It's a great time to be alive for Drake and Future

People say that "consistency is everything"and a lot of times we don't listen. However, I got to thinking... That statement really is true, especially in the music and fashion world. Whoever is hot gets the most attention from society in both music, fashion and a lot of times even sports.

What A Time To Be Alive cover by Drake & Future.

As many may know, Drake and Future came out with a new joint-mixtape on Sunday evening, that had the hip-hop world in a frenzy. Most hip-hop fans loved it, and so did a lot of rappers, but there were some that weren't so fond of the mixtape. (P.S. I loved it.) So far throughout the week I've seen all kinds of memes and tweets about this mixtape, some funny, praising the duo for a fire mixtape, but some fellow rappers, like Kid Cudi who think it's mediocre. Yes, from a musical side of things, this mixtape was mediocre, but lyrically it's one of the best, and the producers laid out creative and suave beats that I think rival any of the bests. Either way, this mixtape stirred up a lot of opinions because Future and Drake are two completely different rappers. Drake being known for his love songs, or songs with a very catchy slogan, and Future's "trap music" educating the hood on the real life situations. So for both of them to come into this, and make this mixtape was quite controversial.

With all this frenzy, I think this is a perfect time for the two rappers to get a leg up in the fashion world. They need to start making statements, being bold and voice their opinion when it comes to fashion. Future has somewhat been in the fashion world, but Drake not so much. I just think that sine they are both on top of the rap game for the time being, they should (and probably will) start getting some music videos from the mixtape together, and also should rock some new stuff we haven't seen before if they really want to take everything over. This could be a great time for the two rappers who are already known as two elite modern rappers. Don't be surprised if you wake up, and these two rappers are all over commercials, clothing stores and award shows.
