thekid187thats what im talking about
drake himself is still good. but the beef affected a lot of other niggas that jumped in for no reason, they lost fans with the pick a side s***.
s*** looking different without the stimulus. dot did his thing and left everyone else struggling.
wonder what Ross is gonna do numbers wise.
nigga were obsessed with ending drake that the forgot how it would affect themselves.future, cole. metro etc, all doing less after the beef then they did before. meanwhile iceman is outperforming fatd.
i see what youāre saying but i think the genre was already on a commercial downturn and a lot of ppl thought the return of drake would be a reversal of that as a whole

true
but thats not possible anymore because of the burned bridges
whats made drakes run special was the amount of alley hoops he was giving to niggas through featureswith him being more selfish with the features and letting certain niggas fend for themselves the numbers are gonna suffer across the board.
most of them niggas are still gonna be good overall, not like they are about to be broke - but the numbers games they were playing from 2017 to 2023/2024 is really over for now.

They really said hip-hop would be back on top after Drake dropped
This has been trending in this direction ever since 2020, anyone who thought this was the result of the beef is an idiot

Drake was on 21ās most recent album and that album was one of the biggest flops in mainstream rap in the 2020s
Drake was on BUSINESS IS BUSINESS twice in 2023 and that album came and went

thats the point,
it was a throw away feature and still one of the biggest track on the album. without that feature a nigga like 21 has an even worse first week, which is just wild.s*** is looking different with drake not gifting the bangers anymore.
if a 21 can only get this kind of drake feature, its more than over for the rest.

That song is not popular whatsoever
Of course the song with the feature is one of the most popular tracks on the album first week, thatās the case with literally every album. Ran to Atlanta was #2 the week ICEMAN came out because there was a popular feature on it

business is business did 90k fw while thug was incarcerated, it might have done less than 50k without drake jumping and shooting videos for 2 tracks
again u niggas just miss the point and dont realize that these projects would be even worse off without the features.
no one expecting thug to do +200k a week, but you would have to be an idiot to not feel the affects of certain features not happening anymore

Dog. EVERY album would be worse off without big features
Why are you attributing this to Drake like itās something specific to him?
Punk had a Drake feature too and cleared 100K+ first week. BUSINESS IS BUSINESS objectively came and went. Same with 21ās new album.
Sure, the Drake song is the āmost popularā song on the album, but itās still not popular whatsoever (MR RECOUP only has 43M streams and it released 7 months ago)

Numbers-wise, every big name feature helps every album
This is not something specific to Drake, this is just a fact of the music industry
If Futureās new album had Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter and Morgan Wallen and Travis Scott on it, it wouldāve sold more first week than it did without them on it
Jul 15future 135k in 2026 is basically 1 mill in 2016

no s***, dont be obtuse
but how many big artist features can you get nowadays without too much of a fuss ? this was literally what thugs jail call was about, kendrick not stepping up when it came to featuresdrake as the biggest had no issues supporting niggas like thug even with multiple tracks when they were going through it.
now take away drake - what drake level artists will offer features that are gonna have the same affect ?u still are delusional enough to think that drake is just some other artists or thug can just get a beyonce, taylor swift or bad bunny feature without an issues

The point Iām making is that even with the Drake feature nowadays these albums are still flopping so it does not make a difference
No big-name feature is saving these albums performance because this is a direction that the industry has been heading in for the past six years
Mainstream rap needs a major shake-up at the top

yeah u are delusional, meanwhile khaled literally was not able to drop his album the moment he lost his 2 drake features
all hope is lost, niggas like you are the reason we are even in this position right now and media literacy is at an all time low.
young miami has the biggest record of her career with spent that and still wants drake to jump on the feature, because features make no difference, let alone a drake one

Drake hasnāt had a feature become a hit since 2022 with WAIT FOR U
You are the delusional one if you think otherwise, literally every single one of his features have flopped since then
Drake was on the last Khaled album and that song flopped

sorry cant take you serious anymore
good luck with your takes though
im sure molly santana is gonna decline that drake feature if she can have him on her album lol
u bum ass nigga just said a couple minutes ago that big artist feature will have a positive affect on numbers citing snowflakes like taylor swift, but now its not possible because anymore because of your drake hate

I said it will positively affect the numbers, yes, but I never said a big name feature guarantees a hit record.
MR RECOUP is the highest-streamed song on 21ās album, yes, but that song is still an utter commercial failure and not popular whatsoever. 43M streams in seven months, thatās terrible for artists of their magnitude.
A Drake feature is not the difference between your album having a hit and not having a hit in 2026.
Obviously any up-and-coming artist would accept a feature from Drake the same way they would accept a feature from any global megastar, theyād be fools not to. But all Iām saying is that accepting that feature does not guarantee a hit record, nor does it guarantee that your album will be a success
