Making the best of the weekend - NBA all-star weekend 💫; LA Edition 👊🏾

@Son_ImSleep How do people support someone who doesn’t take care of their family. Same person flossing luxury and cash on the net. That’s clown behavior in my opinion

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@djGodLee @blockboi_4eva @RonaldPKaweesa @HotNewHipHop You don’t think the old guard has some say over who gets signed and pushed by the labels

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@theologyuvages @HotNewHipHop Got it

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@AyedatsBS @dejonpaul_ Understood

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@__June5th @HotNewHipHop Look it up

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@thatguy_Ty6 People are going crazy right now - they really wanted him to fail

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@AyedatsBS @dejonpaul_ I hear you lol. Women choose who they want; how is it only his fault?

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@AyedatsBS @dejonpaul_ Why aren’t they mad at the girl?

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@__June5th @HotNewHipHop Bro the list is so long for Drake - I’d say other artists

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@muheediva01 I want to know so I can encourage them to keep going

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@__June5th @HotNewHipHop Hear it from the artists 🤷🏽‍♂️

🎙️🔥Dave reportedly in an interview on Drake:

"To be honest, I still don't understand why so many people are always coming for Drake. You're talking about someone who's influenced a whole generation of rappers and singers in many ways and from my experience, he's always shown love. He didn't have to jump on 'Wanna Know' when he did, but he did, and that opened doors for me that probably would've taken much longer to open otherwise."

"Beyond the music, I've always respected how he carries himself. People see the headlines and the controversies, but they don't always see the support he gives behind the scenes. That's why whenever these conversations come up, I look at the reality of what he's done for the culture and for artists like myself, and the criticism just doesn't always add up."

@blockboi_4eva @RonaldPKaweesa @HotNewHipHop I already did - read the thread

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@blockboi_4eva @RonaldPKaweesa @HotNewHipHop When is the last time a hip hop album was on the billboard 100 and 200 for multiple weeks? I’ll wait.

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@onthelow666 @HotNewHipHop The fact that you don’t know of any proves my point.

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@RonaldPKaweesa @HotNewHipHop There’s a reason why country music and not hiphop has been dominating the billboard 100 and 200. Look into it.

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

This is a fact: Radio airplay can significantly affect an artist’s Billboard chart performance, depending on which Billboard chart you’re talking about.

For the Billboard Hot 100, the formula includes:

Streaming (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, etc.), Digital song sales, and Radio airplay

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@Pink_Marse @HotNewHipHop The radio effects billboard placements

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

These people have the power to silence artists they don’t like - like you just mentioned about 50 cent and you know his history. In addition the following plays a role:

Editorial playlist teams at streaming services, DSP algorithms, TikTok trends and influencers, and Major media platforms and podcast networks. If they want to shut someone down they can or attempt to hence Drake.

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@Pink_Marse @HotNewHipHop None of them get radio play - NBA was battling with YouTube for a long time.

[Eddy Cane @eddysvision]

@Pink_Marse @HotNewHipHop Diddy, Charlemagne, Ebro (when he was at hot 97), Lyor Cohen, Lucian Grainge, Jimmy Iovine, etc.
