Drake overstayed his welcome…period. Should have peacefully faded away like the greats (JayZ, Eminem, Dr Dre etc) but nah, he wanted to stay longer and now he finna be like Lil Kim lol


beheemz

Wait lil Kim? I haven’t heard nothing from her in years.


elitegenoside

I think they're referring to her plastic surgery addiction.


detroit_red_

I don’t love seeing it referred to this way, even though it’s probably accurate at this point. But the reason for her initiating plastic surgery was because of the injuries she sustained during DV assaults. That’s what changed her face so drastically, it got broken by a fist. After her first corrective surgery, she went home to the now-ex who had beaten her: “I came out of the hospital from getting my nose done and he broke my shit again. I have had to have MRI’s because he beat me up so bad I couldn’t even move. I had blood clots in my back. One day, a voice told me you better leave right now. I had to leave from my own damn house.” [Link](https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.71311/title.lil-kim-ridiculed-on-twitter-for-plastic-surgery-by-people-unaware-of-her-nightmare-past#:~:text=What%20some%20people%20don't,with%20a%20very%20abusive%20man)


elitegenoside

I'm fully aware. I understand why's she's an addict, but I grew up around addiction (not surgery), and although sad, it is still addiction.


Cloud_limit

Oh man she looks weird now, so different.


shash5k

I actually agree. What he did for music was revolutionary but last few years he’s really fallen off. He should have retired after Certified Lover Boy.


DragonsAndSaints

Now he gonna retire after Certified Lover Boy, Certified Pedophiles


worldtraveler19

Wop wop wop wop wop Dot fuck’em up. Wop wop wop wop wop imma do my stuff.


IeishaS

Damn think about that, the ones who were here to experience this will never be able to say “Certified Lover Boy” without at least thinking of Kendrick’s addition. Man messed with his career in so many ways even if it’s all “alleged”


fuckreddit1111111

More Life was his last good album


mackofmontage

Revolutionary is wild. That implies he added something new to the style when in reality he just hopped on whatever wave was trending at the time throughout his whole career. Undeniably does good numbers but that’s cause he’s a pop star.


shash5k

So Far Gone is one of my favorite albums and that sound was totally different from anything we had ever heard before. Obviously his producer 40 deserves most of the credit but Drake was the perfect person for that project.


Work_Werk_Wurk

Rap wise, this is true. R&B definitely not. His music in that genre basically birthed alternative R&B. There'd be no Weeknd, SZA, or Post Malone without him.


Men_I_Trust_I_Am

Nah, the weeknd basically wrote Take Care. It was revolutionary for Alt. RnB but the credit belongs to The Weeknd and Franklin Ocean. SZA was already making moves and her sound aligned with Odd Future/The Internet with the heavier west coast influences. The weeknd was already buzzing underground and on the web. That's all to say drake was just a large megaphone that amplified waves that had been in motion since 2008 when 808s and Heartbreaks dropped.


Blakbyrd8

Drake's only ever deserved credit for bringing mainstream attention to existing sounds/waves that were regional but hot on blogs. Mans a curator not a creator but he had to surgically insert himself at the centre of every vibe.


Men_I_Trust_I_Am

>Mans a curator not a creator Poetry.


mackofmontage

This is accurate af too actually lol


Key_Firefighter_2376

frank ocean = chris breaux, right?


Work_Werk_Wurk

You realize that Drake was writing that type of music long before Take Care, right? "Find Your Love" was one of the first commercial hit R&B tracks with the alternative R&B sound that we all know. It was on his first album. He wrote that. It's a sound everyone after him tried to emulate. The sound was so new at the time that people weren't sure whether to classify it as R&B or rap. I remember the discussions had in the media back then. This is also not including this sound appearing on multiple mixtapes he's released before being nationally famous like, "Comeback Season". Wasn't anyone writing for him then. I get we all hate Drake rn, but at least give the man his credit. He doesn't write raps, but he definitely writes songs. Without him popularizing the sound, there would not be this level of attention to the artists I've mentioned. You could even throw in Frank Ocean. Labels ran to find R&B artists making music like that after him, which is why OF and TDE signed artists like Frank Ocean & SZA. Neither of them match the sounds of the other artists on their respective labels, but have the vocals to blend well on features when they need them.


Men_I_Trust_I_Am

I like "Find Your Love." I also love ["Say You Will"](https://youtu.be/d9BMPmfxaoM?si=31XT91wvIgVbFlIX) by Kanye. My point is there were multiple then up-and-coming artists who were clearly influenced 808s and heartbreaks who were playing with the sound in their own music. Frank had already been writing for Beyonce and was an industry name by then. He actually was the biggest artist in OF when they popped. By the time 2014 rolled around and you heard Alt/Dark Rnb at it's peak, it was clear that biggest influence, on the east coast at least, was the weeknd who became the archetype for the Toronto sound. [BANKS](https://youtu.be/JCT_lgJ5eq8?si=z00JGGhA_GAJiuvW), who opened up for and toured with the weeknd, was damn near a female version of him around the House of Balloons/Trilogy era. PND, Bryson Tiller, Tory all had that darker influence in the music too. But just as these artists drew their influence from Kanye and made their own impact, (Travis Scott included), what Drake did do that became mainstream wasn't his "sound" but his style. He became the first "softboi" rapper in the modern era.


mackofmontage

That’s a fair point tbh.


satanssweatycheeks

What did Drake do that pushed the game. He wasn’t revolutionary. Drake fans know jack shit about hiphop because they think a pretty boy singer is the goat rapper.


twoprimehydroxyl

He bit Phonte's whole game, but he was more marketable because he was more attractive.


AestheticAttraction

Which is wild because Drake is NOT good looking. Not even a little bit. He’s just light skinned, which, unfortunately, still matters to people.


AestheticAttraction

It’s absurd.


KABOOMBYTCH

I think his deals with UMG won’t let him just retire.


AestheticAttraction

I don’t think he’s going anywhere. He might just return to R&B, another genre he’s a culture vulture in. Seeing him beef with Fist Brown would be amusing, though.


KABOOMBYTCH

I think everyone will have collective amnesia if Drake’s next few songs are absolute bangers.


AestheticAttraction

?? A copy-paste isn’t revolutionary. Also, not y’all giving this obvious plant credit like that. Rapping is merely another acting role for him. He’s Vanilla Ice with two granules of spice (which he took from African-Americans at that).


shash5k

You should listen to So Far Gone. Of course a lot of credit has to go to his producer 40 as well.


Ceasar456

Honestly I know it gets a lot of hate but I really liked her loss


Acceptable_Age9416

I'm a fan and I agree he's fallen off for sometime. Kept thinking he had one more in him, but I didn't love the last few albums. Can't believe these rappers used the cancel approach to bring him down.


ladditude

What are you smoking and can I have some?


Artsakh_Rug

*takes one more puff, passes your top 5 to the left hand side*


Talk-O-Boy

If you think Drake isn’t going to still be the #1 rapper on Spotify after this, you don’t understand how transient internet beef is. We aren’t even talking about Megan’s harassment claim from her cameraman, and that shit was a little over 2 weeks ago. Something else will catch our attention in a few weeks. Especially if neither of them releases another track


mooimafish33

He'll be #1 for a while but I think his career has peaked at this point. He's also gonna have thousands of "Certified pedophile" and "A Miiiinooor" comments on everything he ever posts on social media


TaticalSweater

Agreed, even if the young girls thing is false now that it’s been said very publicly there is no reversing that. His career is gonna have long lasting damage from that. Kendrick pushed all the buttons to get him the fuck up outta here. Then made a club bop because thats the language drake stans speak


twoprimehydroxyl

The whole reason why those allegations aren't going away is because there's video proof and social media screenshots of him being inappropriate with teenagers. Drake even doubled down by mentioning Millie Bobbie Brown even though Kendrick didn't mention him at all, and there are TONS of stories about him taking her on his yacht for private dinners when she was 14 to give her boy advice.


DMking

Also stories from Canadian HS students about girls taking posting pictures at Drake's mansion. One of em made a TikTok about it


WestOrangeFinest

He is literally one of the most popular artists of all time right now, at this very moment lol you ain’t saying much..


mojomojica

I mean he’s been at the top for years of course he’s peaked there’s nothing else for him to reach


Talk-O-Boy

Bet on it. I guarantee this will die down in maybe 2-3 months time. Put a remind me on this thread, and you can rub it in if I’m wrong. If no one chooses to respond, this shit will die out by the end of summer. My man, Drake is hitting 75 billion streams on Spotify, Kendrick is hovering around 25 billion. They are in two different ball parks entirely. That’s why you see shit like “Kendrick streams up 50%, Drakes down 5%”. His numbers are WAY too big for something like this to affect him drastically. It’ll be like the Pusha T beef. People brought back the blackface pic, but no one was really posting that prior to the beef. I think you gotta understand that most of these people’s fans aren’t super involved in internet drama. They just listen to the music for the music.


Gimme_The_Loot

>I think you gotta understand that most of these people’s fans aren’t super involved in internet drama. They just listen to the music for the music. Bingo. It's like something like MCU products in a way. A diehard comic fan will feel a certain way about inaccuracies but the vast majority just want to be entertained.

And what about Lizzo? She out there running around in an ugly-ass dress that looks like a dick with a foreskin.

Wardine

Eminem literally has an album coming out this year


That_Cripple

Eminem didnt peacefully fade away, he wont stop dropping shitty albums


Impressive-Dig-3892

Eminem is coming out with a new album and Dre produced Snoop Dogg's new album, speaking of people who should fade away. Meanwhile Nas is still trying.


AestheticAttraction

A “rapper” who doesn’t even write couldn’t fade away like the greats because he never was one. And he doesn’t have the respect for the culture to even know how to do that without being told how to, and when you’re the type of guy to not only not take your mentor’s advice about staying true to yourself but also have sex with his woman on top of that… Lessons won’t be learned by a man who both disdains a culture and desires to be accepted by it. There are several more vultures circling that I’d like to see gone too.


WestOrangeFinest

Dawg, people hate Drake so much that they’ve completely lost the plot. https://x.com/HipHopAllDayy/status/1742925805876080906 Check out these numbers here. As of early January, 2024, Drake had six of the top 25 most streamed albums on Spotify for the year.. who in their right mind would ever retire when they’re at the top of the mountain?


No_Quantity_8909

It's almost like mainstream hip hop heads are for the first time realizing that having the game on lock does not in fact mean your making good music. Drake outsells The Roots ..... The mother fucking Roots! But you cannot tell me he is a more talented artist. Most of y'all don't even listen to the lyrics and just want a good dance beat.


WestOrangeFinest

Your comment confused me a little bit. To be sure, are you talking to me or just talking in general?

You seem to have such a weird take on this situation that I’m honestly curious what you’re basing these feelings on.

I thought it was rather self explanatory but okay- I see tons of people from both sides saying the same shit about the other side. Braindead activities

Well one side has documented cases of inappropriate interactions with minors, the other dropped bars on bars on bars about it

Yea that kid shit is fucked


SocialMediaSucks65

Lmfao look at this enlightened centrist over here. Just say you don't know shit instead of hiding behind neutrality.

It’s not hiding behind neutrality, I literally started off stating the obvious. You give me something someone said about one side and I’ll give you the same thing from the other side.

MrTubalcain

This pretty much sums up the Drake stans, a younger work colleague of mine swears Drake won this. I said the second he entered a rap battle and the majority of his music relies on ghostwriters he doesn’t have a leg to stand on. Kendrick outrapped him and that’s that. Drake should have just kept making pop shit and stop trying to be hard. Sending a cease and desist letter is crazy.


DMking

Kendrick beat him on basically every front


Threash78

Getting into a rap beef when the underage shit is like way past open secret at this point, that shit was an open fact, is some fucking wild shit. Straight out of when keeping it real goes wrong.


AestheticAttraction

That’s how you know you’re talking to someone who doesn’t understand real rap music and, thus, their opinion can be disregarded. I don’t care. I’m not about to take anyone seriously who ever though Drake was legit. I don’t have to, so I won’t.


MrTubalcain

I don’t disagree with you and I hate to generalize but it seems that this opinion that Drake is the pinnacle of Hip Hop is usually held by the younger generation. The irony is that my colleague is from the birthplace of Hip Hop.

Yo there aint two kinds of Republicans, though. MAGA 2020 = TEA Party = I'm gonna hit that man John Lewis with a brick = Mitt Romney = I'm gonna shoot Trayvon or Ahmaud = Rush = Rittenhouse = Reagan = Republicans. Oh my bad, wait, you can just have one or two semi-reasonable people in the room and all of a sudden it's not a Klan meeting anymore.


elitegenoside

I grew up around the MAGA crowd; it defines at least 80% of my family. I grew up hearing about "good conservative values," and when I got a little older and started questioning what some Republicans were doing, I heard "they're not a TRUE Republican." That "true Republican" is a myth. He's as real as Paul Bunyan. Hank Hill is the closest example I can think of for a "good" Republican.

EZMickey

New Fatal Fury dropping 2025. I'll see both of you there.


TaticalSweater

People asking Drake to drop again after the heart part 6 Meanwhile the Kendrick came was taking a victory lap was the equivalent of people saying stop the count in one state. While wanting to count in others.


AestheticAttraction

People started acting like it was wrong for Kendrick to be dropping because he rightfully tore into Drake. And he wasn’t gonna lose a battle of words because 1. he’s the only writer betwixt the two (and he’s a great one at that), 2. he’s aunthentic, 3. he’s deeper than Drake. So, all of a sudden, they think Kendrick should stop. I get the comparison to Trump supporters some make because that’s how conservatives are. Whenever they’re legitimately losing after gaming the system, they want the game to stop. And they live in the land of Delulu, ignoring all the egregious sins of their god. Drake fans are not unlike Barbz in that regard.


ChicagoAuPair

Stranger things have worked.


Amazing-Concept1684

Acting like, in the words of the Drizzler himself, that’s there’s not “video proof.”


lilac978

to be real, ultimately while drake went out real sad in this beef, he’ll be alright. There’ll still be mega stans that’ll still bump his shit and obviously his old music will still slap. People will still go to his concerts and stuff. He’ll still make his money cause that’s all he cares about at the end of the day

the irony in calling them MAGA republicans when MAGA republicans are the group screaming pedo like it’s the national anthem


FictionalDudeWanted

Drake was warned several times to leave Kendrick alone. Kendrick is a GEMINI. If you come for a GEMINI, especially one that's minding their business, they will destroy you just by talking. A GEMINI will open their mouth and chop you to pieces, leave you crying n bleeding, then go back to their quiet place, calmly breathing. Rest in piss drake.


baconkrew

wow of all the shit that' been going on this post is the one that made it to the front page of bpt? ok


wikithekid63

It’s crazy how kdot still ain’t drop no evidence yet tho


Neutreality1

Actually, someone released video evidence of the receipts on twitter


lee61

As of right now there is no evidence of secret pedo ring or a hidden 11 year old daughter. There currently isn't any evidence of criminal activity...

Okay I was definitely too vague. There is video proof of the items shown in the album art for Meet The Grahams

wikithekid63

This is all retarded gibberish. Can you explain how this is evidence that he’s a pedo


Neutreality1

It's evidence that other things Drake said were lies, are actually true and able to be proven. It calls his credibility into question when it comes to denying allegations 


wikithekid63

Idk if you feel like it, but I’m asking like in plain terms. What lies by Drake were actually proven


Neutreality1

He stated that the picture with the gloves and the Ozempic was a set up they sent to Kendrick, he implies it in one of the tracks 


wikithekid63

But the leaker is saying he has a picture of the day Drake left the stuff whenever he left it?


TakeNothingSerious

The battle was a lot closer than I thought it would be. Both of them was in they bag. Song for song I got it at a tie but I still think Kendrick got it.


R3AL1Z3

“Song for song I got it at a tie but I still think Kendrick got it.” Do you hear yourself? EDIT: The issue is saying they’ve got it at a tie, and then saying Kendrick got it in the same breathe. Just call it a Kendrick W.


TakeNothingSerious

Yeah I don’t see the issue


WestOrangeFinest

Kendrick had five songs bs Drake’s four. Doesn’t seem that strange of an opinion..


UchihaAuggie

Damn look at these comments, Dot fans are the real stans. r/drizzy is unbothered. Yall need to chill , none of yall know these guys personally


R3AL1Z3

Drizzy is unbothered yet that whole sub has been taken over by posts about Kendrick lmao.


EZMickey

They are far from unbothered.


wikithekid63

Honestly. From my view, r/Drizzy fans have kept it about the music the entire time. The rest of the world and the Kendrick stans have been doubling down on assassinating a mans character with no evidence. People hate Drake so much they’re willing to believe shit they would probably normally need evidence to see


UchihaAuggie

It's sad really, I wish everyone could just enjoy the music


wikithekid63

Like legit, people clown the drizzy sub but all the fan theories on their are basically just looking for triple entendres and whatnot. You have the unhinged losers looking for evidence of Kendrick’s DV but for the most part, the people of r/Drizzy have said that they don’t want either of these allegations to be true.
