Man used 9 as an example crine
I made a decision last night that I would die for it
Just to show the city what it takes to be alive for it
drake was casting a spell with 9.

I don't believe a word he says on that track OP
strongly disagreeing with that first sentence in op which is basically the most important one
So are you saying Earl appears deep because many of his songs may sprinkle phrases and words here and there? Because I would disagree and say Earl has songs such as Chum, Luper, Mantra, Faucet, DNA, Grief and Solace. These songs contain stories and feelings we can all resonate with that are also descriptive
The OP literally never says that bro bro
Ops right however people mistake specificity for depth, Drake doesn’t speak on highly specific experiences like Earl but he still hits the same level of depth if not more.
9/Gods Plan/Nice For What/etc.. are as deep as any Earl song, Drake is just coming from a different angle. Drake is trying to find the links that connect everyone together while Earl is looking for the few people who can understand his language. Opposite approaches, one is descriptive, other is prescriptive. More on that eventually.
Lines like "I feel good, sometimes I don't" & "Tryna keep it peaceful is a struggle for me" break the human experience down to its most fundamental levels, exposing core feelings we all share. Communicating those feelings in a way that resonates with billions takes a deep understanding of emotions and knowing how to leave enough space for listeners to exist. Stepping aside and leaving space for listeners is the most critical part, because you have to eschew the specificities of your own experience and allow the feeling to exist in and of itself. This type of depth is deceptively simple but drake prioritizes BEING deep over APPEARING deep.
I feel what you’re saying but people mistake specificity for depth, Drake doesn’t speak on highly specific experiences like Earl but he still hits the same level of depth if not more.

"Can't get me on the line so they hang me out to dry for it" vs "fishy niggas stick to eating off of hooks"
"People mistake specificity for depth, Drake doesn’t speak on highly specific experiences like Earl but he still hits the same level of depth if not more."
literally first sentence lol
Honestly I just went off the examples you listed
theres a reason why drake bars are relatable to people from all walks of life from all corners of the world
he speaks on the human experience
strongly disagreeing with that first sentence in op which is basically the most important one
what specifically?
The OP literally never says that bro bro
but drake prioritizes BEING deep over APPEARING deep
Sounds like he saying Earl appears to be deep rather than actually being deep

I was taking you serious until this point
