If you’re not credited you are not officially a performer on it. I’m pretty sure people would have a problem if I counted Sledgehammer as Meghan Trainor’s eighth top 40 hit when its clearly just a Fifth Harmony song which she has writing credits on. Drake actually performs on the track though. Travis just was being kinda selfish and doesn't give featured credits to any of the acts that featured on his current record.

He performs... twice! on the song though. It's funny how people are arguing against the credit when Drake gets dragged to hell and back for not crediting a SAMPLE as a feature. Rule's always different for him I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Drake is not credited as an artist for Sicko Mode.on Billboard The same way Kesha is not credited for Right Round The same way Aloe Blac is not credited for Wake me up and JT is not credited for Where's is the Love?

And that’s a pretty standard pattern. They get a pass, we don’t, maybe they were obligated to push it as a single. in order to get the MJ feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sicko Mode will not save his top 10 streak since he is not credited as a performer Nah these were the first posts about it. Technically, it’s not a Drakeless T10 if he has a writing credit and performs two separate songs within Sicko Mode itself. Now, we can play dumb like the people who say Nicki deserves no credit for FEFE because she’s a “feature”. Or we can accept this fact. I would bet Billboard makes note of Drake’s inclusion on SICKOMODE after IMF falls out and ends his streak. No one would be fighting about that because that’s obvious af.

As @Rico Shameless v2 said, ChartsFan randomly made the discussion about that. You need to read. The discussion was about the top 10 being Drakeless, and with SICKOMODE he still exists in the top 10 as a songwriter & he is factually apart of the song as a vocalist even if uncredited.

End of story It does, please stop lying. You definitely aren't a source. per Billboard: Quote Little Big Town's "Better Man" ascends to the top 10 of Billboard's Country Airplaychart (dated Jan. 21), rising 11-10 and increasing by 11 percent to 27.2 million in audience in the week ending Jan. 8, according to Nielsen Music. The advance marks both an achievement for the band and the song's writer, Taylor Swift. Swift earns her milestone 20th Country Airplay top 10 as a writer, and first in more than three years, since her self-written "Red," which peaked at No. 7 in December 2013. 3 Quote ("Emotionless," new on the Hot 100 at No. 8, samples a remix of Mariah Carey's three-week 1991 No. 1 "Emotions," although she is not credited as an artist on "Emotionless." As a co-writer of "Emotionless," via its sample, Carey earns her 25th Hot 100 top 10 as a songwriter.) If you can't understand then you need to email Billboard and complain/ask them for further help.

Do you really not grasp the difference or? We aren’t. Sorry boo. I said Drake exists in the top 10 still as he is a credited songwriter. Therefore the top 10 does have Drake in it in some form. And he is also a vocalist on a song in the top 10, meaning the top 10 has a song with him, just uncredited as a vocalist. Never said he was a credited vocalist in SICKOMODE. For some reason you just made that up. Any other questions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will cancel his almost forty week streak in the top ten. its just s typical Stan trying to mske their fav look better, in a month or two when some other artist does the same thing and it’s not Drake it won’t count and I hype will quote charts that they aren’t credited on. Been there done thst already, Dude, you sound so angry. It's not that serious. Someone said the top 10 will be Drake less, (probably you, too lazy to check). Ihype was simply pointing out that you're wrong. It won't be drake-less, writing credits count to some degree and also vocals. It won't count for his top 10 streak but the the top 10 won't be "Drake less". I feel like you just argue out of boredome or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only point I've emphasized in my posts is that Drake's top 10 streak as a recording artist will come to an end despite Sicko Mode's presence in the top 10. You can say it won't be a "Drake-less top 10" if you want but thats really just switching the narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since he's a songwriter on whatever song it is, don't know or care, then yeah that kind of does count to some degree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
