What was the album before the studio sessions

If Janice STFU ends up being the song of the summer which it looks like it's at least one of them that lowkey is a parallel to Rock My world lol

I think the difference is Drake has already kinda oversaturated his equivalent of MJ's New Jack Swing addiction lol

Drake's trajectory/people turning on his sound is like if MJ made 5-7 albums of New Jack Swing between 1987 and 1996

It would hit at certain points but overall people would have gotten tired of that. That's the difference between MJ/Ye and Drake IMO they sacrificed more hits for trying to explore new sounds and aesthetics whereas you pretty much know what you were getting from a Drake album from Views until now outside of $$$4U and hnvm

That Katt Williams special did damage

I get what I think OP is trying to say, but the context is wrong.

Michael's music never really got overall "bad" sure maybe not as good as the OTW - Bad run

Moreso his popularity being crowded by scandal and them not being seen as the ONE, but they still have massive popularity

So the music wasn't their entire image anymore

Does this make sense?

BULLY just dropped wtf you talkin bout

Scream was MJ last certified banger

Ppl look at Rock My World a lil more fondly now but when it dropped it was laughed off as an outdated and clunky Smooth Criminal knock off

And Mjs mangled face got more press then the pricey video itself

no

ICEMAN AOTY out now

They don't care about us clears all post-2016 music from Ye & Drake

The song is still fire though despite all that

None of the artists listed ever fell off. Still the biggest artists out right now btw

The difference is Drake has no competition. MJ had plenty of competitors in the 90s with new sounds.

Artists that overused New jack Swing like Bobby Brown, Guy, New Edition, Color Me Bad were all pretty much thrown out of the mainstream when Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Mariah Carey, Mary J Blige, came into the scene with slower paced R&B when demand was shifting that direction

yes plebs and media are wrong a lot. doesn't mean we have to adopt their dumb opinions too

drake still cooking though tbh. may not be as potent as his earlier days but he still comes with good material.

This thread pissing me off

this has potential to be a talking point for invincible era but not that song buddy that a stone cold classic
