I like him for some songs on If you're reading this it's too late and back to back.

The mainstream loves him because he blends pop/r&b/Hip-hop in a really digestible package. Also because he's a sex symbol and he's subject to a lot of memes.
>>
My friends think some of his verses are "fire" and "emotional" for a rapper. Don't particularly agree with them.

as a fan of some of drake's music, i really dont got a convicing reason.

the beats and his flow i guess, and he is good music to get laid to, listen to Take Care and form your own opinion
>>
>>61867224
He releases music that many enjoy, that's probably why.

>>61867241
How?

>>61867664
I like that song too.

>>61867802
Imo, the mainstream doesn't really put that much thought into it, but that's probably the underlying reason.

>>61867807
I've heard similar, although I've literally never heard the adjective 'fire' used for anything other than cannabis.

>he is good music to get laid to
gay as fuck desu senpai

i respect drake because he can sing really well.

i dont like his more rappy things, where he's tryign to sound more ghetto. but everything he does works on some level

and despite having a real nice voice he never sounds overly effeminate , which alot of black singers fall into

It's really really approachable. It does well to stay unique while not sounding painfully generic.

Take Care gets a lot of praise because it's relatable to the average person. Pretty much everyone, whether they're a pleb or a patrician, can whack on Take Care when they're sad over a breakup or some shit and feel the feels with Drake.

I don't really get the hype with the "hard" Drake that we've been getting recently. Slower/emotional Drake is best Drake. It's the only Drake worth listening to desu.

It's emotional when you're in that "I feel sad about my ex" type mood that you randomly get out of nowhere.

Marvin's Room is perfect for those situations desu.

Nice post

>>61867224
He appeals to young liberals and epitomizes the 'new generation' (weed, being chill, phones, sex, etc)

In other words, cancer that should stay on reddit and far away from 4chan
>>
>>61867224
he's cool for the same reasons elvis costello was in the 80s

Part good writers and producers, part good marketing, part decent voice. That's it. Seriously.

>inb4 "meek mill pls go"

If you think that "feud" was anything more than drakes handlers paying for Facebook and instagram maymays to get spread around saying he won, u r so stupid and should b very embarrassed.

Music aside for a moment, people really like how he represents for Toronto. Not only does he talk about it in his songs, but he does a lot for his city.

Not a huge Drake fan myself, but can definitely see why people respect him for that and how that fuels his popularity.

>how he 'represents' for Toronto
Jesus Christ the white race is pathetic
>>
>>61867241
This honestly. Drake is popular because he is one of the first celebrities to market himself through memes. He sells people a chance to pretend they're in on some secret joke (even though literally millions of people are in on it), and the idiots eat it up every time.
