Also he’s been canceled multiple times and then just buys his way back into your playlist, look at 2018 when he was cancelled after hiding a kid. He payed Spotify to put him up everywhere
This is why I loathe Drake fanboys. They continually support that repetitive and toxic bullsh*t music of his and unfortunately that has shifted the culture to a bad place.
You people are stupid I swear and hypocrites. Wouldn't you do what you think is the best for you? You want him to just be doing music without progress? Another man's food is another man's poison. So if you don't like his songs others do.
Well he makes good music, but now that we're learning more about him, it's all starting to hit differently. Should also mention that the culture was already in a bad spot well before he showed up
It's crazy how you can make millions of dollars and be on top in the hip hop industry, and someone can just come and dismantle your whole empire and break you down to nothing over night. I guess that's the price of fame 😂
None of those stepping stones forgot. Dead or alive they all remember his foot dude is a slime ball he’s a soft weak minded immature guy who doesn’t have a clue about “blackness” but wants to be accepted as black.
Imagine hiding behind your money starting shit but won’t fight. Cmon man that’s sucker shit he would send Chris brown a bottle that says I smashed your girl but won’t put his hands up with him.
Thank you for mentioning Taylor Swift. She is very much the same. Sticking to a formula that works for the fans, doing nothing to push the needle sonically and artistically. Her latest album TTPD is evident of that. The criticism towards her album (and to some degree her whole discography) is similar to the criticisms made towards Drake's discography in recent years.
@@Ross5252jkvddand that's exactly why music artist (and life in general) remain stagnant and mediocre. Just because ppl are doing it doesn't make a good thing. The music industry has been bleeding for a while now because of this formula.
@@ks_wallace2324you’re not a musician. You make very little sense. You can’t revolutionize a genre every time you release an album. Those moments are rare in music history. People have a personal style and they can perform within that style for as long as they choose to. No one gets mad at jazz musicians who chose to mostly perform standards. Not every jazz musician is concerned with atonal harmonic approaches and no time or key signatures, as jazz musicians in the “free jazz” space does. And that’s fine. If the music is sincere, performed well, and good, then that’s all that matters.
@@dfwherbie8814That’s a great point, and Drake’s music is not sincere or good. There’s a difference between having a style and doing the same thing over and over again. If I were to take another artist like Kendrick for example and I played a song of his from 2012 and then a song from 2022 you’d be able to tell that there is a clear progression and that these songs were recorded in different eras. You could say the same for Cole, Eminem, Jay Z, etc. Despite having a style, they can still evolve as artists. If I were to play you a song from Drake’s last 3 projects you wouldn’t be able to tell they were from different projects because there has been no progression in artistry. You don’t have to revolutionize the genre, but you should be trying to push yourself if the art actually matters to you. I don’t think jazz musicians who only play standards is a good comparison here. Those are people who have respect for the art and want to keep the classics alive vs a guy who has no respect for the culture that he bloodsucks and rides other peoples waves to remain relevant.
Thank you for this deep dive. I caught on to his "nice guy misogynistic b.s." early on in his career because lyrics are very important to me, so I always know the b.s. the b.s. he was selling the masses. It's a shame that most are just now catching on. Anyway, I'm glad he's finally reapong what he's sown for the misogynoir against Megan, Serena, Rihanna, and black women in general.
I don’t think his career is over but his image is damaged due to the claims Kendrick made in the diss about his associations to minors. He’s going to need a serious rebrand
Drake did that too himself. Kendrick didn't put any new information out there that wasn't already there. It was all going to come out sooner or later. Shit even Shane Gillis called it 5 years ago.
If I were him I would be on a 2 or 3 years hiatus and come back with a rebrand. He don't even need to do a lot, he needs to just go back to his 2009-2011 vibes, the hopeless romantic vibe, and stop trying to act tough and misogynistic. And also seek for some spiritual guidance and therapy to cut with the bs and see if he can mature a little
@@immagangstaX10 you didn’t lie at all. He did this to himself and I called this years ago. But with the way society is sadly set up, he will still have many fans. That’s why I said I don’t think his career is over. Personally, I “cancelled” Drake years ago
We are black men. We have endured scrutiny from every other race, so I wouldn't be surprised by opinions of us. I think it's wrong for Drake to ride our bandwagon then refer to us as "slaves". Was we "slaves" when Drake was jocking our style or does he think we just "slaves" so he can just steal our craft from up under us?
18:27 finally someone with a brain😂😂🙏 It's not a coincidence, I peeped that too. It was a culmination of media fueling some sorta "he's influenced by Drake" campaign (when in fact he sounds like Big Sean), his label taking that comparison and making it into his gimmick ("The New Drake", rushing his album to capitalize off that hype, and Drake himself with his "help" to stunt his growth and shine
Drake makes me mad tho fr , I hate him because he tries to embody what he thinks it’s like to be black . And since we said yes we have allowed people to basically make a mockery of us
But 50 Cent was still the same guy and respected the rules of hip hop. Drake is the biggest reason why a lot of hip hop fans that grew up during the 1990s and early 2000s completely checked out of hip hop for over a decade. The so-called biggest star in hip hop has a fanbase where most of his fans are not even hip hop fans. That wasn't the case with Run DMC, LL Cool J, Beastie Boys, Fat Boys, De La Soul, NWA, Kid 'n Play, A Tribe Called Quest, Snoop Dogg, Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Biggie, Tupac, DMX, Eminem, Ludacris, Lil Wayne, T.I. Kanye West. Drake is a parasite of hip hop and every parasite needs a host. In his case co signs from established figures in hip hop
@@goodfella1401 Yt ppl are the largest consumers of hip hop since the genre was commercialized. By far. It's not even close. HipHop hasn't been controlled by blk people since it became lucrative.
I’m 10 seconds in, but Drake’s debut album was NOT take care. It was technically Thank Me Later. His breakout debut project was So Far Gone, which was a “mixtape” that dropped in 2009. Btw it’s not fair to solely pick on suburban white kids; suburban black kids are just as disconnected to the core cultural tenants of HipHop. For example, a Dominican from the Bronx is more part of HipHop than a black kid who casually listens to rap from the suburbs. This is about culture. Not race. It is not our place to strip drake’s blackness. lol btw, that Yasiin Bey aka Mos Def clips is exactly what Kendrick was referring to when he said that drake makes music that “pacifies them”
Bro Drake is a Jew he was brought up outside the culture and thats a fact. Dominican people have their own culture, so why would they be closer to hip hop than a suburban black kid who literally is primarily around black culture. Even if u grow up in suburbs you have some uncles/cousins in the culture being directly involved with that on a day to day. Dominicans have a mom and dad that speak spanish so they have another culture they are familiar with and can fall back on. That black kid the culture is literally his. Its all he knows.

When 90’s artists brag about sales, they’re actually quantifying being plugged in. When this generation brags about sales, it’s about being widely appealing. The next question has to be - WHO is buying the music?
Cried after my first listen. Too afraid to go back. Young black boys need love and protection, instead are sexually abused constantly and stained in the streets.
Drake did exactly what Weezy told him not to do. Drake tried to live out other peoples lives instead embarrassing who he is. Wanksta used to have a picture of JaRule but has been updated with drakes pic
It’s not the end but I do think it’s ‘the beginning of the end’ he had an unprecedented run of commercial dominance which isn’t normal in any genre tbh, let alone hiphop. He’s going to be in the history books regardless. Ultimately what goes up must come down, even Michael Jackson music went into commercial decline at the tail end of his career. These rappers are all pushing 40 and rap is young man’s game. The only reason they haven’t been pushed out already is because today’s crop of rappers in their teens and 20s can’t compete with them.
It’s sad we known this for years but nobody says nothing til Kendrick pointed it out And Degrassi was the shit been watching it since middle school when he was on it 💪
Drake was rap's first pop star?? yeaaaaaa no .. i'd argue that MC Hammer was rap's first pop star ... the man sold over 25 million albums from ONE album alone ..
I’d argue that it was eminem, while he may be a rapper many people’s(especially while he was young)main critic of him was that he brought many pop elements into rap
How do you call Drake the most successful rapper of your generation when you are Gen Z and Drake is a Millennial. Those are literally 2 different generations. It's like calling Drake the best US-born rapper when he's from Canada. Get your facts straight! 👎
Dude started out as an actor, he's still acting today putting on different personas when the times call for it, he's a sheep trying to role-play a wolf
For all the women that cannot get this thru their heads, when you’re as successful as Drake is, he automatically becomes the price and you should be luck if you even get the chance to be in his presence. simple
Saying he emerged in black culture means that he more identifies with black culture because he feels he wasn't fully accepted amongst the Jewish community and/or white people.
He won't. Black ppl aren't the largest consumers of music anyway. Not even close. "Palatable music" for the masses is what sells. Purist Hip Hop IS NOT A COMMERCIAL PRODUCT. White people don't eat to hear about getting g the sl@v3s freed.
I’m not exactly trying to defend Drake but hip-hop has been notorious for being misogynistic specifically towards black women, so why is it a problem now all of a sudden??
1. One hit song from drake and everything is forgotten. And Drake makes Hit Songs more than any other rapper alive. 2. Hip-Hop become corporate during 50 cents era remember he made 150 mill from just vitamin water. 3. Drake is a product of hip-hop, from Nelly, JaRule, 50, Lil Wayne, JayZ he is the end result of Hip-hop commercial dominance. 4. If Drake was married women wouldnt hate him. Drake a Victim of being Rich Male & Single while black. 5. The industry hates Drake because he keeps winning, Universal gave him a 400 Mill deal while they have to fight for streaming scraps. 6. Every reason people hate drake all the other rappers do the same sh*t, like I don't understand, there nothing he does other rapper aren't the only difference is he got an army of hits behind him. 7. People say protect women, but when Drake says Kendrick did some DV all of a sudden no one cares.
I think any new artist is going to diss him for clout from here on out. Look at how not responding to Pusha T, resulted in Kendrick, and who will be next?

- I am know Take Care was not his debut. I forgot to edit that bit out.

10:51 MESSAGE. MIGHTY MOS seen it coming. Now we here…
Ironic that drake actually opened for mos def at some point smh he really did become pop tho
@@aeisha1491nah he’s rnb not pop or rap, it the only genre he has on literally every album
Sounds like you have some sort of vendetta with suburban white kids
We know listening comprehension is at an all time low but stay focused buddy.
I know y’all hate it but Drake ain’t going nowhere. JCOLE and Kendrick don’t drop enough and everyone else sucks.
He won't.
Black ppl aren't the largest consumers of music anyway. Not even close.
"Palatable music" for the masses is what sells.
Purist Hip Hop IS NOT A COMMERCIAL PRODUCT. White people don't eat to hear about getting g the sl@v3s freed.
I’m not exactly trying to defend Drake but hip-hop has been notorious for being misogynistic specifically towards black women, so why is it a problem now all of a sudden??
1. One hit song from drake and everything is forgotten. And Drake makes Hit Songs more than any other rapper alive.
2. Hip-Hop become corporate during 50 cents era remember he made 150 mill from just vitamin water.
3. Drake is a product of hip-hop, from Nelly, JaRule, 50, Lil Wayne, JayZ he is the end result of Hip-hop commercial dominance.
4. If Drake was married women wouldnt hate him. Drake a Victim of being Rich Male & Single while black.
5. The industry hates Drake because he keeps winning, Universal gave him a 400 Mill deal while they have to fight for streaming scraps.
6. Every reason people hate drake all the other rappers do the same sh*t, like I don't understand, there nothing he does other rapper aren't the only difference is he got an army of hits behind him.
7. People say protect women, but when Drake says Kendrick did some DV all of a sudden no one cares.
Couldn’t disagree more when you say drake made rap safe for surbabam white kids, I can’t even wrap my head around that statement
Their was eminem
Drakes career is far from over, he just lost a battle 😭.
I think any new artist is going to diss him for clout from here on out. Look at how not responding to Pusha T, resulted in Kendrick, and who will be next?
Yeah, you know you slow his career is beyond over. That’s why he’s not coming back to the states now.
@@kingfred6826 😂 I'm not slow I'm very intelligent but I digress. And he's definitely coming back to the US he just sold some of his homes. I'm not even a fan of the guy, but your foolery needed a response.
@@faizalkassim1556 That just shows how much weight his name holds. That's why I thought this battle was a bad idea for him. Anything said about him no matter how true is news, that's a dangerous level of fame.
@@WarwickWins5 Thats what im thinking, but who knows?
No but y’all UA-camrs/content creators are trying y’all hardest to make it happen though 🫠
the culture has spoken, WE DONT WANT DRAKE
Drake did it to himself. Sliding into 14 year old girls dms, and following high school girls basketball teams. Then selling all your property in America and dipping out to Canada when you get caught. Yeah, you tubers didn't do that shit to drizzy, drizzy did that shit to drizzy.
