LOL comparing Drake to Lil Nas X. Give me a break. Drake received a whopping 37.1 million streams across all his songs on Spotify for 6/28. He was the 20th most streamed artist on the platform higher than Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, Dua Lipa, Post Malone - and.....drum roll - Kendrick Lamar. Definitely not comparable to Lil Nas X, but I'd argue that he is higher than those artists due to sheer volume. For example, he didn't have any song cross 1 million streams daily last week on Spotify... Plus, For All The Dogs has been descending the charts since this beef started. I still think it's exaggerated that Drake will be hurt by this beef, but I do feel like even before this beef, we started to see less Drake dominance than usual. I'm guessing that is totally normal for any artist.

I am interested to see how this beef does affect Drake's career. I don't think it killed it, but I will say Kendrick has effectively made liking Drake "uncool" in ways. Like I routinely see his fans being eaten up/ostracized on social media. I feel like so many of the posts in here are focused on CHARTS (I mean, it's a chart thread, haha). But this is hip-hop. And these beefs are about legitimacy. The best MC, the hottest bars, the culture, etc. Drake got his ass handed to him. And to genuine hip-hop heads and to rap lovers, he absolutely took a hit. Now does this translate to the general public? Probably not. But he definitely lost cool points as you put it. Commercially, he's gonna be fine, but don't think for a second he didn't feel those blows.
