The throne is tied to the idea of rap as a competitive sport, but aside from DaBaby’s occasional boasts, no one from the new guard seems to have the throne on their vision board at the moment. Today’s competitive tension is typically addressed on Instagram Live, not on record. Bragging rights have been reduced to a numbers game, screenshots of Billboard, Spotify, Apple charts and RIAA certifications.
Until a member of the new guard explicitly challenges Drake, as he did when he plotted to take the throne from Jay and Ye many years ago, the throne isn’t for the taking.

I think it was when Dreams Money Can Buy dropped that we realized what Drake was
how great can the “throne” be if nobody even says they want it anymore
