    Why is that people keep looking over Champagne Papi's greatness? I hear records like Jungle and it sounds like grown folk music that I could be listening to in my 50s while my wife and I try to start up our sex life again. Out of all the artists with their own section, Papi has the potential to have the most longevity. He's versatile as f---, I can see him switching into RnB at 40 and still be selling out arenas in his 50s and 60s. He could become a modern day Marvin Gaye or Prince. He's stayed consistent throughout his career and never disappoints.

    Yeah, I think that's part of the reason. I'm not a tough guy, but I've been through some rough times. However, I'm not gonna deny that I tear up a little every time Good Ones Go comes on. That's where part of the greatness comes, Drake can make you cry on one song, and then keep it trill on the next one. Let's not forget he's been engaged the most beefs recently. In recent years, he's beefed with Breezy, Common, and Kendrick.

    That's the thing, Drake makes you think about stuff. I love artist like Thug and Weezy, but I can't listen to them at night when I'm all alone on my bed. Listening to records like Take Care is an intimate experience that makes you think and reflect upon yourself.

    He definitely doesn't get enough credit here. So Far Gone, TML, TC, NWTS, IYRTITL all very good-classic projects. I can honestly say I've never heard a bad Drake song. He's been great for like 7 years now. How many of the other artists with sections can say that?

    Always liked Drake's music, when I hear someone say "he's comfortable" I don't get it, because if his music works, why try to repair it?

    Real talk though, maybe his consistency has bored people? Take an artist like Wayne for example, he's been pretty up and down as of late. I can see the appeal in waiting for a new Wayne project since you're not sure in which direction it will go, FWA is great, but you still don't know if he's gonna be able to keep it up for this next album due to his recent inconsistency. It's exciting. But I guess people know Drake will deliver so they're not as hyped?

    Possible, but it's such a great feeling knowing VF6 will be great

    everyone where i live feels the same about Drake. when he's come with his tour here i hear dudes and girls talk about going with the same excitement. i feel like everywhere i go online it's not like that. and i dont understand it. he remains relevant yet almost no one admits to liking him? someone lying. and it's probably bc of him being "sensitive" but he has that and also some bangers. like with IYRTITL you're still getting both sides, when i wanna get hype i listen to 10 bands, 6 man or energy etc. but then when im driving late at night in my feelings i go to jungle, company and now and forever. he's just so versatile and people hate to admit it.

    Actually, the majority of the forum like Drake. I'd say more of the internet like him in general in comparison to a while ago as well.
    I think it's just that his last project wasn't that great. It was good, but it was pretty uninspired and wasn't anything that special. It was kinda just Drake being Drake but a notch below the NWTS era. Also, there's just not much hype for his new album yet because he's been relatively quiet about it.

    from what i've seen in my short time here, no it's only like 5 people. and i saw the stats a couple weeks ago for his section or whatever and it's the same it's so inactive. but i wasnt talking about just the forum, on twitter too. i always get s--- for praising him so much.
