Why didn't Kenny collab with any major up and coming artist from the south 
Apparently, Drake put the Migos on and brought Atlanta back to life

The bolded is why I shouldn't even entertain what you're saying but I'll do it anyways
Versace dropped in 2013, that was their breakout in the mainstream. Some would argue they were buzzing back in 2012.
They dropped countless hit platinum singles between then and their last album Culture 3 in 2021(album underperformed but produced 2 platinum singles). Their peak was 2018 with Culture 2(which sold more than Culture 1 so you're wrong) but to act like they became irrelevant and wasn't a factor after that is bullshyt, especially considering they all had their shyt they did outside of the group as well.
They had a longer run as a relevant hitmaking rap group than the vast majority of groups in rap history.

I’m not a Migos guy at all but I’ll go to my ATL guys( since I’m from Augusta) Wouldn’t Migos have made it with or without Drake? I feel like that’s the case. Him jumping on that remix was definitely good for them though.
I'm pretty sure he had no clue other irrelevant cats would be dissing Drake on that album when he layed the verse too.
Drake stole their flow and slang on that song.
And not only did he jack their flow and lingo he actually bragged about it in his verse

Drake don't know shyt about that
A lot of remixes have the guest rapping in the style of the original and even using the slang. Its not that far fetched or even a violation. Imagine if Jay Z's "Ha" verse would've been a huge improvement had he kept with the style of the original instead of doing whatever it was he was doing.
And to say Drake was biting flows and longo when he had writers, and one of the most botable ones is from Atlanta, is just dumb.
I don't see why people would argue aginst this all while admitting Drake gave the song a bigger platform. "Versace" was already a hot song, but it became bigger. I don't know where this he brought Atlanta back came from though. And a lot of the timelines are off in here.
And then people rewrite history loke they've never seen artists hop on a hot song before unofficially.
Drake is corny and has been dropping wack music for years, but there was definitely a time when a Drake verse put more ears onto a song or artist.

He has his own wave and doesn't need to attach himself to street artists to remain relevant in the culture. Drake doesn't have a real identity and Kendrick broke that down perfectly on Not Like Us.
