Comment: I am here to neither praise nor bury Drake, although I thoroughly enjoy his new album I can think of three better by the Canadian rapper at a minimum: Certified Lover Boy is a whole lotta fun but it ain’t Views. No I come to ask a question: if you believe streaming Hot 100s is the equivalent of pre-streaming then you must believe that buying a song is the same as streaming one. When you buy a song there is whole hella more invested. My point is that while Drake’s domination of the charts here is very impressive, it isn’t in the same league as The Beatles Top Five in 1964. Also, my fave, “Fair Trade” ain’t here…
