Drake's career is over.

Question

Kendrick Lamar's hit song, "Not Like Us" is the song of the year. Unfortunately for Drake this has disrupted his entire career. Drake has recently filed a lawsuit against Universal music group. Drake claims that "UMG defamed him by releasing a song that accuses him of being a pedophile, the lawsuit has only drawn more attention to the track." Since the lawsuit, Kendrick Lamar's streams have been up 20% on Apple Music and Spotify. " ...the surge in popularity of Kendrick Lamar’s songs and the backlash against Drake’s legal strategy highlights the unpredictable nature of the music industry’s legal and promotional battles." Though Drake has filled the lawsuit, his reputation is at risk. 

Answer 1

The source you used contains a mix of facts and speculative claims. While Kendrick Lamar's song is indeed highly successful, and Drake has filed a lawsuit, the impact on Drake's career and reputation is more subjective and less verifiable. Always consider multiple sources and the context when evaluating such claims. As there has continously been public speculation on whether or not Kendrick's music actually ended Drake's career or not.

Comments

I wish you would have added some sources for your claims. Specifically when you mentioned that Drake has filed a lawsuit and the public speculation on whether or not Kendrick's music actually ended Drake's career or not. This way you could have separated the facts of the lawsuit from the opinionated interpretation of Drake's reputation. Also do agree with you though on the fact that this claim cannot be answered since it is subjective and opinion-based.

This is a very straight forward fact check that gives just enough information to support that the claim is "exaggerated/misleading". Though, in order to improve it I think that you should have added articles in order to back up the claim that Drake's career is over. You also could have directly quoted some articles or pulled out some bits and pieces that support your claim. For example, quoting an article that shows how Kendrick Lamar's song "Not Like Us" has negatively affected Drakes career would he sufficed or an article that talks about Drake filing a lawsuit against Kendrick Lamar. Overall, your fact check that Drake's career is over lacks some bits and pieces that can make it more informational.
