Drake - The Strings Behind The Man Exposed

[JetFueledThoughts]

Breaks down the J.Cole/Drake Nas/Jay duality that the media pushed, breaks down how he got in.

@hex I remember saying how excited I was for views, and I think you/me were right when we said that it was supposed to his first true Hip Hop album that got scrapped after Meek took his credibility, which is why he went the pop route. He had to.

IYRITL was an experiment to see how people reacted to a majority rap album. People loved it.

Meek really fukked up this nikkas career on some next shyt

Views originally was supposed to be his actual magnum opus. No other reason why he would drop 0-100 in 2014 and 2015 IYRITL , then out of nowhere drops a pop album. It don't make sense.

He was preppin for that harder rap shyt for like 3 years.

Not gonna watch this, but it's well known that short of seeing Drake give a dude a blow job on Live Stream nothing will convince his fans not to support. Even still, they would just spin that to a win and say "You don't suck balls liike that"

Pause this whole post I'm out

Yeah I was gonna say post the shorter vid, basically condensed version of what he was getting at.

His breakdowns were interesting, especially how Drake is supposed to be Em's replacement as far as being Iovine's golden goose.

Sounds like Sway disguising his voice

Him and his police friends destroyed a lot of black lives. He was a fiend.

It was so one sided, regardless of Meek's lackluster response, it was too much for there not to be people protecting his image.

He literally is super corporate because he's the first "too big to fail" "rapper"

"this video is too long"
"im not watching this "
"bu bu but why is this featured "
" what lame takes the time to do a voiceover for a youtube video "
