but if he was committed to his art he wouldn't bloat them for the money tho
thats always been the eternal struggle, integrity/art vs money. the fact the drake wouldn't be caught dead putting out a 12 track album speaks volumes to where his values are at
"niggas want a classic thats just ten of these" if you love hip hop like you say you do then why don't you do it for the love/culture?
it's not for the money
he's a global artist with a wide variety of fans who appreciate different genres and sounds from him
so he sacrifices critical reception in an attempt to please them all
It’s nearly impossible for him to make a concise album that appeals to all of his fans. It’s also not what he enjoys doing.
exactly
he can make a classic for the nerds
then it'll sell less and the haters will go dRaKE iS wASheD kEnDricK eNdEed hiM
Drake has a solid 2022 year so it's more than possible for him to drop a decent project.
Even 100 GBs wasn't half bad. It just wasn't impactful.
Said it before and I’ll say it again, Drake needs to develop a serious heroin habit before recording any more music. This would be the best possible career move for him.
He would produce a deranged, dark, d***ged out experimental album that would be praised. He’d give grizzly accounts of life and the situations he gets into while being a fiend, and hustling pills on the side to fuel his addiction as people begin to distance themselves from him. Soon it would come out about his addiction and the media would be buzzing. Scandal after scandal would arise and he’d be the most talked about person in the world as he continues down this dark path of addiction and insanity. Then, he would get arrested for possession and do a stint in jail, adding credibility to the hard image he’s been trying to adopt for sometime. The #FreeDrake movement would be like nothing we’ve ever seen before and it would spark an international conversation about how we treat addicts (rehabilitative vs punitive punishment.
Drake would get out, get clean, and become the face of the opiate epidemic sweeping North America, opening him up to even wider audiences and platforms. His first album after release would sell a million first week and be praised, as Drizzy explores a whole new realm of lyrical content reflecting on his past degenerate behavior and becomes a symbol of hope for millions dealing with addiction. This would be great for his image, solidify him as one of the greatest rappers ever, and create worldwide change that benefits millions for years to come.
The best possible thing drake could do for his career is to start doing as much dog food as possible, as soon as possible.
One of the most beautiful texts of our time: Drake heroin copypasta
Been in that position fr nigga just stubborn asf
Fans been saying they want this he just dead set on trying to force a 25 track multiple genre album to be a classic and it’s never going to work lol
Drake can and does still make great music. Not saying every track is great or even that every album is top notch these days but he still has the capability to pick interesting production and do cool things with his vocals and so on.
There is a way he can gain from this if he doesn’t remain crushed by what happened
