    Just wanted to make a thread stating that regardless of what Drake does it’ll always be seen as a failure/has critics. That’s honestly part of being the GOAT.

    If CLB were to be an album that gets a lot of playtime, running the charts, all “casuals” enjoy it, people will complain that he just makes radio hits, he lost his artistic ability, is a popstar, etc.

    If CLB were to be an album that is lyrical, contains great story telling, and whatever people consider “great.” People will say it lacked radio time, isn’t running the the top 100, he lost his touch, etc.

    Moral of the story is regardless of the outcome CLB/Drake will be criticized by “connoisseurs”/KTT. Stop arguing with these people, let this CLB era be great for you, and enjoy CLB/Drake.

    If he made a more lyrical album I don’t think people will say Drake lost his touch. Nigga has the most hits out of everybody in history. Ain’t nobody passing him anytime soon either. He bought himself at least one album where it ain’t about hits at all and just about making a high quality, groundbreaking and thought provoking magnum opus.

    Yup. He’s done what he’s needed to do with billboard hits. He can give us that opus.

    who ever complains about a storytelling album GKMC & TPAB is praised to high heavens.

    Nobody cares for how popular or how many hits an album got, all we want is quality.

    Drake is great and will always be great because he doesn’t have what @op said in his mind.

    He just makes what he feels and doesn’t give af.

    There shouldn’t be too much thought in good music

    Disagree. Drake is not a “radio artist” it’s a fake crutch created by haters to marginalize his success. Any drake song can be a radio hit. That’s why he’s not a radio artist
