    Drake is not releasing a song that stays #1 for 10+ weeks in 2025 man

    His best hit in 7 years is struggling to even crack the Top 2

    he can if he caters to that radio sound, Nokia would be #1 if it was on his solo album and got radio play like luther.

    Also, why are we acting like Luther organically climbed to number 1? it took the Superbowl to push it over the edge. i dont think any rapper could take a song 10+ weeks to number one right now.

    Because it's a desperate attempt to creative a false narrative. Too bad that even someone with no understanding of how the charts work can see through the bullshit. Super Bowl stimulus

    2018 for Drake was the absolute peak for any rapper during the 2010s, he’s not repeating that ever again

    Can’t see him ever going on a 2018 run again (and don’t want that tbh) but I really do think he has another multi-week #1 in him somewhere down the line. NOKIA is a good song but it’s no HOWGH/Passionfruit/Take Care. He can do better

    Also rn I think the success of Drake’s music is really gonna hinge on how much it stands out and I think he knows that and won’t put as many “nondescript commercial songs” on the next album.

    No it would not be. It’s not getting enough streams.

    luther is getting massive radio play on top of 27M streams per week.

    NOKIA is hovering around 19.5/20M per week. Die With A Smile is getting the exact same number of streams per week, plus massive radio play, and it’s still 40 points below luther

    The song already cleared 200 points before the Super Bowl ever happened.

    Did it help it? Obviously. But to claim it didn’t climb to #1 organically is straight up false, it was already rising before the Halftime Show.

    I don’t understand why y’all have to put a caveat on every single successful Kendrick Lamar song. The public enjoys his music, simple as that. Nobody makes up all these asterisks for why Drake is popular, he just is. Simple as that.

    I doubt it. I think the days where the combination of his pop writing being elite & the public clamoring for new Drake music are long behind him. I’m predicting that NOKIA will be bigger than any song off his solo album

    Y’all need to step back and realize other artists then drake can have hits that are organic, there’s always some type of narrative that has to be pushed.

    How is it not “organic” because he performed at half time show he earned?

    It’s always something to discredit another artist because they feel it somehow lifts drake.

    If someone wants to believe that every single hit record has some level of manipulation that causes it to become big, cool.

    But the idea that EVERY artist BESIDES Drake doesn’t have ANY hits that are organic is straight up delusional and bitter

    Newsflash: that's how the stimulus works

    Great, simple mainstream sounding track which was released a few months before the event received a platform to push it to the casuals and 130m viewers. That's why it performed one way before the Super Bowl and another way after the Super Bowl.

    Context: before the Super Bowl his most popular song and most streamed song from the album and consistently top 5 Spotify

    After Super Bowl: same performance

    It never reached top 2 in the Hot 100 despite trying for 11 weeks. But magically enters right after the Super Bowl.

    Mad when the Prem will be won within a few weeks while s***ty Real Madrid will get wiped down by Barca 2 times in both the league and Copa? I would've said UCL too but that would mean that Real Madrid would reach the final, which they won't.
