    I ain’t even gonna bother with her anymore. Every time she gets proven wrong, she changes the topic and brings up irrelevant scenarios.

    She never got proven wrong though

    can we agree that putting an older song/single on an album is, in fact, different than updating your album once it has already been released? can we do that at least? because that's the base of the discussion not all this other s***.

    I didn't make the Kendrick thread about Drake TGD has to turn KTT into her embrasssing ass Twitter feed.

    They really tried to big up DRAM over that and now look, irrrelevant

    They're all so stupid. Hotline Bling has a different beat, uses a different sample, is about a completely different topic, shares no lyrical or compositional similarities with the DRAM song, yet you have idiots saying he jacked the song. A musicologist would slap your face if you told them that.

    It was a promotional single, not a lead single. There's a difference. For example, The Heart Part 5 is a promotional single. A low-stakes single you drop preceding the release of an album. Artists do it all the time.

    If it were a promotional single then he wouldn’t have said “this is off views from the 6”

    the song flopped and he removed it from the album. That’s okay and many artists have done the same.

    Mans compared Wants and Needs / Lemon Pepper Freestyle to a pop song that even white people were bumping. The cope here is INSANE

    You sound stupid.

    nah she actually gave mad equivalent examples in that first paragraph tho. lmao

    All them equivalent examples don’t help s*** and just prove that niggas bringing this up for more flame wars.

    Everybody that was there knows that s*** was a throwaway that got mad big and was tacked on as a bonus for stream purposes, that was actually a criticism towards the album lol.

    It’s just a case of “my fave can do it but yours can’t”

    Lol

    but why does every thread have to be a Drizzy thread

    To distract from Kendrick, of course. Bring up Drake so everyone stops talking about Kendrick. That's all his stans know how to do.

    How do you know that? Did Drake tell you? He never said God's Plan would be a part of his next album, yet it is the lead single for Scorpion so how is that any different from what he did with Hotline Bling. You're acting like it didn't get pushed on radio and didn't get a music video and wasn't fully treated as a single.

    This post funny as hell ngl you got me Lirl

    very strange choice

    this doesnt work as a closer for me

    that being said i think its a better song than some on the album (looking at silent hill in particular)

    mirror still the closer no? heart 5 is like a bonus track

    Because the only similarity the songs have is that they share the same sample

    They don't.

    “Drake spoke about the connection between the songs in the course of his interview with The FADER—though his comments haven’t been published until now. Responding to a question about a sunnier vibe to some of his summer output—see also “Sweeterman,” another riff on an existing song—he seems to acknowledge that “Hotline Bling” was based on “Cha Cha” and describes the song as a modern-rap equivalent to a dancehall artist recording their own spin on a hot riddim”

    "he seems." I'm outta here.

    Nah because streaming didn’t even make up most of the market at that time
    It was just a hot single that catapulted the albums era so it was added as a bonus track

    Good song but not gonna be playing it when listening to the album

    It ain’t no Saint Pablo that’s for sure
