@MandyKnowsDC @dejonpaul_ Yea but bounce isn't really a lifestyle is it ? LA has this culture of sitting around and repping blocks, colorizing it then killing yourselfs based off those colors. Most ppl in the world don't live like that. Is not that dey forget their neighborhoods but dey not doing all that

@dejonpaul_ - How do you move past something that’s embedded in your culture? - You ever think they ok with it and that some artist are fine having a niche audience. That’s like telling New Orleans artist to move past Bounce to be accepted by the masses. People like what they like.

LA rap really can’t move past the gang banging music and aesthetic. When people outside of California see this, they’re gonna be like there go them LA rap niggas doing the same ole shit since the 90’s. Then y’all wonder why y’all can’t tour in the South, Mid-West, and East Coast.

@BLNKSPTT @WhoisHendough Niggas be acting like boys wasn't really out here burn CDs and bootleggers where very common. Lime wire and all types of apps also existed, plus I can't track how many times songs are actually being interacted with

@WhoisHendough Streaming is free Gyms can stream it, Malls can stream it, NBA soundtracks can stream it, radio can stream it, Stan’s can have streaming parties (like yall do) and more Back in the day you either paid money for it or you didn’t and getting people to invest album money is deep

1500 streams=1 sale 1 CD= 1 sale 1 vinyl=1 sale So tell me how its easier for drake to get these #1 albums and singles this year with almost no radio play

@CurNon341291 @WhoisHendough Goofy listening to a clip video doesn't count as a stream cuz your not on a streaming platform 😭 also 30 secs of 1500 not 30 secs of 1. So you have to listen for 30 secs at least 1000 times nigga shit then you might as well just play the entire album who got time for that.

@WhoisHendough 1 stream = 30s of a track played (could be an algorithm playlist recommendation) 2500 ad supported streams = 1 sale 1000 paid subscription streams = 1 sale Drake uses clipping where they pay influencers to post his new songs on social media and make them go viral.

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid Bro you are typing nonsense. The same way u don't think is classic is the same way someone from that 800 m club would b looking at you nuts. What you think is making them listen to it so much. Why are u typing nonsense. Your shit can barely get to 200 M but it's classic tho 😂

@BaelSam @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid You the type of dude that would say Justin beiber yummy is a classic because it got 800 million views on YouTube lmaoooooo .

Reasonable Doubt is considered a classic rap album but its last Hot 100 entry was in 1997 Meanwhile, Drake's albums from 2011-2013 are still charting every week like they dropped yesterday. You can't say something is a classic or the greatest album when you niggas NEVER revisit it. You guys are performative hip-hop fans

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid And THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO KEEP IT NICHE, when it has gone global. Legacy media is dead that's why they can't promote an album nowadays. Don't tell me ur jazz album is classic whereas one that's still charting and streaming more on the jazz charts decades later isn't

@BaelSam @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid Hip hop when nas and jay z came out WAS NICHE that’s what you not understanding. Complex and all these music publications review best hip hop albums ever and they point to WHAT ?. Reasonable doubt ,Wu tang ,illmatic , the purple tape .YOUR GOAT would say those albums are classics

@Charles93384004 @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy 😂 it wasn't a diss, but you said they've been jabbing at each other ever since ? So why were they taking jabs at each other. Your a dummy am no longer responding to you. You are a D student at best with an IQ of a rat mole

@BaelSam @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy control was never a diss in the first place by the way so he still did it first. Drake was mad that it wasn't a diss because Kendrick after control came up to him friendly, because again it was not a diss. no ones rewriting anything I'm telling you what happened

I “stream” because Drake is genuinely my favorite artist of all time goofy ass nigga. Yall just got here in 2024.

@Charles93384004 @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy Ok like I said, rewriting narratives to suit an agenda is a thing and you my friend are doing just that. Drake never mentioned Kendrick in a negative light UNTIL CONTROL. That nigga wasn't even as hot as meek then and came up talking bout wanting to kill niggas. Midget as hater

@BaelSam @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy just loud wrong and ignorant lmfao

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid Stop telling me shit is classic when the stats show it isn't revisited then say oh MJ, Eminem and BoB are blah blah blah. Nigga they were humans like everyone else and their music isn't niche or specific to a select group of ppl. THE SHIT IS TIMELESS. we have stats backing it up

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid What you don't understand is if you play your so called classics to someone who loves music but isn't familiar with that specific niche or specific time frame. They aren't special to them. Music needs to be timeless. That hook. Or verse or instrumental

@Charles93384004 @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy Dawg shut your ass up. The first person to ever call somebody out was Kdot in 2016 after they don brought his ass on tour and given him verses. Y'all niggas rewrite the shit so much. Drake was focused on his deal and talking bout going on a break. That midget came out of no where

@BaelSam @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy when i meant one sided i meant specifically only Kendrick and drake, and that the beef wasn't fueled by just one person it was mutual for years. Drake has been sneak dissing Kendrick for 60% of his career and vice versa. It wasn't out of no where.

@Charles93384004 @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy You know, some things aren't worth arguing because some fan bases are just in denial. No body did shit to that nigga. What was his cause ? If it wasn't one sided why where they ganging up on cuz, Superbowl, Grammys, Betrayals,UMG Bots, why are y'all now trying to rewrite history

@BaelSam @BuzzMeDude @playpizzyy it wasnt out of no where nor was it one sided

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid Micheal has 2 Albums charting 30 years later. One of my fav albums ever is Kanye Graduation. That’s still on the charts. I still revisit that album. So is Eminem curtain call, Bob Marley, etc what’s jays excuse ? He’s the supposed goat !!

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid Dude stop!! Seriously your not making it look good. 275 mill in 30 years when there isnt drake album not doing billions in streams. And stop asking AI stupid questions and find real sources. Look at the rap charts. If that album does those numbers it will still b charting

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid And since you keep talking bout this streaming thing, bro get over it. We in different eras. The simple truth is that those albums u named don't chart no more because NO ONE REVISITS them. Drakes first 2 Albums were not in streaming era and they still chart 10+ years later.

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid You said a load of nonsense. In all these paragraphs you gave no valid point. U said BS bro that makes me feel like am debating someone who doesn't have sense. What do think made MJ so great. It was his Music dummy. And Drake's music is showing that it too is that good.

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid CAP !! which Jay-Z YouTube video has 1 billion views on YouTube ? Niggas could pop a vinyl out on some nostalgic shit, but ain't no one ridding round playing CDs in their cars nowadays. Ain't no DJs using cds either and if so, MJ came out in the 80s, why does he still chart ??

@BaelSam @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid I said JUST THROUGH dsps . They’ll watch YouTube , still listen to the radio , some of them use vinyls , and yes some still use cd players lmaoooo deadass . And I’m not apart of that classic conversation . I think drake got some .

@Jerzy01k @PopBase But you are online pray for drakes downfall and I’m obsessed? You ain’t got no one you can put up to compete with him it’s don’t even got be kdot but you still wanna discredit him and wish he fails. YOU ARE A HATER !!

@BaelSam @PopBase Move your obsessional a$$ somewhere else my boy. I never mentioned Kendrick. Don’t care about their beef and it ain’t gonna change anytime soon. I am, therefore, speaking of facts. Sorry if you can’t see through it

Drake makes history as the first artist in history to simultaneously hold the entire Top 3 of the Billboard 200.

@gidoffmydyck @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid They don't consume music through dsps ? What they got CD players. Oh ok how about MJ, the Beatles? They seem to still make the charts decades later ? Y'all the one who started the classic argument. How can the boy not have one when his shit charts decades later and y'all's don't

@BaelSam @sputnikswe @keep6ixsolid Because 1 … the people who grew up on that album don’t consume music just through dsps and 2 drakes generation did … you can’t say these shits ain’t classic but drake and all the modern rappers are still sampling them and trying to remix classic songs lol .

@CFCToni19 @takeraqs @keep6ixsolid Wait I am confused? So drake dropped Take care in 2011. Still charts decades later. MJ dropped thriller in the 80s still charts decades later. What's the excuse for HOV,The genre is diff ? Brah gimme a break. Eras change, drake adapted and continues to shine. What's Jay's excuse

@takeraqs @BaelSam @keep6ixsolid Nth but facts
