Charlamagne Tha God doesn’t feel Drake reigns supreme in the music industry any longer, and Kevin Durant finds that sentiment hilarious.
In a new episode of his Brilliant Idiots podcast, Charlamagne explained he wasn’t interested in Drizzy’s forthcoming Certified Lover Boy album because he feels like Drake has oversaturated the market. To the radio host, it hasn’t been Drake’s season now for at least a few years and he wonders if he even has anything different to offer.
“We know Kendrick has another gear – he shows us that with every project,” he said. “Drake has given us so much, I don’t know if he has another gear so therefore I’m not looking forward to anything. … Are we still in the Drake era? Is radio such a prehistoric form of media that it hasn’t changed the temperature to what’s actually going on out here in these streets? … I don’t think we’ve been in a Drake era for the past two-three years.”
Kevin Durant reacted to Charlamagne’s comments with laughing emojis on Instagram, clearly disagreeing with the notion his boy and “Laugh Now, Cry Later” co-star had fallen off.
Certified Lover Boy is expected in January 2021, according to Drake’s last update. In his announcement, he recreated the album covers for So Far Gone, Take Care, Nothing Was the Same and his most recent release, Dark Lane Demo Tapes.

The album will be Drake’s sixth studio effort and his first since being released from his Cash Money contract. Revisit the announcement below.
bit of a reach*
All the way to the fuckin Moon…smh
The Drake era is will be over as long as me and my brother are hanging around!
Charlamagne wants some more bottles from drizzy ?
WOW!
My lawd, Charlemagne has been saying stupid stuff about Drake for a while now, everyone knows it. He is one of those who wants Drizzy to fall of so bad, like why even hate on the mans success? Has he checked the Certifications, Streams and View counts for “Laugh now, Cry Later”?
Does that look like someone who’s falling of anytime soon?
Why can’t black men try to build themselves up, without unnecessarily trying to pull down another black man? Pathetic
Sales and views do not mean that he makes good music…He makes mainstream music for 15 years old girls that’s why his fake music works..One of the worts artist of the past two decades with Lil Wayne…
You cannot have stated this better brother! Thank You!
I can’t believe some people still listen to Drake in 2020…Fake rap, fake RNB…fake lusic…
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A DRAKE ERA AS THERE WILL ALWAYS BE NEW ARTISTS TO STEAL FROM AND DESPERATE COLLEGE GIRLS TO MAKE MUSIC FOR.
More like the end of the breakfast club era. Charlamagne been fell off from where he used to be. I think the whole negativity gossip thing has taken a hit tbh (Vlad, Akademiks, Charlamagne)
I don’t like Drake or his music and have zero of his tracks or ones he’s featured on in my playlist but I acknowledge his success… this dude Charlamagne does nothing but sit in his radio booth and trash anyone that’s more successful and got more money than him
Hasn’t he always hated Drake? I remember like 2013 Drake got upset at Charlamagne for implying that he was gay, called him a nerd, and Charlemagne responded by playing a clip of Drake saying “Wayne is just too good, omg he’s just too good”. Then when Charlemagne got jumped, someone (Jack thriller I think) asked if he thought Drake has sent them and he said it couldn’t have been Drake, because the guys who jumped him weren’t homosexuals. Not sure what year that was, at least 2014.
Drake has a good marketing team. The Radio pretty much spams his music all day.
You have to pay to be on the radio. His team pays Radio stations to play his shit all day.
He also pays all the music streaming sites to spam his music. Remember a couple years ago he paid Spotify to spam his new album for like a week straight.
Spotify Premium users were mad af they spammed Drakes album and started cancelling their memberships. Spotify apologized and gave everyone 2 free months and said they won’t spam Drake a music anymore lmaooo
Drake music is garbage but he has money to pay radio and streaming sites so spam his garbage all day
Real question. Who listens to the radio today? Like for real.
Hahah his concerts sell out in every city you broke black clown. This idiot thinks drake only gets popular from radio lmfao imagine that
