I don't think any song on views is as interesting or creative as fsmh or 30 hours (maybe hotline bling but that's a bonus track)
It's opinions tho, so it's whatever. The only point I'm making is that fsmh and 30 don't sound like drake songs at all

That’s not why he left lmaooooo

No one gets up and says “I’ll just move to Wyoming for this amount of time”

Drake said that pool line and he felt uneasy about it since
He didn’t like the energy

How is that more “receipts” than the artists quotes themselves? Y’all are f***ing delusional

Yikes quadra itt tryna make this about ye vs drake when this about Kendrick.
I'm out

Because Brand New predates Drake hearing 808s moron

This is such a weird rebuttal

I’m pretty sure everyone on KTT 1 came to a unanimous decision that 30 hours was and sounded exactly like a Drake song lyrically

Maybe not production wise

But your personal opinions of Views doesn’t negate the fact that Drake was involved in the creative process of TLOP

If Ye didn’t value Drake’s pen he would’ve never been invited to help craft 30 hours, Yikes & FSMH imo

Drake never said his influence for Ye was 808s moron. Nobody mentioned 808s moron

I replied to a conversation about Drake/Ye

Look at my presence influencing your decisions

Which interview?

Which one is it Quadra. One minute Kanye is afraid of him. The next minute he’s obsessed for threatening him on ye and pulling up to his house

Whats that?

FACTSSS

"Before I ever got the chance to meet him, Kanye West shaped a lot of what I do, as far as music goes," Drake told MTV News on Tuesday night before his show at S.O.B.'s. "We always, always, always took the time to listen to Kanye's music and appreciate it beyond. We searched the samples and we find out where his inspiration came from, because he has one of the best ears in music, period. He knows how to recognize great music that's not his. He knows how to utilize great sounds and great music. So before I met him, I had the utmost respect for Kanye West. I'd even go as far as to say he's the most influential person as far as a musician that I'd ever had in my life."

love everyone

And Drake also stated Aaliyah and his father was his biggest influencers to sing/rapping

Drake had song leaks in 2007 of him singing with 40 on production

I’m not denouncing that Kanye didn’t influence them but he didn’t birth their entire style either

As these formulas existed with 90s R&B

Maybe if you guys took the time to read & reflect before replying there would be this much confusion in the thread

I love it when the big brains start talking about Drake like he's Malcolm X

First 15 seconds

every mainstream artist is lowkey influenced by each other

I love having my foot on the necks of these Drake stans. Bodying then with their daddies own words

Nigga said cole

the better times

We're talking about songs, not only about lyrics. Drake wouldn't have that beat on any of his albums, he wouldn't have André singing 30 hours as a sample on the second half of the song while having a spoken word interlude. Songwriting isn't just lyrics, song sounds different, that's it.
Same goes with fsmh, that was all ye. And if drake wrote lyrics so be it, song isn't just that, especially since the lyrics are the worst part of the song.

About last part, that doesn't make drake influential to Kanye. It's great they worked together, but that's not influence, that's collaboration.

Boom

Stop it bro kanye is drakes idol and drake rapped on 808s beats

Here we are yet again 10 pages into a thread and ur dumbass is d***sucking reaching for the stars making drake fans look bad

music is a constant cycle of influence and sharing sounds

no one has "influenced the most artists" not even King Kenny

the only exception is Tunechi

Since sampling Aaliyah on his debut album ‘Thank Me Later,’ it is evident that Drake is a huge fan. Last year he even wrote a letter to her on the ninth anniversary of her passing. This time around, in light of Aaliyah’s 32nd birthday that just passed, SoulCulture caught up with Drake while he was on tour in Manchester and he reveals what Miss Haughton meant to him and his career:

“ Aaliyah has had probably the most impact on my career “ he states.

I get you’re a Ye stan but you can’t credit him with the R&B infusion in rap

808s isn’t even R&B

But I guess, you’re being hard headed, I already acknowledged Ye’s influence on Drake and the genre several times in the thread
