Drake was in need of a new lane after his meek beef.
He won the beef but his hip hop credibility was all the way in the red
Future wave was in full swing and getting all the love of the street in the trap scene
WATTBA was a perfect opportunity for both of their careers
A mixture of crossover appeal for both fan bases
Future helps him get his credibility back in the pulse of the game and crossover into the trap scene
In return future gets pop exposure of having a full tape with the biggest pop star out
A expert chess move on Drakes part that Future can cash in for years.
Since WATTBA Drakes gotten more and more connected in street rap
Gettin comfortable on tracks wit Lil baby and Blocboy JB for instance..
He’s now acceptable in that lane, thanks to Mr Hendrixx
So when Hendrixx needs a hit single to market a new album, Drake happily obliges.
Them boys up to somethin
Drake been had a lock on all markets before WATTBA lmao. What kind of delusion
People love to delude themselves drake this pop artist that isn’t heavily played in hoods etc. It’s cap
Drake should tie Future's shoelaces.

Lost cred after ghostwriting gate..
He was in danger of only being credible strictly as a pop artist
Future was the perfect artist to keep his spot in hip hop locked and moved him closer to the streets than ever before.
drake was played in hoods well before wattba
and drake had collabed multiple times with future before wattba
what even is this
This further exemplifies drakes cunning strategist reputation
He’s studied his power moves in depth
Most things in drakes career are meticulous moves that help him further his career in some way..
No move is pointless or strictly for the love.

Pre-2015
Gucci Mane
2 Chainz
Bun B
Pimp C
The Game
Lil Wayne
No Malice
Rick Ross
Meek
French
Snoop Dogg
Waka Flocka Flame
Nipsey
etc
but nah, Future opened the door for Drake to link up with the REAL hardcore street niggas like Blocboy and Lil Baby lol
I think the real answer is
After NWTS Drake made an effort to change his sound to be more rap
This explains the 2014 loosies and feature run, wattba and iyrtitl
The ghostwriting s*** just so happened to come out during this time, but wattba would've happened regardless

Made duppy out of love
Made duppy out of love
Tried to go for the kill
Tried to outshine the master and Push out “chess moved” him
As even Drake put it
Push tried to crush his enemy totally like Drake did Meek.
Meek was unprepared when he started war..
He started war out of emotion rather than strategy
Drake moved to crush and blackball him and Meeks career suffered severely for it until Drake reconciled with him.
Push wasnt bout to let none of that s*** happen... he baited the war cuz he had a card up his sleeve already that Drake didn’t know he had
It’s literally a chess match at play right in front of people lol
Now he bout to ride this uk flow and watch him start hopping on grime beat like pop smoke. Will ultimately drain da baby's energy by 2021 too lmao.

S*** I thought he started that with KMT in 2017
He hopped on and moved off it real quick
He can always come back to it
Only dustheads cared about the ghostwriting. Streets just wanted to see a fight.
Drake still a R&B nigga. They can do whatever they want in hiphop. They basically got the same superpowers as producers because rappers need their musicality.
