I've really loved Samara Cyns output, as well as Conway ever since Griselda became known. Didnt care too much for the new Rapsody album, unfortunately. Looking for a new album that feels complete, start to finish. With some hits and an overarching story lyrically and/or sonically.
Edit: are the Drake stans really so toxic they go through and downvote everything besides Drake memes? Jeezuz fking christ, get a life.
Edit2: to all Drake stans trying to be cute: I feel so sad for you and your whole existence and anyone in your physical life that has to put up with you. You are unbearable online, and I cannot fathom how that translates to your offline social life, if there even is one.
Edit3: cant you Drake stans see that you are the only ones being offended that I wanted a post that avoided any focus on Drake and Kendrick? I hate all you stans - both Drakes and Kdots - but jeez, introspection is a virtue
On ICEMAN closer “Make Them Know,” Drakemakes his sustaining disinterest in chasing Grammys recognition as clear as ever by vowing to not submit the album for consideration. Now, per a new report, it’s all but guaranteed that he made good on that promise.
To be eligible for the 2027 Grammys, a work must have been released between Aug. 31, 2025 and Aug. 28, 2026. The submission deadline was Aug. 21. All three of Drake’s 2026 full-lengths would have been eligible for consideration, including ICEMAN.
According to a recent Billboard report, however, he declined to submit that album, as well as Habibti and Maid of Honour. The report also cites sources as saying that the OVO Sound co-founder opted against submitting specific songs for consideration, as well.
Complex has reached out to a rep for the Recording Academy for comment. This story may be updated.
As it stands now, Drake has five Grammy wins to his name, and numerous nominations. Most recently, “Somebody Loves Me,” a song off his and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U project, was a contender in the Best Melodic Rap Performance category at this year’s ceremony. It lost to Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther.”

“He ain’t take a damn thing back. There never was a verse ... But that man stayed with me [for the whole album]. I’m thankful for that.”

The mainstream rappers at the top may not have delivered this year, but MANEESH ON THE BEAT SHABANG!
Elite lyricism is alive in 2026. Ghostwritten or not.

The rapper's 775 YouTube videos have amassed a total of 19 billion views. For years, he was the most popular artist on the platform, ahead of both Drake and Taylor Swift.
The Louisiana native is currently the rapper with the most RIAA-certified Gold songs in history and the youngest artist to achieve 100 entries in the Billboard Hot 100, but he's never had a No. 1 hit.
Most people either consider him one of the most important musicians alive today, or have never even heard his name.
⭐️ What do you think of NBA Youngboy career?
I relistened to FNL and it’s one of the best mixtapes of all time imo but I never hear it talked abt like that bro and speaking of which the song Farwell off of this joint and it’s is arguably one of the best written hip hop tracks of all time man I love the tape but what are y’all’s thoughts?
The scholarship includes full tuition coverage, one-on-one mentorship from top industry professionals, automatic enrollment in Roc Nation's extensive academic and mentorship program, and more.
Lil Wayne with elite project consistency like Kendrick Lamar lvl
or
Drake with non bloated albums like he keeps the track list short but great
Who would be better?
(This is just a random bs post lol)
"I want to quit right now, actually. But all of this... It's way bigger than me. I just want to make people happy, and if I can't do that, then I just want to stay out of the way."
"I feel like my W will be shown through my kids, you know? It's not about money or any of my own achievements. If you were to meet them right now and say to me, 'I think you did a great job,' that's the win. That's the motivation that keeps me going."
Hear me out. I was just watching it and realized there is literally zero flaw in this video.
Every single shot is so precise. The energy, the pacing, the framing , the whole thing just moves with an unmatched rhythm. Not a wasted frame, not a single awkward angle. Everything is locked completely in sync.
Am I wrong? Am I tripping? Go watch it and let me know
"I'm going real R&B. Most of the songs are like s*xual though, it's probably 2 or 3 heartbreak songs. Most of them are just like fun times, but it's R&B, though."
