Going Bad was a huge rap song
But yea 2018 was his commercial peak and it’s been a slow slow decline since
Gods Plan was literally the biggest Rap Song of all time before Not Like Us happened
Of course it wouldnt
Unfortunately i heard their version of that daft punk a lot outside last year which i do not like
Idk who made that daft punk sample beat but I genuinely hope they never get a placement again
S*** was criminal
YouTube, streaming... hell the rise of the internet in general has killed music. Actual Huge hits are so rare now.
You’re confusing cause and effect here, rap was the largest genre for a while because of Drake
Idk about that I think the stars that came before the 2010s genre of artists built a lot of that up and then the new guys came at the right time
Like Wayne, Kanye
They helped push it to a new level then a new generation of stars drake Kendrick Cole etc took advantage of the momentum those guys gave the genre
The Wayne cosign in general is a bit underrated for what it did for drake.
50 cent? Bone thugs?
Drake being the first to do what he did or even popularize it was one of the biggest lies sold to the people.
Some people were doing it here and there but it wasnt the hit formula like it was to put a random rnb singer on the song back then, drake popularized it because he was making hits that way
Bros bringing up rappers from a whole different millennium
are you f***ing stupid or something? he said Drake was the main reason why hip-hop went global and became the #1 genre, the conversation was never contained to a generation
stick to s***posting or some s*** dude
Drake literally made hiphop the most listened to genre in the US and arguably even the world
Eminem, Kanye, & Wayne need their props
Em opened the floodgates for real & Wayne ran with it as well to influence the rappers who came after them
doesn't matter why,
Em still did what he did and had the game on his back, ushered in a legend in 50 Cent, and collabed with people who were true to the game but didn't have the crossover success Em could reach
so many people's first time hearing people like Xzibit, Jay-Z or Redman was because of Eminem
and on the other hand, Wayne had smash hits that not only expaned the reach of BLACK rappers, but curated the sound for the next generation
and obviously Ye changed the rap game / music overall with his albums, his distinct eras and visual elements to each, the larger than life persona.
without these 3, Drake is a local nigga still collabing with Kardinal Offishal & K-os, no disrespect.
Max b and french style hooks yea but like they had a little irony to them and that wasnt like their hit formula, drake def brought something new that a lot of people imitated
Only person that’s imitated Drake is Jack Harlow Drake came in the game imitating Phonte and Budden then that became Ludacris and Big Sean then that became Kanye which then became Jay then that became new ATL then it became just a combination of accents and code switching
Just stop it bro.
Yeah bless his heart with that reply shoutout to him but anyway, Drake never brought a mass of new hiphop fans. This isn’t even something slow burning or hidden when it happens: not when NWA did it, Kanye did it, Em did it, Kendrick did it. It was pretty f***ing obvious that they brought in new hiphop fans with certain projects - often to them being berated for the ‘demographics’ they brought in
This has never happened with Drake. And you really know too cause, well…young niggas never went “oh I wanna rap like Drake” either lol
other rtard replied to you saying Drake popularized melodic rapping like Lauryn isn’t right there omg
even WAYNE WAS DOING IT BEFORE HIM

Not like us is bigger than gods plan? Wow I didn’t know that

Niggas act like we didn’t watch buddies whole career and these be the gripes at the each turn

these niggas really just extract their knowledge purely off of here
only on KTT you’d get a take so disconnected from reality and outright disrespectful to the entire genre
Niggas in here crying like hoes over nothing
Been like this for some time now, it's unfortunate
Only person that’s imitated Drake is Jack Harlow Drake came in the game imitating Phonte and Budden then that became Ludacris and Big Sean then that became Kanye which then became Jay then that became new ATL then it became just a combination of accents and code switching

Ludacris even dissed this nigga because he was swagger jacking
Drake changed the way everyone rapped like on a giant scale when the melodic rapping started working for him, plus around when he came in singing his own hooks the mainstream rappers stopped calling skyler grey and bruno mars for all their hooks drake f***ed up all the formulas
Ignorant and stupid post. Rappers were using melodies way before Drake even touched a mic

Just because you dont like him doesnt mean he didnt influence mad artists, if you genuinely listen to a melodic drake song and think “this is a joe budden bite” then you are smoking real genuine cock

Song where he imitates Ludacris?
First time hearing this
Just because you dont like him doesnt mean he didnt influence mad artists, if you genuinely listen to a melodic drake song and think “this is a joe budden bite” then you are smoking real genuine cock
There will never be honest conversations about Drake on here again
Joe Budden didn't popularize melodic rap because Joe Buddens music wasn't that popular
Some people were doing it here and there but it wasnt the hit formula like it was to put a random rnb singer on the song back then, drake popularized it because he was making hits that way
The people I just named made some of the biggest rap songs oat before anyone knew Drake. Even Ja Rule was singing on his on hits. Drake didn’t invent this formula.
If we really want to break this s*** down Drake’s influence in R&B more than it is in rap. The rappers that sing today are influenced by Chicago, ATL, Wayne, before they are influenced by Drake.
See the thread going by suburban number hits and not outside hits
Makes sense
You gotta start botting your comments bro this s*** is sad
Just because you dont like him doesnt mean he didnt influence mad artists, if you genuinely listen to a melodic drake song and think “this is a joe budden bite” then you are smoking real genuine cock
dumbass cracker
There will never be honest conversations about Drake on here again
Joe Budden didn't popularize melodic rap because Joe Buddens music wasn't that popular
All rationale goes out the window when papi or kenny comes up, people are acting like im claiming drake is the first person to sing on a song
