HE STILL HAS BUZZ BUT I AGREE,IT HAS GONE DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY.I THINK THE VIDEO FOR HIS SONG KILLED A GOOD PORTION OF IT BECAUSE THE VIDEO SHOWCASED A LACK OF CREATIVITY AND LACK OF NEW IDEAS.ALSO,THE MAJORITY OF HIS FANS ARE FEMALE,AND THEIR RESPONSE TO THE VIDEO WAS “BOUNCING TITS,WHATEEVUURRR”.
THERE’S ALSO THE ISSUE OF BUDGET,THAT IS;THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THEY WERE USING TO FUEL THE HYPE IS ALMOST FINISHED.WHEN YOU’RE PAYING RADIO,TV,PROMOTERS ETC,WHEN YOU’RE PAYING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO THESE GUYS FOR EXPOSURE FOR A NEW ARTIST-WHEN YOU’RE DOING ALL OF THIS IN A VERY SHORT TIMESPAN,YOU’RE BOUND TO GO DRY IN A MATTER OF WEEKS.
as a female which i think is the core of the drake fan base… i don’t even give a damn if this album drop. i was so excited but co-sign #1… that is one album i will not be BUYING. and it better be damn good!!
This is the first time I ever heard this guy speak, And I get a gay vibe but worst than that I get a disingenuous feel from this guy. I’m usually right about these things.
You know, my first time hearing that Successful song was on the radio out here in New York and I love it. Didn’t know it was Drake’s song and off his mixtape

If you are not buying, you should have no interest or concern in whether it is good or not, don’t you think?
Agree with #1, it seems like he’s starting to loss the hype he had going for him. Damn I don’t know what it iz about dude, but he just rubs me the wrong way -somethin about this guy idk..??
Dis nigga has been APOLOGIZING for everything:
1. Knee
2. B.E.T(DAT WACK ASS PERFORMANCE)
3. Knee 2nd time (WHEN DAT NIGGA FELL AGAIN…)
4. Motown….?????????
5. And maybe in the FUTURE…3rd Knee…
I was never really into Drake…im waitin for J.COLE (if Jay-z selfish ass… promote him) and Nipsey Hu$$le…PLUS BOTH OF THEIR MIXTAPES ARE BETTER THAN “SO FAR LOST”…OH I MEAN…”SO FAR GONE” MIXTAPE…..and Dats REALTALK
did nelly just switch up his flow in that video???
This wont b the last drake post today *yawn* seen as hes told mtv hes releasin so far gone for retail…
Now iv heard that mixtape and honestly apart from that november 18th, sooner than later and best i ever had (before the over kill) that mixtape is SNOOZE worthy…
What happened to the people who were praising him saying he writes for wayne. Now he’s not going to be around next year?
Trust. Once he drops, he’ll still sale 250,000 first week, at least. I was at the AMW Concert last night, and all the girls were going were still going crazy for “Best I Ever Had”. The video didn’t hurt him THAT much.
I have to admit that he rubs off on me the wrong way a little bit too, but I still wish him success. He’s probably a nice guy once you meet him.
I’ve been in the same circles as Drake for years in my city, dude is genuine.
The apology for everything prior to this Motown shit is real.
He dont like Sylvia Rhone. She threatened to sue dude.
Sylvia is the President of Motown, but ALSO the Vice Prez of Universal, therefore, he still HAS to fuck with her, thats where he’s signed. .
He realized saying “i dont fuck with Motown” wasnt a good move, cause you still HAVE to fuck with Sylvia.
It’s really that simple.

O My Where Has This Guy’s Buzz Gone?
August 14th, 2009 at 7:32 am
Is it me or does it sound like this apology is somewhat forced? Like someone with a VP spot told him to nip his talking in the bud?
August 14th, 2009 at 8:18 am
THIS GUY HAS BEEN APOLOGIZING A LOT;
-APOLOGIZING FOR HIS KNEE
-APOLOGIZING FOR THE BET PERFORMANCE
-APOLOGIZING FOR HIS KNEE AGAIN
-APOLOGIZING FOR HIS VIDEO
-APOLOGIZING TO MOTOWN
I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR HIS ALBUM,BUT HE NEEDS TO KILL THE SWEETHEART TACTICS BEFORE THE PUBLIC KILLS IT.
BEING MR.NICE GUY WON’T CUT IT IN TODAYS URBAN MARKET.

j.cole is the future and Drake is not Drake is a corny raper allways singing and not raping.
August 14th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Drake never apologized for his knee. He apologized for his BET performance, motown, and his video.
You know hip hop is full of hatin ass fans when somebody can humble them self enough to apologize and still get hated on.
August 14th, 2009 at 12:41 pm
Drake umm… who cares, the nelly video ok, i never understood what happened to this song because bg was on it 2

@ Yep
You wanna know why you just took an “L”
1.) You actually called me Daddy instead of responding to me by the number I was on this post
2.) I said nothing about a rubber.
Definition of “rub” (in the context that I’m using it in): To annoy; irritate
August 15th, 2009 at 3:41 am
@ WilddGame
Why was she going to sue drake?
