Drake’s hits aren’t as memorable as Michael Jackson’s. True or false?

Different era. How much microwave bullshyt went number 1 the last years? How much of it do we actually cherish and look back at fondly?

Drake can definitely drop a mean Greatest Hits project, but I wonder how many of those records will age gracefully
Marvin room already sounds cringe 10 years later

Memes will definitely impact a song’s legacy, because I don’t even look at that as a real “song” anymore

Brehs still pretending like hit records (and bangers) don't shape people, ensuring they resonate 10+ years later. It's the same metric that existed in the 1950s and before. The most important music of your life is typically the music you listened to when you were hanging out with friends in middle school, got your first kiss, had your first breakup, took your first drive, ditched school to hang with friends for the day, lost a loved one, went on a cool vacation, had a fight with a friend, graduated high school, entered college, went to a campus party, got laid, got a job, etc.

In the late 70s and 80s people said Michael Jackson's new shyt and other pop records wouldn't last because of synthesizers and shyt. Those people are literally wrong every decade so why rush to join that side. If you don't like Drake, fine whatever. But you cannot possible deny his impact or the amount of music from him that people love, from HS students to college kids, over the last decade. That's multiple generations of people who have a favorite era, album, song etc from that man. Whether you think the song is memorable or not is irrelevant. If he's not the artist that is tied to memories for you, surely there's another artist who is.
