If you’re ever having a bad day and you need a little pick-me-up, please refer to this article because referring to Drake as “Rap Game Frank Sinatra” is utterly priceless.
But seriously—I think this is an excellent piece.
It’s true: Drake is not necessarily making only rap music. He’s performing songs that are “in-between styles and expectations,” which is why, I think, it’s difficult to identify him with one specific genre of music. He’s essentially blurred the lines, and that’s why, like Sinatra, he will stand the test of time.
