If he allowed himself to be missed and shift the perspective on his contribution to the culture that would be a strong statement

AUBREY ANGELS HAS STARTED A COUP WE AINT GOIN NO MORE

It all depends on his public perception, ie whether people buy the pdf/groomer allegations. These rumors are at least 5-7 years in the making and go way beyond Kendrick, this moreso just forced the conversation. I see four routes:

(1) any possible evidence comes out, and it amounts to him merely being a guy who dates 18 year olds. Weird but the public accepts him, as they’ve accepted other guys who do that. He’s completely fine and resumes his dominance.

(2) any possible evidence comes out, and it amounts to him being the guy that dates 18 year olds. Previously got you a pass in entertainment, but not in the post cultural shift world we’re in now. He’s cooked.

(3) any possible evidence comes out, and it amounts to him actually being a pdf file. Obv cooked.

(4) evidence comes out, and he’s cleared of any actual or perceived wrongdoing , BUT either the culture is just tired of him and collectively sees this as a good time to drop him or he himself is discouraged by the experience and decides to make his exit (these are two different options but I see them as turning on factors irrelevant to the claims against him, so put them under one category).

Wait a coup doesn’t work like that

A minor?

he should take a bunch of niggas down with him

Drake's next album will be the most cohesive project he'll ever release. Remember this

Just gotta drop the solo album with the best songs I’ve ever heard that’ll do it

Kendrick just forced Drake to begin working on the greatest project he's ever released

I always thought that dark knight line was corny but he's the embodiment of it

But he did it to himself

Self immo 4 Rafah

This is like the initial black album rollout

12 songs
12 producers

Taking after his mentor Wayne

Not really sure how he can come back from this. He got the worst label someone could have now attached to his name. That doesn’t just effect his rap career, it damages his brand as a whole.

Maybe he could try acting again? Idk

Its pretty dumb for a hiphop fan to want drake to disappear!
Im glad this battle happened cause i wanted someone/something to lit him up and inspire him after FATD!
Like compare his hunger on Family matters to any track off his last 3 albums! Magnum opus time lets do it

the hashtags are insane given..

Let the bullshit die down then take a page out of his idols book and announce retirement album

Genuinely make it the best he possibly can then bow out for a few year

Focus on life, business, maybe even get back into acting and star in some roles that would show him in a more likable light

Come back in 40s and make mature rap and stop mingling with the young folks, leads to nothing but drama and the youth is ungrateful anyway

one of the greatest CBM quotes ever because how it can be applied to many situations

these are the types of threads i like seeing, some actual good takes in here. dont know how he comes back from this though, i cant really recall anyone of his status making a full comeback after getting “that” label

Don't overthink... Just vibes

buying NBC

lmfao are you insane. the culture will cook him more for this than anything because it seems forced and conceding the L

the thing is even after Hov and Nas went at it, neither conceded but Drake doing this would be him conceding

getting called a pedo being his back against the wall MBDTF moment would be so f***ing funny
