It needs some time. The song hasn't even been out for two days. Relax.
People are waiting with baited breath for him to flop they aren’t even being rational 😂
@safe is this true
It’s doing ok
Significantly better than something like blinding lights
What needs to happen is the popular dance creators need to do the challenge
Then it’ll go 10x as big
I would assume labels already in talks to get them to do it but who knows

People are really surprised that a song that dropped less than 40 hours ago isn't already a viral sensation
Even In My Feelings didn't truly go viral until about 10 days after Scorpion dropped. That's when videos started popping up left and right.

there is a challenge?

Lol there was a challenge a week before the song came out
This gets said about every album Drake is about to drop and it never turns out true. The only fact here is we will get what we are given and that’s that he is cemented at this point in his career he can and will do what he wants tune in or tune out and let the fans enjoy.
Fam, I’m probably the biggest Drake fan I know. I’m tuning in, buying the album, and getting lit when he goes on tour. I like Toosie Slide, but I’m acknowledging that I want more from him on the album. It’s getting a lot of unwarranted backlash, but the backlash is still there and should be acknowledged. He’s a certified goat already but I want this album to be as well received as Take Care, NWTS, or IYTITL. If not more so actually. The nigga has a two year old kid now. This is the first album where his life is actually different from the past 10 years for real. There are endless possibilities for new content surrounding his new reality. Those experiences can and should inform the content of the album cuts (which I’m sure they will) and the hits. Toosie Slide, which I like, does not do this. Issa bop. It bumps in the whip. It’ll probably do hella numbers but I need that fire flame from dude and it just isn’t that.
Song has a radio deal, it will have around 40 million streams and 50 million radio audience impressions by the end of the week which should be enough to compete for #1
You also have to know that he's friends with a lot of designers. A lot of his rich friends hook him up with stuff for free.
That's a fair point
I'm seeing hella tik Tok people under the hashtag doing it. it has only been a little over a day. These things tend to grown. Not instantly reach 1 billion views on the hashtag in a short span of time
The thing is the people who are doing it aren't getting alot of likes on their videos, which is discouraging since that makes it seem like it doesnt have "hype" for others to start hoping on the trend.
This def needs the popular creators to start hoping on it, and they are def waiting for a check to come through before they start doing it lol.
i mean idk how much yall expected it to be relevant but i don't expect anyone will be playing this after everyone does the dance once. Humble had more views on Youtube in one day than this does still

Drake is at the point in his career where everything he does gets hated on and then a couple weeks later when people feel confident enough to form their own opinion they switch and admit they like it and always did. If you’re expecting rave reviews, accolades and unanimous love for anything Drake does you will be disappointed because the hate goes viral and we live in attention whoring times. I too would love for people to listen to music objectively (across the board not just with Drake) and give an honest opinion but unfortunately I think those days are long gone.
Toosie Slide a fun song it wasn’t made to be put on the same level as a When to Day When, Omertà, Chicago Freestyle etc take it for what it is a cheesy song to dance to while we are stuck in the house (the lyrics outside of the dance steps are actually 🔥). This is not my favourite type of song from Drake I don’t like songs that come with a dance but it’s not to be taken as serious as some people are.
plus I dunno why they're calling it a "challenge"..this isnt 2016 twitter anymore, these kids dont do dance "challenges" anymore lol.
Song rides - Although I don’t really dig killa Drake lyrics, the flow and melodies make up for it.
This track a guilty pleasure. I know it's trashy, but the vocal lines are sticky as f*** and those synths are undeniably great.

Drake YouTube views first day never do that well to begin with.

I agree that it’s just a fun song....I was literally just bumping it. I like it a lot. However, as a Drake stan, I can still acknowledge that this was just a layup banger. If it’s just for the moment and a causal number one record then I’m all for it. If it’s on the album then I’ll be slightly disappointed even if it’s only a bonus.

I’m with you there. This song needs to be nowhere near the album I don’t even want it as a bonus song leave it as a stand alone track.

Bringing up Humble 💀💀

lol it’s if it’s a bonus track who cares just delete it or something. It’s not disappointing at all to have this as a bonus
I was thinking abt this and its really risky tbh. It relies on the dance to catch on which is far from guaranteed. Calling it an easy hit is dumb

Kinda like Uzi wanting the futsal shuffle to take off lmfao
