All it took was a few rumors and an Instagram post to create promotion. Their collaboration was meant to be a huge event, two stars colliding to create a sun that we couldn’t help but stare at, not really the second coming of the Throne. Future was having the year of his career, the all-seeing 6ix God positioned himself with a flourishing star that had a similar hold on the internet.
Future is the perfect example, Drake is the sole feature on DS2. Perfecting the art of wave riding is keeping Drake walking on water. He has yet to crack, moving like the all-powerful god he portrays himself to be. Popularity is his Excalibur, if he loses the sword, he loses his dominance. It’s impressive that Drake hasn't folded under the pressure, the collapse of Cash Money forced him to make moves for relevance. That’s what Views From The Six could be for Drake, that’s what could be holding him back. Imagine a world where Lil Wayne couldn’t release Tha Carter III, the biggest moment of his career wouldn’t exist. Seeing Wayne reduced to just another artist unable to get his album release killed so much of his mystique. Birdman went from treating him like a son to how 50 Cent treated Young Buck, shackled to the paperwork.

Not only is Wayne unable to release his long-awaited album, he wasn’t able to sustain momentum with the releases of Sorry For The Wait and The Free Weezy Album. His only option is to take his expertise of the courtroom, a place he’s visited so often I consider it a home court advantage for him. What if Rich Homie Quan was meant to replace Drake the same way Thug was meant to be Wayne? Quan has proven he can make hits and kill hooks, it’s possible that Rich Gang’s purpose was to fill the void left by Wayne and Drake that Birdman saw coming? Except, Birdman lost both of his prospects before he could get them on papers. Even after devouring the mixtapes, people haven’t once forgot about Views, no matter how good the appetizers, there’s always enough room for the main course.īirdman proved he would attempt to replace Wayne with a doppelganger before ever releasing Tha Carter V. The people see Views From The Six as the album that will be the undisputed classic, his magnum opus, the Mona Lisa of his catalog. He first announced the title in July of 2014, since then he has been in overdrive with branding and solidifying a demand that guarantees a fruitful commercial success. The two mixtapes ( IYRTITL and WATTBA), OVO Sound Radio, the remixes, even the beef with Meek were strategic maneuvers building up for a grandiose checkmate, Views From The Six. Month after month, day after day, Drake is at the tip of every tongue, tweeted about by every thumb, every move and release seems to be made with the thoughtful calculation of a chess master. Drizzy is completely unrivaled, commercially eclipsing any and every one.
Best rapper is a title we can debate but most popular isn’t. He has officially become a conqueror, hip-hop’s Julius Caesar, even the Ides of Meek couldn’t end his reign. Domination is the word to describe the year Drake is having.
