On the lead single to Nothing Was the Same, Drake delivers a come-up piece about how he “Started from the Bottom“. Thematically, this track embodies the famed underdog narrative, but it was subject to a lot of discussion upon its release—there were debates about how low the “bottom“ had been for Drake.
