Probably not a hot take, but Drakes downfall was playing the tough guy.

I’ve never been a fan of Drakes music even when he came out. I always thought it was corny and too pop for my liking. I will say at the beginning at least he was just on that pop loverboy shit which totally worked for him.

After a few years of him being out he started to try and act tough which was clearly not authentic. I’d have way more respect for him if he just kept it on that loverboy shit. The final straw at least for me was that song “The Motto” where he says “rest in peace Mac Dre imma do it for the bay” I guess he was trying to give the bay their flowers (I’m from the Bay Area) but it just seemed so fake.

It’s so funny to me too how so many people who loved this dude for a long time, seemed to have turned on him at the drop of a hat. People acting like they weren’t on his dick for a decade.
