    1. Must suck for his kid when he sees his mum naked on the internet and finds out his dad tried to have I’m aborted. One love.

            1. Hahahaha. That “so can god” was genius, fam. So the God’s Plan shit someone wrote for Frake was fictional bible thumping too? Hahahaha

            2. Anybody running their mouth about a fictional character and trying to use it to dictate how other people live their lives is a bible thumping scum bag.

      1. Just like all these other regular baby mommas who work nowhere . There pussies are all over the net . Our on video text who cares about who he has kids with lame

    2. Damn he outsold all them GOOD “albums” combined. I haven’t heard any of them or Scorpion yet though, all that shit trash

      1. Ye has 7X the Grammys and 3X the money Drake does. Plus he never hid a kid with a pornstar nor wore blackface. He also openly talks about people who write with him. I guess you’re not really sure what the word “loss” means…

          1. Out of all of that, you’re only comment is “what do you care about him raw dogging a porn star, then telling her to have an abortion, then pretend to Ben I. The kids life for an adidas shoot to cash out? Hahahaha. Fucking loser.

        1. Idk I’d say Kim is a porn star. Her only claim to fame was a “leaked” sex tape. Honestly who on this site or the internet in general knew who the fuck she was before that tape.

        2. Kanye has 2 kids with a pornstar, and how do u know how much money they have? Drake is on track to pass them all.. none of these dudes had Drakes money when they were his age

    3. Good for him, but these just shows lil wayne is the goat when it comes to mainstream type of hip hop, carter 3 sold 1 million his first week after he had to make new music because the original songs leaked. Without him there would be no drake. But drake is definitely the biggest rapper right now.

            1. And some one opened the door for him and some one for him . What’s ur point. ? We got great artist now and a lot of kid shit . I’m not a kid so I listen to the shit that I like. The rest I ignore like for ex. The note book, precious, broke back mt, never seen them but I’m not going to be mad at the movie or the people who make money from it or the people who enjoy it.

      1. Nah, Views is still his worst. Shit was boring as fuck to listen to. Drake himself sounded bored on most of the songs as well.

    4. The better question is wtf are you so in your feelings about it? What Drake sells or doesnt sell means nothing to you but you type with so much emphasis like your name is Adidon or something. He has a black dad and a white mom so that would explain him being able to juggle both cultures and, also, your mom is an industry whore/meth lab gutter rat and Im gonna fuck you up like last time I saw you, pussy bwoi

      1. Hahahaha. Wogwon (Gaynadian fake Jamaican accent). Please. Real ting. Hahahaha. Canadians are taking the Hip-Hop cosplay shit too seriously. I mean… blackface? Stripper raw dogging? You suck at pretending to be something you’re not. We all see thru it.

    5. Damn I thought I was the only one that noticed that drake sounds white when he’s around white people and switches up and sounds black when around black people and on songs.

    6. Bow down you hipster nerd haters. Bow down to the god of rap. All you old heads need to accept that these old rappers are irrelevant. Drake is the only rapper the mainstreem listens too. He is the face of rap and u stuck in the 90 baggy jean wearing losers need to accept that.

      1. He said hipster haters… hahahaha. That clown Grayke is the king of hipster shit. Homo.

      2. Yeah. Kanye, Dre, Jay-Z. All of those losers that have more money than Drake, more Grammys and have sold more REAL albums, not virtual click farm bullshit. All losers. You’re a winner working at seven eleven doing your best fake Jamaican accent. Real ting, ya heard?

    7. …yeah. So I guess the Drake haters should (but they won’t) cease and desist the bullshit talk about Pusha T “ending Drake’s career” If it’s still not evident by the numbers, I can’t help you. That shit was 100% ineffective. And I’m not even a Drake fan. Poor Push thought he was 50 Cent and Drake was Ja Rule. Nope…

      1. I co-sign my man. But I actually like drake. Not an absolute fan but I do appreciate his art. But what you said is the point and why I’m responding. You’re spot on jack.

    8. Honestly drake shoulda just had some ghostwriters write this whole thing because this shit average af you can tell drake wrote it.

      1. Award sweep? Dude has 3 Grammys. Hahahaha. Kanye has 21… Please shut your uniformed ass the fuck up…

        1. How do you support this garbage? In all the other generations of music you’ve heard, have you ever come across someone cries this much. In the past artists battled racism and poverty and they were still men. This guy is a Jewish kid who had everything handed to him and all he does is cry. How can you represent that without completely hating yourself? On second that maybe that’s just it

    9. I’m loving all this focus on an “under performance” in sales… IT’S A DOUBLE ALBUM. Every record sale counts as two for Billboard and the RIAA certification.

    10. No surprise here Drake is more of entertainer but still respected by a lot of elite rappers…may not be a great lyricist/freestyles but he usually makes a good hook to even out the song.

    11. I’m not a huge fan of Drake but you have given props when their due. This is his best rap album (side A) in my opinion, so let the guy have his shine

    12. According to Billboard, Scorpion’s debut coincides with the Billboard 200’s first week of employing an updated weighting formula for on-demand audio streams, giving greater emphasis to paid subscription streams.

      Which means it will be more difficult for have big numbers now than when streaming started, this is even more impressive now.

    13. 1500 hundred streams equals 1 album now hahah, numbers are washed , drake album is the definition of hot garbage lol

        1. whats the need for crying the album is hot garbage that doesnt change the fact because u wrote a little post that u thought wa witty hahaha

        2. Great response! Did you think you were being witty? Face it, your life was, is and always will be meaningless when that’s the level of intelligence you have. It must be hard living a life where most options are closed to you, given your rampant ignorance. I suppose that’s why you latch on to a talentless whiner. If he can make it, maybe you can too?

    14. Record sales mean absolutely nothing to show talent. By that logic, MC hammer is top 10 rapper of all time.
      FACTS!!

    15. Real artist don’t care about sales they care about making quality music. If they get paid while doing it so be it real artist make their money on shows anyway case in point Currensy he’s not popping like everyone else main stream wise but he will sell out a show just the same.

    16. would be dope if he wrote it ,but like his flows it changes from who ever ghost wrote it, one days hes jamaican then hes black from the south then he real jewish infant of other jewish people , then he acts white infront of white people lol , u dont even know who this clown really is hahaha

    17. How are you kids not ashamed of yourselves for propping up this whiner? Don’t you have any respect for yourselves or your manhood?What other generation would idolize this sissy who cries about anything and everything that’s ever happened to him. If you guys are the future, we’re doomed.

    18. Got to hand it to Drake, he has gone the way of Nicki Minaj and made himself into a pop star. All of the colonizers have supported his music and made him who he is, but when it comes to that smoke? #PUSH – Also, this album is all the way trash FR. People listened to it to see where he was going to go at PUSH, and he was too scared to come outside and play.
