Nothing lasts forever. Across dynasties and monarchies, there comes a time when one flame peeters out and another ignites to take its place.
Throughout history, this process has become time-honored and is felt in sports, entertainment and, perhaps most of all, hip-hop.
No matter what role you fill in the game, there’s always a natural process of succession. Start off as a dope boy turned MC, there’s a good chance that you’ll one day progress to grown man status. At that point, another young, hungry rapper with a chip on their shoulder and plenty of inventive metaphors about pushing coke will come and take that vacant spot.
And by that same token, even the superstars of the game will have to eventually pass the baton to others. At one point in time, everyone from Run DMC and Big Daddy Kane to MC Hammer and LL Cool J was considered to be the center of the commercial hip-hop stratosphere. But with time, they were dislodged and each party took their own respective place in history.
So, now that he’s stood, statuelike, at the mountaintop where pop meets rap for so long, the question that’s beginning to swirl around in hip-hop circles is as follows.
When Drake either hangs it up or is no longer hitting like he once was, who comes to claim his coveted spot?

What made drake a superstar was his rise during the rise of the digital age. We love to see someone start small and get bigger and bigger. On top of that his lyrics seemed personal and easily relatable in some type of way, but at the same time his bars were strong enough to stick with you months and years after each drop.
A lot contributed to his rise and success. 1) He was apart of a rap group (lil wayne, nicki, and young money crew) 2) He was the first rapper to get very emotional and be commercially successful doing it. 3) He had Toronto on his back. this includes the sound of that city which is now defined as 90s r&b samples and underwater sounds thanks to unique producers like 40 and Boi-1da 4) he was a crossover artist who was able to appeal to street just as much as the pop audience. 5) There's so much more but I'm tired of typing.
With all that being said, I like Jack Harlow but I don't think he will reach the stardom of Drake. There are too many pieces missing and his studio album wasn't that impressive to me. It was just cool. Drake started out conscious before he became pop which allowed him to build some die hard fans even after he went pop. This is similar to Kanye and his fanbase. I feel like Jack's fans haven't been cemented yet and those that are fans are mostly suburban kids. Drake had them and more.
He just made catchy songs and I liked him cause I watched degrassi
@@NostalgicHearts I dont think Jack is a superstar but he has potential he is gonna automatically have a big fan base but I dont thi k he has stans yet and those are what you need to really stick around cause they will support any and everything he drops. He is developing his sound but he isn't that good yet. I like a few song but I dont gravitate to his music
Idthink the next drake is discovered yet... I feel like in 2-3 years a new artist will appear that will take over
@@NostalgicHearts you big time buggin. I was a freshman in college when So far gone dropped, lliterally EVERY COLLEGE STUDENT had that on repeat.
One thing Drake had going was that his mom was white, Jewish, and from Canada. His dad was black and from the hood of Memphis Tennessee. And Drake himself was from a melting pot like Toronto. He wasn’t just relatable because of his music. He was relatable because he could relate to blacks whites and middle easterners seamlessly. In addition to being able to rap and sing.
All the rappers included in this video can relate to one demographic and shades of others but none can encapsulate as many as Drake could.
I see all these new rappers becoming “superstars” but not becoming ubiquitous household names and runaway successes like Drake
Wonderfully said.
I agree with everything you stated , but being Jewish isn’t considered (white ) or Caucasian, you can say middle eastern,‘but Jews aren’t white people because they are not from the Caucasus mountains or Europe
Perfectly said
Facts
@@LITTYWorldMusiKENT Jewish people are white, they’re not a different race
There are soo many variables to drakes success its hard to imagine anybody replacing him. From the him being half black and half Jewish, versatility in music he's touched most genres. Dude has a marketable look and story. I dont even see a "street" rapper being the biggest artist in music to that of a drake. But who knows. But I will say this Drake has done lyrical rap, trap rap, swag rap, rnb, dance hall, grime. Dude has rapped in Arabic and sang in Spanish. He's left quite big shoes to fill. But eventually somebody will arise
He’s also came in your mouth a bunch of times it seems….
@@miggypeso909 All he doing is stating the facts🤷🏾♂️.Going off your other comments you really dislike Drake don’t you?😂
@Miles Prower yeah cuz Tupac and LL Cool J never existed. Yeesh you Stans are something else. He wasn’t the first to do anything,Common and Em all did that too. Hell plenty of emcees did. U gotta be new.
. . . And It Will Be Need
@Miles Prower Another very true statement Drake did change alot im rap. Naturally as time goes on some new will come about but I haven't seen anybody capable doing that yet. Its definitely not lil baby.
There won't be another Drake. He's a 1 time deal like Wayne, Nas, Biggie etc... Don't think anyone will have the same gift for making non stop chart topping hits with the consistency and longevity that Drake has achieved.
the only thing that wont be replaced is his numbers wise, hes no where as talented as those
*kendrick
@@Wallblue21 I agree
@@wolfwang8464 Lol as talented as Kendrick is the chances of him becoming as popular as drake are slim as hell
@@Wallblue21 being able to make hits and stay relevant for over ten years musically is a talent
This is legit what I was thinking when Jack Harlow came out with his album last year. Dude has potential and the love from many.
Hell naw
Boooo 🍅
@@Historicutuber lmao no hate but i don’t see it simply there won’t be another one
You get the biggest L having that mindset
Yeah ain't no white dude gonna be on top in rap.
you slipped that cereal ad in crazy. i was like damn how they gone relate this to magic spoon to drake😂
His next album has to be CAREER DEFINING! but he has the potential. The likable Drake did back in the day is very apparent with him.We just gotta see
Gonna be mid
Drake will never ever make a classic because he 🗑 don’t forget it. How I have a hip hop channel but fuck with drake? DRAKE?
@@wolfwang8464 what you sound like a hater Ohdee
He missed that chance with the CLB drop. At this point his run isn't over but he's gonna have to pull a huge comeback if he's putting out another album.
I think he got it anymore. TC and NTWS Drake is gone
Depends on what aspect of drake youre talking about. Commercially, Travis couldve maybe had it but astrofest may or may not take away from that. in terms of ability to generate hits for a decade and run the decade... i dont think we have discovered that artist yet. In terms of versatility of genre, tory lanez is pretty comparable. But to put all three togther, we probably gonna have to wait a good amount of time.
Travis is already big asf wdym
Travis was already big, and once he’s able to drop his next album later this year or the fall he will be big again
Travis could never be drake his sound is mainstream but still underground, like I could never play a song of his that my mom or grand mom could even remotely enjoy
Tory can for sure 🔥🔥
@@EZPZGOD tory is elite but hes never at the top commercially nor does he consistently put out hits. he always hovers around 3rd to 5th place. he def one of my faves tho
Jack Harlow might turned out to be loved like mac miller.
Likeable, talented, stays in his own lane.
And funny.
I genuinely want to see him succeed.
Also, RIP Mac.
I could see jack being the next big big rapper.
@@YardratZ agreed
Nah. His music is trash. If he switches up his style like Mac did on his last two albums then we will see.
I love Jack but him being top rapper in the game will mean that rap is no longer for the culture and white people have basically taken over rap and nobody wants that💯💯
You would've never mentioned Mac Miller if Jack Harlow wasn't white. Shit is real lazy.
I hope Drizzy is going for a more mature album next time. He's got everything he needs to put out fire shit, meaningful stuff, things to give you goosebumps. CLB was just for the casuals. Now we need something for the enthusiasts.
Man's want something philosophical 😭🤣
Yeah but its hard trying to go from a tik tok album to serious album.
Totally agree with this. CLB was so goofy and didn’t even fit the aesthetic that Drake built up around it pre-roll out. He completely abandoned great singles he dropped before the album in 2021, songs like Laugh Now Cry Later, What’s Next, Wants and Needs, Lemon Pepper Freestyle. And in return we got “Way 2 Sexy”??? It makes no sense and on top of that the goofy album cover killed half the hype before the album even came out. Even the lyrics on the album were so weird. “Say that you a lesbian girl, me too”. It’s obvious Drake is heavily catering to the TikTok audience. It makes no sense, he’s so much more bigger than that. He doesn’t need TikTok to blow up. HE’S DRAKE.
Bro there’s so many songs on the album that was serious stop going off of them 4 tik tok songs casual drake fan🤦🏽♂️
We've been saying this since Views
There will never be another Drake
I'm getting more and more confident in Jack Harlow's music career, but I always feel like something is missing in his music, I really can't put my finger on it tho. Nail Tech was good, but I don't see myself playing it months if not weeks from now. I don't know why
There's nothing defining about his personality. He doesn't have much substance in his music at all outside of wanting to be a good rapper, which is going to get old to most very fast
i think it's because he's more commercial now! & you gotta water down everything to a 1st grade level for the masses. his mixtapes before he popped off are fucking FIRE! also black women love him & his target audience is black people so yea lol
Never saw the appeal of jack tbh
He’s trash, Benny the butcher and Denzel Curry are way better
Apparently he’s a big nerd but his team does good job of hiding it🤷🏾🤷🏾 go watch his stuff from 2018 he’s basically looks like a computer nerd who can rap
Kendrick can never be as commercial as Drake
The way he looked at Drake when they were on the boat, that doesnʼt surprise me if heʼll be the next Drake lmao.
That made no sense dweeb.
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game means rap is no longer for the culture💯 Tik Tok kids (White kids) will decide what’s cool now😵💫
Industry Plant Type Beat
There will never be another Drake. I believe nobody is ever going to father the attention, snatch the attention, and blow it up the way Drake. The way he came up, the way he blew & the wat he created that new lane ( rapper/singer) will never be repeated.
I don’t care what anyone says I don’t want this Jack Harlow guy being at the throne of hip hop. Dude is a white guy from Kentucky. He might even be an industry plant looking to make a major cash grab in hip hop. He keeps referencing Drake as if he’s anywhere near Drake’s skill set. What made Drake so hot was his gift to write personal lyrics that were easily relatable, catchy hooks that stuck with you for years, and emotional ballads on tracks. Jack is nothing like Drake and the fact that he’s hanging out with Drake all of a sudden makes me think that Jack is some sort of industry plant and Drake probably got some sort of backroom deal for hanging out with him. The industry is very sneaky, you gotta watch people like Jack very closely.
no
Drake will never fall off. Even if he might seem to fade away he could always come out with a banger album.
Not sure albums as a whole haven’t been hitting like his older discography but def he got them radio hit singles tho
Basically, Drake will become something of an Eminem?
It’s gonna be tough to label someone as the next superstar in hiphop post drake, Kendrick,
Cole, Nicki, future
Yup super stars and getting more rare.
The thing is nowadays it's easy to get famous but hard to stay that way it used to be the other way around the thing about Drake is he can drop a song once every 6 months and be relevant all these other rappers today have to drop multiple songs every week or every couple of weeks just to stay relevant
Baby is coming there
There won’t be another drake no one can rap and sing like him. He has so many different sounds that appeal to different people all across the world.
Fax
We don't want a next drake...we want it to go back where multiple artists can be popular at the same time.
It is like that right now too. Its that some of these other artist are not on drake level mentally.
Bro it’s always been like that LMFAOOOOO fym
I mean we got Drake, Ye, Kendrick and Cole all pippin idk what you mean lol
On point and very insightful as always. Great work.
I was waiting for somebody to make a video on this.
I think the problem is that Drake made a hole for himself as a pop/rap star that no one can achieve. Unlike Kanye, (yeah I'm going there) he gave more attention to acts like Lupe, Cudi, Travis Scott, etc. that have similar ideas like him that he can pass the torch too, the same way JayZ passed on his role as hip-hop king to Kanye, while Drake has no real comparable act like him.
Personally I feel rap has become so mainstream and will continue to do so that some other genre of music might become the new cool underground sound like rap in the 80s or shit maybe rock will become cool again🧐🧐
@@TheJcg14 EDM is the future of music. I’m talking actual EDM not the mainstream shit you see, one of my boys is kind of getting me into it but trust me 15-20 years from now that’s the future of music
There won't be another Drake. The reason (& there's many) why Drake became so big is because of impact, reach & storyline. For another artist to do this they would have to shake up the landscape of music while reaching a large variety of different consumers from various walks of life.
Drake has all around music that kids, adults, & even elderly can enjoy. Most artist simply have 1 or 2 sounds they are exceptionally good at while Drake is talented in like 5 or 6 different arenas.
In summation, we will get another impactful artist sooner than later but it is going to be someone we least expect & from someplace where we don't usually hear music artist coming from. That individual will also encompass a sound unique to them & others will want (or even need for relevance) to have it. In this copycat/microwave era, there needs to be someone who dares to be different, who is relatable, & unafraid to be themselves, while making music good enough for a multitude of people to enjoy. Pretty much who Drake was when he first got lit.
Been waiting for somebody to cover this. The throne been open for like 3 years now and I ain't see nobody reach for it.
GREAT VIDEO FAM
Tbh Drake’s come up was amazing because of the type of music he was doing. The raw emotion and how he spoke was so amazing. He said things in such a beautiful, relatable way, that I couldn’t understand how he was getting hated on. Listen to Paris Morton Music and then listen to Fancy but not the first half of the song, listen to the second half of it. The outro. Man! He just brings these memories back idk how he does it. Drake encapsulates all cultures. Idk who else can do this.
Couldn’t agree more. Something about songs like Paris Morton Music and Cameras/Good Ones Go Interlude will always be in a playlist on my phone
Not trying to be funny, but none of these guys qualify to be the next drake their skill level and catalogue has yet to prove this
What made Drake as big as he has to deal with him crossing genres and overall his ability to make music that a lot of people can enjoy overall. You can literally see it his catalog. Where he started to lack inspiration and ambition in his music so where he gained even more popularity. If made a purely 100% rap album it may have critical acclaim but it wouldn’t do numbers compared something like views because he would only be catering to one of his audiences and not all. So to ask someone who would be the next Drake ultimately means would be the next popstar. The real question is “Who will be the next biggest rapper without having to crossover other genres?”
If your reading this it’s too late is almost completely rap and it was very successful.
I'd say that Drake isn't strictly pop-rap, but that phase began strictly in 2016. His persona/other marketing strategies are extremely strong IMO, copying the blueprint from LL Cool J, refined by Tupac/Biggie and then some more by Eminem, Jay-Z and Kanye
@@ICreateShit I was referring to everything after that project. That’s why I said if he made a strictly rap album it wouldn’t do numbers compared to views Because that’s when his music more diverse than ever before and he also did the most numbers as far as album sales
@@marcquees5312 Copy I get you
The biggest issue with CLB, is that it didn’t feel personal, Drake always worked with other artists, but when it comes to his albums it was usually all him aside from some R&B artists and maybe one or two Rappers, But CLB felt like a mixtape with a bunch of features we’ve already expected him to do music with. There was nothing different about this album. It was just meh. Which is unusual for a Drake album
Donda was significantly better but I’m glad they squashed their beef
The title of the video let’s me now know the industry will make sure it happens
The industry can boost you but it will never build your Fanbase
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game would mean rap is no longer for the culture💯 Tik Tok kids will decide what’s cool now😵💫
Years ago I heard Dark knight and I was hooked. I was telling all my boys this white boy gonna blow up. Salute to Jack
no hes a industry plant that they're tryna force on us
@@Jersey1287 I respect how you feel
I’m from Louisville and I have known who he is since 2016. He was trash then and he’s trash now. Young people like him because he’s the popular thing to listen too. The way G Eazy was five years ago. Denzel Curry and Benny the Butcher should be the ones blowing up.
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game would mean rap is no longer for the culture💯 Tik Tok kids would decide what’s cool now😵💫
Ain’t nobody checking for a Jack Harlow
i think baby keem should be included in this discussion too. The Melodic Blue was a huge success for him, he can produce very well, he is now working alongside Kendrick with pgLang. He has a bright future ahead of him.
Naw he’s not even top in his era Don Toliver is better than him
@@MrEOM41 Baby Keem > Jack Harlow
There will NEVER be another Drake. The same way there will never be another Plies. Different generations breed different artists. It's as simple as that.
I hope Harlow goes far & his career prospers.
Ngl, I genuinely hope he fall off. He do nothing different than a lot of black rappers with that exact style, but because he’s white, his career uprise a tenfold, which is absolute BS (bird shit, not bull). He’s a white early Big Sean but nowhere near as talented.
@@discretegeek57 Word, I personally think there will eventually be a rift in hip-hop between the suburban/white hip-hop fans that drive revenue and the grass roots og fan bases where it started.
Rappers like Jack Harlow who are marketable to white people will do well and make money but they will never be accepted in the OG circles.
Then there will also be low-key stars that gain heavy respect in the Og circles but don’t draw the same audiences & revenues.
Somebody like Bobby shmurda vs somebody like jack harlow
@@discretegeek57 even though your reasonings may not be wrong, it’s fucked up to wish for somebody’s downfall.
@@second2none914 Bobby Shmurda only has 10 songs out…
And 6 of them came out almost a decade ago
@@discretegeek57 exactly he’s insanely overhyped. He’s not bad but nowhere near as good as people make him out to be, in terms of pure rap skill or as an artist in general. He’s mostly popular because he’s a sly talking kind of good looking white boy
Love your videos excellent work 👏
Aye this title wild fam 😂😂😂
The industry’s working harder than ever.
They doing they best to erase black people from Hip Hop,while turning hip hop into straight pop music with no identity or rules to define it. What a trash era. Wow. Drake. There’s dudes trying to be the next Drake. Lol.
@@miggypeso909 you can't actually believe that smh. I'm not a Jack Harlow fan by any means.There's barely Is any energy when he wraps plus the bars are generic. But give me a break on that erasing black people bullshit
As someone who’s been listening to him since 2018, it’s absolutely wild to me to see Jack being compared to Drake
I know right. Because Harlow is trash. If he does a song as big as Hotline Bling or Forever or Started from the bottom or a album as good as Take Care then we can talk.
Something important that any new artist will need is a team that supports you more then they support themselves in a way. You’re only as strong as your weakest link.
Worst feedback of his entire career ? I feel like every single drake album gets hated on at first but then in a couple years ages like fine wine.
True
Lol true I was believing some comments from haters that CLB was mid but it's even getting better with time. It's such a good album but many will always hate at you when you're at the top
Exactly I feel Drake is underrated because even though he is the biggest rapper in the world he gets so much hate and Don t get credit and its like people are afraid to say they like his music because people think its cool to hate him but its so old and tired it feels redundant to hate him
@@EazyRocko I agree
Here 1st love the content
Super Bowl halftime deff showed me who were the real superstars and who really transitioned to the mainstream side. We had a Super Bowl party at the house and all our parents knew everyone on stage except for Kendrick lol I think it doesn’t help either that back in the day we still had Mtv and BET playing music video shows. Now and days if you’re not on the internet or social media looking for the artist, you’re missing out. Back in the day white grandmas knew who Nelly and 50 cent were. I doubt they know who the migos or lil baby is today.
Thanks for showing your face this time lol. Thought there was only one host and the audio was just off sometimes (new to the channel)
Lol I thought the beginning of the magic spoon ad was going to be a metaphor about music
😂😂
It honestly could’ve been Pop Smoke, the way he took off in such a short amount of time at such a young age, his knack for writing hits, the pop appeal in his public persona, all the co-signs he had in the industry, and then on top of all that he would’ve really took off with the Latin audience due to his Panamanian heritage’s influence on his music. It would’ve been crazy.
nah...
I heard no evidence of him putting out a classic tape, but he was extremely young tho.
@@bwc-chvd I’m saying he was charismatic and marketable bruh lmaoo
@@OMGitsEmeboz Part of my point is he didn’t get a chance to really do that. The Meet the Woo tapes are most definitely classics in a NY Drill sense though, put that scene on the map globally.
@@ashantinyongo7632 he was obviously 50’s son
I can't see anyone being like Drake and I don't even think he's that close to exiting being on top.. people have been saying that for years, hoping they can be like "I said it first."
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER DRAKE!
Y’all hit this one on the money
It won’t do numbers but Benny the butchers album and conways new album are the best hip hop albums to drop this year.
Yea but that ant the convo were having here
Thats a bad opinion. Because those albums are trash. Especially Conway.

Jack Harlow has his own sound ,if you listing to his 3 last albums you can see in which direction his jounery will grow 🔥🙌🏻 he is not my number 1 but in my Top 10 for sure. The one is Cole.If we see from Jack Harlow 5 or 6 good albums with 4 classic than we can talk about the status of a Drake
Nah he’s trash
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game means rap is no longer for the culture💯 Tik Tok kids (White kids) will decide what’s cool now😵💫
Cole been straight dookie after K.O.D
You don't need 4 classics to be on Drake's level. Plus, its rare for rappers to reach that level w/ 4 classics, especially since Drake only has fringe classics.
@@OMGitsEmeboz i think minimum 4 or 3 mor than 2 def. good albums should be there with an impact. His time has come now to put calssic's like Take care , nothing was the same ,If you.... , so Jack Harlow already smash's the billboard. Not to compare like Drake but he goes in a good direction.I stay tuned
I see the potential, he’s got the charisma and grind for it, all he needs is some big singles.
and a fringe classic/classic tape.
For real 🔥❤
Nah the industry move too quick now. Most rappers blowing up rn stay hot for about 2-3 years and then they flame out or get replaced with whatever is hot att. Dont forget G-Eazy was hot for a minute to just to compare him to another white rapper. (GEazy flow better than his imo)
Macklemore was the biggest thing. I remember being a teenager and every female loved him from 2011 to 2015. Then it was G Eazy until 2018. Now it’s Harlow.
Agree with Wayne. Nowadays we have a lot of one hit wonders and everyone sounding the same in every song, clear example is young boy he sounds the same every song
U clearly don’t listen to youngboy😂😂😂 cuz that’s the least accurate complaint against him

RUclipsr thinks of a great smooth way to transition to an ad read:

Dawg why is KENDRICK in the background 😭
There didn’t gonna be another Drake but Jack may be able to become as big. Jack has a huge female fan base & women feel like he speaks to them. Lil Baby possibly could become the next Drake if he changes the female public perspective of him. I feel like a lot of women don’t like him just based off of the way he treats women & Jada
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game means rap is no longer for the culture💯
Lil Baby doesn’t have Drake’s artistry. Dope rapper but I don’t see him having an equally strong international presence as Drake’s. There will be no next Drake. Because of how accessible music is, it’ll be hard to have an undisputed superstar
There were shifts in the marketplace before and superstars still show up. A new one will come soon.
Big up Drizzy
It’s gon be me gotta set this straight
I would love to see one on who will be the next nicki minaj , I think this one was really informative
Nobody will be the next Minaj, she's a 1 of 1
Drake is simply too diverse, too versatile. He cannot be compared to any contemporaries because there's almost no comparisons to be made
Facts
Wait what??
@@baselinegrey2x723 not sure what you're asking
At this point the bars gotta be there it's 2022 my g
To be the next drake you need to be the next wave.
I don't think Wayne meant there will never be anyone take Drakes place, he meant their will never be another Drake. The second half of what he said was "today you have to be more than just somebody" and i think he was trying to say that today you have to have more than just the music, today is all about social media.
Yep..
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game basically means rap is no longer for the culture 💯💯 Tik Tok kids will decide what’s cool now😵💫
Rap is no longer for culture. 2016 and beyond rap belongs to white folks
@DEHH should discuss this!
I think was 1 of 1 just due to him being one of the last generations that had to try. Now a days you just blow on tiktok or make a trendy dance and can blow up. Artists are chewed up and spit up faster than we can even count now a days and the average career lasts 5 years or less. I don’t think there will be another Drake just small rappers that blow up from time to time and than die off after a couple of years tbh
No
The only thing is you have to actually be talented. And we can say what we want about drake but he’s not a gimmick... his music speaks for itself.
I've been a huge Drake fan since 2009 and believe this conversation is definitely not premature.
I think Jack Harlow has a great chance to take Drake's spot if he wanted it after Drake's done
Until he puts out a fringe classic/classic tape, he is not even close.
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game would mean rap is no longer for the culture✊🏿💯 Tik Tok kids would decide what’s cool now😵💫
Tell me you're white without telling me you're white
Need a classic album and 2011/2012 like run that Drake was giving hits like cookies I like Harlow tho
😂😂😂
There will never be another Drake, just like there will never be another Michael Jackson. Some things can just never be replicated. You are talking about a man that has dominated hip hop for 10+ years with hit after hit after hit.
Decent argument. I do think he has the most potential in terms of universal appeal along with Lil Baby. Jack seems less inhibited to fit into an archetype which may serve him well. Rappers like Durk, Baby, YB have to stay true to their street roots first and foremost which may be to the detriment of their growth.
You understand you can remain street and still sell a bunch of music right?
@@miggypeso909 they can and will but won't have as much impact. The versatility isn't there
Lil Baby has no chance; no fringe classic/or classic tape yet, has 0 cross-over appeal due to the majority of the content in his catalogue, his poor enunciation of words doesn't translate across the Atlantic, autotune will be a barrier to entry for his music etc. Should I go on?
YB is simply better
@@agarrandoviaje5425 who is yb? Is that short for nba young boy?
Kendrick has been around too long to be "the next drake", and he's in his own lane anyway.
I don’t even care about the next best rapper, I care about how good the project will be. Benny the Butcher and Denzel Curry are proving the content matters more than having screaming fans
Benny is trash 🤷🏾♀️
Being the greatest is something I can achieve! drake is in a league of his own, there will never be another... but time does this weird thing That makes people get older....so I guess we will see with time.
Hip-hop is in it's mainstream stage like Rock was in the 60s-80s. Rock died in the mid-90s. You won't see any rock albums in the top 10 decade-end best album lists for the 2010s. Hip-hop will die next decade so I'd say there is time for a new artist to copy the Blueprint before a new genre has exponential growth.
The fact that you have Kendrick on the thumbnail is disrespectful…
Baby keem. Baby keem. Baby keem. Hes related to a current icon in kendrick, heavily inspired by both modern greats (cudi, kanye, travis) but also a peer to the more modern contemporary artists. He has a unique mesh of styles, singing and rapping ability. Hes 100% next up
Too alternative atm. Even w/ cosigns/dropping an album, he can't push 300k units. Thank Me Later dropped when Drake was 23/24 and sold 441k first week.
Baby keem ain't really there artistically. His family connections will carry his career. He needs to improve lyrically.
People don’t understand
To get that HALL OF FAME BADGE you gotta put in 10 years of greatness
Notice I said “Greatness”
I think with how jack and drake recently hung out publicly I took it as a passing the torch moment from drizzy to jack
Drake hangs out with whoever is hot. He was talking about Baby Keem in 2019. Kodak in 2014. He never wants to be irrelevant. He will hang out with another young hot rapper in 2025.
@@malcolmxpanther good point
There isn't going to be another Drake, but there will definitely be great artists.
21 Savage was spitting facts in that clip
Hip-hop is a global genre though. Drake may not be getting looks in the hood, but I'd say 90+% of Drake's fanbase is white. Also, Drake's music can translate across the Atlantic.
You guys should make a video on the best hiphop cities of the last decade.
been rocking with homie since he was rocking them perscriptions yuu heard?
jack ended up fumbling
Nobody. There I saved y’all 10 min lol
3:46 when he started this promo, I thought he was making an allusion to how our music tastes change as we grow 😅
well produced and well written video. respect jack since his confetti tape and he’s earned his success. great counter balance of viewpoints too , brining up why some question his talent. i predict it will help him evolve. he’s still so young
Jack Harlow is one of those people that just seem too good to be true. Kid is funny, confident, versatile, intelligent, down to earth, talented, driven and so much more. He’s one of the main reasons I started rapping and producing. His music just made it seem so fun to create through an artistic outlet. I’m excited to see where his career goes - right now it seems as if he can do no wrong! Happy for Jack, he seems like a genuinely good soul. Hard to find anyone with a negative opinion about him. All love - and he deserves it!
Well said - I just checked some of your shit out, honestly bro - you have potential !
tell me you are white without telling me u are white
@@Jersey1287 I'm not white and I agree with everything he said tell me you're racist without telling me you're racist
Harlow is trash. The only people in the comments saying they like Harlow are under 20. His music is not too good to be true. It’s trash
Jack Harlow is great but him being top rapper in the game would mean rap is no longer for the culture💯 Tik Tok kids would decide what’s cool now😵💫
No such thing as another Drake. Everybody is in their own lane and can inspire to be their next best self.
Come dawg Harlow?
Thanks for the shout out. Dope vid. Could be Tory Lanez depending on how the trial ends up.🍷
This is facts. But we gotta see
Womp womp 😬
That white boy will never
Drake mixture of marketing and being biracial also tapping in to rnb pop and rap separates him from a lot of other artist so for someone to be drake they got to be able to be consistent and hit making
Travis really one of the only ones who does numbers at least close to Drake when he drops. Not sure now though
He had a great feature run in 2021, with Baby Keem, Kanye, Drake, Don Toliver, and LIL Durk and Lil Baby, and he would’ve dropped his album last year, now we may have to wait until 2023.
1 is already enough, we don’t need another!
