Drake Is Having A Midlife Crisis..

midlife crisis we've all heard of it most of us have seen it you know that older guy who constantly brings up the past feels the need to overcompensate and flex with the current financial status bring up the fact that they can still bag a baddie dress 20 years under their age and decide to try out you know a new hairstyle just because use current popular slang to sound cool D what are you thinking we all know who Drake is by now he's arguably the most famous man on Earth and a record-breaking artist Drake has a lot of accomplishments five Grammys 12 number one albums 170 million records sold he's a man of Errors you had freshman Drake AKA Jimmy Hot Wheels AKA cardigan Drizzy you had sad boy Drake he was dropping lightskinned bangers I ain't even going to lie you had pop star Drake aka the six God AKA Jamaican Drake cuz bro was smashing Riri Lord have mercy on about to bust and that box must have been lifechanging cuz bro been speaking pwwa since no lie then you had lover boy Drake AKA meme Drake cuz at this point bro it was just jokes like I was really questioning if this [ __ ] was even a real person anymore but now we've entered a new era of Drake an interesting one to say the least it's safe to say the hungry motivated Drake who wanted to do right and kill everything has left the building Bros beond on the building rose on vacation sumwhere with a 24-year-old talking about wish I didn't take you here Drake is a lot like Gohan you know a lot of potential a lot of skill what's going on the kid's power level just exploded we enjoyed Gohan and then boom time skip he's corny and everyone is like damn what happened God yeah that's Drake it's without saying Drake has had a phenomenal run and arguably the greatest artist of our gener generation but where Drake Peak is Up For Debate and to be honest it's a personal opinion but if I had to choose a point where I feel like Drake peaked in my eyes it was probably like scorpion in 2018 that was the last album where I felt the magic of a drake record and felt like he was truly in his prime not to say that Drake hasn't released good music since because he got some joints you got some joints but no project has hit me on a lyrical and subject matter level since scorpion this new era Drake is the prime example of this decline but his most recent release for with the dogs it's clear that Drake's once R now lyricism has taken multiple steps backwards instead of forward yeah I know what some of you were going to say but bro he walked on 8:00 a.m. in Charlotte like yo he had bars like he went crazy bro you bugging like okay okay okay okay yeah bars and I love to see that I love it Grizzy how's it going oh man I feel like I feel like it's going great you're doing a good job good job that's it I'm doing great you [ __ ] say that again in my face but one track out of 23 Songs is not building my confidence and bro like come on whoa calm down Jamal don't pull out the nine and to be honest there's so much more criticism to be said on Drake's musical decline like are Drake's lyrics dumb down and sometimes outright corny and cringe yes are Drake's flows more generic than ever and are simply imitations of new age artists yes is Drake's content lacking substance and out of touch with his CORE family base yes did jcole eat Drake up on that track of course he did he's jcole come on now but I believe all these issues are deeper than music cuz at the end of the day music is just a projection of a person's mindset and personality is it not it brings a more interesting question is Drake's music changing for the worst or is he changing as a person well let's break that down starting off with Drake's image as I said Drake is a man of Errors many of which tell a story of growth and progression there were a couple things Drake stri for he wanted to be the top of the game he wanted to prove that he had the mightest touch when it came to the pen and he wanted to make sure his family was good for Generations we all watched him strive for it we all watched him achieve it but what happens when you feel you've reached what you set out for what's next it seems instead of continuing forward Drake has actually took steps back in maturity of his music dropping lines that you would expect to hear from an artist that's years younger than Drake himself even on a physical level you could see a sudden dramatic change in how Drake portrays His Image scorpion Drake showed us an older more mature Drake who accepted his new role into fatherhood and physically he mirrored this but then skipped forward a couple years and Drake is walking around with hearts in his head like a teenager in 2010 he's growing cornrows and wearing colorful hair clips like girls who play jump rope in the street in middle school he's dressing like that kid in high school shops at Goodwill and says G you know I just put this look together you feel me like I I just wanted to get creative with it and bro's looking like a straight clown like come on bro walk around with AST boy feet like what what is this it seems that Drake is more concerned with dressing like a 20-year-old than dressing his age when it comes to personality Drake is more Corky than ever like bro basically a walking meme at this point and to be honest I actually find it funny and I enjoy that he could act dumb sometimes for my entertainment but it's to the point now where I'm actually thinking Drake is this corny in real life like I don't think this [ __ ] is a act anymore bro sitting on socials all day trying to bag every [ __ ] he can like Bros really ass trying to catch them all but instead of being horny kid years old he's 36 years old all right what's up o ladies don't forget your man Drake Drake red team red BR like at that point you think you'd mature past that stage by now and be focusing on [ __ ] that really matters but no current Drake gives off the vibe like he's doing anything to remain relevant which ironically is tarnish in his legacy what made Drake stand out in the first place was his ability to bring his own lane and not sound like everything that was out at the time in a way it's what made him special and you think at the level that Drake is at he'd be the one leading the way for the younger generation of artists and setting the standards for what the sound should be but no instead he follows what they do in order to hop on waves that were already started hi I'm Drake and I'll be Drake is not always been perceived as the most confident guy there's been times where he's clearly shown insecurities to be honest that's just being human but another common human behavior is feeding into insecurities and longing for what has already passed Drake is not in his 20s anymore he's past his Prime and it's obvious deep down Drake feels some type of need to align with the younger generation but it seems he's willing to tarnish his legacy to do so and well that's just too bad and let's be real I'm not going to say what another grown ass man should be wearing maybe Drake just wants to express himself more with outfits and his hairstyles I've done it when I was 20 but hey to each his own I can't speak for the man or say for sure what he feels internally but I can just point out what I see and a midlife crisis doesn't seem far out there when you take into consideration the evidence that's given but hey I hope the best for him he'll always be one of my favorite artists of all time and I respect him and his legacy immensely I just hope as a man he finds his way as I hope for all man cuz it would be a shame to see another strong Legacy for the shambles embarrassing
