ο»ΏIn a surprising move that has sparked heated debates across the hip-hop community, Drake, the renowned Canadian rapper, has officially crowned SZA, Travis Scott, and 21 Savage as the new members of the “Big 3” in his latest diss track, “Drop and Give Me 50.”
The song, released on streaming platforms yesterday, not only showcased Drake’s lyrical prowess but also stirred controversy with its bold declaration. Traditionally, the term “Big 3” has been associated with iconic rap trios like The Notorious B.I.G., Tupac Shakur, and Jay-Z or Eminem, Dr. Dre, and 50 Cent.
However, in his latest track, Drake seems to be challenging the conventional hierarchy by anointing SZA, Travis Scott, and 21 Savage as the successors to the throne. The decision has sparked a flurry of reactions from fans and fellow artists alike.
While some fans have praised Drake for his forward-thinking and inclusivity, others have criticized the move as premature and disrespectful to the legends of the genre. Many have taken to social media to express their opinions, with hashtags such as #NewBig3 and #DrakesBig3 trending worldwide.
The inclusion of SZA, known for her soulful R&B sound, alongside rap heavyweights like Travis Scott and 21 Savage has raised eyebrows and ignited discussions about the evolving landscape of hip-hop and its intersection with other genres.
As the debate rages on, one thing is certain: Drake’s declaration has sparked a new chapter in the ongoing narrative of hip-hop’s elite, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the responses from SZA, Travis Scott, and 21 Savage, as well as the wider hip-hop community.
