Kendrick Lamar breaks his own record for HIGHEST-GROSSING show ever from a rapper with $9.44M. Drake could NEVER.

Billboard themselves said Kendrick was bigger than Drake, and has been for at least 10 years. Drake just releases more music and targets the pop audience a lot more. Thats it.

Kendrick has the 2nd biggest album of the century, ahead of any drake album.
kendrick has the best selling rap song ever, and the 3 best selling rap songs will soon be all Kendrick.
Kendrick has the longuest chartin rap album ever.
Kendrick has concert records.
...

The only thing Drake has is more "global streams" due to him having near 600 songs available on streaming, versus less than 300 for Kendrick.

The last time Drake and Kendrick dropped an album the same year, Kendrick outsold him. He been avoiding the Kendrick confrontation ever since.

Kendrick is bigger than Drake when he adopts a more commercial oriented sound.
I simply disagree the numbers can do one thing but off sheer volume he’s bigger that matters

Drake has songs that legit non-hip hop fans love such as Once Dance and Controlla and Hold On and Grapefruit.

Kendrick doesn’t sell his soul like Drake does though.

Drake should keep it commercial/introspective and stop tryna be a fake gangster cause his new music has sucked for almost 10-12 years now.

Not to mention, on his last big arena tour a couple years... Drake did like 4 nights in every city instead of doing a stadium tour. From what I understand, the costs of doing arena concerts is way cheaper than doing stadiums. So guaranteed, Drake made bigger profits in each city on his 2023 tour than Kendrick is doing on this stadium tour.
It is. Thats why Travis did all those stadiums and still was behind drake by like $100M.

You can have lower tix sales but higher door numbers.

Plus, kendrick is splitting with sza…and she’s gotta be asking for at least 40-50%…if she’s smart.

Drake uses ghostwriters and makes music as if he’s 21. He chases Billboard numbers instead of making great art. He going out sad as hell. 😢
