So your saying Drake is a "Ja Rule, 50, Nelly". Hot for about 3 years, sales decline and that's it? Well if that's the case he should be looking to get into acting cause that's how he got his start. He did the voice thing on "Ice Age 4" but I think he should start getting into movies. But Drake's Sales did increase on "Take Care" though:


Take Care: 1.8 Million
Marvin's Room: Gold
Headlines: Plat
I'm so Proud: Plat
The Motto: 2x Plat
Take Care: 2x Plat
Hyfr: Gold

So his fanbase is with him. If he did leave they would follow him so I think he can squeeze out maybe 1 more Plat album but I don't see the 3rd album getting up to 1.8.

Lil wayne association is whaat MADE his career. If there was no weezy Drake wouldnt have even been able to crossover into the American music market. There are tons of talent in Canada. How come you never hear em?

Cause we dont give a fukk :heh:


Drake owes everything to weezy, the way the weeknd owes everything to Drake. The way Beiber owes everything to Ush.


Its kinda weird tho, how the weeknd didnt sign to Ovo but Universal instead. The weeknd would of been a excellent premier artist.

I understand that but 50, Ja and Nelly weren't really "HOT" for 5 straight years, they were scorching for 3 and the other 2 were the decline. Drake dropped in Summer of 2009 commercially so it's been 3 years and now I feel he's at his peak. So by that theory his decline will start on this 3rd album and forward. Drake is prepping his next LP for 2013.

The point was to get The Weeknd signed 1st. He was basically unsigned hype making money off tours and a few Drake features. Drake helped to get him a deal so he could make some money off his "Free" mixtapes. OVO isn't a label, The Aaliyah album was suppose to break the label in but again it's on hold.
