    Nelly, diddy, Luda, and 50 are top 10 commercially and have all fell into obscurity musically. Especially the first three

    None and that's not my point. Me and you are both generations after him and know who he is. That's the point

    Your point is irrelevant this is my thread and your point has nothing to do with what I said.

    I stated many times THE MUSIC won't be looked at the same.

    You did acknowledge though that you and me both came after Elvis and neither of us own s*** from him despite him being popular at a point in time

    Then your argument applies to everyone not named Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder

    Why relegate it to Drake?

    A whole ass generation of kids grew up on his music and that music has lasted for around a decade, just as legends from previous gens like MJ and Stevie. It doesn't matter how you view his music, to say it won't stand the test of time is ludicrous and his music has been around long enough to gage whether it will or not. And the answer is:

    It will.

    I'm not talking about me. Were you not talking about the masses? Ok your argument reads as "artists who were popular at one time don't necessarily cross over to future generations". And my point is that idea applies to 90% of artists not named MJ and Stevie

    Dude LITERALLY WHAT

    19-20 years old are living in the hype era what are you even sayiing with this they talk about music he made 3 years ago s***.....

    Most of this s*** is hype. You just CHOOSE to believe that these memories and Drake's hype will disappear, but historically the opposite is true.

    What keeps the old music relevant (at least as relevant as it can be)? It's not the critic's reviews. It's not even necessarily quality. It's all hype I PROMISE

    The point is that sales don’t mean much when it comes to how the music is viewed in the long run. Almost half of the top ten has faded.

    Meanwhile you have genuinely iconic albums that haven’t moved units like that

    Not really cuz n real time nelly & ja rule were doin exactly wat Drake doin he jus doin it in a streaming / social media era so his s*** is jus magnified.

    So you think MJ and Stevie Wonder the only artist people post their time period listen to?

    Prince? Bowie? No?
