Where would Drake be ? ..

Question : Where would the career of singer Drake be without Eminem's verse on Forever?

Insight : Thinking back, when the song Forever was released, most people to hear it were taken away by Em's verse, as it seemed to mark his true return to form. Without Em on that song, it is probably a middle or the road hit, not the huge single it became. Which leads me to this, had Drake not been so lucky to have Eminem on his biggest song yet, where would Drake even be today? Sure, his album would have still done well, but who knows...maybe he wouldn't get all this "up and comer" talk he seems to get.

Personally, i think Drake flows the same every time he raps, and he is trying way too hard to duplicate the Wayne success story. I think he should thank Eminem for where he is right now.

He had a lot of hype way before "forever"

I don't think it affected anything.

yeah this is true, but i believe that Forever was the one the really shot his name out there. Not saying Em is responsible for Drake's entire success, but I think he plays a huge role in it, without getting an ounce of credit.

He got his hype from being on Young Money, and being the first person to get on the charts with a mixtape.. Nothing else.
