that MJ run
that 2000-2008 run

Drake's on top for more than 6 years and some people here tryna say that he is not MJs lvl artist

Probably because musically or performance wise he doesn’t done anything all that historical.

He’s the most popular yet he’s always put a notch under Kanye and Jay Z when looking at impact for some reason.

Which is odd because been more influential than either in this decade but I also think it’s because Drake doesn’t do as much outside of music besides be a meme at basketball games and get caught up shelving his own artists And hiding children.

and they're 100% right

I mean MJ spent 20 years at the absolute top, which is a bit more than just 6 years lol

Drake is more influential than Jay Z and Kanye to artists born after 1995

You see it in both rnb and hip hop

also never knew madonna was like THAT

look at how mariah basically passed the torch to Marshall Coulda been hip hop royalty if you hadnt jus been obsessed wit him...

kanye is more influential than drake, dont lie to yourself lmao

you know you are lying right

Without me, rap is just a bunch of orphans
But if I stay, then this s*** is a bunch of corpses

he's the main reason why all of the rappers nowadays sing and is one of the main reasons why hip-hop is #1 music genre now. he put Toronto on the music map and sharped music sound from there.
yeah, he hasn't done anything historical

MJ's run from 1980-1998

music discussion outside of a pure economic metric exists

Drake is the biggest artist of all time

What has Drake influenced?

Please don't disrespect MJ like that ever again

Drake is so far from the 750 million albums that MJ sold

Imagine thinking Drake is the reason rappers sing

You can really see the impact of streaming on numbers in absolute terms

Most influental rapper ever as well

He has had a direct influence on Bryson Tiller, Tory Lanez, Kanye West, Summer Walker, A Boogie, 6lack, PnB Rock, etc...

I could go on for days tbh

So you are sating whoever raps and sings today that is a black artist has been influenced by Drake

It's obvious you don't know what influence means so no need to continue this convo

imagine thinking Kanye stan can be objective in anything about Drake

Probably can flip that the other way around as well

These are only the artists who have directly stated Drake as one of their influences. The list would be 10 times longer if I included those who didn't.
