Would GNX hit the same without the Drake beef?

Without the Drake beef, I think it’s quite a linear project that oozes West Coast flavour. Even though that’s a great thing, it is quite limited for the rest of the world. Kinda like old New York rap, the LA / West Coast style appeals to more people from Those areas than outside.

Looking at the hip hop industry, party / rage music and music for the youth / chicks is the main thing promoted. Think Ice Spice, Central Cee, Jack Harlow (no rage examples included😆) etc.

Personally, I believe the album may of actually been a total flop if it didn’t have any beef associated with it.

Tell me I’m wrong and why, I’m interested.
