Aubrey Graham or locally known as Drake. This is a name that even the people who haven't even heard a small snippet of his song know him and how great he is. Actually, if you haven't a drake song you'd literally have to be off the grid for years which means you're probably not going to be reading this either........ because his music is everywhere. And deservedly so I might add.
He has managed to majorly influence the music industry by publishing a whole ton of music which has consistently been chart toppers at the very least. His versatility which he showcases with his vocals as well as different flows of rap on beats that always become an instant classic is what makes sure that he stands out from his peers. He also manages to rack up millions of streams and a loooooott of awards. He has also paved a path for the musicians and artists to gain sponsorships from companies like Nike and Jordan.
He also does get his fair share of the criticism. Some saying his music being very repetitive and generic. Also having music trying to viral by attempting to make them dance songs like 'Toosie slide' and 'In my feelings' to name a few. He's also had his personal life in the spotlight because of the beef with Pusha T.
But through all of that his numbers only seem to get better with time. Maybe he's found the Krabby Patty formula equivalent of the music game? It sure feels like it.
His recent single 'Greece' is one of my all time favorite by the six god. And I got played exactly how he wanted me to. He released this song a month back on his instagram story and getting everyone intrigued.
He also did something similar with 'Toosie Slide' by letting his fans make Tik-Tok dances for the song before he actually publishes it. It's not uncommon for Artists to "LEAK" their music so that they get more buzz for the song but Drake has made it blatently obvious and IT SURE DOES WORK!!!!
