You cannot read because my main point in this thread is that not every “good-great” album is a classic. You don’t understand that just because there are songs people like (on a 20+ song album) that does not mean that album is a classic.

Of course there are gonna be songs people like on a 25 song Drake album, he doesn’t make unlistenable music. That doesn’t mean it’s a classic.

The title track, Save Your Tears, Escape From LA, Alone Again

Blinding Lights is so massive that it makes every other song seem minuscule though, that doesn’t mean that’s the only song people talk about on that album

Nigga, please

The only people who bring up those other songs are Abel stans. I'm speaking of what songs get discussed CULTURALLY online amongst people, not just Abel stans.

Save Your Tears is a massive hit off the album as well and it's almost like it isn't on the album because all anyone knows when it comes to After Hours is Blinding Lights.

You say “culturally” like the main people talking about Fire & Desire online aren’t mostly Drake stans

You do know what the most streamed album of 2016 is right?

Drake hasn’t had a classic since November

They aren't lmao. Drake fans always love his music. The reason why the general reception to his albums change online is because other people who hated it change their tune lol.

And yes, that's what I'm saying. People s*** on the music but they play it secretly, which is why his music getting so much hate online is silly to begin with.

Drake only has classic albums.

This isn’t exclusive to Drake though, this happens with literally almost every artist ever, if the artist is big enough

Starboy was seen as average when it dropped and now people love it, that doesn’t mean it’s a classic

Not like Drake. People already have their mind made up about Drake and all that concerns him. Go online and see the unnecessary hate he gates.

Dude will do the most normal thing and you'll see people get riled up calling him names and mocking him. It's very weird.

The second he drops anything, the first wave of responses you'll see online will be negative. It's ALWAYS like that for Drake. Always.

Drake is just memed a lot because he’s such a staple of pop culture at this point, I don’t think people genuinely hate him, at least not like they used to

LeBron gets memed for literally anything he does as well, and people don’t hate LeBron nearly half as much as he used to be hated

You're blind if you think the vitriol Drake gets online is just harmless memes.
