I do not like this song at all. My little sis loves it and plays it when we're on the phone.
I hate it!

alright so i watched the video, i like it. of course people who dislike drake will find something to clown him on then turn a blind eye on their favorite rapper who is faker than a 2 dollar bill...drake is the real deal tbh.
him saying he started from the bottom is true. he didn't become a star over night, he had to start from somewhere, right? everyone has a "bottom" and everyone's bottom is different. he started rapping at talent shows and hole in the wall pubs to selling out arenas, he started from the bottom.
just because he grew up in the burbs and was on a low budget sitcom most of us didn't watch, doesn't mean he grew up with rich or content. he had a dream, saw it and accomplished it. that's what the song is all about.
| Actually those of us (88-93) pretty much came up with Drake becuase of Degrassi. So he didn't come "from the bottom" at all. We in that age group held him down from day 1 jr.

I like Drakes music in general.
I don't care about any artists persona. I don't watch videos or have an Instagram so I care not

You're missing the point. The bottom is selling records out your trunk because no one's heard of you. Drake didn't have to do that.
Biggie rapped on the streets, Nas rapped in parks, Big Sean rapped at college campuses with just a boom box and a mic, Wale road up and down Georgia Ave, KDP and the danger zone for suport, J. Cole went to Saint Johns and pretty much stalked Hov for a chance
Drake got to skip that because he was already in the middle.
