+ At this point in his career you literally have rappers/labels coming to Drake if they want to eat off a hit. 9/10 of these tracks would be duds without his involvement

+ Has yet to take a L in a beef even though he has dissed or been dissed by Ye, Hov, Pusha, Luda, Chris Brown(:heh:) and Common. He is also by far the easiest target yet no one has taken any effective shots

+He already has a classic hip hop phrase.(this isn't really a point more of a :salute: for that)

+ The highest selling artist of this era at the moment

+ All of his tapes and albums have seen relatively favorable ratings. Take Care, So Far Gone, and Room For Improvement in particular turned some heads.

+ Every album he dropped is platinum. With a gold EP

+ Every single one of his singles charted and ended up either plat or gold.

+ Club Paradise tour brought in 40 million. He also brought along a lot of dudes which is a good look to me.


If he can keep this up for another couple of years it might be undeniable. :manny:

I hear you OP. Hate all you want but dude is one of the handful of n*ggas guaranteeing qaulity right now. Commercially he's sh*ttin on everyone barring Wayne and Eminem (which is nothing to be ashamed about) and he don't oversaturate us with material like them MMG n*ggas.

He's not far off the top already.

Average shelf life of a music artist is five years.....

I don't see him falling off by 2014 at this rate. Technically he has been around far longer, but he wasn't nearly as popular until So far gone so I'll start from there. I just think it's significant the type of stuff he is doing in this type of industry. If sales were still like how they were in the 90s and early 2000s imagine how much he would be selling:yeshrug:
