I realize most people in this forum might be out of touch with today's music.... but is there any artist that is better than Drake?

I'll answer the question with no. And I won't accept any other answers. The man has been on top of the hip hop game for a a decade plus and has no signs of slowing down. He continues to out do himself and it's insane how many hits he comes out with.

Let the hate begin

Sure when it comes to a Top 40 station replaying the same crap over and over all day, maybe Drake is in the upper echelon. He's clearly tapped into a formula that works.

But calling him the best artist out there today is one of the more hilarious things I've seen posted here, particularly right after insulting everyone on the board

Taylor Swift is the one of the best artist today. Drake comes no where near her.

Even Sir Paul McCartney agrees

This is the best thing Drake has ever done:



But every one of his songs have started sounding the same to me. He needs to learn some different flows.

Have you heard his grime songs? The man can do southern rap, east coast rap, grime, pop, rap like a jamaican, reggae, rap, sing, rnb. I can understand hating on drake, but not for his flows. The guy switches his flow up on every song.

These are the two best Drake grime songs. He does it surprisingly well. Hes friends with all those UK grime rappers and is a big fan.

Artist?

I'm still in the camp that Willie Nelson is an artist and George Strait is an entertainer. Both great just different.

If you base it on sales, influence, awards, streams, etc., Drake's definitely a top 10 "artist" from the last decade by any measure. Probably top 4 along with Ed Sheeran, Beyonce, and Taylor Swift if you account for everything.

Drake is an icon for sure. So are the others, if for different reasons. Ed Sheeran is the most-listened to and has the highest grossing/attended tours in history. Beyonce is a cultural icon. Taylor Swift has 7 #1 albums in the last 10 years and is the highest grossing female artist over that time period. She also writes her own songs.

With that said, Scary Hours 2 is pretty good and the run he's been on is pretty impressive. I think he's in his later prime right now.

The only Drake song I've heard of is Gods Plan. And that's because my son plays it on the piano.

If you'd just inserted "With all due respect" at the beginning, all of this could have been avoided.

Mumbling while sounding like you're on codeine. No better form of art in world history.

The only thing I know about drake is that I think he's the dude that was friends with Johnny?

Maybe that was someone else.

Tbh I would make the assumption most people on TexAgs still listens to **** George Strait and Willie Nelson puts out (which is hilarious enough in itself). So don't come at me like I'm a ****ing idiot when clearly this thread proves I'm not wrong. If you are listening to a top 40 station then you obviously don't know what the **** you're talking about. Ever heard of Sandra's Rose?? Furthest Thing?? Too Much(which is about the city of HOUSTON)??? Then to top off your top 40... you ever heard of the producer 40(which had won multiple awards for his production)?? Didn't think so. And that alone let's me know that you know absolutely nothing about Drake. Don't start throwing shots when you clearly haven't listened to enough of his work. Oh BTW Scary Hours pt 2 is on track to sell 110k this week which is unheard of for a 3 song EP. So obviously I don't know what the **** I'm talking about.

Oh also every Drake album has gone #1 for multiple weeks/months except Dark Lane Demo Tapes (throwaway tracks) and that's cause your boy Chesney was counting album sales with ticket sales for a tour that was never going to happen (COVID). What's next?

This song hit number one and was the first to ever reach a million downloads, and was nominated for/won awards:


That should give you an idea how relevant any of what you posted is in a discussion of good or bad. If you want to say Drake is a money machine, sure, undoubtedly. His music still isn't good.

Drake's best work artistically was rolling around in a wheelchair in Canada. It's been all downhill since.
