as a 25 year old thats listened to drake since i was 11 i dont get what this nigga did to yall. like this is clearly one of the greatest rappers to ever do this but just because he sings his hooks now he a popstar. literally there is no difference between drake and future yet drake is called the pop star. why cant you sing without being called a pop star

i think the real things people can criticize drake on isnt even talked about, people just dont like this nigga.

like am i insane? did i not listen drake dominate an entire decade with a pen that had the greatest artist of all time doing tricks on that s***

ngl if i was that nigga id be evil too

Bro thinks we are an organized organisms on a site called ktt2 that works together in harmony as a hive mind to make up the being called Mos Def

"Pop Rap" is a thing people

“Drake is no different than Future”

Yall gotta stop with this bullshit man lol. Seen a few niggas break it down perfectly in a thread yesterday. Imma post em here

All my hoes rocking audemar

it ain't even worth it big dawg

drake stans have reached kpop stan status

He poisoned our water supply, burned our crops, and delivered a plague unto our houses!

does future have a "hold on we're going home"?

thats a horrible comparison. future also doesnt pander to whatever is popular at the moment and doesnt leech off each upcoming star. drake is a rapper for sure, but he's a pop star based on how he decided his trajectory from thank me later on.

this nigga even called himself a popstar on the khaled song. drake is the definition of assembly line music at this point.

"i would have all of your fans if i didnt go pop and stayed on some conscious s***"

drake has stated multiple times he left hip hop in the dust to be a popstar

bro futures first hit song was him singing about looking for a woman in the club tf is different

Won't someone defend the most commercially successful pop rapper of all time against meanies on the internet 🥺

"bitch i just rapped and it went pop"

Maybe record another video screaming and spitting into your phone if you want this thread to be a real success

in other words "idk my career trajectory is out of my hands"

no he just is that popular hov woulda said the same thing if he had streaming

Imagine still trying to discuss w those ppl. Half of them literally stan a Nazi

My guy

hov def chased a pop/mainstream sound a couple times, like the blueprint 3. it just never connected, im sure he would've kept it up if it connected

dont get me wrong, a lot of rap artists would do what drake did if they could, that doesnt not make it pop tho

why do y’all think something can only be called pop if it incorporates singing like it isn’t its own genre with its own characteristics and s*** lol

What mos def said had nothing to do with singing on songs lmao

also pop is about more than singing, its about the sound, the production you choose, etc
