Now, when it comes to the accolades that I give Drake as far as being the goat, the mascot of hip hop, that goes without saying. So there's no need me to state it again, right? So anyways, Drake currently is showcasing why a marketing rollout is very effective for any artists as Drake being one of the top artists in the world, currently having, what did I miss, being the eighth most played track in the world. Nokia is the 31st most played track in the world, been on the world. charts about 22 weeks but safe to say when it comes to party next door and drake and their album that is still the 18th most played project in the world Drake is one of the top artists in the world so with that being said if he's going to put out music and given an actual effective marketing rollout i believe we can see some of the biggest first week numbers that we've ever

seen for Drake and don't let him attach vinyl to it if you don't know The reason why hip-hop artists don't really try vials before the project comes out. It's because of people leaking music. If you get a vinyl, if you're working at a certain place and the vinals come in, best believe I'm not saying everybody's going to do this who works at warehouses, but somebody's going to get their hands on one of those vials. And then it just so happens now it's out on the internet. So as far as hip-hop, I don't know why.

but it seems like it's the only genre where this happens frequently. I'm not saying it doesn't happen in other genres, but in hip hop it happens way more often than you would think. So that being said, of course I've listened to which one by Drake and Central C. I believe this particular track is something that I talked about all the way in Iceman episode one. Now, of course, like I always say,

the information I get, you know, I just made it up. honestly i don't know how i got this but when it came to iceman episode one all the way back july fourth 2025 i literally had a specific segment titled face first by drake now there was a whole driving route that drake was doing and he was playing music throughout and interestingly enough one of the beats was just an instrumental and he was just rapping over it i mean he was singing over it you know he's saying face first face first face first and i thought to myself this is the next single if you don't believe me just go to drake analytic dreams and it should pop up as far as my iceman episode one coverage and i call that all the way back in july fourth now i thought it was

pretty obvious obviously not people was focusing on what uh what did i miss in supermax which i also focused on that and when it comes to iceman episode one i'm just going to come out and say it was Leaps and bounds ahead of Iceman episode two. It seemed like episode one was the first impression, obviously, so he wanted to go all out. Episode two, he was being chased by Pinocchio. I kid you not. You guys. See, that's the problem.

So when it comes to that, I just focused on the music. I thought it was pretty solid. As far as a single, we'll have to see how it does. I do believe Drake calling out Billboard as far as not having number one, it's very tone death. tone deaf. It's like, Drake doesn't realize he's suing his own label. Is he the only one on his team that doesn't realize he sent a lawsuit towards UMG's way, claiming them of using illegal practices like Paola?

So now, if you're trying to blow up the whole music industry, because allegedly, that may be how any artist pops off, people are going to be upset and they're not going to promote your music like that. So if you're authentically getting number of, two, which is still a significant accomplishment. I said when Drake was complaining about number one, when I was looking at future projections,

I was like, he better be glad if he could stay in the top 10, which currently, like I just said, as far as his singles being considered, what did I miss? Is that number eight? So it's way harder than you think to have a top tier hit stay in the top five. And the way that you do that is literally having airplay. if you don't know what airplay is it's basically the radio things of that nature and the syndication over airwaves and with that being said uh drake doesn't have a lot of it to be exact because i just want to let you know how less support drake is getting compared to other tracks um let me see what did i miss

is currently getting well this is 14.4 million airplay but i want to talk about that that's future projections for August 2nd I want to talk about now so it's July 26th okay let me see all right so what did I miss number 8 it has 9.7 million airplay and then when it comes to Alex Warren and his track ordinary Alex Warren has 74.0 so basically 74 million airplay for his track ordinary you guys see that's the so when I put it in perspective on why Drake shouldn't complain about the industry is because you turned into Aubrey Cairn. You are telling on the music industry, they don't like it. So what you're seeing as far as, well, what the fans are seeing from an outside perspective

is the first time we've ever seen Drake without his superheroes to back him up. You know how the Avengers comes up, come out as a group and they take out Ultron or they take out Thanos, but now Drake is all by himself. He is like Captain America at the end of end game except ain't nobody coming to save him. So we're going to see if he could really withstand the assault of a UMG lawsuit battle. Radio stations trying to be hands off with Drake because you're trying to blow up their spot. There's a lot of things that Drake is doing that is indeed the red button. This is the red button Drake was talking about.

Whenever I was thinking to myself, I was like, why would he think that's a red button? Oh, it's because everybody's paying for play. allegedly. So now if you actually win and you actually expose that whole system, there's a lot that needs to be reconstructed to even have a music industry. So people are paying for play. Where have we heard that before? You guys. See, that's the problem. So with that being said, it's a very bigger problem that Drake has and it was it will not be resolved until the UMG lawsuit is. over. So that being said, my personal review of the which one track by Drake and Central C, I will say I enjoyed it. My favorite part was listening to Central C repeat which one, which one, because his

accent combining with the beat, I think that was a match made in heaven because that was definitely his type of beat to float over. And when Drake came back on with his track face first, which is like the second half of which one i thought that was pretty solid the main thing i like is that it's solid music is nothing that feels uninspired um he gave us a rapping track more melodic that um what did i miss had and then of course you gave us a dance hall afrobeats type of track with which one feature in central c and now you're going to give us a certain track that's going to be filled with hard hitting bars and let's just say a lot of people are going to catch some I know that ain't who I think it is.

Y'all gonna be listening to Drake say some of the things that he says on his next track and y'all gonna think to yourself. I know that ain't who I think it is. And you know my sources are I made it up obviously, you know, my sources are just I made it up. But ultimately when I was right about the face first track as far as Iceman episode one, and that being a legit snippet and sneak peek into this Iceman episode two, and It's funny how there's another instrumental that he obviously let play without lyrics for a reason. And I think, I just think we may just hear the hard hitting and the revelations that the lyrics showcase whenever it comes out in Iceman, episode three.

So with that being said, click my link to your bio. Let me know one of my social media is. What do you think about Drake and his track, which one featuring Central Seas? do you think it's fire do you think it's trash what do you think about the whole industry not really giving drake the radio support that he usually gets before he sued his label and what is your favorite track out of which one and what did i miss
