AI Creates Hit Drake Song, Amazon to Dominate With New Platform
"A couple of AI stories. An AI hit of fake Drake, and the weekend rattles the music industry. It became a short lived novelty, but it was pitch perfect. I just fed in the Drake stuff and said, write me a song, got a new Drake song. Meanwhile, Google deployed a generative artificial intelligence to create sophisticated ad campaign. Meanwhile, Amazon, I own Amazon, and it's the only stock I own Palantir for fun, a few shares, and a lot of shares of Amazon, but most of them in mutual funds because I don't pick stocks and I got gold in real estate. That's our wealth after all these decades. But I like Amazon. 2% yesterday. What happened? Well, they announced an AI platform. Bedrock. And of course, they're going to crush everybody else, but but the fact that AI can generate a Drake song and fool everyone would somebody ask their chat GPT. When will China begin its war against Taiwan? I would just like them to know, just ask them to analyze. When it helped me out here, computer. And don't give me a 2001 space Odyssey answer.

New Details Emerge About Nashville Shooter's Manifesto
"Let me play with the Nashville police chief John Drake said about this incident road clip too. Two manifesto, there's several different writings about other locations. There were locations that was talks about the school that was a map of the school drawing of how potentially she would enter and the salts that would take place. It's quite a bit of writing to it. I have not read the whole entire manifesto. Our team and the FBI has been working on this. So one part of that clip that he did mention, but in a full clip, he had made mention that there was a strategic aspect to which location would be, I guess, would be drawn into the final shooting, and that was because of the security or the lack thereof. And I made mention to this yesterday, you know, there's a way for us to fix these things, or at least to mitigate them. And that is to make sure that the doors are locked, and I think that I have to give credit to the school that the protocol was exceptional. I think the teacher shut the classrooms down, it may be some kids that were caught in the hallway in a few teachers called in the hallway that ended up getting shot and killed, but overall they locked the school down when the police officers arrived on scene. They were given instructions. They were telling them how to go through the hallway, which direction to go. I mean, they had an ample amount of support. I think that in their approach, the ones who were outside, there wasn't a lot of shooting. It appears there were a lot of shooting going on because only 6 people perished. And when I say only I'm not diminishing the fact that it was 6 people, three adults and three kids, it was that there could have been a tremendous amount more carnage. If this person had intent, I wasn't a complete coward and literally Mosin around with a gun like they've never held a gun before. Thank God that's what the person was. But I mean, look at them. I'm looking at the video, the person right now. I would have paid money to have a one on one with that person in the hallway.

Police: Nashville shooter fired indiscriminately at victims
"Police are releasing more information about the shooter in Nashville who killed three children and three adults at a local school. Audrey Hale had bought 7 weapons over the years. They were legally purchased three of those weapons were used. Police chief John Drake says hail hid the weapons from their parents. She was under care, doctors care for an emotional disorder. Law enforcement knew nothing about the treatment she was receiving, but her parents felt that she should not own weapons. Drake says they're still looking for a motive, but the shooter had a detailed map of the school. There was not any particular student that they were that she was looking for at the time of the incident. Drake's hail may have had some resentment for having to go to that school. I'm Ed Donahue

More Details on the Nashville School Shooting
"I have prayed for the children, and for their siblings, and for their parents, and for their grandparents. And for every member of the school I paid prayed for the staff and prayed for the killer and her family. The killer is obviously unbalanced, as they all are. Now, many people want to talk about gun control today. To which I always respond the same way after a mass shooting. And then we have a couple of these stories every year. A couple of these dreadful mornings every year. I always say the same thing. What would you do? What governor Glenn youngkin is doing is pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into mental health treatment. And open resources for people who are suffering. And no, and if self diagnosed or their parents or family or friends know that they'd fallen into the darkness and they, the answer here is not a ban on AR-15. I mean, that shed pistols as well as AR-15. That's not it. The answer is, what do we do? To stop our young people from careening. And it's not a large percentage of people who are trapped in psychotic killing madness. It's significant enough, but I'll play for you the police captain yesterday. Please chief John Drake, identifying the shooter, he will use her name. I will not cut number 6. Thank you, mayor Cooper, again, thank you all for being here. Just an update from today's press conference. We've identified the shooter as Audrey Hale, 28 year old female that lived in the natural area. We have investigations ongoing now at the residence on brightwood avenue. And we have made contact with the father that lived at that residence and our putting together more information information.

The Business of Esports
"drake" Discussed on The Business of Esports
"Is there a sort of a cycle there where you see, hey, a lot of these brands are coming in. They're interested in more short form. They want to experiment with TikTok. So maybe the eSports broadcaster that does a two hour a week podcast isn't the guy or the right guy for that campaign and we need to sign talent that's more TikTok creators or the brands are coming in for. Does that drive any of the talent decisions or the talent signing decisions totally independent? Yeah, I can talk on the creator side and then Drake maybe you talk on the actual, you know, what goes into choosing on air talent. But for the creator side, certainly again, the number one request we get when we talk to talent or perspective talent is getting me more brand deals, right? So for us, it's about finding talent that are going to be valuable to brands. And of course, there's numbers attached to it, but there's also intangibles like females are really popular right now for brand partnerships. Are they brand safe? Do they play the right games? What's their growth potential? So we're at a point right now where we can be really picky about who we saw. So all these factors kind of go into how we scout, talk to and ultimately sign talent. That's on the creator side. I think it's very brand focused and very growth focused. Again, can this creator turn into someone that we can sign to an eSports organization or really see become a superstar within the industry? Drake, I think podcasting is a great example and stuff we're doing right now on the broadcast side. Maybe you can touch on what goes into choosing broadcast talent. Yeah, I mean, I think this short answer is we're looking for people who've got that hustle factor who have that it factor. You know, we're looking for people who are either stars now or if a couple things break their way, they could be stars. You know, when I'm reviewing things like broadcaster reels, I've seen enough of them at this point that I can generally tell in 20 seconds of their reel if they've got both the factor and the star quality. One, it's not rocket science, but two I've done it enough. And as far as the hustle mentality goes, I think that speaks to more of the podcast, comment of we ideally don't want just a talent who is, you know, I'm only a valiant talent in this region and I'm always going to be at the whims of what riot wants to do.

"That. It's zaso son de sturdy. Lock up. We get back no one crazy enough to be good. Be my slash. I'm in as I know we're not coming through my dream come from sex. Say other things I give me they throw they try me tell me that ass. Blood cup we get back throwing crazy enough of the goats. They my slack is give us the quick hit on Philly dance club teen stuff. Philly geographically is kind of like a middle ground between Baltimore Jersey. Club music is always from and I didn't even notice initially. And it's funny because I didn't really know what Jersey or fairly club were until I became like a music writer. And I actually had to like interact with people and do more research, but growing up, I think because club music originated in Baltimore, I think we had such an insulated universe of our own renditions of it and we had multiple generations of it that we didn't really look elsewhere for it. So it wasn't until I started hanging out in New York and started meeting people from freely and they'd be like, oh yeah, we know about all the Baltimore club music we would play at a house party and they'd start naming songs to me. I'm like, oh, I had no idea. And even like with the whole mad decent involvement in club music, I wasn't aware of where any of those people were from. And I get older and I started to realize like, okay, all these guys were from Philly. And somebody even pointed out on Twitter with my vulture piece that I didn't mention DJ Sega from Philly, which my bad on that. I mean, it honestly can't mention. Yeah, it's a roundup. So somebody's gonna get left out, but yeah, you got DJ, the DJ Sega, as well as Diplo's and all those guys feeling has always had a place in club music there. It's really cool music, which is a bit faster than Baltimore, but not as fast as Jersey. So I think the design sources and the Philly goes to the world, it makes sense that this can happen in Philly. And I also want to point out that the producer for this for that track. DJ crazy is born and raised in Baltimore. He moved to Philly when he was a teenager. And from what I understand spent a lot of his early adulthood and Jersey. So he, as a producer, has the experience of every facet in layer of club culture alone that east coast, which I think is really cool. And I think that's kind of like the biggest story in sending the producer, but that song shake that had just been going crazy on the Internet for the past 6, 7 months. And they had the hip stance that goes along with it. The kids, the Philly ghosts that kind of like a dancing rap crew. And I think David dancing is actually just as if not more important than the song. Itself because those are the kids that are making a splash on TikTok. I mean, my daughter is doing the dance. And not really knowing where they're from. She knows that it's club music, but she doesn't know what the ins and outs of it. And I think that's the interesting feature of club music is that obviously as a way more global reach, but I think the language of club music has changed your way of yes before the BPM kind of was a help you distinguish where it was from, but now I think because of the Internet, the super fast and chaotic. So it's less about the BPM and more about what you can do to affect people with the music. And also it's implicitly de regionalized. So when we were talking before we started recording, you were talking about your daughter and kind of absorbing this stuff on TikTok and one of the things that's crucial about TikTok for a dance perspective, but also a music perspective is it's inherently de regionalized. Your daughter doesn't know where the dance has come from. Obviously it's up to people like us to kind of like tell the stories and like dig up the lineages and genealogies things, but if you're 12 years old or 14 years old or even 16 or 18 on the platform, you may not be thinking, ah, this is a Jersey club tempo. Ah, this is a Baltimore club familiar sample from Baltimore club. It's been de regionalized and because of that, the hybridization that's happening is so much more rapid, which leads me to kind of where I want to end and again, I was so happy to see Batman real on your list. So bam bam real is making records that are at the intersection of drill and club. And the reason I was happy you put him on this list is because one of my main thoughts about the Drake album is its low key anxiety about the rise of drill and where does he fit in with that? And maybe sort of like Tapping out, even it just being like, nope, not it. Okay, okay, I'm not gonna do that anymore. Like y'all have that. But The Batman real stuff and we'll play it at the outro to me seems like if there's like a viable path for someone like Drake to get involved in like this current moment, Batman rel seems to have a template. As he was saying, I was thinking what you were saying, the post regionalism of club music. I think production wise, that might be the case, but vocally it's still very regional. I think that band man real rapping the way that he does, which is more similar to New York drill, and I can't really specify the difference between drill and the boroughs of New York City because it's not really my terrain, but at the very least he sounds more like a New York rap, but he's ramping on Jersey club, and I think that's what's interesting about the Jersey club brand as opposed to what's coming up. I mean, Philly has its own accent. Obviously, but I think that even rapping kind of like on the drill temple, I feel. But I think that accents are slightly different. So it translates differently. And I honestly wasn't even up on the band member and making stuff into alfons Pierre from pitchfork. He did a whole thing on down that real. And actually Brandon calling the young writer based on North Carolina. He's the one that told me about the Philly stuff, like months ago, I'm less knowledgeable of the Jersey club, but I'm more, I'm more intrigued by it because of the crashing of influence that I can hear in it. And I always like when I can spot multiple influences in one artist or one song. And I think the Jersey club, right? That's what makes it the most interesting to me. But I do see why a person like Drake could be drawn to it because he obviously is into the UK drill scene, which is where the New York drill rap really comes from more than from Chicago and my and then with the club music on the beat we all know that drink is always at least for the past 6, 7 years always like to interact with dance music. So I can see that this clashing of cultures would be appealing to him or at least like a blueprint. While Lawrence, as always, I'm glad you were listening and paying attention. I'm listening and paying attention. And we know Drake is listening and paying attention. It always. That's our show. Thanks, Lawrence. Thanks to Joe.

"To wrap on House records. I think Drake loves broke with expensive tastes. Like there's no way. There's no way that's not getting burned in the ovo mansion in the compound in the embassy. It's too good and it's too original and it's too up his alley for him not to mess around with that. Don't you think? Yeah, I absolutely agree and I'm waiting has Azalea tweeted about it? I think Azalea is suspended from Twitter again. I could be wrong. I don't know. Okay, I just feel like a lot of people are like tweeting on her behalf, if not her. She has many representatives. Can we do two minutes on certified lover boy, just while we're here? Yeah, oh, yes, of course. Yes, you want to reassess the reassessment of certified lover boy. You think it's a masterpiece? I think it's really good. I think it's as good as any other major Drake album. And I think it has some of his sharpest brags. I think it has some of his sharpest anxieties to go ringer for one more moment. It's LeBron on the Lakers. And it's weighed down, I think where the bloat is in the features. But I think it has some of the best Drake songs of the last 5 years. I think love all minus JZ, amazing. TSU minus the R. Kelly sample in the background, amazing. Into deep with future amazing pipe down, race my mind, get along better, fair trade without Travis Scott. It's a good album and people are gonna remember that they like these songs in three years. I think it was the wrong album for that moment. I think the pandemic was supposed to be over and it was not over. I think that Drake is very annoying to people and was at his peak annoying after like two C slide, which isn't on the album. And also the album cover of CLB. I think it was bad timing, I think it was a bad rollout. I think it was bad marketing, much like views, which is maybe one of the better Drake albums. Look, I just think certified lover boy is a stand in for what people are sick of with Drake, but I don't think it is a bad Drake album. Okay, I will repeat something. I don't know if I hear what you're saying. I accept it. I don't know if I agree with it, but I will say something about how Drake albums age broadly speaking. And I've talked about this in previous writing about Drake and I feel like I'm sure we talked about it. More than really any other artist currently working Drake has his own grammar. He literally has a special keyboard, like a sound board that's like specific Drake sounds and ideas. Now, when we get a new record, oftentimes, I think what we're listening for are variations from the sound board. We're listening for innovations. Are we listening to, hey, he's putting together familiar ideas in new ways. Sure, but mostly we're kind of like, huh, didn't expect that, didn't see that coming, didn't know you've sampled that and you'd go in this direction, didn't know you cared about play a fly. Of course, we know he cares about play of life. There's that, but in terms of how Drake records age. From a distance what you hear is the sound board. Where you hear is the familiarity. Listening to a random song off CLB right now, I'm not even sure I could tell you. I might hear it and be like, was that on scorpion? Was that like somewhere two thirds into more life? Because he's fundamentally remixing ideas that are his ideas. They're his sounds. And so you could fundament you could plausibly make a total mashup Drake playlist of the last like 5, like this album, the last 5 or 6 projects. And apart from the big singles, you could put together a playlist, take off the album tag and a lot of these songs could have fit on any of the albums, because the Drake idea is a Drake worldview. That's the thing. And so maybe part of what you're saying about CLB actually being very good, maybe it's because if you listen to it with an ear for the broadness of Drake's catalog and the specificity of his soundboard, it makes a lot of sense, but in that moment, the ways in which it iterated were not either sufficient or exciting. Speculating speculating. I think that's totally right, and I think ultimately the argument I'm moving towards, which I'm not going to make now, but we should have another Drake podcast. I would venture to say before we hang up our headphones. Is that maybe Drake is a singles artist and not an album artist? And I don't even mean singles in terms of radio singles, but I mean he's a song's artist. And the reason we've never gotten the quote unquote classic Drake album is because he's given us a 150 plus songs with a capital S, you know? And maybe we never needed an album from him. And I think history looks back. Again, putting it out there tentatively that when history looks back, we're going to remember Drake for his four disc greatest hits, not for his albums. I'm just looking at the full discography, nothing was the same. Has to exist as an album. Thank me later. Yeah. But in that moment, right? They're so tied to the moment and I think like you're saying, with more space with more time with more distance, it's just a lot of good songs. And I don't know really how the arcs work. But I do think what you're saying about the grammar is interesting specifically to bring it back to honestly never mind because that grammar is not really here, right? It's here in bits and pieces, but I think part of what's taking me a while to understand about it is that it is a different language for Drake. I think we could quibble over that a little bit because to me, the first time I listened to this album, I was like, it's fresh, sweaty, and it's radical. By listen number 5, I was like, I know this guy. I agree. It's revealing itself as it goes. And I'll be interested to know, you know, I don't know if people sit with albums for a month or three months or 6 months. At this point, they certainly didn't with certified lover boy. Did you know that Kendrick Lamar put a record out three weeks ago? And I could imagine that Drake is going to just hit us again by the end of the summer with something else if he wants to. He already mentioned on radio that he was going to drop another scary hour. So who knows, but I will be interested to see how people feel about this a once it does get some burn in actual clubs RFP can folk as a lot of people tweeted when this came out, but also just, yeah, how this works in the long arc of Drake history, because I think 2 a.m. from bed, 7 a.m. from the hotel, that's not where this album will live ultimately. If it lives at all. And to that point before we go, I was DMing today with a couple different DJs who both said that these records were effective in a club environment this weekend and also it opened up the set to much more dance quote unquote music. It did for dance when he was a kind of what Dua Lipa or Doja Cat couldn't, which is basically bring it back to black tradition, bring it back to black queer tradition and tie it into like these broader hip hop and R&B quote unquote open format sets like moving back in that direction. So it would be interesting to see what the summer sounds like and I hope to see.

"Petty you know ultimately has really petty. It's also the Thing where i think in the public sphere is a really big mistake on all parties. Involved part i. I'm one of those people who like when butchered needed the lake. Baby reveal drink. I was kind of like grossed out because it again ultimately impacting this child's life and the mother of this child and using that as like just collateral damage because dramatic great. Who apparently set a bunch of stuff about your wife or something like. It's just nobody. Nobody is being terribly good person. All of this and that to me is the part where it's like. I really wish. I didn't have to see the side of you guys right right. It seemed across the line Quite a bit there and then but then is maybe. It's rain back. I guess there was a thing of posting posting addresses or whatever so it does always threaten to get it together contributed this like two extremely grown men. Who should probably not not be doing this. Let's talk a little bit more about some of the highlights of the drake on. Because i mean with the two of these albums you could probably cut them in half and make pretty excellent playlists. Surely kids already up to that on youtube. Act so definitely. I've i've i've seen. I've seen many playlists doing that. In fact i saw. I've seen a couple then. Make a short mix tape of the best of both of these albums which is kind of like that too but yeah i mean. There's definitely a lot to love on certify loverboy more to me. I think the record. It's hard for me to find a way in actually being like. Oh i love the song. But you know drake's affinity for the city of houston. His has been consistent throughout his career of cd. Welcome back and it was really cool to see the way. He flipped a few of the samples of some of the references. He made you know. I think that to me is drake at his most interesting. Where it's it's it's this autobiographical take on a different region or a different place in. It's almost like you're getting an interpretation of it's like anthony bourdain retelling his time in place. You know what. I mean you get it through this drake mind. That's always really interesting. Get road is like an anthem in the city of houston and drake does his thing with it. In a way that so respectable. He doesn't try to go in and make a new version of bundy he goes in and says i'm drake's i'm gonna slow it down making the sexy somber song but those crazy guitars that everyone in houston is so familiar with are gonna just bring out immediately And those were moments right. I thought was doing his thing. He was doing what he does Same goes for fountains with thames. I think he has afrobeat. Call it fixation appreciation. you know it. It doesn't come without its problems or it's conversations around gets ownership authorship but at the end of the day i think chief he puts himself in such a vulnerable position when he kinda adopts these. You know accents for relax. Better freeze where. It's almost like you get to watch someone actually do the work you know. It's it's easy to kind of do this tough guy posturing as much harder to actually try to match a musician from a different country and their vocalism and the way they speak in the way the tones.

It doesn't do what i think. someone like. Drake should be doing he. Drake is no longer Up and coming rapper. Drink is the biggest musician World on the planet by a mile. And what you can do in that position is so much different than what you would do as a you know. Tough guy street rapper. Drake missed a really huge opportunity here to make a very big record. I think if i remember crooked you like way. Too sexy allie. He's a great song. I think it's i think it's gonna go down as like a sleeper hit. That people are not. I think the people are with you. I i know that my first reaction was not positive. But i'm warming to it but i think the voice of the people with your dreams are going to be with you. He joins a taylor swift. Was i as far as modern day. Interpolations of a red said fred but beginning teacher young hug to hop on the track and i i think it was guaranteed to be some type of hit and i think it's i'm warming to it. I don't know it's a little maddening but like it's earworm worming away. That's a little bit hurtful but this is very strange. Thing that trait did that. I was really confused. He leaked economy. Track andrew three thousand on it. And i was actually a little confused like why did he. Leak addicitve himself with andre. Three thousand nine at. What was he trying to prove. I'm rarely totally confused. But i was actually a little confused by that that move i feel like it was a it was a very industry specific like it was very inside baseball. I don't know that that had anything to do with any of us listening to it and it had a frigging Drake telling I have access to the track. But i'm a play and drake saying i don't care here the track as you thought putting this out was going to be does death-knell for my career and do it before you get a chance to You know other at my reviews who cares a andres versus grave and i think even andres the statement afterwards is kinda even more just frustrating. Where it's like. He didn't want any party speed Yet so that whole thing was a little silly. It was just kinda like it's another one of these things of like nobody really cares about. This feud between guys. you're both gigantic musicians. It doesn't the state could not be lower for either. Drink has enough money to live several lifetimes and never lift a finger. Same with konya. So i just i find it hard to like to care that. They're mad at each other the animosity that they wanna throw these dishes back and forth. It's just so meaningless this point. Yeah thank you for explaining that. 'cause i i still don't get it but like it's very strange but i guess the thing is it driven. Connie don't even have to occupy the same space they don't necessarily occupy the same space. There's no reason that they should be directly. Beefing like this. And it's i mean i saw someone that maybe con is bothered by the fact that drake is perceived as attractive that there is that loverboy aspect to him. And that's not been a big thing in the connie westworld. That was interesting. I hadn't pondered that without going to analysis of connie as a young. Maybe he's jealous. Drake's looks i don't know i mean i think it all stems from a lot of like personal drama between them and drayton push you know dealing down further into their careers Petty you know ultimately has really petty. It's also the Thing where i think in the public sphere is a really big mistake on all parties..

"Is going on with. Drake sort of breaks down. I see that happening. I don't love it but then part of me gets it just on a purely business side. Where like do look at the way. Numbers work in this business. Now it's like you have the option to kind of do both and make a ton of money both ways yet it. It sort of dilutes secretive outputs lutes kind of what you're about overall but kind of the way things are. I believe in a more than that. I believe there's another if you're in this too late in my man you know. I agree and actually charles to that point. Here's here's a question right. The issue with the eminem comparison is really since the first three eminem records. Eminem is not making genuine pop hits. He's like a cult-figure he's like a cult figure with twenty million fans remember when coverage dropped dominating my high school in the worst way man. You wanna shout out your high school just to get some therapy cappella like mountain dew. Kids all right jeff as as as newly as as someone who was at rolling stone my old place of work let me tell you whenever to write about eminem. Just shut it all down low. No trust me. That was my first mistake. It were still get emails dude. I still get emails from tell you like my girl one day. She's going through some of your old photos like why are there paragraphs in paragraphs from people like about eminem and logic. And i'm like like people got it me on linked in they've asked the thing is interesting because again eminem. I understand that he has this intense cult following. And i understand that when he puts out records a lot of energy around them and like the fans get rousted. But he's not putting out like mainstream pop. Radio hits the way that drake is and in a way. Eminem has less to lose because eminem can just put out five ten fifteen twenty songs. That sound plausible laudable. Sad guitar eminem songs and the fans are gonna go crazy. Drake has the burden of the center of pop music on his shoulders. One of the things that i wrote that i didn't put in the piece but it was on my mind. Drake could never make uses a. He couldn't make a record. That's that's is. that's that much of a left. Turn that much of a violation of the core tenets of what the prior sound was. It's just not something. I don't know if drake wants to make a record like that but i don't think he can. You can't turn like a steamship that fast. But here's the thing. Though when jeff talked about eminem fans he was just like. Yeah the mountain dew. Kids you don't think like my biggest worry..

You're not the guys who can just go to a club anymore and just like mess around and make a song about it like everybody knows who you are and that is the interesting part about drake is like we never hear those stories of what it's like to be thirty four and everyone. Your best friend works for you. That's rough i. Beg that part of the remorse. I just don't like everything else on this record. Where i'm like you've done everything on this record for and that's my issue. I agree and this. Is you know drake closing songs. Always have some aspect of that inter excavation and i think this still felt fresh. Didn't feel like a rehash of prior drake. Closing songs was on. There really jumped out to me.

"That seems very consistent using different kinds of input. But it's very consistent neighborhood the minute you start reading. The lyric sheets is where it kind of falls apart. And that's what. I was struggling with jeopardy. Then i mean i think that's always been drake sort of problem that i think i wrote about this. My shameless plug. you know. he's he's always been he's always been kinda goofy like stumbling over himself. i think. that's the point. I i was kinda getting even the girls want girls where it's like. The idea that he's getting at is a little bit less super bad or whatever than the way it's executed. I think there is something. There's a kernel they're like. Oh i'm experiencing the world in a different way where am encountering women who like women. He stumbled over how to handle. I don't you think he just met some like cum laude. This isn't the first time drake as metal lesbian. If you're in the club in twenty-one versus twenty fifteen. I think numbers. I don't i can't give him sorry. I'm sorry man. I'd i'd things are changing. And he's right. I understand the things are yes in the discourse things are changing. But i promise you in the houston atlanta vegas era i. I'm certain i'm certain that drake had encountered a woman who enjoyed the company. I mostly i just you know but flip. the idea. Is that you know it was easier for him. I think in the past for certain cringe-worthy lines. I mean do a shutout two asian girls. Let the lights dim sum. That's fair okay. Don't own your unit. Also it's like i. I think i think the reason why the those lines and those moments didn't kind of fully derail old records is that they fit in a larger context of something that was cohesive. And you did what i needed to do. I think the reason why it's easier with this record to kind of be distracted by drake essentially.

He understands that he's not the first person to do that. And he's usually. I would say reasonably able to miss the obvious dunks or rather chooses not take the say. Why do you think this was something. He decided to rap about in this way. Like do you think he didn't see a backlash coming by do you think. He's unaware of the progressive conversations about sexuality that happened on the internet like what's going on. I feel like he was trying to tease out. Something quasi regressive that makes it. He says jeff. I've come on. i'm sorry. Can you can you jack everywhere in this plane. Because i'm in the air what you now live. No no okay okay..

"So here's drake channel houston. Unfortunately as many have noted channelling an r. kelly songwriting credit. But it is drake paying homage to an influential sound. An influential person. True story when i did a feature in twenty twelve or whatever. We were driving through the streets toronto and who called right on the phone at like midnight. But og ron seat as a real and drag. It was the first time. I think they talked on the phone. Drake locked this number and here we are nine years later with. Og raunchy on the record. There's little houston on this record. Afrobeat some low memphis on this record. I couldn't help but think dan like. Where's the drake cra merica record. There are so many emergent sounds and scenes. And i believe fundamentally drake is paying attention. Why is there not more of that. Because that's ultimately where his gifts lie to start as a as a houston native. I think touches the touches of houston north or south side. South west uses all right city. Not a lotta rappers can do that where they go into different region and actually get fully adopted by that region. I did a story a little while ago. Talking to maximum cream and before you can even make a wise crack about. It's like not not. He's he's held the down for since day. One that line from back in oneida warehouses bun coming. Like i remember that show. I remember trying to go to that. Show 'cause girl had a crush on was going like he's been in that city and respectful to that seen the whole time and you can say the same for you. Know all of the the sound for memphis memphis even uk. More or less. You know he he. He's whoa respect. Respects the places that that goes you know. And it's like and. I think i think that's something that especially for someone at that pedigree of hip hop to be going into smaller regional scenes that deserve a lot more credit than they get on the mainstream not just like pull it but adapted to what he's already doing that's something special..

"Now's xs very hyper internet. This is someone who has constantly posting in doing things to gain that attention. He did a weird thing with tony hawk the other day. Now you tweet give you know. And i think he's a trawler chicago star in the best way. Shriek will absurd trying to match that level of kind of online nests for of better. But i think i think he plays. He plays his part very well. I think he does his like shirts. On a tick-tock hit but all over instagram stories. It's the top song. Pick for literally. Anything and i think he knows where he fits into the current landscape in a way that i think is actually more savvy than a lotta people. Give him credit for like he would be very weird with a tick. Talk hitler that would feel weird for everyone involved. That's why Even though it still gets up but could you imagine come on. Just humor me for a second right. Drake's i talk on his account right and what it is. Is you know maybe it's two a coil array song. I don't know maybe it's backyard. Boys like who knows. But like all of a sudden it's like i it's draped with a clean hairline and then it's like going hiding somewhere and then coming back with a heart like you know what i mean like. I talk kind of giving you. He's an rob in one of these extremely sweaters that he's wearing as part of the rollout like he's giving you texture he's giving you volume. He's giving you shape. He's giving you wet draping like that's a fire. Tick-tock i've andrei. I'm trying to do that. And yet. There's something so unregulated about tech. Talk as a space that i think in drake is like a little bit you particular that i think he won't let himself to it. I think it's to the point that we were talking about earlier into my point about weight. You sexy being a fantastic record. You know a drake. That is unbeaten song exploded. A drake. that's unburdened by all this nonsense. Going around is someone who i think. Have a lot more fun. I think the drink we remember from pre beef of any kind is someone who was down to be way more sealion way more kind of like absurd in in not self serious and that that's why i think. A lot of people liked about him. He knows funded himself in a really interesting and funny way. But i think he's been pushed into this position of posturing for so long that he's kinda lost. It's like we need the drake tick talk with the weird hand rub in everything. That's actually just realized the sound for that tick talk is the when you wipe your tears do you wipe them just for and then you come back with the heart.

"Wait to get into that. Worse than strike has ever made my And i will go to my grave. Jalen i got as you just said that song title and immediately sleeves. My t shirt just got torn up. Don't even know what they just disappear. That's honestly a great way to think about drink. Even when like drake samples like the reason. I'd like nice for what versus like way too. Sexy is because. I think drake is very good when he's sampling record about showing you something that was in the record that only drake could fide whereas like way too sexy. He's like a perfect example. Drake you just took an already like cheesy popular song and then just had like future interrelated like very lazily like. You're not adding anything to the musical conversation. Which is something that i think. Drake honesty a lot of times was better than connie at evidently and also a song also. That was weirdly. Interpolated by taylor swift. Already you can't even really make the case like giancarlo. Jeff jeff's on the post post post low key. Because it's like it's like it's like you were saying about. Tc side like he manufactured this talk. It and i agree with that idea where it's like. I think drake understands us culture in a way that you know the guys thirty three thirty four at this point you know. He understands it better than most people that he than me. He's only owner than me. You know but he understands it in on a fundamental level. That in a way that i think a lot of people that had struggled to and i think keith with way. Too sexy yeah. It's kinda obvious it's kind of silly but if you open up any social media right now it doesn't matter what benign thing kid is doing. That is the song they're putting on it for the next little while. Wait can i push back on that. Do we actually think. Drake is as good at understanding youth culture as he was in the past. I still deke is better than other thirty four year old rappers but like. I don't know if people i don't know of young people will feel certified loverboy in the same way. They'll feel any random rodway record or any low baby. Yes and i think to that point here. We are drake still wrapping in the year of our lord. Twenty twenty one about how his rhymes make for. Good instagram captions dog. When was the last time you posted to feed on instagram. When was the last time you need. I'm sorry when was the last time that happens. I truly an end. I do spend a lot of time. Let's talk. I don't feel i drink is pervasive on todd. I don't even think he doesn't even have best. I can tell an official to talk count. I don't think he's music is pervasive montek. Talk i think the type of things that are successful talks sonically. Don't necessarily go hand in hand with what drake is good at and so i think that's a fair point.

"There's a lot of songs. Tacked on sound like. He is referencing that beef and mike. How many bloating drake albums can we have where you're constantly re-litigating beasts that it seems like the whole world is kind of like a guys and all last literally not what he's best suited. I mean like people get distracted for all kinds of reasons in. I'm currently distracted from writing a big. By y'all era there are valid and and non valerie distracted. But i think on a fundamental level especially when i think of drake draping distracted on account of this feels like in essence a violation of the thing that i think he's genuinely exceptional at which is songcraft. Construction bringing in different influences and crafting broadly appealing music. Out of sounds that maybe other people would have thought were niche or regional or. Someone's worth that to me. If we're going to distill the drake gift. That's the great gift and yet so much of this record is anxiety about what it's like to be at the top anxiety about whose father no one's my father. Was that a shot at. Obviously he's a father. Who's the daddy this is. This is literally the call. Her daddy of rap beefs unit. I mean like and so. I wonder like between drake and yeah and we'll get back to the specifics of being a minute. Who does this detract from moore. Who does it derail the narrative of more think drake completely. I think konya for talking about las. Three records has been derailed more by the outside world than any of the trump thing and all of everything that's going on in his situation and not to mention that i think connie has leaned into the sort of reality star thing a lot more than someone like drake who tends to be pretty close guarded in close to the chest. And it's a real shame because i think you know as you mentioned all the things that drake as well. I think that last point about bringing in sounds that people haven't heard or might not be attention to is really. What drake was getting exceptionally good at. I think he's talked about more life. And that was a record that brought a lot of sounds to a mainstream american audience. That for better or worse would not be as prevalent as they are now. If it weren't for that record you know if there wasn't a one dance. I don't think it would have been as astronomical growth of afropop in west african music in mainstream american pop culture as we've seen in the past year or two and you know that to me is is more is more youth focused. It's more like it's more real about what hip hop is essentially about them trying to do this sort of re litigation of the way things happened in nine hundred ninety nine i think out of everything that's transpired over. The past couple of weeks like connie comes out on top just because all he had to do is released a semi coherent album fish and people are going to be like hani's back this is the best thing he's drops into the life of pablo whereas i think like drake was actually the one who the world never gave up on drake. The world gave up on county for very valid odds real. You know what i'm saying. And drake i think was the chosen one. It's like yo- even want. His albums are bloated. They're still three or four songs that that sound like some of the best songs you get her undeniable their undeniable..

Mules of all the treasure which came from panama. By the king's appointment although the silver only was kept their the gold pearl and jewels being there once entered by the kings officer was carried from thence to the king's treasure house not far off being a house.

Each bar was between thirty five and forty pounds in weight at site hereof. Our captain commanded straightly that. None of us should touch a bar of silver but stand upon our weapons because the town was full of people and there was in the king's treasure house near the water side. More gold and jewels than all our four penises with presently set. Some in hand to break open notwithstanding the spaniards report the strength of it.
