All these rappers blew or were gonna blow with or without Drake.

He gave a "stimulus" to them after they got hot. I get if you were talking about Gucci/Wayne but Drake lol
:dahell:
You cant say this because this never happened and they were with Drake at some point and even though Cole was established he still helped him get his first number 1 same with Travis.

I’ll give yall lil baby, future, thug

Kendrick- buried alive and the club paradise tour
Rocky- fukking problems was a hit, plus brought him on tour
Migos- Versace


Kendrick and Asap were already primed to blow. Snoop, Dre, and Game literally stood on stage and anointed Kendrick. Without Drake and that tour both of them would’ve been successful which is evidenced by neither of them working with him after their first albums

While that’s true.. I heard of Kendrick but didn’t bump his stuff until I heard burried alive.

With Asap I’m from New York and didn’t hear about him until people was telling me drake was bringing a nikka from Harlem with him.

Then I heard Pesso .. what I’m saying may not be typical but it was drake who helped me hear about them more

This 2011 take care drake so keep that in mind

They gave Kendrick the west coast but Drake helped put Kendrick on the world stage by putting him on his biggest album ever with a track all to himself. Plus made him known throughout North America with the club paradise tour. I don’t know if you from the west coast but west coast nikkaz are literally in they own world.

Interscope made Kendrick pop.

To this day you cannot convince me Swimming Pools is a club and radio hit :mindblown: . But after The Recipe flopped, payola went into overdrive.

Rocky had a fire ass mixtape. And was buzzing hard. Not to mention his whole crew was kinda plugged into the fashion scene in NY.

Him taking them on tour was a great look for all 3 of them. They had some overlapping fans and they all got new ones.

He was the bigger artist so he brought two of the hottest artist right under him at the time out on tour.

He always had popular acts with him. Remember Club Paradise?

fukkin Problems was the biggest record both Rocky and Kendrick had at that time and guess who was on it? Swimming Pools didn’t chart anywhere as high as fukkin Problems did for Kendrick.
