QUOTE(T Boy @ Feb 17 2018, 08:47 PM) Baby One More Time was a tune though? And how did they market it exactly? Everything about it was based on style/ looks, so it IS one metric when talking aboot musicians, as we've seen them base whole careers around it Drake's average voice, rap, looks, etc, do not compete with loads of others out there |

Lots of artists are good looking and use that fact to attempt to sell their music though. Doesn’t always work.
Besides, I’d wager the majority of people that bought BOMT didnt do so because they fancied Britney. Not everyone is shallow minded. |

Speaking for myself, I find the lyrics in a lot of Drake songs very relatable. Songs like 'Passionfruit', 'With You' and 'Take Care' in particular.

Most people don’t know who wheelchair Jimmy is. He’s made music that connects with people. Just stop trying to rationalise the success of music you don’t like. I don’t care if you’re buddy or charmed of t seet, you do not have superior music taste to anyone else, and people listen to the music they like. |

"God's Plan" is God-awful but Drake has had some great mainstream tracks in the past... "Hotline Bling", "One Dance", "Passionfruit", "Find Your Love", "Hold On, We're Going Home" etc. He's got a very distinct sound and has built a following. Hence why we're being put through one of the worst number 1s in ages now. But some obviously like it, just like Geri Halliwell fans liked "Bag It Up".

Bitch, stop coming for me He got to where he is to even get to make it because of past fame!! That's what let him break through over better rappers - what don't you get about that? Wheelchair Jimmy was far more famous in the US anyway - which let him break through 'Rihanna, who do you want, this guy who is already famous, or this unknown rapper?' 'Hmm' 'Record producers, he is already famous, or you can have this unknown rapper' 'Hmmm' |

'Hmm' 'Record producers, he is already famous, or you can have this unknown rapper' 'Hmmm' Yeah but so what to all of that? Why shouldn’t he use any platform possible to get ahead? Any singer would, it’s not easy out there. The fact is, people are enjoying Drake’s music. If he was truly as objectively awful as you are trying to force everyone to believe, he wouldn’t be so successful. You literally give the music loving public no credit. They can think for themselves and can choose what to listen to. |
