Nah, Drake haters always say anything Drake does is a flop or trash if it’s not #1. But then these same people b**** and say Drake stans only care about numbers. They just looking to hate on anything as usual.
Before you talk about how Drake is the best selling hip hop artist of all time, "father of streaming", does/doesn't have classics, etc. listen.
As most of y'all know, I'm a newer Drake stan. Wasn't really a big fan until the Views era, and started stanning a few months ago. But one thing I've noticed is that some of y'all - not all, but some - are WAY too obsessed with numbers. Like can you actually take the song apart and appreciate it for what it is?
Y'all are so quick to call a single that doesn't go #1 a flop or if a ep/mixtape go gold in a week it's a failure or commercial bomb. What happened to genuinely loving the music and art he puts out? Y'all are so concerned with the sales and chart positions the love of art and music is thrown out the music. THIS is why 60% of the site hates you. So many of y'all aren't here for the music. I get that we have the clownery and classic threads and all, but sometimes it's straight up embarrassing and cringeworthy. Every time someone mentions Drake yall turn it into a stan war and all you can bring up is sales and chart positions and streams because you don't care about the music at all. There are some other things (the election thread was VERY revealing) but it gets the point that I sometimes wanna take CLB out my name completely, cuz y'all give us such a bad rep. I'm not gonna call any names, as this obviously isn't the majority, but the few of y'all who do really screw it up for the rest of us.
I do wanna make it clear that CLB has become the scapegoat for ethering users for no reason and starting stan wars that don't need to exist, but that's a discussion for another thread.
Good point op, even though i think Drake and Future need to go back to the WATTBA era of making dark moody trap music made for late night drives around Atlanta while you're sipping on a cup of lean.
Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t
This is music not wolf of wall street
Bro aint got papi as #1 on spotify and thinks he can talk his s*** here.

And music, like all art, is subjective.
To be clear, I’m a fan of Drake for his artistry first and foremost but me waxing poetic about that isn’t going to make a difference to an insecure hater who thinks Drake’s entire existence is ‘corny’ and resents him for his success

Then why’d u talk about “numbers don’t”
It’s ok if you like Drake’s music the question is why do you always bring up sales when they don’t matter?
Op this site is filled with good for nothing air heads. Theyre insecure so they shut down anyone trying to voice their concerns. Either because they were never taught how to socialize or because they've gotten so comfortable behind their screens they don't need to care about anything.

Because numbers (sales) are the most objective measure of success. There’s no greater endorsement of quality than a large group of consumers exchanging their hard-earned money for an artist’s product

You just said music is subjective
i only stan him bc he sexy lol
When you say you like Drake the most because he is very popular and sells the most records and charts a lot and if you don’t like Drake then you don’t go to parties or don’t have s***(as if it’s not nerdy to look up chart data) it makes you look like you only like Drake because of peer pressure
