's clothing and kisses Baby on the lips?

Do you really think that's a coincidence

Wayne is the correct answer to why he's popular, or at least AS popular as he is.

Corny effeminate males the suburbs breed finally have representation in a genre they've long loved but has always shun and ridiculed em

Because he makes excellent music. Can't be denied at this point.

I will say that he's yet to drop a great album. Mixtape Drake was on some other shyt though
