“I think I’m at the point now where I just wanna, like — I feel like maybe, we talked about this the other day, but I feel like I’m kind of introducing the concept in my mind of a graceful exit,” said the 36-year-old.

Another fan posted, “Greatest run in the history of rap!”

On the flip side, other fans weren’t convinced that Drake will retire from Hip Hop so soon: “Don’t play with me” one fan shared, as another posted, “He’ll be back in a month lol!”

Drake surely has had a great run in the rhyming industry, with many even considering him the G.O.A.T. If the optimal plan’s to stop while you’re ahead, then perhaps it’s the most ideal time for Drizzy to call it quits.
