Statistically it could end up being someone most people joke about a lot like Russ
Drake won’t have a successor he even said he’s not looking for one in that interview, but he has influenced a lot of rappers and R&B singers male and female as well as helped shine his bright light on to other artists with significantly smaller audiences.
Russ definitely not gonna be the one to get the torch directly from drake
Wonder if anyone on this site would hate drake if his popularity dipped after NWTS.
I’m guessing not.
theyd prob like him more and write essays about how hes underrated

drake stannery would probably be 1000x worse if his career dipped after that. Cuz NWTS and TC are mid projects but they’ll keep holding onto them like they’re classics and that drake is a GOAT when he’s just not even good lol
Last 5 years have kinda made it easier to hate on Drake but I really just see these last 5 years as the clear flaws he had in his music IYRTITL and before, just without any redeeming values now
The better question is: what are the GOAT standards moving forward? As consumption and marketing changes?
We’re in a new era and we should start to see those new stars settled in about a year, so whoever will dominate will be who can fit those new standards for what a mainstream rapper ‘should’ be, just as Drake fit those standards in a post-Grad/Carter III world when he first came in
It’s hard to see right now cause it hasn’t really started so we don’t have the benefit of hindsight
also the industry is wayyy more decentralized than it was back then

This post reeks of delusion and hatred
I can’t imagine it. None of these other dudes got it like drake. Musically or just strategically.
Why do yall say strategic.
Even if that was true everybody in the game right now that came up after him has been inspired BY him
Name 5 people bro.

start naming people
YB, Roddy, Lil Baby, Kodak, etc all have no Drake influence lmao
His only son is Tory somewhat

Nah it will be 100%
Yak could takeover if he gets out sooner tbh, He just needs the right people and producers on his life
hip hop gonna be like the time when the Roman age transitioned into the dark ages. ion even wanna think about it
Like how it is in between drake albums
Same way it looked post everyone else that had influence
Whether you like his music or not he’s the face of rap. I’m wondering who takes the reign and whether Hip hop will seem more watered down without such a self aware figure
Hes the reason it got watered down
Views was the beginning of the end
Hasnt been inspired yet hes the only big rapper thats constantly churning out music instead of focusing on acting or other s***
Now go make a good album again bro
