DJ Akademiks, one of Drake’s biggest fans and defenders, says that the once famous “Dake Stimulus Package” is now over.
Before his beef with Kendrick Lamar, having Drake on a track would make it an instant hit…but after Drizzy’s image took a beating, folks are no longer running to stream a track just to hear the Canadian rapper.

“I think, you know, no pun intended, Drake’s wings slightly feel clipped. The Drake stimulus package right now doesn’t exist. So Drake going on Camilla Cabello’s track didn’t do nothing. That’s a fact,” he said.
Their collab “Hot Uptown” reached no.86 on the Billboard charts before completely falling off. Her single “I Luv It” with Playboi Carti charted higher, peaking at No. 81.

Since the beef, Drake has released several collaborations. “U My Everything,” with Sexyy Red peaked at No. 44 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
